Filter by:Perioperatively, patients experience an unnecessarily high level of side effects associated with their treatment. These side effects include nausea, severe pain, anxiety, and stress. Moreover, many patients develop postoperative delirium (POD) and neurocognitive dysfunctions, often resulting in long-term cognitive impairment, decreased quality of life, and increased mortality. However, physicians, nurses and their institutions do not receive structured feedback regarding these aspects of each patient's well-being. They may therefore be unable to engage in the essential cause-and-effect learning necessary to evaluate and consecutively reduce such side effects. Effective guidelines conform prevention is the proven key to shielding our patients from adverse Outcomes. The Safe Brain Initiative's high-quality routine data-for-action is a sword and accelerator for moving towards patient-centred, precision care. Thus, establishing a foundation for value-based and patient-centred healthcare development. However, a turnkey real-world solution is challenging to develop and implement and requires substantial resources. As a result, such solutions are usually beyond the scope of a single institution. The SBI platform provides high-quality, real-world data to bridge this gap. It allows monitoring and in-depth analysis of cause and effect in the day-to-day routine of individuals, departments, and institutions. The SBI's approach is continuously improved and updated. An organization called the SBI Global Society oversees the quality and precision of science through experts in the field. At SBI Hospitals and Flagship centres, Masterclasses are conducted and can be attended alongside clinical immersions. SBI Solutions manages, develops, and provides technical and service support for the Safe Brain Initiative. Its service guarantees the professional and GDPR conform management of data handling and storage as well as the user-friendly functionality of the SBI-Dashboard solutions.
In pediatric patients, the accuracy of body temperature measured with an esophageal temperature probe placed through the gastric lumen of the supraglottic airway device is investigated.
This study is investigating the efficacy of CORE™ devices in calculating core body temperature in athletes under varying environmental conditions.
It is unclear whether routine addition of intra-operative forced-air warming in addition to warmed intravenous fluids during cesarean delivery under spinal anesthesia is beneficial. In this single-center randomized trial, we aim to test the primary null hypothesis that our current protocol of warmed intravenous fluids is similar to a combination of warmed intravenous fluids with intra-operative lower-body forced-air warming to maintain maternal temperature after cesarean delivery under spinal anesthesia. We also aim to assess the rate of maternal shivering during and after the procedure between the two groups, the maternal thermal comfort score, neonatal Apgar scores and umbilical pH levels. If we demonstrate no clinically important difference between the two interventions, clinicians will be able to continue our current protocol of warmed intravenous fluids only during cesarean delivery.
This study aims to determine effect of body temperature changes during total knee arthroplasty surgery on early postoperative pressure sore formation.
In animal models of thermoregulation (how the body regulates heat), heat-sensitive nerve cells that help regulate body temperature have been identified throughout the body (e.g. in muscles, viscera, and blood vessels, among others); however, in human thermoregulation models, only two locations are generally recognized: the core (brain) and the skin. The limited number of recognized locations in humans are likely due to the difficulty in testing these locations in humans, as these locations are typically identified in animals by sedating them, surgically opening them up, stimulating the area of interest with a hot or cold probe, and then measure thermoregulatory responses. Based on the literature, the researchers believe that by having participants run at the same energy expenditure but at three different inclines (uphill, downhill and flat) on a treadmill, the researchers can independently alter muscle temperature, while keeping core and skin temperature the same. Additionally, recent studies have suggested that temperature has a greater role at regulating blood flow through muscle tissue than previously recognized. Because of this, the researchers aim to have a second arm of the study to see whether these differences in muscle temperature result in differences in post-exercise blood flow to the muscle. Finally, downhill running is often used to study exercise-induced muscle damage, due to the greater breaking forces compared to flat land running. Because of this, a third study aim will be to examine the association between fitness level, body morphology and sex on exercise-induced muscle damage.
Cryotherapy after surgery is widely utilised and has numerous practical applications for post-operative rehabili-tation. Previous research has suggested that during cold therapy, the skin temperature of the knee should be reduced to 10-15°C to maximise the therapeutic benefits of cooling while avoiding the risk of cold injuries such as nerve damage and frostbite (Wilke and Weiner, 2003; Bleakley, McDonough and MacAuley, 2004). The degree to which the pressure applied by a cuff to the knee has an effect on the achieved skin temperature of the treatment area is unknown. The aim of this study is to determine the effect that different pressure settings have on skin temperature around the knee during a 30-minute cryocompression treatment.
To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of hypothermia risk prediction combined with active warming management to reduce intraoperative hypothermia in elderly patients undergoing elective general anesthesia, improve the quality of anesthesia management, and enhance patients' awareness of the work of anesthesiologists.
Cryotherapy after surgery is widely utilised and has numerous practical applications for post-operative rehabilitation. Previous research has suggested that during cold therapy, the skin temperature of the knee should be reduced to 10-15°C to maximise the therapeutic benefits of cooling while avoiding the risk of cold injuries such as nerve damage and frostbite (Wilke and Weiner, 2003; Bleakley, McDonough and MacAuley, 2004). However, a recent study noted that where cryocompression devices have previously been used to reduce the skin temperature <10°C, no complications relating to the device have been reported, suggesting that the risk to the user at these lower temperatures is minimal (Bellon et al., 2019). The temperature range at which a cryocompression device should be set in order to achieve a skin temperature within the therapeutic range of 10-15°C is unknown. Furthermore, there is evidence to suggest that the temperature setting of the device does not equal that to which the skin is reduced (Selfe et al., 2009). Therefore, it is not sufficient to assume that the temperature setting of a cryocompression device accurately reflects skin temperature. Modern cryotherapy devices often consist of some sort of cuff that can be wrapped around the knee, with a connecting tube to a central unit that supplies and circulates ice-water to and from the cuff in order to cool the intended body part. Such devices offer differing levels of control over the temperature of the ice-water as it leaves the central unit, but nothing is known about how this correlates to the skin temperatures that are achieved during a cryotherapy treatment. The aim of this study is to determine the ability of five different cryocompression.devices to effectively lower the skin temperature of the treatment area to within the therapeutic range.
The purpose of the project is to estimate the air temperature in the lungs after a change from room temperature (25℃) to an environment with a constant temperature of 88-92℃ in resp. lung-healthy persons and persons with bronchiectasis.
