Filter by:This study aims to report mortality and neurological outcome 180 days after drowning incident in patients with accidental hypothermia vs normothermia following drowning-related OHCA in Denmark during a six-year period from 2016-2021.
The research was carried out to determine the effect of baby warmer swaddle, which has a heating system used after the birth of preterm babies, on the development of hypothermia. Design: Randomized controlled clinical trial Setting: The research was carried out in the NICU of a training and research hospital in Istanbul. Method: A total of 65 babies between 32-37 weeks of gestation were included in the study. In accordance with the routine procedure of the clinic, preterm babies wrapped in polyethylene bags after birth formed the control group (n=33), while babies wrapped in polyethylene bags and placed in a swaddle with a heating system formed the experimental group (n=32).
Rivaroxaban, a non-vitamin K oral anticoagulants, is increasingly used to prevent stroke in patients with atrium fibrillation. It has previously been demonstrated that a point-of-care coagulation instrument (ROTEM) can detect the effects of rivaroxaban. Further, the ROTEM instrument can also detect the effects of hypothermia and acidosis. Given that trauma induced coagulopathy is enhanced by both hypothermia, acidosis and rivaroxaban, the investigators want to investigate any synergistic effects between hypothermia or acidosis and rivaroxaban. In an attempt to do so the investigators designed the current experimental study with the purpose to investigate the effects of rivaroxaban together with hypothermia or acidosis using the ROTEM assay EXTEM. The hypothesis is that a synergistic prolongation of hypothermia or acidosis and rivaroxaban can be detected in the initiation of clot formation demonstrated in the primary outcome variable, clotting time of the ROTEM assay EXTEM. Secondary outcome variables include direct effect on clotting time and direct and synergistic effects on clot formation time and alfa angle of hypothermia and acidosis detected in the ROTEM assay EXTEM.
Studying the effect of passive versus Blanket roll III modality of therapeutic hypothermia (TH)on myocardial function of asphyxiated neonates through using tissue Doppler (TD).
"Severe neonatal jaundice and acute bilirubin encephalopathy are a major cause of death and disability among newborns in LMICs. Filtered sunlight phototherapy (FSPT) was developed, tested and shown to be safe and efficacious in the treatment of jaundice, because effective electric-powered conventional phototherapy is often unavailable10,11. However, FSPT currently requires at least hourly temperature monitoring by healthcare providers (HCPs) because infants receiving FSPT are prone to both hypothermia and hyperthermia. 20 years ago, a liquid crystal thermometer, ThermospotTM (Maternova, Providence, RI) was developed primarily for use in LMICs. It was designed to detect hypothermia and is most sensitive in cold infants and not as sensitive as needed for detecting hyperthermia or fever. The purpose of this pilot study is to determine the accuracy and useability of this LCTD for a wider spectrum of temperatures when used in a large group of infants in a high-income country. If the device performs well in this study, we plan to study it in a low- and middle-income country in Africa."
After dividing the patients into two groups, sedation is performed with propofol and remimazolam, respectively, after spinal anesthesia. Compare the patient's body temperature change after surgery.
Literature establishes that warming with a heated blanket before and during the operation is effective in the prevention of perioperative hypothermia, both in general anesthesia as well as spinal anesthesia. However, the trials have still not presented us with objective protocols to standardize this routine in the surgical centers. The study aims to assess the adoption and reproduction of the implementation of the warning device by the nursing team immediately after the patient's entrance in the operating room, even before the entrance of the anesthesiologist.
This study aims to determine effect of body temperature changes during total knee arthroplasty surgery on early postoperative pressure sore formation.
The incidence of postanesthetic shivering (PAS) after general anesthesia is affected by the anesthesia maintenance agents. This study compared the effect of remimazolam with sevoflurane on PAS in patients with laparoscopic gynecologic surgery under general anesthesia.
End-ischemic hypothermic oxygenated machine perfusion (HOPE) of human donor livers mitigates ischemia-reperfusion injury, resulting in a reduction of post-reperfusion syndrome, early allograft dysfunction and biliary complications, when compared with static cold storage. According to IDEAL-D (Idea, Development, Exploration, Assessment, Long term study-Framework for Devices), with several published randomized controlled trials on short-to-medium term outcomes, scientific evidence for HOPE has currently reached stage 3. Assessment of long-term outcomes after HOPE preservation based on real-world data (i.e., IDEAL-D stage 4) is currently still lacking. Therefore, we aim to conduct an international, multi-center, retrospective, observational cohort study to assess long-term outcomes after transplantation of donor livers preserved by hypothermic oxygenated machine perfusion (HOPE).
