Filter by:Interventional study designed for the evaluation of characters and the outcome of scorpion sting patients will admit to Sohag University Hospitals in 2 randomized groups. The first group will receive scorpion antivenom only whether by the intravenous or the intramuscular route of administration. The second group will receive a combination of prazosin plus scorpion antivenom whether by the intravenous or the intramuscular route of administration. Both groups will receive proper first aid and supportive treatment
This study investigated the efficacy of novel approach spray skin for extensive severe burns treatment.
This is a mixed-methods program evaluation from a health systems and policy perspective, involving (i) stakeholder analysis, (ii) policy-implementation gap analysis, and (iii) comparative country case studies. This study aims to understand how national oxygen strategies achieve impact at national, and subnational level, across country contexts, at what cost. The the investigators seek to: 1. Involve policymakers, implementers (including private sector), and medical oxygen users in identifying challenges and understanding potential solutions to medical oxygen access; 2. Generate new data on how medical oxygen systems work and can be improved from multiple perspectives; 3. Draw lessons on medical oxygen that can directly inform national and global practice and policy. This study will be conducted in 6 of the 9 countries participating in the Clinton Health Access Initiative (CHAI) led Medical Oxygen Implementation (MOXY) program (Uganda, Nigeria, Rwanda, Liberia, Lao PDR, Cambodia). Key informants will be selected representing government, non-governmental agencies, professional associations, private sector, and civil society. This study will be completed over 4 years, with timelines varying between country study sites.
REAL-MOXY is a set of 5 mixed methods studies designed to understand how oxygen and pulse oximetry are used (or not used) at a facility level, to identify opportunities and barriers for strengthening oxygen systems for beneficiaries, users and managers.
Postoperative complications and mortality in patients with COVID-19 Omicron infection who have undergone specialized thoracic surgery are scarce. Subsequently, the patient cohort was divided into two groups for comparative analysis: Group 1 (G1), which comprised patients who acquired nosocomial omicron infection after surgery, and Group 2 (G2), which comprised patients who remained uninfected with omicron during their hospitalization period. Propensity score matching (PSM) analysis was conducted using the PSMATCH function in SPSS 27 to assess the incidence of perioperative complications and mortality rates between both groups.
The goal of this clinical trial study is to evaluate the clinical effectiveness of respiratory critical care nurses (RCCN) in improving outcomes for critically ill patients who require admission to the intensive care units (ICUs). The main question it aims to answer is: What is the effect of the respiratory critical care nurse in improving outcomes for critically ill patients? Participants will consist of critically ill patients who will be randomly allocated in a 1:1 ratio into two groups: the intervention group, who will receive specialized respiratory care from RCCN from the time they arrive in the emergency room until their discharge from the hospital, and the control group, who will receive only routine care.
The aim of this study is to find the utility of red cell distribution width and lactate/albumin ratio as prognostic markers in sepsis and septic shock patients.
Despite the recommendations to avoid using corticosteroids systematically for hospitalized coronavirus disease of 2019 (COVID-19) patients, healthcare professionals used personalized treatments, including corticosteroids, as adjuncts to treat their patients due to their limited access to treatment options. This study aims to evaluate the use of corticosteroids among hospitalized COVID-19 patients with all-cause mortality as the primary outcome and to assess the predictors of all-cause mortality associated with the characteristics of the patients and the corticosteroid regimens adopted.
Venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) support is a lifesaving tool used to treat cardiogenic shock, acute heart failure, or extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation(CPR). However, its use is associated with significant complications, including mortality. We aim to conduct a retrospective observational study of all patients at Heart Hospital who required VA-ECMO support due to cardiogenic shock during 1/06/2016 and 1/06/2022 to report the incidence of in-hospital mortality among patients who required VA-ECMO along with the predictors of mortality. Data will be collected to identify baseline characteristics and outcomes including clinical variables predictive of poor outcomes.
In heart failure patients, neuropsychological disorders have been prospectively linked to frequent hospitalizations, recurrent cardiac events, and mortality. Cognitive dysfunction is also a frequent comorbidity in heart failure (HF) patients. The benefit of cardiac rehabilitation between patients with cognitive dysfunction and patients without cognitive dysfunction is unknown. Investigators hypothesize that patients with cognitive dysfunction benefit more from cardiac rehabilitation programs than patients without cognitive dysfunction.
