Filter by:The present study was planned to provide clinical data on the impact of acute and critically ill patients in Internal Medicine Unit activity and economic data enabling to quantify the relative cost of acute patients management during ordinary hospitalization. In these critically ill complex patients the vital parameters continuous monitoring could help in improving the quality of care. Therefore, the study will check how the wireless continuous monitoring in acute selected patients is able to reduce major complications improving the patient's outcome and the quality of care and reducing costs compared to traditional monitoring performed at regular intervals by the nursing staff.
The principal aim is to assess if a simple test, the time it takes to walk 10 meters for a patient about to be discharged after a hospital stay for an acute illness, is related to the risk of readmission.
The benefit of current stem cell transplantation therapy for myocardial infarction is limited by low survival rate for stem cell. The purpose of this study is to test whether intensive Atorvastatin therapy can improve the outcome of patients with impaired left ventricle function after acute myocardial infarction who underwent intracoronary transfer of autologous bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells.
Objectives: 1. To examine the ability of ACLR patients at discharge from rehabilitation to perform a single-hop for distance. 2. To examine isometric muscle strength of ACLR patients at discharge from rehabilitation. 3. To examine ACLR patients' self-reported knee function at discharge from rehabilitation 4. To assess the psychological factors for ACLR patients at discharge from rehabilitation. 5. To correlate single-hop for distance with self-reported knee function, strength and psychological factors for ACLR patients at discharge from rehabilitation to discover whether any of these factors can predict the others.
Detection of metabolic state of women with polycystic ovary using NA-Nose.
The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy and safety of mFOLFOX, mFOLFIRI and FOLFPTX as first-line treatment in AGC or EGJA.
1. Compare the efficacy of R-EPOCH and R-CHOP regimen for patients with AIDS associated CD20+ diffuse large B lymphoma; 2. Compare the safety of R-EPOCH and R-CHOP regimen for patients with AIDS associated CD20+ diffuse large B lymphoma.
Coronary heart disease (CHD) is the leading global cause of human death. Over the past decade, level of overall diagnosis and treatment of CHD has been greatly improved due to the progression of clinical research and development of technical means and the mortality of CHD has decreased by nearly 50% in western countries [1]. However, there are surveys shows that with the improvement of living standards and changes in lifestyle, the incidence of CHD is still rising in China and other developing countries, and the prevalence trend is obvious younger [2]. The so-called young CHD, generally refers to the age at onset of CHD is less than or equal to 45 years. Compared with other age-group CHD, young CHD has the following characteristics: 1. Genetic factors have a stronger effect at younger onset ages, and incidence with obvious familial aggregation[3]; 2 Often with the onset of acute coronary syndrome, presumably may be associated with strong inflammation of the lesion; 3. Two extremes often exists in coronary lesions: mild or no atherosclerosis and severe triple-vessel disease; 4 Rapid progression of atherosclerotic lesions, stent restenosis in the same site repeated after interventional treatment, rapid progress of lesion in non-intervention site;5 Surgical mortality is low in regardless of interventional therapy or bypass surgery, but the rate of revascularization is significantly higher in following 10 years.
The aims of the study are to compare the effectiveness and postoperative outcomes of liposomal bupivacaine vs plain bupivacaine following video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery. The investigators' hypothesis is that liposomal bupivacaine will decrease the postoperative pain and will be associated with more favorable postoperative outcomes when compared to plain bupivacaine following video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery.
Acute Kidney Injury is common in critically ill children and is associated with high morbidity and mortality in pediatric intensive care unit. The serum creatinine is still a gold standard test for diagnosis of AKI, but it rises after 1 to 3 days of injury . However, Neutrophil Gelatinase-Associated Lipocalcin (NGAL) is an emerging biomarker in identifying AKI at an early stages, which may in future help us in promptly instituting reno-protective interventions like avoidance of nephrotoxic exposure and contrast agents, maintenance of euvolemia and perfusion pressure which will not only preventing kidney from further failing, decrease the use of very expensive and complicated renal supportive therapy like continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) as well as in decreasing morbidity and mortality related to AKI.
