Chest trauma remains an issue for health services for both severe and apparently mild trauma management. Severe chest trauma is associated with high mortality and is liable for 25% of mortality in multiple traumas. Moreover, mild trauma is also associated with significant morbidity, especially in patients with preexisting conditions. Thus, whatever the severity, a fast-acting strategy must be organized. In order to improve the prognosis of patients with severe chest trauma, early and continuous application of non-invasive mechanical ventilation (NIV) can indeed reduce the need for intubation and shorten intensive care unit length-of-stay. Among different mechanisms, the early use of positive end-expiratory pressure after chest trauma, when feasible, seems mandatory to optimize oxygenation and improve clinical outcomes. Indeed, interventions aimed at preventing ARDS after chest trauma carry the greatest potential to reduce the substantial morbidity, mortality, and resource utilization associated with this syndrome.
The purpose of this study is to investigate whether patients' age, total burned surface area, wound stage and wound depth determine wound healing response to pulsed electromagnetic therapy in burn patients
In TBI, there is a strong correlation between increased ICP and bad outcome. So, appropriate monitoring can be the gold standard in management of TBI. ICP can be measured by invasive and noninvasive methds. One of these noninvasive methods is bedside measurement of optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) by ocular ultrasonography
Case control study, investigating what hand function and sensory function do patients perform 3-10 years following digital nerve injury and repair. The aim is to investigate if hand function is more limited following digital nerve injury in the thumb, index- and little finger, compared to less unburdened sensory surfaces in the fingers. Secondary aim is to investigate the long term sensory function following digital nerve injury.
The main objective of this interdisciplinary study is to develop an understanding of the molecular imaging features of blast-related mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) in military personnel, while helping to establish assessment tools that may be of use in diagnosis, determining prognosis, and in future therapeutic clinical trials. Additionally, the objective is to evaluate feasibility of [18F]PI-2620 in the assessment TBI.
The purpose of the proposed study is to evaluate the efficacy of dronabinol for postoperative pain after arthroscopic surgery of the knee. The investigators hypothesize that dronabinol will relieve pain, reduce opioid consumption and will result in few negative side effects. If this pilot study shows promising results the investigators will expand the trial to include additional arthroscopic surgeries (hip, shoulder) and other types of orthopaedic surgery.
The aim of the study is to evaluate the effect of application of Alvogyl versus hyaluronic acid in decreasing postoperative pain and promoting healing in the palatal wound following the free gingival graft procedure
The FIFA 11 + is an injury prevention that has shown to improve physical performance and prevent injuries in male futsal players, however, this injury prevention program has not been tested in female futsal players. The investigators aim to test the effects of the FIFA 11 + program on physical performance and injury prevention in female futsal players.
The aim of this research is to find out the factors associated with musculoskeletal injuries among office workers and also determine whether Functional Movement Screen (FMS) can predict musculoskeletal injuries or not? Prospective Cohort study will be done at the offices of Rawalpindi. The sample size is 208. Study duration will be of 6 months. Non probability Purposive Sampling will be used. Tools used in the study are FMS, Fat Caliper, Weighing machine & Inches tape. Data will be analyzed through SPSS 23.
