Filter by:Chronic bronchitis is a non-allergic, inflammatory disease that is developed because of inflamed bronchial walls, and, is characterized by persistent cough with sputum for 3 months for 2 consecutive years at least. It affects males more than females at the age of 40 years, with increasing incidence as the age progresses. Chronic bronchitis is associated with multiple health-related issues like; dyspnea, reduced lung volumes and capacities, poor quality of life, and physical inactivity. Its clinical manifestations are coped with using the pharmaceutical approach, surgical maneuvers, and pulmonary rehabilitation. In the context of pulmonary rehabilitation, pursed lip breathing and stacked breathing are evident to deal with symptoms of chronic bronchitis and make the individuals lead a physically active and healthy life. In this research study, patients will be enrolled with strict adherence to eligibility criteria and then allocated into two groups by using the convenience sampling technique after having their written informed consent form. The participants will either receive pursed lip breathing technique or a stacked breathing technique, which will be followed by baseline treatment at every session. Both groups will be then subjected to receive intervention that will take a duration of 40 minutes every session, 30 minutes of baseline treatment, and 10 minutes of intervention, for the period of 2 weeks with the frequency of performing the intervention thrice per day. The outcomes will be evaluated by using a modified Borg scale for dyspnea, a peak expiratory flow meter for lung volumes, a pulse oximeter for oxygenation, and EuroQol; 5D-5L for quality of life. Data will be recorded at pre-treatment, on the 1st day, and post-treatment, on the 14th day. The recorded data will be then entered and analyzed using SPSS (Statistical Package of Social Sciences) version 23.
Comparison of Blow Bottle Positive Expiratory pressure(BBPEP)versus acapella on Oxygenation ,peak Expiratory Flow Rate(PEFR)among patient with chronic bronchitis.
The purpose of this clinical trial is to evaluate the acute bronchitis symptom relief effect of Bronpass tab. compared to Erdos capsule, and compare and evaluate the safety.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of azacitidine，venetoclax，and flumatinib in newly diagnosed Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute leukemia and accelerated phase or blast phase chronic myeloid leukemia patients.
This is a retrospective review study to evaluate the histopathological findings post appendectomy
A Multicenter, Randomized, Double-Blind, Parallel, Active-controlled, Phase III Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of AGS Compared to AGU for Acute Bronchitis
This study designed to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of a newly developed sample collection device. Participants will be enrolled and samples will be collected by representative future users of the device. Comparator venous and conventional capillary tubes will be collected by skilled healthcare professionals with phlebotomy experience. Samples will be tested and average differences between the investigational device compared to a marketed comparator will be evaluated. Visual observations will be captured and device safety will be assessed.
Retrospective clinical data review design of all patients admitted to the Tupua Tamasese Meaole Hospital Surgical Unit for AA from January 2015 to December 2016. Exclusion criteria were appendiceal abscess and/or mass, and final diagnosis 'not acute appendicitis'. Age, sex, village, Alvarado Score, Ultrasound Scan Result, surgical management, and histopathology result were the main variables entered into the SPSS statistical software package for analysis.
Acute appendicitis (AA) is a frequent cause of acute abdominal pain in emergency rooms around the world [1]. The lifetime risk of developing AA is estimated to be about 8% [1-3]. The severe acute respiratory syndrome SARS-CoV-2 Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has raised difficult situations for healthcare systems and organizations around the world, with direct and indirect implications for patient care delivery. COVID-19 causes a wide range of clinical symptoms, including fever, dry cough, myalgia, and exhaustion, with pulmonary involvement in many cases. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), The effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on acute appendicitis and surgical care is unknown due to a lack of evidence. To see how appendicitis care has changed as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, this study compares clinical presentation, investigative modalities, treatment procedures, and outcomes before and after the pandemic.
Acute appendicitis is the most common cause of abdominal pain requiring surgery in the emergency department. The whole life acute appendicitis rate is 7%. Only half of the patients with acute appendicitis are presented with typical periumbilical pain following by nausea, vomiting, and the migration of pain to the right lower quadrant. The diagnosis of acute appendicitis is based on the patient's medical history, physical examination, and laboratory findings. The Alvarado scoring system (ASS), recommends discharge, observation, and surgical intervention to patients. However, such scoring systems should not be used as the only method in diagnosis. Increased imaging use in patients with suspected acute appendicitis improved the rate of correct diagnosis. American College of Radiology Appropriateness Criteria (ACR) recommends computerized tomography (CT) as the primary imaging method to confirm the diagnosis of acute appendicitis in adults. However, CT imaging has some disadvantages, such as radiation exposure, undesirable effects associated with the use of contrast agents, and increased workload in the emergency room. The count of immature granulocytes (IGC), which is an indicator of increased activation of the bone marrow, and the percentage of IG (IGP), which is the ratio of IGs to the total white blood cell count, are also has been used differentiation of complicated acute appendicitis from uncomplicated acute appendicitis, and other inflammatory pathologies. Nowadays automatic blood analyzers can easily measure the amount and percentage of IGs simultaneously in a complete blood count test with advances in technology. It is aimed to investigate the utility of IGC and IGP on the prediction of suspected acute appendicitis according to the ASS and its effect on the need for CT scanning.
