Filter by:The aim of this study is to present results on the effect of lightened and musical baby mobile on sleep quality in children hospitalized in the pediatric emergency clinic. In the randomized controlled study, 124 children hospitalized in the pediatric emergency clinic of a public hospital and appropriate the inclusion criteria were equally divided into 2 groups. The lightened and musical baby mobile was used during the night's sleep in the patient's room of the children in the first group (intervention group). The children in the second group (control group) did not use a lightened and musical baby mobile. The sleep quality of the children in the 2 groups was evaluated with the Child's Sleep Quality Evaluation Form (CSQEF).
With lockdown, Emergency Departments (ED) visits decrease, principally for visits unrelated with Covid-19. In this study, the investigators aimed to find a correlation between ED visits and incidence rate of Covid-19 in a French metropolis.
ED-VeRT will enroll up to 125 adult emergency department (ED) patients presenting with a chief complaint of dizziness or vertigo to collect longitudinal outcomes over 3 months of follow-up. This will include 50 patients who were evaluated by an ED physical therapist (ie, vestibular rehabilitation) during their ED visit and 50 patients who received usual care. The aims of this trial are to: (1) obtain initial estimates of participant recruitment and retention, intra-cluster correlation, and between-group outcome differences that will inform sample size calculation for a future randomized clinical trial, and (2) assess feasibility and fidelity of a clinical classification protocol for undifferentiated dizziness among patients receiving ED vestibular rehabilitation.
Video streaming as an additional tool to telephone was introduced in some Norwegian emergency medical call centers during the spring of 2020. This allows the dispatchers to communicate with the caller through video streaming during emergency calls. Some studies are conducted on this use of video streaming, but further research is needed. In this study, the investigators have chosen to focus on potential effect from video streaming on bystander first aid for injured patients. The investigators have knowledge from preliminary results that dispatchers often find video streaming useful in emergency calls regarding injuries. This study will investigate whether the use of video streaming might have an effect on the recognition rate by dispatchers on the need for bystander first aid for injured patients. In addition, the investigators will investigate whether video-instructions from dispatcher can improve bystander first aid quality. The investigators will be using data collected by ambulance personnel including patients with injuries, as well as data from EMCC journals and audio logs.
Peripheral intravenous line insertion is the most commonly performed invasive procedure in the emergency department (ED). The research hypothesis is that a biplane sonographic approach (i.e., an out-of-plane and in-plane view) might be superior to a mono-plane approach (i.e., an out-of-plane or in-plane view) obtaining a peripheral vascular access among difficult patients admitted to the ED
The main objective will be to evaluate the type of care performed and the main reasons for consulting patients for an odontological emergency in order to better adapt to the flow and expectations of patients.
Pneumonia in children can be caused by different types of germs such as bacteria and viruses. Giving antibiotics to children with bacterial bugs is helpful while giving antibiotics to children with viruses will not help them. Unfortunately, it is difficult for doctors to tell when a child's pneumonia is caused by bacteria or viruses. Most young children are given antibiotics even though it doesn't help them. Our study wants to test a new way to care for children with pneumonia so that only children who will benefit from antibiotics will receive them. The study will use a combination of the child's symptoms, x-rays results, and lab testing to better determine if a child needs antibiotics. The study team will then review the testing results and follow up with the patient and their family in the following days to ensure that the child is improving. PIONEER will test a novel care pathway for treating non-severe pediatric pneumonia with the goal of decreasing antibiotic prescription while maintaining equal clinical outcomes to standard care.
The project aims at designing a machine learning solution able to recognize characteristics signals patterns of brain damages in full term babies born within a context of Hypoxic Ischemic Encephalopathy (HIE)
Anaphylaxis is a severe life-threatening reaction following exposure to an antigen. Its incidence is progressively increasing in the general population over years, especially among children. The diagnosis can be difficult, and recommendations for follow up and prescription for an emergency kit are rarely provided after emergency visit. The Investigators will evaluate the management of pediatric anaphylaxis and clinical signs of allergy in the pediatric emergency department of Montpellier University Hospital
