Filter by:The recent pandemic of the COVID-19 disease has caused a national health emergency due to its severity and the clinical and social consequences of the disease. Crude mortality in Spain is 9.2%. However, the causes of death of critically ill patients with COVID-19 are unknown. To date, no treatment has been shown to be effective for the 2019-SARS-CoV-2 infection is recommended. Supportive care and isolation are recommended for infected individuals. Currently, observational studies on critically ill patients with COVID-19 have small samples. The objective is to evaluate the incidence of mortality and morbidity in COVID-19 disease in this group of critically ill patients, as well as the risk factors associated with mortality and the effectiveness of the treatments used compassionately.
The World Health Organization (WHO) has recently declared coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) a public health emergency of international concern. Egypt is one of the countries that has been infected by Covid-19. The characteristics of clinical presentation, laboratory and radiological data are not yet studied. Outcomes of covid-19 in Egypt also have not been described yet.
In the ProPEL study the effect of a protocol designed for elderly patients about to undergo emergency abdominal surgery will be investigated. The protocol addresses issues of both frailty and ceiling-of -care decisions.
The outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) in China has been declared a public health emergency of international concern. Despite lower mortality rate, SARS-CoV-2 has killed more people than SARS and MERS and the number keeps growing. Epidemic studies have been well described clinical features of patients with COVID-19, with the disease severity being an independent predictor of poor outcome. However, there is still no research investigating the prognostic factors of patients with COVID-19.
Daptomycin ,is the first approved member of a new class of antimicrobials, the cyclic lipopeptides, and presents selective action against gram-positive bacteria, including methicillin- and vancomycin-resistant strains,disrupting the transfer of amino acids in the cell membrane, thus hindering the biosynthesis of bacterial cell cell wall peptide polysaccharide, changing the properties of cytoplasm membrane, can destroy bacterial cell membrane function in many ways, and quickly kill gram-positive bacteria. Because of its unique chemical structure and sterilization mechanism, bacteria rarely develop resistance to daptomycin. Daptomycin can be reversibility combined with human plasma protein (mainly serum albumin) and metabolized mainly through the kidneys. There is still a lot of controversy about the application of daptomycin in patients with severe illness. Although studies suggest that daptomycin has less damage to kidney function than vancomycin, the effect of daptomycin on kidney function in severely ill patients is not yet clear, and more clinical studies are needed to explore their relationship. In addition, it is not clear whether the physiological pathology of specific populations such as sepsis/infectious shock, acute kidney injury, (AKI), hypoproteinemia, and renal replacement treatment affects the pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics of Daptomycin. By exploring the application of daptomycin in patients with severe illness, this study explores the effects of special pathological physiological states such as sepsis/infectious shock and hypoproteinemia on daptomycin PK/PD, as well as the effects of different hemoglobin concentrations of daptomycin on the outcome of kidney function.
A randomised controlled trial study consisting of two-group pretest-post-test.
The aim of this study is to assess the use of ASPECTS and stroke biomarkers to predict the outcome and cognitive impairment in acute ischemic stroke.
Cardiovascular treatments should not be interrupted following hospital admission, in order to decrease patients' morbidity. However, following ICU admission, such treatments are frequently interrupted and/or modified. The question of the study is to investigate wether such treatment interruption might be responsible for prognosis modifications.
This is a retrospective review of all patients who underwent PFR for either bipolar hemiarthroplasty or total hip replacement
Sudden cardiac arrests is one of the most frequent causes of death. In Switzerland every year 8000-10.000 people suffer from a cardiac arrest. The EuReCa ONE Study showed regional differences in incidence and chances of survival after cardiac arrests in Europe. The current European Resuscitation Council (ERC) resuscitation guidelines 2015 recommend extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) as treatment option for therapy refractory out-of-hospital cardiac arrests (OHCA). ECMO used under cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is called eCPR (extracorporeal CPR). In the year 2018 eCPR is started to be used in Bern, Switzerland. This study investigates retrospectively the survival and neurologic outcome of patients after OHCA in the region of Bern, Switzerland from 2015-2018. The data will be used as baseline for a prospective evaluation of eCPR cases. The prospective Evaluation of e CPR will last from 2018 - 2022.
