Researchers are studying the behaviors in teachers of invasive bedside procedures to improve the safety of invasive bedside procedure in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU).
Patients with cirrhosis are frequently hospitalized and often undergo procedures. Knowledge surrounding bleeding risk is sparse and practice patterns vary across centers in regards to bleeding prophylaxis. The goal of this study to is to obtain more knowledge regarding risk factors for procedural related bleeding in patients with cirrhosis and to develop a predictive model to risk stratify patients before undergoing procedures. Through collaboration from centers across the world this study should provide information on prevalence of bleeding and variation in practice patterns for prophylaxis.
Objective: Needle-related procedures (venipuncture, vaccine injections) are the most common source of pain and fear, and generally experienced in childhood for the first time. This study was designed to determine the effects of watching cartoon films on non-VR and VR virtual reality on pain and fear during venipuncture in school-age children and to compare these two methods. Method: This randomized controlled trial study was conducted on 120 school-age children (7 -12 years of age) with pain and fear of venipuncture. The children were randomized according to their arrival in the biochemistry laboratory; the first, second, and third children were assigned VR distraction group with a headset (n=40), non-VR distraction group on a tablet computer screen (n=40) and no distraction group (n=40), respectively. The data collection was carried out using the children identification form, Wong-Baker FACES Pain Rating Scale evaluating the pain and Childrens' Fear Scale evaluating the fear. The outcomes reported by the children, parent, and observer.
Background: The AccuVein AV300 device helps in venepuncture and intravenous (IV) cannulation. It uses infrared light that can be absorbed by the blood hemoglobin so that veins location is clearly viewed on the skin's surface. Objectives: To assess the effectiveness of the AV300 device over the standard technique in increasing the first-time success rate (SR) for pediatric patients who needed IV cannulation. Methods: This was a prospective cross study of patients aged 0-18 years scheduled for surgery or examination under anesthesia but without having an existing IV access and after providing consent form. Patients were randomized into two groups; cannulation with AV300 or standard insertion performed by experienced pediatric anesthesiologists and residents under training.
