Filter by:This study aimed to investigate the effect of external chest wall fixator on patients' pain level, complication development and hospital stay in patients with rib fractures.Patients who were admitted due to trauma and had serial rib fractures were evaluated. Standard treatment was applied to the control group. External chest wall fixator was applied to the case group in standard treatment. Pain levels of the patients, development of complications and duration of hospitalization were recorded.
This research is a randomized controlled study that will be conducted in an online environment. The study comprises five stages. The first stage, PREPARATION, involves obtaining ethical approval and permissions from universities, preparing data collection tools, and identifying scholarship recipients. The second stage is the development of the MOBILE AND WEB-BASED application. The third stage is the SITUATION ASSESSMENT stage. In this stage, the post-earthquake trauma level, coping skill level, emotional eating levels, and the status of healthy lifestyle behavior of students enrolled in the Nursing Departments of firat University, Osmaniye Korkut Ata University, and Ankara University will be determined using one of the quantitative data collection tools, PETLDS (Objectives 1, 2, 3, and 4). The fourth stage is the INTERVENTION stage, where the prepared training and applications will be implemented within the program (Objectives 5, 6, 7, and 8). The fifth stage is the EVALUATION stage, involving the collection of final test data and analysis.
The spleen is often injured when the body sustains trauma. This leads to bleeding. The bleeding can be stopped by a big operation cutting open the belly or a small hole in your groin where a blood vessel can be accessed and through which the bleeding can be stopped. We do not know what types of injuries it is best to use this procedure. We do not know why we do not use the smaller technique in some instances. We also do not know exactly which of a number of ways to stop the bleeding could be better. We have a big data set in the trauma and audit research network (TARN) which we would like to use to help answer these questions and design further studies to better answer the questions. Adding a few other pieces of data, we are able to answer key questions into how the spleen will best be treated in trauma.
The RADAR-Canada trial is a pilot RCT undertaken to assess the acceptability of, compliance with, and biologic consequences of a deresuscitation protocol designed to expedite the removal of excess interstitial fluid in patients who remain in a positive fluid balance following admission to an intensive care unit (ICU).
The purpose of this study is to investigate justice-involved Black/African American female adolescents' (JI BAFAs; N=35) self-reported outcomes: stress, posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), recidivism, etc., as well as their parents/caregivers' (P/Cs; N=35) stress and pre- and post- intervention results along with their views of an adapted intervention.
There is a controversy regarding the roles of the Normal saline and Tap water in irrigation of the wound. It has been suggested that antiseptic solution including normal saline has cytotoxic effect while tap water damages the fibroblast. There are no high level evidence to support one type of solution over other, systematic review have found no difference in wound infection between irrigation with normal saline vs tap water. There are ten randomized controlled trial comparing tap water with normal saline for irrigating wound published between 1992 to 2016. These RCT are analyzed in three systemic review and meta-analysis published on 2016, 2019, 2022, which showed that tap water and normal saline has no difference in terms of infection rate. The infection rate observed in various studies ranges from 0-11.5% in normal saline group and 0-12.6% in tap water group with no statistically significant difference.
The goal of this observational study is to investigate the occurrence of hypoxemia (an abnormally low concentration of oxygen in the blood) in trauma patients within the first 24 hours of hospital admission following arrival to a trauma center. The main questions the study aims to answer are: - Do trauma patients experience hypoxemia during the initial 24 hours of hospital admission following trauma? - What is the daily distribution of potential hypoxemic episodes? The investigators expect that hypoxemic episodes will be more frequent during the night (20.00-07.59) than during the day (08.00-19.59) An additional pulse oximeter will be attached to the participants, which measures oxygen saturation in the blood during the first 24 hours of hospital admission after trauma.
The proposed PROACT study will test the effectiveness of a mental health intervention (psychotherapy) for multiple common mental health conditions (depressive, anxiety and trauma symptoms) among adolescents and youth with HIV in Kenya. The study will also evaluate key factors for successful intervention implementation and conduct an economic evaluation to inform future intervention scale-up.
The aim of the study is to compare emergency orthopedic trauma admissions between the pre-pandemic period and the pandemic period and to detect changes in orthopedic trauma epidemiology.
The proposed study is a prospective, observational, investigator and patient blinded study comparing the results of blood volume measurement using the FDA-cleared Daxor BVA-100 device to the Daxor BVA-200 device. Data from this study may be pooled with data from studies with similar design conducted at other sites, for the purposes of an FDA medical device submission.
