Filter by:The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of using hydrocolloid tapes in preventing pressure injuries on the nose and columella regions caused by non-invasive mechanical ventilation (NIMV) in preterm infants.
This retrospective cohort study of patients classified by the blood glucose level after reperfusion in liver transplantation repicient. Our object is to investigate whether controlling BG levels within the optimal range during neohepatic phase is associated with a reduction of AKI incidence. Furthermore, severe AKI, chronic kidney disease (CKD), major adverse cardiac event (MACE) and mortality were also investigated.
Introduction: This study was to compare the differences in the incidence, grade, and time of surgery-related pressure injuries between the two interventions; and describe the locations of surgery-related pressure injuries between the two interventions. Methods: This study adopted a true experimental research design with a convenience sampling method from the operating rooms of a teaching hospital in a northern region. The experimental group was randomly assigned by block to receive intervention A (full bed silicone mattress plus other measures), and the control group received intervention B (full bed silicone mattress plus usual care). Measurements include basic personal attributes, risk factors, grade, time, and location of occurrence related to surgery-related pressure injuries.
Test the wound healing properties of the product as well as the cooling effect and tolerability of a wound care gel.
Severe traumatic brain injury with a decrease in cerebral oximetry is associated with multiple impaired systemic microcirculations, more morbidities, and a higher mortality rate. When using the brain as an index organ, interventions to improve brain oxygen delivery may have systemic benefits for these patients.
This was a multicenter randomized controlled study of 98 severe Traumatic Brain Injury patients with tracheostomy. Patients enrolled were divided randomly into the observation group with Intermittent Oro-esophageal Tube Feeding (n=50) or the control group with Nasogastric tube feeding (n=48) for enteral nutrition support, respectively. Nutritional status, complications, decannulation of tracheostomy tubes and level of consciousness on day 1 and day 28 were recorded and compared.
This study aimed to assess the longitudinal changes in triceps surae muscle-tendon architecture to an ultra distance trail running. Experienced trail runners (N=55, 78% men, age: 45.2 [13.5] years) participated in a 156-km trail run (6000m climbing) consisting in six 26-km laps. The resting architectural properties of triceps surae muscle-tendon were measured using ultrasound imaging for Achille tendon cross-sectional area (AT CSA), medial gastrocnemius muscle pennation angle, thickness, length and fiber length. Measurements were performed the day before the race (Baseline), at 52-km (T1), at 104-km (T2), at 156-km (T3) and 12 hours after the race (H12).
The authors aimed to determine the risk factors associated with postoperative acute kidney injury in patients undergoing total joint arthroplasty.
The goal of this open-label, post-market clinical follow-up study is to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of HealiAid Collagen Wound Dressing in patients classified into different types of wounds: venous ulcers, bedsores, diabetic foot wounds and burn wounds. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. The wound healing which was defined as the percentage of area change. 2. The duration of wound healing. 3. The granulation tissue growth of the wound. 4. The wound exudate. 5. Safety Indicators of which incidences after treatment. HealiAid will be applied to eligible subjects who will later be followed up for 12 weeks.
A prospective cohort study with 9 months follow up was carried out in 2017-2018. Boxers of both sexes 18 years and older from all 7 boxing clubs in Iceland were invited to participate in the study. Participants filled out a questionnaire on previous injuries during boxing training and competition and were evaluated on the Sport Concussion Assessment Tool 3rd edition (SCAT3). Exposure at training and competition was measured and any injuries sustained during the study period were recorded via text messages and phone calls every 2 weeks.
