Abstract
The aim of this research was the effectiveness of respiratory therapy in infants with respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) who are ventilated by correcting the oxygen status and parameter optimization of ventilation by determining the oxygen saturation in the brain by transcranial cerebral oximetry (TCO).
Highlights
Sepsis is primarily a disease of the aged and 60% of sepsis occurs in patients older than 65 years, 80% of deaths due to sepsis occur in this age group
The purpose of the study is to elucidate the immunological changes that occur in Klotho mice after sepsis in order to identify therapeutic targets for sepsis that occurs in aged individuals
Forty-four septic patients and 48 gender-matched healthy volunteers were prospectively enrolled in the study, which included the following investigations: (1) The Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score and clinical outcome were compared between adult sepsis (
Summary
Sepsis is primarily a disease of the aged and 60% of sepsis occurs in patients older than 65 years, 80% of deaths due to sepsis occur in this age group. The aim of this study was to determine the reasons behind out-of-hours discharges in our hospital and the effect this has on mortality This audit reviewed the discharge process of patients from an adult general ICU to the general wards before and after the introduction of a liaison nurse post over a 3-year, 3-month time period. The aim of this study was to establish and compare the quality and value of the summaries as judged by ICU doctors and GPs. The relationship between provider volume and patient outcome has been demonstrated for many medical and surgical services, including critical care. Methods In this single-centre observational study we aimed to quantify functional dependency at three different time points: discharge from ICU (DI), discharge from hospital (DH) and discharge from nursing home rehabilitation unit (DR) To this end we retrospectively assed Barthel scores (BS) for individual patients [1], with a duration of mechanical ventilation >48 hours.
