In Brief We prospectively examined the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) in a group 193 elderly surgical inpatients receiving no antiemetic prophylaxis. Risk factors for PONV detailed data on opioid use were recorded. The overall (POV) rate was 23.8%, whereas (PON) 51.3%. Opioid (P = 0.025), female gender 0.038) identified as significantly influencing POV this relatively small population. There strong logarithmic dose-response relationship between dose (r2 0.98, P <...
The risks posed by Artificial Intelligence (AI) are of considerable concern to academics, auditors, policymakers, AI companies, and the public. However, a lack shared understanding can impede our ability comprehensively discuss, research, react them. This paper addresses this gap creating an Risk Repository serve as common frame reference. comprises living database 777 extracted from 43 taxonomies, which be filtered based on two overarching taxonomies easily accessed, modified, updated via...
An on demand intramuscular analgesic system using the Cardiff Palliator was tested. Forty consenting patients were studied after cholecystectomy in a double blind trial increments of buprenorphine (0.15 mg), meptazinol (50 morphine (5 and pethidine mg). Most attained good levels pain relief (mean analogue score 36.5), comparable to intravenous analgesia. There no technical complications. Significant differences found between drugs dizziness (pethidine produced worst score) but not with other...
Objective: To assess the relationship in healthy adults and critically ill patients between: patient position, body mass index (BMI), temperature, interface pressure (IP) tissue reperfusion (TR). Also to determine Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score, Braden Scale score for predicting injury risk, Acute Physiology Chronic Health Evaluation II (APACHE II) severity of disease classification IP TR. Methods: This study took place a 27-bed intensive care unit (ICU) an Australian...
A double-blind comparison of some analgesic and gastrointestinal effects nalbuphine pethidine was performed in 28 women undergoing laparoscopic sterilisation. The opioid given as an initial loading dose prior to the induction general anaesthesia further doses were on demand postoperative period achieve maintain adequate pain relief. Gastric emptying immediate also assessed each patient by measuring rate absorption orally administered paracetamol. Nalbuphine equally effective a analgesic, but...
Through a systematic review of academic literature, we propose taxonomy systemic risks associated with artificial intelligence (AI), in particular general-purpose AI. Following the EU AI Act's definition, consider as large-scale threats that can affect entire societies or economies. Starting an initial pool 1,781 documents, analyzed 86 selected papers to identify 13 categories and 50 contributing sources. Our findings reveal complex landscape potential threats, ranging from environmental...
Background: With healthcare providers experiencing increasing demand to evaluate clinical service delivery, it is necessary explore evaluation methodologies that can accommodate the complexities and contextual factors in health-care systems human general. Methodologies must also be comprehensible clinicians. Programme theory one such methodology.

Summary The effects of intravenous meptazinol on respiratory rate and end‐tidal CO 2 concentrations were investigated in a group 20 anaesthetised subjects. In clinically effective doses, produced dose‐related fall elevation concentration. Naloxone reversed these effects.
