Atrial fibrillation (AF) is common in older people with frailty and associated an increased risk of stroke systemic embolism. Whilst oral anticoagulation a reduction this risk, there lack data on the safety efficacy direct anticoagulants (DOACs) frailty. This study aims to report clinical outcomes patients AF Effective Anticoagulation Factor Xa Next Generation Fibrillation-Thrombolysis Myocardial Infarction 48 (ENGAGE AF-TIMI 48) trial by status.
Objectives To determine whether sleep disruption at home or in hospital is an independent risk factor for postoperative delirium older adults undergoing elective surgery. Design Prospective cohort study. Setting German teaching hospital. Participants Individuals aged 65 and arthroplasty (N = 101). Measurements Preoperative questionnaires were used to assess (Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index). Actigraphy was objectively measure the before after Delirium assessed daily surgery using Confusion...
Randomized controlled trials are used to inform clinical guidelines on the management of hypertension in older adults, but it is unclear what extent these represent general population attending routine practice. This study aimed define proportion and characteristics patients eligible for conducted people.Cross-sectional study.A total 24 practices England.Anonymized electronic health record data from all individuals aged 80 older.Descriptive statistics were two previous medication...
Abstract The past three decades have seen a steady increase in the availability of routinely collected health and social care data processing power to analyse it. These developments represent major opportunity for ageing research, especially with integration different datasets across traditional boundaries care, prognostic research novel evaluations interventions representative populations older people. However, there are considerable challenges using routine at level coding, analysis...
The purpose of this intervention study was to investigate if a low-dose plyometric training (PT) could improve sprint and jump performance in groups different maturity status.Male youth field hockey players were divided into Pre-PHV (from -1 -1.9 from PHV; Experimental: n = 9; Control 12) Mid-PHV (0 +0.9 8; 9) groups. Participants the experimental completed 60 foot contacts, twice-weekly for 6 weeks.PT exerted positive effect (effect size: 0.4 [-0.4-1.2]) on 10 m time group but less...
Abstract Background Atrial fibrillation (AF) is common in older people and associated with increased stroke risk that may be reduced by oral anticoagulation (OAC). Frailty also increases increasing age, yet the extent of OAC prescription according to frailty AF insufficiently described. Methods An electronic health records study 536,955 patients aged ≥65 years from ResearchOne England (384 General Practices), over 15.4 months, last follow-up 11th April 2017. for CHA2DS2-Vasc ≥2, adjusted...
Artificial intelligence (AI) in healthcare describes algorithm-based computational techniques which manage and analyse large datasets to make inferences predictions. There are many potential applications of AI the care older people, from clinical decision support systems that can identification delirium records wearable devices predict risk a fall. We held four meetings clinicians researchers. Three priority areas were identified for application people. These included: monitoring early...
Abstract Aims People with atrial fibrillation (AF) frequently live frailty, which increases the risk of mortality and stroke. This study reports association between oral anticoagulation (OAC) outcomes for people whether there is overall net benefit from treatment in AF. Methods results Retrospective open cohort electronic records study. Frailty was identified using frailty index. Primary care health 89 996 adults AF CHA2DS2-Vasc score ≥2 were linked secondary data Clinical Practice Research...
Abstract Purpose Delirium is a neuropsychiatric disorder delineated by an acute change in cognition, attention, and consciousness. It common, particularly older adults, but poorly recognised. Frailty the accumulation of deficits conferring increased risk adverse outcomes. We set out to determine how severity frailty, as measured using CFS, affected delirium rates, recognition hospitalised people United Kingdom. Methods Adults over 65 years were included observational multi-centre audit...
To establish whether existing exercise programmes offered to people with sarcopenia or frailty adhere the current evidence base.
There are national and global moves to improve effective digital data design application in healthcare. This New Horizons commentary describes the role of healthcare ageing population. We outline how health social care professionals can engage proactive systems that appropriately serve people as they age, carers workforce supports them.
<h3>ABSTRACT</h3> Delirium describes a sudden onset change in mental status of fluctuating course. This is state altered consciousness characterised chiefly by inattention or lack arousal, but can also include new impairment language, perception and behaviour. Certain predisposing factors make an individual more susceptible to delirium the face stressor. Stressors direct insults brain, peripheral brain external changes environment individual. varied its presentation, be categorised...
Objectives This study sets out to ascertain if recognition of delirium impacts on patient outcomes. Design Retrospective cohort study. Setting Unscheduled admissions acute care trust/secondary UK hospitals. Participants Six hundred and fifty-six older adults aged ≥65 years admitted 14 September 2018. Measurements Delirium was ascertained retrospectively from case notes using medical notes. Documented classified as recognised unrecognised delirium. Primary secondary outcome measures measure:...
