BACKGROUND: Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) can be used as an “ultima ratio” strategy in multiple injured patients with severe thoracic trauma. However, systemic anticoagulation during ECMO is recommended and thus traumatic brain injury (TBI) intracranial bleeding are well-accepted contraindications for therapy. METHODS: This report describes three cases of prolonged heparin-free venovenous acute respiratory distress syndrome TBI failing conventional mechanical ventilation....

Whole-body multislice helical computed tomography (MSCT) becomes increasingly important as a diagnostic tool in patients with multiple injuries. We describe time requirement of two different approaches to injuries one whole-body-MSCT (MSCT Trauma-Protocol) the sole radiologic procedure and conventional use radiography, combined abdominal ultrasound organ focused CT (Conventional-Trauma-Protocol).Observational study retrospective analysis requirements for resuscitation, workup transfer...

Whole-body multislice helical CT becomes increasingly important as a diagnostic tool in patients with multiple injuries. Time gain multiple-trauma who require emergency surgery might improve outcome. The authors hypothesised that whole-body computed tomography (MSCT) (MSCT trauma protocol) the initial reduces interval to start (tOR) if compared conventional radiography, combined abdominal ultrasound and organ-focused (conventional protocol). second goal of study was investigate whether...

Abstract Mass critical care caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome corona virus 2 pandemic poses an extreme challenge to hospitals. The primary goal of hospital disaster preparedness and response is maintain conventional or contingency for as long possible. Crisis must be delayed possible appropriate measures. Increasing intensive unit (ICU) capacities essential. In order adjust surge capacity, reduction planned, elective patient adequate response. However, this involves numerous...

Precise and complete documentation of in-hospital cardiopulmonary resuscitations is important but data quality can be poor. In the present study, we investigated effect a tablet-based application for real-time resuscitation used by emergency team leader on clinical performance team.Senior anaesthesiologists either during simulated also final or conducted full at end scenario using local hospital information system. The latter procedure represents current method. All scenarios were video...

Trauma is a global burden. Emergency medical services (EMS) provide care for individuals who have serious injuries or suffered major trauma.This paper provides comprehensive overview of telemedicine applications in prehospital trauma care.We conducted systematic review according to PRISMA guidelines. We identified articles by electronic database search (PubMed, EMBASE, the Cochrane Library, CINAHL, SpringerLink, LIVIVO, DARE, IEEE Xplore, Google Scholar and ScienceDirect) using keywords...

Background: Proportions of patients dying from the coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) vary between different countries. We report characteristics; clinical course and outcome requiring intensive care due to COVID-19 induced acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Methods: This is a retrospective, observational multicentre study in five German secondary or tertiary hospitals. All consecutively admitted unit (ICU) any participating hospitals March 12 May 4, 2020 with ARDS were included....

Pumpless arteriovenous extracorporeal lung assist is increasingly used as a rescue therapy in acute respiratory distress syndrome. Arteriovenous highly efficient eliminating carbon dioxide and allows the application of ventilator techniques that prioritize protection aim to reduce ventilator-induced injury remote organ dysfunction.Retrospective data analysis performed 12-bed university hospital ICU. In all, 22 patients with syndrome refractory standard care were included. central part...

In anaesthesia, patient simulators have been used for training and research. However, insights from simulator-based research may only translate to real settings if the simulation elicits same behaviour as setting. To this end, we investigated effects of case (simulated vs. case) experience level (junior senior) on distribution visual attention during induction general anaesthesia. We recorded eye-tracking data 12 junior senior anaesthetists inducing anaesthesia in a room an actual operating...

Abstract Purpose Rescue missions during terrorist attacks are extremely challenging for all rescue forces (police as well non-police forces) involved. To improve the quality and safety of an active killing event, it is obligatory to adapt common mission goals strategies.

People on home mechanical ventilation (HMV) belong to a heterogeneous population with complex care needs. In Germany, outpatient intensive is provided in people's private (PH) or shared living communities (SLC). Increasing patient numbers have led criticism of the quality recent years. Since deficits from perspective those affected are largely unclear, following research question emerged: How do interviews ventilated individuals and family caregivers explain any differences similarities...
