Abstract The spread of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales (CRE) poses a public health threat worldwide. We aimed to compare the mortality rates between carbapenemase-producing (CP) and non-CP CRE bacteremia. conducted retrospective cohort study in patients with bacteremia after propensity score (PS) matching. performed Kaplan–Meier curve analysis identify cumulative hazard for 30-day mortality. There were 318 January 1, 2018, December 31, 2022. 252 CP-CRE 66 non-CP-RE, respectively....
Background and Objectives: Recent research has focused on exploring the relationships between various factors associated with headaches understanding their impact individuals’ psychological states. Utilizing statistical methods machine learning models, these studies aim to analyze predict develop effective approaches for headache management prevention. Materials Methods: Analyzing data from 398 patients (train set = 318 test 80), we investigated influence of features outcomes such as...
It is not clear whether mortality associated with body temperature (BT) in older sepsis patients. This study aimed to evaluate the rates patients according age and BT identify risk factors for mortality. We investigated clusters using a machine learning method based on combination of BT, identified these clusters. retrospective multicenter was conducted at five hospitals Korea. Data aged ≥ 18 years who were admitted intensive care unit between January 1, 2011 April 30, 2021 collected....
The Controlling Nutritional Status (CONUT) score and the prognostic nutritional index (PNI) have emerged as important indices because they provide an objective assessment based on data. We aimed to investigate how these relate outcomes in patients with sepsis.
Background: As the global population ages, medical professionals are also aging. This study investigates status of Korean anesthesiologists over age 60.Methods: Anesthesiologists aged 60 and older, residing working in Korea, were invited to participate this via e-mail from February March 2021 by mail June August 2021. The survey consisted 40 questions covering 10 topics, including health status, residence, work style, economic status. Depending on type question, answers ranked a scale 1, 2,...
Abstract Few data are available regarding factors that impact cricothyrotomy use and outcome in general hospital setting. The aim of the present study was to determine incidence outcomes patients underwent a “cannot intubate, cannot oxygenate” (CICO) situation at university hospitals Korea. This retrospective review electronic medical records consecutive who during CICO between March, 2007, October, 2018, 2 Data patient characteristics were analyzed using descriptive statistics. During...
Abstract Accurate prediction of difficult direct laryngoscopy (DDL) is essential to ensure optimal airway management and patient safety. The present study proposed an AI model that would accurately predict DDL using a small number bedside pictures the patient’s face neck taken simply with smartphone. In this prospective single-center study, adult patients scheduled for endotracheal intubation under general anesthesia were included. Patient obtained in frontal, lateral, frontal-neck...
Abstract Background: The aim of this study was to compare morning surgery (Group A), characterized by high cortisol levels, with afternoon B), low respect cortisol, inflammatory cytokines (interleukin [IL]-6, IL-8), and postoperative hospital days (POHD) after hip surgery. Methods: conducted in a single center, prospective, randomized (1:1) parallel group trial. Patients undergoing total replacement or hemiarthroplasty were randomly divided into two groups according the start time: 8 am A)...
Abstract Background Predicting difficult airway is challengeable in patients with limited evaluation. The aim of this study to develop and validate a model that predicts laryngoscopy by machine learning neck circumference thyromental height as predictors can be used even for Methods Variables prediction difficulty included age, sex, height, weight, body mass index, circumference, distance. Difficult was defined Grade 3 4 the Cormack-Lehane classification. preanesthesia anesthesia data 1677...
The aim of this study was to evaluate the sedative effect dexmedetomidine (DEX) added ropivacaine for supraclavicular brachial plexus block (BPB) using bispectral index (BIS).Sixty patients (American Society Anesthesiologists physical status 1 or 2, aged 20-65 years) undergoing wrist and hand surgery under BPB were randomly allocated two groups. Ultrasound-guided performed with 40 ml 0.5% µg/kg DEX (Group RD) 0.01 ml/kg normal saline R). primary endpoint BIS change during 60 min after block....
The quick sepsis-related organ failure assessment (qSOFA) score has been introduced to predict the likelihood of dysfunction in patients with suspected infection. We hypothesized that machine-learning models using qSOFA variables for predicting three-day mortality would provide better accuracy than emergency department (ED). Between January 2016 and December 2018, medical records aged over 18 years infection were retrospectively obtained from four EDs Korea. Data three hospitals (n = 19,353)...
Previous scoring models, such as the Acute Physiologic Assessment and Chronic Health Evaluation II (APACHE II) score, do not adequately predict mortality of patients receiving mechanical ventilation in intensive care unit. Therefore, this study aimed to apply machine learning algorithms improve prediction accuracy for 30-day mechanically ventilated patients. The data 16,940 were divided into training-validation (83%, n = 13,988) test (17%, 2952) sets. Machine including balanced random...
Age-related differences in pain perception have been reported various contexts; however, their impact on postoperative intensity remains poorly understood, especially across different surgical procedures. Data from five hospitals were retrospectively analyzed, encompassing patients who underwent 10 distinct Numeric rating scale scores used to assess the worst during 24 h after surgery. The multivariate linear regression model analyzed relationship between age and intensity. Subgroup analyses...
Purpose: It remains unclear whether primary headaches, particularly migraine, are associated with glaucoma. We investigated potential associations between including migraine and tension-type headache (TTH), glaucoma, open-angle glaucoma (OAG) closed-angle (CAG).Methods: used data from the Clinical Data Warehouse collected 2008 2023 to investigate TTH influence risk of compared prevalence OAG, CAG, other total (TG), among patients those TTH, controls.Results: This study analyzed 46,904 48,116...
The impact of body mass index (BMI) on postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) is controversial, few studies have focused their relationship. We investigated the effects BMI PONV, taking into account other PONV risk factors. analyzed adults over age 18 years who received general anesthesia between 2015 2019, using propensity score matching. Before matching, odds ratios (ORs) for were lower overweight (OR, 0.91; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.87–0.96; p < 0.0001) or obese patients 0.77;...
We previously reported that cold application to the palms between sets of high-intensity bench press exercise produces an ergogenic effect in men. In this study, we hypothesized palm cooling (PC) or heating during rest intervals weight training will increase total repetitions and volume load (kilograms) resistance trained female subjects a thermoneutral (TN) environment. Eight (mean ± SD, age = 25 6 years, height 160 cm, body mass 56 7 kg, 1-repetition maximum [1RM] 52 experience 2 years)...
