Two metrics, a rise in serum creatinine concentration and decrease urine output, are considered tantamount to the injury of kidney tubule epithelial cells thereof (AKI). Yet neither criterion emphasizes etiology or pathogenetic heterogeneity acute decreases excretory function. In fact, whether decreased function due contraction extracellular fluid volume (vAKI) intrinsic (iAKI) actually share pathogenesis should be aggregated same diagnostic group remains an open question. To examine this...
PURPOSE Unplanned health care encounters (UHEs) such as emergency room visits can occur commonly during cancer chemotherapy treatments. Patients at an increased risk of UHEs are typically identified by clinicians using performance status (PS) assessments based on a descriptive scale, the Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) scale. Such be bias prone, resulting in PS score disagreements between assessors. We therefore propose to evaluate physical activity measurements (eg, energy...
Objective The purpose of this project was to develop a novel airway‐exchange broncholaryngoscope (AEBLScope) improve the efficiency and accuracy procedures. Methods AEBLScope designed combine bronchoscope catheter (AEC) into single device reduce blind placement AECs. prototype constructed by modifying an existing distal‐chip bronchoscope. A custom AEC procured fit concentrically over flexible portion scope. connected scope handpiece customized push–pull locking attachment. used perform...
6519 Background: Functional status and predictors that identify those cancer patients at risk for unplanned hospitalization can have broad implications the health care system clinical trials. We evaluated feasibility of monitoring physical activity (PA) using wearable trackers in on highly emetogenic chemo as well potential correlations between PA healthcare events (UHE) ECOG scores. Methods: This study was conducted a multi-institutional single arm observational trial 65 with solid tumors...
