Background The ‘Golden Hour’ emphasizes the importance of rapidly providing definitive care to trauma patients. Dispatch time, defined as time it takes Helicopter Emergency Medical Service (HEMS) dispatch from their base and reach patient, on-scene spent with patient prior departure a center, can impact how quickly will care. We evaluated HEMS times by investigating survival rates among patients transported air level 1 center. hypothesize that longer are associated worse outcomes. Methods A...
Trauma care has improved substantially in the last decade. The emphasis of Golden Hour trauma encouraged creation faster transport and earlier prehospital intervention. Despite clear time-saving advantage helicopter emergency medical services (HEMS) held over ground ambulances (GAs) past, advances decade have created uncertainty as to whether HEMS is still associated with patient outcomes. We aimed determine air transportation was better outcomes compared transportation. hypothesized that...
Abstract Background Sleep disruption imposes deleterious physiological and psychological effects. We aimed to describe the relationship between school age respiratory health on adolescent sleep disturbance mental symptoms in people living with cystic fibrosis. Methods conducted a prospective longitudinal study of adolescents aged 10 18 years from October 2020 June 2024. was evaluated via serial measures pediatric daytime sleepiness scale (PDSS) for children (SDSC), while assessed Patient...
A subset of patients with ureteral stones who present to the emergency department (ED) will return recurring symptoms and receive unnecessary repeat imaging. We retrospectively identified 112 from 2012 2016 diagnosed at least one stone on computerized tomography (CT) our institution returned ED within 30 days. Patients were stratified based presence or absence CT scan Mean values compared independent t-test proportions chi-square analysis. Multivariate logistic regression was performed...
Abstract Background CFTR modulator Elexacaftor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor (ETI) significantly improves lung function and but its effect on mental health sleep remains poorly understood. We report sleep, mood respiratory outcomes of adolescents with CF ETI therapy. Methods conducted a prospective longitudinal study 31 (aged 10 to 18 years) from July 2021 October 2022. Data collected include demographics, pediatric daytime sleepiness scale (PDSS), disturbance for children (SDSC), patient...
Abstract Background Mental health issues are of increasing burden within the adolescent CF population, with known impacts from sleep disturbance. There limited studies examining mediators this relationship. We aimed to investigate relationship between quality and mood in adolescents alongside a range potential mediating factors including socioeconomic family influences adolescents. Study Design Adolescents aged 10–18 their parents at Victorian tertiary paediatric centre were eligible....
