Background/Objectives: Although the importance of magnesium for overall health and physiological function is well established, its influence on exercise performance less clear. The primary study objective was to determine short-term supplementation cycle ergometer performance. hypothesis that would elicit an ergogenic effect. Methods: A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, two-period crossover design used men women who were regular exercisers. Fifteen participants ingested either a...

The purpose of this study was to investigate the potential ergogenic effects an oral lactate supplement. For double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled crossover design, fifteen recreational exercisers (nine males, six females) ingested a placebo or commercially available supplement prior cycle ergometer exercise. Primary outcomes included peak oxygen uptake (VO2peak; via indirect calorimetry), VO2 at ventilatory threshold, and work rate threshold (arterialized venous blood from heated...
To determine the rate of unnecessary intravenous (IV) access in emergency setting.Retrospective chart review all patients who presented to a rural, academic department (ED) for study period June 1 through 10, 1997. Categorical data and elapsed time treatment are reported significant at p < 0.05.1,342 charts were reviewed; these, 940 enrolled. 402 excluded for: age <18 years, direct admission, or inadequate charting. Emergency medical services (EMS) transported 278 initiated 84 IVs field...
Background. It is not known how rocuronium compares with succinylcholine in its effect on intubation success during air medical rapid-sequence (RSI). Objective. To examine the impact of use odds successful prehospital intubation. Methods. We performed a retrospective analysis critical care transport service administrative database containing patient encounters from 2004 to 2008. Rotor transports patients ≥18 years old, requiring airway management (intubation or backup airway: laryngeal mask...
Background. At Groote Schuur Hospital in Cape Town, South Africa, the number of deceased organ donors has declined over past 2 decades, necessitating a more liberal approach to donor selection. In 2007, measures expand kidney pool were implemented, including an HIV positive-to-positive transplant programme and utilisation extended-criteria as well after circulatory death (DCDs). Objectives. To report on our institutional experience with DCD transplants encourage this among other African...
Abstract Objective Hypoxia is a recognised complication of procedural sedation. This study sought to determine whether there was an association between the use high‐flow oxygen delivery by non‐rebreather ( NRB ) mask during ED sedation and decreased rates hypoxia when compared with alternative oxygenation methods. Methods Records all sedations performed over 12 month period in Australian tertiary were reviewed retrospectively. The primary outcome recorded saturations fell below 90%....
Objective. To investigate the effect of adding a ground critical care ambulance service on utilization pre-existing helicopter air ambulance. Methods. A retrospective review requests for was performed during each three periods: one year prior to initiation service; first six months after service, which operated 12 hours daily; and subsequent months, 24 daily. control any increase in demand health services, hospital admission rates were used standardize data. Means compared using ANOVA....
ICHS SYSTEM NEED AND HISTORY The Integrated Cryogenic Helium System (ICHS) described by this paper is designed to address a number of needs in large, long duration scientific balloons. These include the provision helium gas for leakage and diffusion makeup, ability provide cooling power onboard instrumentation or other needs, tool altitude trajectory control. Besides new Superpressure balloons being developed NASA Ultra Long Duration Balloon (ULDB) missions, it anticipated that will find...
Hospitals spanning the United Kingdom have identified novel methods to facilitate safe discharge for COVID-19 patients in form of "virtual wards". This has enabled be monitored community using pulse oximetry, Florence (a telehealth mobile application) and telephone consultations. Our aim was adapt this model enable early supported with home oxygen therapy patients. Patients were accepted onto virtual ward if strict criteria met. The patient must require ≤ 4 litres oxygen/minute and...
