In experimental pneumonia, nebulization of antibiotics provides high lung tissue concentrations and rapid bacterial killing.To assess the efficacy safety nebulized ceftazidime amikacin in ventilator-associated pneumonia caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa.Forty patients with aeruginosa were included a randomized comparative phase II trial. Twenty infected susceptible or intermediate strains received (15 mg·kg(-1)·3 h(-1)) (25 mg·kg(-1)·d(-1)). Seventeen intravenous (90 mg·kg(-1)·d(-1),...
Ascertaining which patients are at highest risk of poor postoperative outcomes could improve care and enhance safety. This study aimed to construct validate a propensity index for 30-day mortality. A retrospective cohort was conducted Hospital de Clínicas Porto Alegre, Brazil, over period 3 years. dataset 13524 used develop the model another 7254 it. The primary outcome in-hospital Overall mortality in development 2.31% [n = 311; 95% confidence interval: 2.06–2.56%]. Four variables were...
Background Practical use of risk predictive tools and the assessment their impact on outcome reduction is still a challenge. This pragmatic study quality improvement (QI) describes preoperative adoption customised postoperative death probability model (SAMPE model) evaluation Postoperative Anaesthetic Care Unit (PACU) pathway clinical deterioration high-risk surgical patients. Methods A prospective cohort 2,533 patients compared with 2,820 historical controls after intervention. We carried...
Surgical care is essential for proper management of various diseases. However, it can result in unfavorable outcomes. In order to identify patients at higher risk complications, several stratification models have been developed. Ideally, these tools should be simple, reproducible, accurate, and externally validated. Unfortunately, none the best-known instruments validated Brazil. this sense, Ex-Care model was developed by retrospective data analysis surgical a major Brazilian university...
