Infections continue to play a significant role in the overall global mortality and disability more so Intensive Care Units (ICUs) plague developing countries intensively. The ICUs are often called "the hubs" of infections owing highly vulnerable patients' profile. most important nosocomial ICU catheter-related bloodstream infections, ventilator-associated pneumonia, catheter-associated urinary tract infections. epidemiology India is different from its Western counterparts terms prevalence...
Tuberculosis (TB) is an important cause of morbidity and mortality globally. About 3-4% hospitalized TB patients require admission to the intensive care unit (ICU); in these around 50-60%. There limited literature on evaluation management with who required ICU admission.
Thrombocytopenia is one of the most common hematological manifestations seen in HIV patients with approximately 40% developing thrombocytopenia during their course illness. Opportunistic infection like tuberculosis a rare but curative cause these patients. Clinically, it challenge to determine exact and decide treatment as both infections can lead significant by varied mechanisms. The options are limited drug antitubercular highly active antiretroviral therapy (ATT HAART)-induced...
Introduction: Diabetic Mellitus is the chronic metabolic illness characterised by hyperglycemia and various complications of heart, eyes, nerves, kidney etc. Nephropathy leading causes morbidity mortality in diabetic patient. We hypothesized that decreased serum folic acid levels are associated with Nephropathy. Materials Method: Our study population consist 100 subjects out which 50 cases Diabetes without measured routine lab parameters, apart from that, we spot urinary albumin to...
The sleep architecture of critically ill patients being treated in Intensive Care Units (ICU) and High Dependency (HDU) is frequently unsettled inadequate both qualitatively quantitatively. study aimed to investigate elucidate factors influencing quality ICU HDU a limited resource setting with financial constraints, lacking human resources technology for routine monitoring noise, light promotion strategies ICU.The was longitudinal, prospective, hospital-based, analytic, observational....

<b>Introduction:</b> NIV has become the standard of care in patients COPD presented with type II respiratory failure a success rate as close to 80%. However, role comorbidities and how affect prognosis not been defined precisely. <b>Aim:</b> To evaluate acute failure, clinical profile. <b>Materials methods:</b> It was Prospective observational study done RICU tertiary hospital from february 2012 march 2013. 41 were included. 31 had comorbidies formed group while 10 no (control group)....
<b>Introduction:</b> Ultrasonography (US) is an easily available, less expensive, sans unwanted effects, portable, quick & objective tool; ably assesses dynamic upper airway and surrounding soft tissues. It looks promising as a screening tool for OSA. <b>Aims objectives:</b> To evaluate the utility of ultrasonography <b>Methods:</b> Enrolled persons were divided into three groups 30 each:1) OSA patients, 2) Overweight non-OSA 3) healthy individuals with normal BMI by PSG. US measurements...
We hypothesize that PR in ILD patients leads to increase muscle mass as calculated by MTCSA CT scan ,decrease systemic inflammation and improvement exercise capacity (6MWD) quality of life (St.George respiratory questionnaire).
<b>Introduction:</b> Sleep disruption is a well known problem among critically ill patients in an intensive care unit (ICU) which persist during recovery and after transfer to step down (SDU). <b>Aim:</b> To evaluate patterns of sleep recovering from CCI factors (noise, light) affecting sleep. <b>Materials Methods:</b> 24 hr polysomnography (PSG) study was done ICU with simultaneous recording noise, light nursing activities repeated shifting <b>Results:</b> 26 underwent PSG then SDU. Mean...
<b>Introduction:</b> Anatomical and non-anatomical factors are implicated in repetitive collapse of upper airway (UA) OSA patients. <b>Aims:</b> To study the anthropometry (static & dynamic) UA patients by US assess relation between anatomy severity OSA. <b>Methods:</b> 30 each patients, overweight non-OSA persons healthy individuals with normal BMI, after their polysomnography underwent measurements tongue thickness(TT), length (UAL), lateral pharyngeal wall thickness (LPW) oropharynx...
<b>Introdution:</b> Sleep in icu is not sound and restorative but disturbed distorted. Among several factors, use of mechanical ventilation has been reported as an important cause sleep ICU. <b>Methods:</b> 24 hour polysomnography (PSG) study was done 2 groups patients who were recovering from their critical illness: Group 1 - IMV group 2- spontaneously breathing group. Frequency nursing care activities also recorded for both the groups. Quality ICU assessed by using Richard Campbell...
