Summary Demand for critical care among older patients is increasing in many countries. Assessment of frailty may inform discussions and decision making, but acute illness reliance on proxies history‐taking pose particular challenges who are critically ill. Our aim was to investigate the inter‐rater reliability Clinical Frailty Scale assessing admitted care. We conducted a prospective, multi‐centre study comparing assessments by staff from medical, nursing physiotherapy backgrounds. Each...
The JHI has a long history of publishing on hand hygiene, with review article as early 1983 highlighting that hands are the most common vehicle transmission in hospital setting [1Reybrouck G. Role spread nosocomial infections.J Hosp Infect. 1983; 4: 103-110https://doi.org/10.1016/0195-6701(83)90040-3Abstract Full Text PDF PubMed Scopus (77) Google Scholar], whilst recent innovations from past decade were highlighted by Kathryn French [2French K. Ten articles hygiene innovation have been...
Even though the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services is penalizing hospitals readmissions, postoperative prophylaxis has demonstrated reduced complications associated with deep vein thrombosis (DVT), few studies have examined patient compliance (DVT) at home. A survey querying DVT management adherence was administered to patients who were within one three-month period after a total knee or hip replacement. of 103 completed survey. considerable number (17.0%) non-adherent prophylaxis....
Intravesical pressure was measured continuously during 35 transurethral prostate resections using a fine suprapubic catheter. Absorption of irrigating fluid detected by tagging it with ethanol and sampling the expired breath an alcohol meter. Higher mean (SD) intravesical demonstrated in those patients who absorbed (19.1 (7.7) mmHg) than did not (12.4 (6.5) mmHg; p = 0.00004). peak pressures were also among absorbing patients. Traditional risk factors for absorption, such as operator...
The evaluation of the Road Home (RH) program has revealed many learnings interest to practitioners, researchers and evaluators. focus this analysis is twofold - on an innovative approach building evidence base using a developmental action learning design how research knowledge skills can be applied in practitioner contexts robust, rigorous above all useful. It particularly features role reflective practice, affordable, underutilised easy access improvement method for practitioners working...
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic resulted in unprecedented global use of personal protective equipment (PPE) to protect healthcare workers (HCWs). In the UK, gowns were recommended for all patient care until infection was downgraded from a high-consequence infectious by Public Health England (PHE) on 19th March 2020 [1Public EnglandHigh consequence diseases (HCID) guidance.

ISEE-348 Abstract: Studies examining the relation between human health and either environmental exposures, lifestyle, or genetic predisposition require biologically-based data from selected populations. Such can be collected in form of descriptive narrative (e.g., a questionnaire), physiological measurement height), biological specimen (biospecimen, e.g., blood). Biospecimens are particularly valuable that they both minimize misclassification bias associated with exposure and/or disease...
Objective: To look at the clinical phenotype of Irish ALS patients testing positive for hexanucelotide repeat on chromosome nine. Background Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neurodegenerative disease that overlaps with frontotemporal dementia. A hexanucleotide 9p21 has been associated and FTD. The population based frequency this cognitive in familial sporadic ALS, not established. Design/Methods: 600 population-based samples from DNA bank were tested using combination reverse prime...
