Abstract The objective of this study was to evaluate the prognostic value C-reactive protein (CRP), procalcitonin (PCT), and their combination for mortality in patients with septic shock. This multicenter, prospective, observational conducted between November 2015 December 2017. A total 1,772 shock were included, overall 28-day 20.7%. Although both CRP PCT elevated non-survivor group, only had statistical significance (11.9 mg/dL vs. 14.7 mg/dL, p = 0.003, 6.4 ng/mL 8.2 ng/mL, 0.508)....
Emergency tracheal intubation has achieved high success and low complication rates in the emergency department (ED). The objective of this study was to evaluate incidence post-intubation CA determine clinical factors associated with complication.A matched case-control a case control ratio 1:3 conducted at an urban tertiary care center between January 2007 December 2011. Critically ill adult patients requiring airway management ED were included. primary endpoint CA, defined as within 10...
<b><i>Objective:</i></b> Until now, cutoff values of low skeletal muscle mass using computed tomography (CT) were driven by optimal stratification to predict mortality in cancer patients. The aim the present study was investigate simple, age-specific, value CT healthy adults. <b><i>Design:</i></b> This is a retrospective, observational, single-center study. <b><i>Setting:</i></b> performed health screening department...
Nighttime hospital admission is often associated with increased mortality risk in various diseases. This study investigated compliance rates the Surviving Sepsis Campaign (SSC) 3-h bundle for daytime and nighttime emergency department (ED) admissions clinical impact of on patients septic shock.We conducted an observational using data from a prospective, multicenter registry shock provided by Korean Shock Society 11 institutions November 2015 to December 2017. The outcome was rate SSC...
The Sepsis-3 criteria introduced the system that uses Sequential Organ-Failure Assessment (SOFA) score to define sepsis. cardiovascular SOFA (CV SOFA) scoring needs modification due change in guideline-recommended vasopressors. In this study, we aimed develop and validate modified CV score.We developed, internally validated, externally validated using suspected infection cohort, sepsis septic shock cohort. primary outcome was 28-day mortality. constructed with consideration of recently...
The recent American Heart Association guidelines added a sixth link in the chain of survival highlighting recovery and emphasized importance psychiatric outcome for survivors out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). prevalence disorders among this population was higher than that general population.To examine depression or anxiety association these conditions with long-term mortality individuals who survive OHCA.A longitudinal population-based cohort study conducted to analyze prognosis...
Abstract Rapid response teams have been adopted to prevent unexpected in-ward cardiac arrest. However, there is no convincing evidence of optimal operation with rapid team. Our aim was address the impact focused team on safety patients in wards. Comparison extended performed single center. The operated adult whole ward (both medical and nonmedical ward) 24 hours per day, 7 days week during 2012. In 2015, operational time office from Monday Friday study population were limited ward....
Septic shock can be defined both by the presence of hyperlactatemia and need vasopressors. Lactate levels should measured after volume resuscitation (as per Sepsis-3 definition). However, currently, no studies have evaluated patients who been excluded new criteria for septic shock. The aim this study was to determine clinical characteristics prognosis these patients, based on their lactate initial fluid resuscitation. This observational performed using a prospective, multi-center registry...
Although adrenaline (epinephrine) is a cornerstone of initial anaphylaxis treatment, it not often used. We sought to assess whether use in hemodynamically stable patients with could prevent the development hypotension. conducted retrospective cohort study 761 adult presenting emergency department (ED) tertiary care hospital over 10-year period. divided into two groups according occurrence hypotension and compared demographic characteristics, clinical features, treatments outcomes. Of 340 who...
Background This study aimed to investigate the relationship between body mass index (BMI) and sufficient chest compression depth (CCD) in obese patients by a mathematical model. Methods Results retrospective analysis was performed with computed tomography images conducted 2006 2018. We classified selected individuals into underweight (<18.5), normal weight (≥18.5, <25), overweight (≥25, <30), (≥30) groups according BMI (kg/m2). defined heart fraction (HCF) as [Formula: see text] estimated...
Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is a major public health problem and leading cause of death worldwide. Previous studies have focused on improving the survival people who had OHCA by analyzing short-term outcomes, such as return spontaneous circulation, 30-day survival, to discharge. Research has been conducted prehospital prognostic factors improve patients with OHCA, among which association between socioeconomic status (SES) reported. SES could affect bystander cardiopulmonary...
Objectives: It is difficult to assess risk in normotensive patients with upper gastrointestinal bleeding. The aim of this study was evaluate whether the initial lactate value can predict in-hospital occurrence hypotension stable acute nonvariceal Design: Retrospective, observational, single-center study. Setting: Emergency department a tertiary-care, university-affiliated hospital during 5-year period. Patients: Medical records 3,489 bleeding who were at presentation emergency department. We...
<b><i>Background/Aims:</i></b> Muscle mass depletion has been suggested to predict morbidity and mortality in various diseases. However, it is not well known whether muscle associated with poor outcome sepsis. We hypothesized that <b><i>Methods:</i></b> Retrospective observational study was conducted an emergency department during a 9-year period. Medical records of 627 patients sepsis were reviewed. divided the into 2 groups according 28-day...
Abstract Background The effects of the body mass index (BMI) on outcomes patients resuscitated from cardiac arrest are controversial. Therefore, current study investigated association between BMI and favourable neurologic survival to discharge out-of-hospital (OHCA). Methods This multicentre, prospective, nationwide OHCA registry-based was conducted using data Korean Cardiac Arrest Resuscitation Consortium (KoCARC). We enrolled hospitals willing collect patient height weight included who...
The COVID-19 pandemic might have adversely affected outcomes of patients in emergency departments (EDs). aim this study is to evaluate the impact on admitted through department.This a single-center, retrospective, observational cohort study. We compared prognosis ED before (November 2018 June 2019) and after 2020 2021). primary outcome was in-hospital mortality. Multivariable logistic regression analysis performed determine whether independently associated with patient prognosis.The number...
Epidural analgesia has become a common procedure to provide excellent pain relief with few complications. Pneumorrhachis and pneumocephalus are rare complications of unintentional dural puncture injection air into the subarachnoid or subdural space. No cases cardiac arrest associated these have been reported in literature previously. We report pneumorrhachis two Korean women who previously visited local clinic underwent epidural analgesia. Thereafter, they were admitted emergency department...
