The effectiveness of rapid response teams remains controversial. However, many studied were not intensivist-led, had limited involvement beyond the initial activations, and did provide post-ICU follow-up. objective this study was to examine impact implementing an intensivist-led multidisciplinary extended team on hospital-wide cardiopulmonary arrests mortality.This a pre-post implementation study.: Tertiary care academic center in Saudi Arabia.A total 98,391 patients 2-yr pre-rapid 157,804...
The COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the need to prioritise mature digital health and data governance at both national supranational levels guarantee future security. Riyadh Declaration on Digital Health was a call action create infrastructure needed share effective evidence-based practices high-quality, real-time locally globally provide actionable information more systems countries. declaration proposed nine key recommendations for that be adopted by global community address pandemics...
When organisations encounter a crisis, the most senior executives are at spotlight and have responsibility to lead organisation safe grounds. This necessitates mental focus instill confidence resilience staff, customers external stakeholders. In August 2015, large medical centre in Saudi Arabia faced major outbreak with Middle East Respiratory Syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV), cases accumulated an unprecedented rate, triggered by hospital-acquired transmission overcrowded Emergency...
The shortage of clinical pharmacists in Saudi Arabia has limited the full implementation pharmaceutical care most its hospitals. National Guard Health Affairs This work discussed Department Pharmaceutical Care, and King Saud Bin Abdulaziz University for Sciences College Pharmacy four initiatives that were planned 2009-2010 to develop recruit pharmacists, practitioners, or faculty.The combined aimed at (1) instituting a 4-year skills development career ladder, (2) expanding postgraduate...
Purpose: To compare the performance of two indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA) detecting Helicobacter pylori (HP)-specific IgG antibodies in serum and saliva with endoscopic observations histologic findings biopsies from dyspeptic patients, an area high HP prevalence. Materials Methods: Sera, antral were obtained 55 patients. against assayed sera utilizing ELISAs. Biopsies processed according to standard procedures order detect histological changes presence or absence pylori....
This study was designed to determine the different etiologies of ascites and diagnostic value serumascites albumin gradient (SAAG) in patients with non-alcoholic liver disease Southern Saudi Arabia. A total 132 (96 males 36 females, mean age 58.8+/-15.9 years) were studied for causes ascites. In 55 22 nonliver (malignancy peritoneal tuberculosis), we compared SAAG three usual parameters ascitic fluid biochemical analysis used differential diagnoses The group showed higher protein (aTP)...
We determined the hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotypes and co-infection rate with G (HGV) in 32 Arab patients infected virus. Twenty two Saudi ten Egyptian were recruited from southern Arabia, an endemic region for chronic liver disease. HCV genotype was by PCR specific primers core region. Hepatitis RNA detected reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Five blood donors, 11 had infection, 13 cirrhosis 3 hepatocellular carcinoma. 4 of 22 (50%). 1b 9 (40.9%) 1a 2 (9.1%). Amongst...
There is a close association between intestinal metaplasia (IM) and the development of gastric cancer as well relationship Helicobacter pylori, IM, cancer. Our aim was to study frequency subtypes IM in Saudi population with dyspepsia, low prevalence cancer.Endoscopic antral biopsy specimens were histologically studied for presence H. pylori consecutive patients who underwent upper gastrointestinal endoscopy evaluation dyspepsia. Hematoxylin eosin Giemsa stain used inflammation, whereas...
The prevalence of antibodies to hepatitis C virus (anti‐HCV) was retrospectively determined using a second generation enzyme immunoassay in 3868 blood donors from the southern part Saudi Arabia an area with high B (HBV) infection. Of 3354 Saudis, 48 (1.43%) were seropositive for anti‐HCV. A (43 204, 21.08%) anti‐HCV observed among Egyptian compared Saudis and other nationalities (eight 310, 2.58%). Furthermore, increase age, peaking 25 34 year age group. From this studies conducted different...
We investigated the etiology of acute sporadic viral hepatitis in southern Saudi Arabia a series 132 patients admitted with hepatitis. Of these cases, 108 (81.8%) were due to A virus infection, which 11 (8.3%) had been previously exposed E virus, and another 10 (7.6%) chronic carriers B virus. Three cases (2.3%) infection. The overall prevalence IgG antibodies was found be 9.1%. remaining 21 (15.9%) tested for IgM, EBV-VCA IgM C by sensitive enzyme immunoassays. In none them could or...
