BACKGROUND: Coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) is associated with hypercoagulability and increased thrombotic risk in critically ill patients. To our knowledge, no studies have evaluated whether aspirin use reduced of mechanical ventilation, intensive care unit (ICU) admission, in-hospital mortality. METHODS: A retrospective, observational cohort study adult patients admitted COVID-19 to multiple hospitals the United States between March 2020 July was performed. The primary outcome need for...
Prior observational studies suggest that aspirin use may be associated with reduced mortality in high-risk hospitalized patients COVID-19, but aspirin's efficacy moderate COVID-19 is not well studied.To assess whether early lower odds of in-hospital COVID-19.Observational cohort study 112 269 enrolled from January 1, 2020, through September 10, 2021, at 64 health systems the United States participating National Institute Health's COVID Cohort Collaborative (N3C).Aspirin within first day...
Infection with the SARS-CoV2 virus can vary from asymptomatic, or flu-like moderate disease, up to critically severe. Severe termed COVID-19, involves acute respiratory deterioration that is frequently fatal. To understand highly variable presentation, and identify biomarkers for disease severity, blood RNA COVID-19 patient in an intensive care unit was analyzed by whole transcriptome sequencing. Both infection severity of syndrome were associated 25-fold increased expression...
<h3>Background:</h3> Health care workers treating Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients face significant stressors such as caring for critically ill and dying patients, physically demanding requiring new degrees of personal protective equipment use, risk contracting the disease, putting loved ones at risk. This study investigates stress impact from COVID-19 exposure how nurses medical providers (eg, physicians, nurse practitioners, physician assistants) experience these challenges...
Introduction Endotracheal tube (ETT) malpositioning can result in a myriad of complications. Daily chest radiographs (CXR) is the gold standard monitoring these Point-of-care transtracheal ultrasound (TTUS) an emerging imaging modality for ETT positioning. We compared related adverse events and diagnostic accuracy combined TTUS CXR surveillance protocol to alone. Methods performed randomized control trial mechanically ventilated patients academic multidisciplinary ICU. In intervention group,...
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic affected the practice of gastroenterology. Endoscopic procedures are aerosolizing that carry risk COVID-19 transmission. Our national survey examined factors affecting gastroenterologists' fear contracting during endoscopy. An institutional review board-approved multicenter cross-sectional study used a snowball sample approach to disseminate 42-question gastroenterologists 3-month period in 2021, height pandemic. Physician demographics,...
