Troponin elevation is common in hospitalized COVID-19 patients, but underlying aetiologies are ill-defined. We used multi-parametric cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) to assess myocardial injury recovered patients.One hundred and forty-eight patients (64 ± 12 years, 70% male) with severe infection [all requiring hospital admission, 48 (32%) ventilatory support] troponin discharged from six hospitals underwent convalescent CMR (including adenosine stress perfusion if indicated) at...
Objectives To compare risks of hypernatraemia on admission to hospital in persons who were with those not identified as care home residents and evaluate the association in-hospital mortality. Design Retrospective observational study. Setting A National Health Service Trust London. Participants total 21,610 patients aged over 65 years whose first was between 1 January 2011 31 December 2013. Main outcome measures Hypernatraemia (plasma Na > 145 mmol/L) death. Results Patients admitted from...
Abstract Objective Clinical interventions and death in the intensive care unit (ICU) depend on complex patterns patients’ longitudinal data. We aim to anticipate these events earlier more consistently so that staff can consider preemptive action. Materials Methods use a temporal convolutional network encode data feedforward neural demographic from 4713 ICU admissions 2014–2018. For each hour of admission, we predict subsequent 1–6 hours. compare performance with other models including...
Abstract Background The usual reference range of serum sodium (typically 135–145 mmol/l) is derived from healthy populations but may not apply to hospital patients. Objectives To describe the in inpatients and outpatients both sexes at different ages. ascertain correlates among older inpatients. association between mortality. Methods We used routine data on admitted 1 January 2011 31 December 2014 patients attending outpatient or community clinics with no record admission same hospitals...
The demand for intensive care has increased relentlessly over the past 30 years. It is now regarded as a necessity rather than luxury. provision of lagged behind that demand. Thus, patients who are judged to need when bed unavailable increasingly transferred another hospital such care. present commentary discusses transfers and describes website being trialled in UK helps with locating available beds.
There has been an increase in the use of non-invasive ventilation (NIV) intensive care setting. Guidelines suggest more favourable outcomes when used patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and cardiogenic oedema (CPO)[1], yet its often extends beyond these indications despite no evidence clear benefit.
The role of non-invasive ventilation in the intensive care unit (ICU) is generally poorly understood. Published guidelines largely relate to use NIV outside ICU1,2. Whilst much focus has been placed on relating indication for outcome, little attention paid duration and whether or not this might have an impact outcome.
