Rationale In patients with COVID-19 pneumonia and mild hypoxaemia, the clinical benefit of high-flow nasal oxygen (HFNO) remains unclear. We aimed to examine whether HFNO compared conventional therapy (COT) could prevent escalation respiratory support in this patient population. Methods multicentre, randomised, parallel-group, open-label trial, peripheral saturation (SpO 2 ) ≤92% who required were randomised or COT. The primary outcome was rate (ie, continuous positive airway pressure,...
Background: The clinical significance of combinations inflammatory biomarkers in severe COVID-19 infection is yet to be proved. Although several studies have evaluated the prognostic value patients with COVID-19, there are limited data regarding combination scores that could take full advantage and account for heterogeneity COVID-19. We investigated admission values adults Methods: Adults admitted Department Respiratory Medicine UHL (April-September 2021, NCT05145751) were included....
To evaluate the relationship between nurse demographics and correct identification of clinical situations warranting specific nursing actions, including activation medical emergency team.If abnormal physiology is left untreated, patient may develop cardiac arrest. Nurses in general wards are those who perceive any deterioration patients.A descriptive, quantitative design was selected.An anonymous survey with 13 multiple choice questions distributed to 150 randomly selected nurses working...
Postresuscitation hemodynamics are associated with hospital mortality/functional outcome. We sought to determine whether low-dose steroids started during and continued after cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) affect postresuscitation other physiological variables in vasopressor-requiring, in-hospital cardiac arrest.We conducted a two-center, randomized, double-blind trial of patients adrenaline (epinephrine)-requiring arrest. Patients were randomized receive either methylprednisolone 40 mg...
Nasal irrigation is thought to decrease the viral load present in nasal cavity. Our aim was assess effect of a hypertonic seawater solution [with algal and herbal natural ingredients (Sinomarin®)] on nasopharynx patients hospitalized with severe COVID-19 pneumonia. We conducted prospective, randomized, controlled trial from June 2022 December 2022. allocated 56 pneumonia into two groups (28 each group)—the group [nasal irrigations (Sinomarin®) every 4 h for 16 per day, consecutive days]...
To evaluate the impact of intubation timing, guided by severity criteria, on mortality in critically ill COVID-19 patients, amidst existing uncertainties regarding optimal practices.
This study aimed to conduct a bibliometric analysis of the 100 most cited articles on experimental cardiac arrest models in rats, identifying key contributors, publication trends, research themes, and collaboration networks. A comprehensive literature search was performed Web Science (WoS) database June 11, 2024, using keywords related rat models. The top were analyzed Biblioshiny web application from Bibliometrix R package (version 4.2.3), categorized by primary focus. Articles, published...
COVID-19 disease progression is characterized by hyperinflammation and risk stratification may aid in early aggressive treatment advanced planning. The aim of this study was to assess whether suPAR other markers measured at hospital admission can predict the severity COVID-19.The primary outcome measure international, multi-centre, prospective, observational with adult patients hospitalized primarily for association WHO Clinical Progression Scale (WHO-CPS) suPAR, ferritin, CRP, albumin, LDH,...
Background: Social distancing and mask-wearing were recommended mandatory for people during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: A web-based questionnaire was disseminated through social media assessing mask type preference history amongst tertiary sector services rates of triad respiratory symptoms in each type, along with other respiratory-related parameters. Results: Amongst 4107 participants, 63.4% responders, mainly women, preferred medical/surgical masks; 20.5%, men, cotton cloth 13.8%...
