Background Traumatic brain injury (TBI) has a disproportionately greater impact in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). One strategy to reduce the burden of disease LMICs is through implementation trauma registry that standardizes assessment each patient's management care. Objective This study aims ascertain interest Latin America Caribbean (LAC) nations establishing shared neurotrauma regional block, based on an existing framework for collaboration. Methods A descriptive review was...
Objective: Shortage of general neurosurgery and specialized neurotrauma care in low resource settings is a critical setback the national surgical plans middle-income countries (LMIC). Neurotrauma fellowship programs typically exist high-income (HIC), where surgeons who fulfill requirements for positions regularly stay to practice. Due this issue, residents medical students from LMICs do not have regular access kind training knowledge-hubs. The objective paper present results recently...
Abstract Low- and middle-income countries experience three times more traumatic brain injury (TBI) cases when compared with their high-income country counterparts. The quality of care patients receive in the prehospital setting emergency department settings are highly variable often dependent on computed tomography (CT) availability. implementation a handheld device that is able to reliably diagnose intracranial hemorrhage (ICrH) TBI needed these where CT unavailable. Infrascanner has shown...
: Infrascanner is a portable and easy-to-use device that functions based on near infrared spectroscopy can be utilized in prehospitalary hospitalary environments has risen as promising resort for the detection of potentially lethal intracranial hemorrhages, especially low-and-middle income countries where access to tomographer limited. The reviewed articles showed sensitivity ranges from 68.7% 100% specificity 50.43% 95.5% bleedings. shown results bleeding great potential its applicability,...
<sec> <title>BACKGROUND</title> This paper describes an observational study that aims to evaluate the clinical outcomes of implementing non-invasive monitoring techniques in traumatic brain injury (TBI) patients. The will collect data on patients treated with hypertonic saline and/or surgery management and assess relationship between neurological variables (pupillometry optic nerve sheath measurement) outcome measured by Glasgow Outcome Score Extended (GOSe). also identify possible...
Introduction: Low birth weight is a health problem in non-developed countries, with neonatal mortality rate 35 times higher Latin America than the expected one. At care unit of University Hospital Cali, Colombia, 75% all live newborn infants are < 2,500 g. Objectives: To evaluate who were followed up until 40 weeks postconceptional age kangaroo mother program. Methodology: A cohort study was performed newborns 2,001 g admitted to Universitario del Valle, if they had overcome major...
