Importance Long-term sequelae after symptomatic SARS-CoV-2 infection may impact well-being, yet existing data primarily focus on discrete symptoms and/or health care use. Objective To compare patient-reported outcomes of physical, mental, and social well-being among adults with illness who received a positive vs negative test result for infection. Design, Setting, Participants This cohort study was planned interim analysis an ongoing multicenter prospective longitudinal registry (the...
The prevalence, incidence, and interrelationships of persistent symptoms after severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection vary. There are limited data on specific phenotypes symptoms. Using latent class analysis (LCA) modeling, we sought to identify whether COVID-19 were present 3 months 6 post-infection.
Introduction Data on ethnic and racial differences in symptoms health-related impacts following SARS-CoV-2 infection are limited. We aimed to estimate the 3 6 months after first infection. Methods Participants included adults with enrolled a prospective multicenter US study between 12/11/2020 7/4/2022 as primary cohort of interest, well SARS-CoV-2-negative account for non-SARS-CoV-2-infection impacts, who completed enrollment 3-month surveys ( N = 3,161; 2,402 SARS-CoV-2-positive, 759...
Long-term symptoms following severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection are a major concern, yet their prevalence is poorly understood.
Importance Chronic symptoms reported following an infection with SARS-CoV-2, such as cognitive problems, overlap included in the definition of myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS). Objective To evaluate prevalence ME/CFS-like illness subsequent to acute SARS-CoV-2 infection, changes ME/CFS through 12 months follow-up, and association test results at infection–like index illness. Design, Setting, Participants This prospective, multisite, longitudinal cohort study...
Abstract Background Recovery from SARS CoV-2 infection is expected within 3 months. Long COVID occurs after SARS-CoV-2 when symptoms are present for more than months that continuous, relapsing and remitting, or progressive. Better understanding of illness trajectories could strengthen patient care support. Methods We characterized functional impairments, quality life (QoL), cognition among patients who recovered (without COVID), (Recovered remained symptomatic (Long COVID). Among 7305...
Background: We assessed the performance of a point-of-care (POC) glucose meter system (GMS) with multitasking test strip by using locally-smoothed (LS) median absolute difference (MAD) curve method in conjunction modified Bland-Altman plot and superimposed International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 15197 tolerance bands. analyzed tight glycemic control (TGC). Methods: A oxidase enzyme multilayer-gold, multielectrode, four-well (StatStrip™, NOVA Biomedical, Waltham, MA) was used....
Physical activity is important to prevent and manage multiple chronic medical conditions. The objective of this study was describe the implementation a physical vital sign (PAVS) in primary care setting examine association between with demographic characteristics disease burden.
Background : Physical inactivity is a risk factor for many chronic conditions. This retrospective cohort study examined associations between physical activity (PA) with health care utilization (HU). Methods A PA vital sign was recorded in clinics from January 2018 to December 2020. Patients were categorized as inactive, insufficiently active, or sufficiently active by US aerobic guidelines. Associations and visits (inpatient admissions, emergency department, urgent care, primary care)...
The goal of this study was to construct a single-tube multiplex molecular diagnostic assay using linear-after-the-exponential (LATE)-PCR for the detection 17 microbial pathogens commonly associated with septicaemia.The described here detects sepsis via amplification and analysis gene-specific sequences. their targeted genes were: Klebsiella spp. (phoE); Acinetobacter baumannii (gyrB); Staphylococcus aureus (spa); Enterobacter (thdF); Pseudomonas aeruginosa (toxA); coagulase-negative...
Abstract Background Home testing for influenza has the potential to aid triage and management decisions patients with influenza-like illness. As yet, little is known about effect of home on clinical decision-making via telehealth. The goal this study was determine clinicians’ decision thresholds whether availability a test affects decisions. Methods We identified primary care physicians at 4 different sites in US, largely in-person continuing education meetings. Clinicians were asked each...
Point-of-care testing is useful when caring for patients in hospital settings and emergency disaster situations. However, point-of-care professional practice lacks components, such as standardization, harmonization, consistency, which would substantially improve patient care if implemented. Therefore, we propose adoption of whole-blood standards, harmonization among methods, tighter quality control constraints. Granting these 3 wishes will at the point ultimately diagnoses, treatment...
Objective The 2004 earthquake/tsunami devastated Southeast Asia. We studied point-of-care testing (POCT) and O2 saturation monitoring in Phang Nga, hardest hit southern coastal province, to develop preparedness strategies for low-resource small-world networks (SWNs). Design, Setting, Participants Early 2005, we surveyed 4 provinces then, 2007–2011, focused on Nga with new field/phone/mail/e-mail/fax surveys of 7 primary care units, all community hospitals, both regional hospitals. used...
Telehealth-embedded knowledge packets in conjuction with point-of-care testing strategically placed small-world networks for regional health care delivery can provide multilingual education and intellectual connectivity at levels of sophistication appropriate the practice modern evidence-based medicine worldwide. In addition, demographic topographic integration efficient critical, emergency, disaster thereby improve public preparedness, especially underserved low-resource settings most need help.
Differences in acute COVID-19 associated morbidity based on race, ethnicity, and gender have been well described; however, less is known about differences subsequent longer term health-related quality of life well-being.
<h3>Context:</h3> Persistent pain is experienced among nearly half of the patients with long COVID (LC). However, associated LC has not been well understood and there are no current standardized treatments. <h3>Objective:</h3> To document lived experience pain, including how they access receive healthcare, to improve services for evaluation treatment. <h3>Study Design:</h3> We conducted seven semi-structured focus groups 25 adult who had a positive test, reported as one their primary...
Abstract Aims Alcohol consumption along with negative sequelae from excess alcohol intake increased during the COVID-19 pandemic. We evaluated association between binge use and long-term functional outcomes among COVID-19-positive individuals. Methods Using a prospective, longitudinal, multisite cohort study design, we mental physical using Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS)-29 scores three six months postinfection. Eligible patients were those who presented...
To verify monoplex and multiplex gene-specific linear-after-the-exponential polymerase chain reaction (LATE-PCR) assays for identifying 17 microbial pathogens (i.e., Klebsiella sp., Acinetobacter baumannii, Staphylococcus aureus, Enterobacter Pseudomonas aeruginosa, coagulase negative staphylococci, Enterococcus Candida sp.) commonly associated with septicaemia using clinical isolates.Clinical isolates of each target pathogen were collected from the University California, Davis Medical...
# Beware of Right Renal Vein Valves in Transplanted Kidneys: Valvuloplasty a Donor Kidney {#article-title-2} Here we present an unusual case renal vein thrombectomy after allograft reperfusion secondary to venous outflow obstruction (VOO). While VOO is unfortunate
The 2004 tsunami in Southeast Asia and Hurricane Katrina showed that point-of-care testing (POCT) was both needed feasible acute disaster response follow-up recovery. However, POCT devices made for routine clinical use the consumer market are not adequate conditions. We explain rationale developing field-robust durable single unit-use tests context of 3 "wishes." Then, we challenge inventors, innovators, industry to produce reagents will meet needs rural emergencies care improve preparedness...
