Objective: To compare the new cardiograph ZLogic for non-invasive measurements of Stroke volume (SV) and Cardiac output (CO) against Minnesota cardiograph. Methods: 86 subjects from both genders, 18-80 years old, hypertensive healthy volunteers were included. Three hemodynamic performed with each device, in an alternate fashion, using Bland-Altman method to determine level agreement. Percentage error was calculated interchangeability methods. Results: Mean SV 86.71±27.35 mL mean CO 5.42±1.74...
Ventilator-associated pneumonia is considered the second most frequent infection in pediatric intensive care, and there agreement on its association with higher morbidity increased healthcare costs. The goal of this study was to apply a bundle for ventilator-associated prevention as process quality improvement PICU Hospital Italiano de Buenos Aires, Argentina, aiming decrease baseline rate by 25% every 6 months over period 2 years.Quasi-experimental uninterrupted time series.PICU...
Background: Mean platelet volume (MPV) is a risk factor for cardiovascular and inflammatory diseases.
Neurologic manifestations in hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia include an increased incidence of brain abscesses and ischemic strokes due to paradoxic embolization addition a wide spectrum symptoms complications typical vascular malformations. Intracranial aneurysms are not part this malformation spectrum. The aim study was determine their prevalence patients with telangiectasia.This single-center, retrospective study. Adult from the institutional Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia...

We report the case of a 45-year-old man with history Klinefelter syndrome undergoing testosterone replacement therapy, and type 2 diabetes treated metformin poor metabolic control. When vildagliptin was added to his treatment, he presented hypoglycemia after injection. highlight this not widely reported drug interaction between hypoglycemic agents testosterone.
Use the PICO format to generate a series of questions, focusing on specificity and sensitivity amyloidosis diagnostic test. PubMed searches were conducted in English Spanish from July August 2019. The level evidence recommendation are based GRADE system (http://www.gradeworkinggroup.org/index.htm). recommendations graded according their direction (for or against) strength (strong weak). Finally, it is recommended use GLIA tools evaluate obstacles facilitators implementation.A strong...
Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis. Experience in 27 patientsBackground: lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is an aggressive and life-threatening syndrome of excessive immune activation Aim: To describe the clinical characteristics, causes survival associated with HLH.Material Methods: Review medical records patients HLH attended between 2004 2016.They were classified according to their probable cause in: immunosuppression, cancer, post-infectious or idiopathic.Kaplan-Meier analysis was...

Under-reporting of adverse drug events (ADEs) is a common issue across healthcare systems, and lack integration with clinical workflow systems are among the leading causes this problem. We sought to describe development an ADEs reporting system within EHR that represents user needs captures relevant data. compared periods before after implementation, corresponding rates.

Since the beginning of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV2) pandemic, there have been many reports increased incidence venous thromboembolism and arterial events as a complication.To determine symptomatic thrombotic (TEs) in patients hospitalized for SARS-CoV2 disease (coronavirus 19 [Covid-19]).A retrospective single-center cohort study with adult positive reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (rt-PCR) SARS-CoV2, included from date diagnosis Covid-19...
The blood pressure measurement method that more accurately predicts a left ventricular mass is controversial, and the evidence suggesting superiority of central over brachial measurements contradictory. aim this study was to compare relationship between different clinic out-of-clinic methods with in patients who attended specialised hypertension centre for measurement. An analysis performed on correlations made clinic, home, as well 24-h systolic measurements. A linear regression then assess...
