OBJECTIVE To evaluate the impact of real-time continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) on glycemic control and risk hypoglycemia in critically ill patients. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS A total 124 patients receiving mechanical ventilation were randomly assigned to CGM group (n = 63; values given every 5 min) or 61; selective arterial measurements according an algorithm; simultaneously blinded CGM) for 72 h. Insulin infusion rates guided same algorithm both groups. The primary end point was...
Our purpose was to study whether the time target temperature correlates with neurologic outcome in patients after cardiac arrest restoration of spontaneous circulation treated therapeutic mild hypothermia an academic emergency department.Temperature data between April 1995 and June 2008 were collected from 588 analyzed a retrospective cohort by observers blinded outcome. The needed achieve esophageal less than 34°C recorded. Survival neurological outcomes determined within six months...
Drug-induced immunosuppression following kidney transplantation is crucial to prevent allograft rejection, but increases risk for infectious disease. Tailoring of drug dosing both rejection and infection greatly desirable. The apathogenic ubiquitous torque teno virus (TTV) reflects immunocompetence the host might be a potential candidate immunologic monitoring. To assess TTV as an biomarker, load was prospectively quantified in peripheral blood 169 consecutive renal recipients at Medical...
Antibody-mediated rejection (AMR) represents one of the cardinal causes late allograft loss after kidney transplantation, and there is great need for noninvasive tools improving early diagnosis this type. One promising strategy might be quantification peripheral blood DNA levels highly prevalent apathogenic Torque Teno virus (TTV), which mirror overall level immunosuppression thus help determine risk alloimmune response.To assess association between TTV load in AMR, 715 transplant recipients...
The objective of our study was to evaluate the sensitivity and specificity rapid antigen detection tests versus those reverse transcriptase PCR (RT-PCR) using oral, anterior nasal, nasopharyngeal swabs. underlying prospective, diagnostic case-control-type accuracy included 87 hospitalized nonhospitalized participants in a positive negative sample cohort between 16 March 14 May 2021 two hospitals Vienna. SARS-CoV-2 infection status confirmed by RT-PCR. Participants self-performed one oral...
Abstract Background Immunosuppression after kidney transplantation is mainly guided via plasma tacrolimus trough level, which cannot sufficiently predict allograft rejection and infection. The load of the non-pathogenic highly prevalent torque teno virus (TTV) associated with immunosuppression its host. Non-interventional studies suggest use TTV to primary objective current trial demonstrate safety, tolerability preliminary efficacy TTV-guided immunosuppression. Methods For this purpose, a...
Background With the widespread use of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs), there is an urgent need for a rapid assay to exclude clinically relevant plasma levels. Accurate and determination DOAC levels would guide medical decision-making (1) determine potential contribution spontaneous or trauma-induced hemorrhage; (2) identify appropriate candidates reversal, (3) optimize timing surgery intervention. Methods Results The Dipstick test uses disposable strip factor Xa- thrombin inhibitors in...
To evaluate the accuracy of oscillometric blood pressure measurement according to relation between cuff size and upper-arm circumference in critically ill patients.Prospective data collection.Emergency department a 2,000-bed inner city hospital.Thirty-eight patients categorized into three groups their (group I: 18-25 cm; group II: 25.1-33 III: 33.1-47.5 cm) were enrolled study protocol.In each patient, all sizes (Hewlett-Packard Cuff 40401 B, C, D) used perform an at least within 3 mins...
Background and Purpose In animal cardiac arrest studies, outcome has been improved by inducing arterial hypertension early after return of spontaneous circulation. The aim our study was to evaluate whether blood pressure within the first minutes hours circulation influences neurological recovery in human survivors. Methods Of 136 retrospectively evaluated patients sudden death, two groups were defined: group 1, mean (MABP) 5 above 100 mm Hg; 2, MABP Hg or less. Thereafter measured every...
