Abstract Background Lung ultrasound has demonstrated its usefulness in several respiratory diseases management. One derived score, the Ultrasound (LUS) is considered a good outcome predictor patients with Acute Respiratory Failure (ARF). Nevertheless, it not been tested undergoing non-invasive support (NIRS). Taking this into account, aim of study to evaluate LUS score as 90-day mortality, ETI (Endotracheal intubation) and HFNC (High Flow Nasal Cannula) failure ARF due COVID-19 admitted...
Stroke is the third leading cause of death in Argentina, yet little information exists on acute treatment provided for stroke or its costs. This study estimates national costs first-ever intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) and ischemic (IS) Argentina.Retrospective hospital-based inception design using data resource use from high-volume centers published population-based incidence data. Treatment at two large urban hospitals were evaluated all patients admitted with a between 1 January 2004 31...
<h3>BACKGROUND:</h3> The roles of high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) and CPAP in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) are controversial. objective the study was to evaluate impact application a noninvasive respiratory support algorithm on clinical outcomes subjects with COVID-19 acute failure. <h3>METHODS:</h3> We performed single-center prospective observational failure from managed HFNC plus (combined therapy). main outcome intubation rate, which defined therapy. also analyzed role ROX index...
To establish the prevalence of delirium in a general intensive care unit and to identify associated factors, clinical expression influence on outcomes.This was prospective cohort study medical surgical unit. The Richmond Agitation-Sedation Scale Confusion Assessment Method for Intensive Care Unit were used daily mechanically ventilated patients.In this series, 80% (N = 184 delirious patients out 230 patients). number according psychomotor subtypes as follows: 11 hyperactive (6%), 9...
Cognitive impairment after critical illness (CIACI) is a frequent consequence of serious disease or injury that has been reported in as many 66 % patients, 3 months an requiring intensive care unit hospitalisation. The condition recognised only within the past 15 years and its pathological mechanisms are, yet, incompletely understood. neurological changes cellular inflammatory processes CIACI overlap with those stroke, traumatic brain neurodegenerative disorders. Patients also show atrophy,...
The aim of this study was to evaluate if Hyperventilation (HV) could avoid the Intracranial Pressure (ICP) peak that occurs during Fiberoptic Bronchoscopy (FB) in severely head injured patients. A Cerebral Perfusion (CPP) > 75 mmHg maintained 34 patients, with a subgroup randomized receive controlled HV FB. Measurements were done before procedure, maximum ICP values and 30 minutes after group had minor FB, without differences CPP values.
We report a case of traumatic brain injury treated with Cerebrolysin, neurorecovery stimulating agent. Our therapeutic approach was based on the pathophysiology and, in particular, diffuse axonal injury. The patient registered marked improvement mood and cognitive performance, indicating effectiveness multimodal multidisciplinary interventions after
