While the role of acute non-invasive ventilation (NIV) has been shown to improve outcome in life-threatening hypercapnic respiratory failure COPD, evidence clinical efficacy long-term home NIV (LTH-NIV) for management COPD is less. This document provides evidence-based recommendations application LTH-NIV chronic patients.The European Respiratory Society task force committee was composed clinicians, methodologists and experts field LTH-NIV. The developed based on GRADE (Grading,...
High-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) has become a frequently used noninvasive form of respiratory support in acute settings; however, evidence supporting its use only recently emerged. These guidelines provide evidence-based recommendations for the HFNC alongside other forms adults with failure (ARF).The European Respiratory Society task force panel included expert clinicians and methodologists pulmonology intensive care medicine. The GRADE (Grading Recommendations, Assessment, Development...
Abstract Clinical question What is the role of remdesivir in treatment severe covid-19? This guideline was triggered by ACTT-1 trial published New England Journal Medicine on 22 May 2020. Current practice Remdesivir has received worldwide attention as a potentially effective for covid-19. After rapid market approval US, already being used clinical practice. Recommendations The panel makes weak recommendation use covid-19 while recommending continuation active enrolment patients into ongoing...
Rationale In patients with COVID-19 pneumonia and mild hypoxaemia, the clinical benefit of high-flow nasal oxygen (HFNO) remains unclear. We aimed to examine whether HFNO compared conventional therapy (COT) could prevent escalation respiratory support in this patient population. Methods multicentre, randomised, parallel-group, open-label trial, peripheral saturation (SpO 2 ) ≤92% who required were randomised or COT. The primary outcome was rate (ie, continuous positive airway pressure,...
Exacerbations of COPD (ECOPD) have a major impact on patients and healthcare systems across the world. Precise estimates global burden ECOPD mortality hospital readmission are needed to inform policy makers aid preventive strategies mitigate this burden. The aims present study were explore in-hospital mortality, post-discharge rates after ECOPD-related hospitalisation using an individual patient data meta-analysis (IPDMA) design.
Abstract Background Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a frequent complication in critically ill patients, who often have multiple risk factors. Pharmacological thromboprophylaxis widely applied to lower this risk, but guidelines lack dosing recommendations. Objective This survey aims assess current preferences and willingness participate future randomized clinical trials (RCTs) on topic. Method We conducted an international online between February May 2023 among intensive care unit (ICU)...
Because of the widespread use CT in diagnosis COVID 19, indeterminate presentations such as single, few or unilateral lesions amount to a considerable number. We aimed develop new classification and structured reporting system on imaging (COVID-19 S) that would facilitate COVID-19 most accurate way.
This rapid practice guideline provides evidence-based recommendations for the use of awake proning in adult patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure due to COVID-19. The panel included 20 experts from 12 countries, including one patient representative, and used a strict conflict interest policy potential financial intellectual conflicts interest. Methodological support was provided by guidelines intensive care, development, evaluation (GUIDE) group. Based on an updated systematic...
Abstract Introduction Use of albumin is suggested for some patients with shock, but preferences its use may vary among intensive care unit (ICU) physicians. Methods We conducted an international online survey ICU physicians 20 questions about their and opinion towards a randomised trial adults shock comparing the versus no albumin. Results A total 1248 respondents participated, mean response rate 37%, ranging from 18% to 75% across 21 countries. Respondents mainly worked in mixed ICUs 92%...
Mortality in critically ill patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is high, therefore, it essential to evaluate the independent effect of new-onset atrial fibrillation (NOAF) on mortality COVID-19. We aimed determine incidence, risk factors, and outcomes NOAF a cohort COVID-19.We conducted retrospective study admitted intensive care unit (ICU) diagnosis was defined as that detected after COVID-19 without prior history. The primary outcome patients.NOAF incidence 14.9% (n = 37),...
An increased risk of cardiovascular complications has been defined in community-acquired pneumonia (CAP), but limited data is available for patients with severe CAP.The aim the present study was to define prevalence, characteristics, factors and impact on mortality acute cardiac events CAP during short long term.This investigation a multicenter, retrospective cohort sudy CAP. Cardiac were as arrhytmia, congestive heart failure myocardial infarction. A logistic regression analysis performed...
Procalcitonin (PCT) is being used as a marker of bacterial infections. Although there are several studies showing the diagnostic yield PCT to differentiate involvement in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease exacerbations (COPDE), prognostic severe COPDE has been studied less.The primary aim was determine whether level serum at admission serves biomarker for hospital mortality. The secondary role identifying exacerbation.A total 63 patients (median age 71 years; male 58.7%) were...
Background/aim: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a with high rate of progression to critical illness. However, the predictors mortality in critically ill patients admitted intensive care unit (ICU) are not yet well understood. In this study, we aimed investigate risk factors associated ICU our hospital. Materials and methods: single-centered retrospective enrolled 86 adult COVID-19 Dokuz Eylül University Hospital (İzmir, Turkey) between 18 March 2020 31 October 2020. Data on...
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is an important public health problem that manifests with exacerbations and causes serious mortality morbidity in both developed developing countries. COPD usually present to emergency departments, where these patients are diagnosed treated. Therefore, the Emergency Medicine Association of Turkey Turkish Thoracic Society jointly wanted implement a guideline evaluates management according current literature provides evidence-based recommendations....
