Glioblastoma (GB) is a deadly and aggressive cancer of the CNS. Even with extensive resection chemoradiotherapy, patient survival still only 15 months. To maintain growth proliferation, cells require high oxidative state. Curcumin, well-known anti-inflammatory antioxidant, potential candidate for treatment GB. facilitate efficient delivery therapeutic doses curcumin into cells, we encapsulated drug in surface-modified polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimers. We studied vitro effectiveness...
Point-of-care ultrasound (PoCUS) has a potentially vital role to play in emergency medicine (EM), whether it be high-, medium-, or low-resourced settings. However, numerous barriers are present which impede EM PoCUS implementation nationally and globally: (i) lack of national practice guideline scope for PoCUS, (ii) resistance from non-PoCUS users imaging (USI) awareness those who undertake parallel post-EM patient care, (iii) heterogeneous pattern resources available different institutes...
Patients with difficult peripheral intravenous (IV) access are common in emergency departments (EDs). Ultrasound-guided catheters (USIVs) frequently used this population; however, information regarding the effect of patient and IV characteristics on dwell time (DT) survival probability (SP) USIVs is limited.Our study aimed to evaluate for associations between or DT SP USIVs.Retrospective analysis was performed a database from an ED nurse (RN) USIV training program at urban, academic...
Introduction: This study evaluated a chlorhexidine-coated peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) and the incidence of associated complications within both inpatient outpatient populations. Methods: IRB-approved, multicenter, prospective observational was performed at three large teaching hospitals in US. All adults who required PICC for ⩾14 days were considered. Patients monitored throughout entire dwell. Duplex venous ultrasounds before insertion, after 10 to 14 dwell time, upon...
Introduction: Use of Point-of-Care Ultrasound (US) has grown considerably in resource-limited and wilderness environments because a combination features, including portability, durability, safety. However, the optimal method powering US devices such is not well established. Aim: This project following aims: 1. Develop solar power generation storage system that maximizes capacity minimizes weight while being easily transportable by single person. 2. Test real-world environment to evaluate...
Objective: Traditional treatment of abscesses in the emergency department includes packing with gauze; however, this can add pain and discomfort to procedure frequently involves a follow-up visit for removal. Alternatives gauze have been proposed, but they may disadvantages context care. The objective pilot study was investigate use novel silicone device — Derma-Stent. Methods: This randomized controlled 50 patients from two urban departments uncomplicated superficial abscesses. primary...
Introduction: Point of care ultrasound evaluates inferior vena cava (IVC) collapsibility and internal jugular vein (IJV) to estimate intravascular volume status at the bedside. The reliability IVC IJV index in setting increased thoracic or intra-abdominal pressure remains unclear. Hypothesis: correlate irrespective changes for patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery. Methods: IRB approved prospective, observational study an urban, academic tertiary center Three phases sonographic scanning...
