Background/Purpose Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a respiratory that results in progressive airflow limitation and distress. Physiopathological features of COPD suggest people who suffer from this have many risk factors for falls been identified older individuals. The aim the study was to compare quantify functional balance between patients healthy subjects; investigate acute stages identify could lead falls. Methods We studied 46 with moderate-severe (29 stable 17...
Background/Purpose Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), especially in severe forms, is commonly associated with multiple cognitive problems. Montreal Cognitive Assessment test (MoCA) used to detect impairment evaluating several areas: visuospatial, memory, attention and fluency. Our study aim was evaluate the impact of stable COPD exacerbation (AECOPD) phases on status using MoCA questionnaire. Methods We enrolled 39 patients (pts), smokers group D (30 9 AECOPD) 13 healthy subjects...
Background: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a progressive lung characterized by significant physical and psychological burdens. However, the influence of disease’s severity on factors functional outcomes remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate impact in patients with moderate severe COPD. Methods: cross-sectional included 98 (n = 44) or 54) Anxiety depression, guilt shame, self-compassion, self-efficacy (PRAISE), fear negative evaluation were assessed. Functional...
Acinetobacter baumannii is one of the main causes morbidity and mortality in critical condition patients. The pathogen's ability to survive under a wide range environment conditions persist for long periods time on areas represents frequent cause endemic infection hotbeds especially Intensive Care Unit. objectives study are: determining 5-year incidence A. patients admitted ICU which needed mechanical ventilation; analysis these cases regarding pathological antecedents; processing data...
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is an increasingly frequent disorder that likely to become the third leading cause of morbidity worldwide. It significantly degrades quality life patients affected and poses a significant financial burden healthcare systems providing treatment rehabilitation. Consequently, our study’s purpose was compare conventional inpatient rehabilitation (PR) with virtual (online) PR using mobile phone application. During three-month period, two groups...
Background/objective: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a respiratory that results in airflow limitation and distress, also having many nonrespiratory manifestations affect both function mobility. Preliminary evidence suggests balance deficits constitute an important secondary impairment individuals with COPD. Our objective was to investigate performance two groups of COPD patients different body compositions observe which these are more likely experience falls the future....
Background and Objectives: Improving extrapulmonary symptoms in COPD through respiratory muscle training can help alleviate the burden of symptoms, reduce fatigue, improve exercise capacity patients with COPD. This, turn, enhance physical activity, balance, gait, ultimately improving overall quality life for individuals This study aimed to investigate effects on balance gait moderate severe Materials Methods: We included 65 randomly assigned either pulmonary rehabilitation protocol group...
Abstract In the context of designing a new curriculum, paper addresses tension between integrating all subjects in an exploring- theme approach and subject-based approach. Given complexity curriculum reform, this opposite tension, faced by most current day change processes, cannot should not be addressed firm option for one solutions, rather balance extremes adopted well informed decisions at conceptual-curricular, institutional strategic levels. We discuss solution that keeps but creates...
Abstract Background Tuberculous meningitis (TBM) represents a diagnostic and management challenge to clinicians. The “ Thwaites’ system” “Lancet consensus scoring are utilized differentiate TBM from bacterial but their utility in subacute chronic where is an important consideration unknown. Methods A multicenter retrospective study of adults with meningitis, defined by symptoms greater than 5 days less 30 for (SAM) (CM). “Thwaites’ scores the accuracy sensitivity, specificity, area under...
The recent emergence of Clostridium difficile infections has included this condition among top nosocomial infections, due to its incidence, complications and important fatality, as well significant economic costs.A prospective surveillance study enterocolitis cases was performed in "Victor Babeş" Infectious Diseases Hospital Timişoara (Romania) between 01.01.2013 - 30.06.2014, estimate the incidence investigate risk factors for unfavourable outcome relapse. Dichotomous variables were...

Aims: There is no report on the factors affecting resolution of symptoms related to meningitis during treatment tuberculous (TBM). Thus, we examined associated with early therapeutic responses.Materials and Methods: This multicenter study included 507 patients microbiologically confirmed TBM. However, 94 eligible for analysis were in this from 24 centers. Six out died statistical was performed 88 survivors. Early late responder groups compared analysis. P < 0.05 considered show a significant...

Pulmonary rehabilitation programme (PRP) have a positive impact on multiple outcomes of COPD, such as decreasing symptoms, increasing exercise tolerance and improving general health status. The aim this study is to evaluate impairment assess the PRP in status patients diagnosed with COPD. It was conducted prospective parallel group Rehabilitation Department Clinical Hospital "V. Babes”, Timisoara, from 2007 2010. subjects included were COPD stages I-IV GOLD, initially evaluated started PRP,...
