CytoSorb® (CS) adsorbent is a hemoadsorption filter for extracorporeal blood purification often integrated into continuous kidney replacement therapy (CKRT). It primarily used in critically ill patients with sepsis and related conditions, including cytokine storms systemic inflammatory responses. Up to now, there no evidence nor recommendation the use of CS filters (22). There limited clinical data on effect plasma concentrations beta-lactams. We aimed evaluate statistical impact post-filter...
OBJECTIVES: To investigate the effect of extracorporeal cytokine reduction by CytoSorb (CytoSorbents, Monmouth Junction, NJ) on COVID-19–associated vasoplegic shock. DESIGN: Prospective, randomized controlled pilot study. SETTING: Eight ICUs at three sites tertiary-care university hospital Charité—Universitätsmedizin Berlin. PATIENTS: COVID-19 patients with shock requiring norepinephrine greater than 0.2 µg/kg/min, C-reactive protein 100 mg/L, and indication for hemodialysis. INTERVENTIONS:...
Junior doctors do not feel well prepared when they start into postgraduate training. High self-efficacy however is linked to better clinical performance and may thus improve patient care. What factors affect currently unknown. We conducted a simulated night shift in an emergency room (ER) with final-year medical students identify contributing their inform simulation training the ER. ER using best educational practice including multi-source feedback, patients vicarious learning 30...
<h3>Introduction</h3> Medical errors have an incidence of 9% and may lead to worse patient outcome. Teamwork training has the capacity significantly reduce medical therefore improve One common framework for teamwork is crisis resource management, adapted from aviation usually trained in simulation settings. Debriefing after thought be crucial learning teamwork-related concepts behaviours but it remains unclear how best debrief these aspects. Furthermore, teamwork-training sessions studies...
Introduction: Preventable mistakes occur frequently and can lead to patient harm death. The emergency department (ED) is notoriously prone such errors, evidence suggests that improving teamwork a key aspect reduce the rate of error in acute care settings. Only few strategies are place train team skills communication interprofessional situations. Our goal was conceptualize, implement, evaluate training module for students three professions involved care. objective sensitize participants...
Training in teamwork behaviour improves technical resuscitation performance. However, its effect on patient outcome is less clear, partly because difficult to measure. Furthermore, it unknown who should evaluate it. In clinical practice, experts are obliged participate efforts and thus unavailable assess quality. Consequently, we sought determine if raters with little experience provide comparable evaluations of behaviour. Novice expert judged during 6 emergency medicine simulations using...
Wrong and missed diagnoses contribute substantially to medical error. Can a prompt generate alternative (prompt) or differential diagnosis checklist (DDXC) increase diagnostic accuracy? How do these interventions affect the process self-monitoring?Advanced students (N = 90) were randomly assigned one of four conditions complete six computer-based patient cases: group 1 was instructed write down all they considered while acquiring test results finally rank them. Groups 2 3 received same...
BACKGROUND 64% of young medical professionals in Germany do not feel adequately prepared for the practical requirements profession. The goal outcome-orientated training is to structure curricula based on skills needed when entering workforce after completing undergraduate education, and thus bridge gap between graduates have attained those necessary a career Outcome frameworks (OFs) are used this purpose. In preparation developing National Competence-Based Catalogue Learning Objectives...
The use of response formats in assessments medical knowledge and clinical reasoning continues to be the focus both research debate. In this article, we report on an experimental study which address question how much list-type selected short-essay type constructed are related differences test takers approach tasks. design was informed by a framework developed within cognitive psychology stresses importance interplay between two components reasoning-self-monitoring inhibition-while solving...
Adverse events in patient care are often caused by failures teamwork. Simulation training and its debriefing can contribute to improving teamwork thus care. When conducting debriefings, there several design factors that potentially influence learning outcomes. This study examines the use of a cognitive aid help structure content debriefings compares it with merely roughly structured. In addition, feasibility debriefing, satisfaction participants their during investigated.
Background: Several observations indicate a hyperinflammatory state in severely ill COVID-19 patients. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect extracorporeal cytokine elimination by CytoSorb® on associated vasoplegic shock.Methods: In prospective randomised pilot patients with shock requiring norepinephrine >0·2 µg/kg/min, CRP >100 mg/L and indication for hemodialysis were 1:1 receive treatment 3-7 days or standard care. primary endpoint time until resolution shock, estimated...
