Objetivo: Mapear as intervenções de enfermagem realizadas para avaliação e tratamento lesão por pressão em pessoas idosas hospitalizadas. Método: Scoping review, com buscas entre março abril 2024, na cidade João Pessoa/ Paraíba/ Brasil, conforme o método definido pelo The Joanna Briggs Institute, nas bases dados: Medline/ PubMed, Embase, LILACS, CINAHL, Scopus, Cochrane, Web of Science, BDENF, ProQuest Dissertations & Theses Global Google Scholar, sem restrição idioma limite tempo....
Aims In the current literature, some series showed similar results between a PEG solution and clear liquid diet on day before CE. The aim of this study was to compare Brotz´s enteral cleansing scales two enteric preparation protocols in patients undergoing
Aims The European Society of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ESGE) small-bowel working group identified a list performance measures for endoscopy with the final goal quality improvement. aim this study is to analyze device assisted enteroscopy (DAE) at service level.
Purpose Intracranial hypertension secondary to internal jugular vein (IJV) thrombosis has been described in patients undergoing hemodialysis with peripheral shunts or repeated subclavian and veins catheterizations. Pseudotumor cerebri, no identified IJV also reported dialysis associated chronic recurrent disequilibrium. We aim report the case of a patient papilledema bilateral thrombosis. Methods Case fundus photography, optical coherence tomography, perimetry, brain imaging venography,...
# 39 Diagnostic difficulties of a vasculitis caused by uncommon cardiovascular manifestation {#article-title-2} Although pericardial effusion is common finding in the echocardiographic laboratory, many cases etiology remains unexplored. Sometimes, careful investigation, treatable condition can be diagnosed. A 68-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital with one-year-long history dyspnea on exertion, leg swelling and dull chest pain. The patient lost 30 kg weight year. year before, due...
Data on the long-term outcomes after a false-negative enteroscopy in obscure gastrointestinal bleeding (OGIB), following capsule endoscopy (CE) with positive findings is scarce.
Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is the first-line procedure to iatrogenic biliary leaks approach. In patients who have undergone stenting, timing and optimal method of stent removal (ERCP/esophagogastroduodenoscopy) controversial. The present study aimed evaluate ERCP efficacy in treatment identify whom repetition may be unnecessary.
The SMSA (size, morphology, site, access) scoring system allows stratification of the complexity endoscopic mucosal resections (EMR). However, influence other lesion characteristics in EMR outcomes is widely recognized. aim this study was to develop a modified with complementary and determine its accuracy prediction complications EMR.
Capsule endoscopy (CE) is the first-line diagnostic method in obscure GI bleeding (OGIB). Balloon-assisted enteroscopy may also be weighted, however, its use not always necessary. Uchida et al. score recently described for need after CE OGIB, includes type of OGIB (occult/manifest), blood transfusion and findings. The present study aims to evaluate validate proposed as discriminator OGIB.
The Express-View mode of the Mirocam capsule endoscopy (CE) platform is a newly introduced feature that aims to decrease reading time by not capturing small bowel (SB) images considered repetitive. There no evidence yet its use can replace conventional reading. authors aimed evaluate proportion lesions detected Express-view mode.
A score to predict the indication for small bowel capsule endoscopy (SBCE) in patients with suspected Crohn's disease (CD) was proposed 2006 at International Conference on Capsule Endoscopy (ICCE). The Lewis and Disease Activity Index (CECDAI) scores are most used endoscopic evaluate inflammatory activity SBCE. authors aimed usefulness of ICCE criteria severity CD
Piecemeal endoscopic mucosal resection (pEMR) allows the of larger non-invasive colorectal lesions. Prediction histological recurrence (HR), as determined in first surveillance colonoscopy, is still a limitation. The recently described SERT score (Sydney EMR-recurrence tool) can predict (ER), however it was not evaluated predictor HR. present study aimed to validate ER and HR compare with SMSA (size, morphology, site, access) already validated predictor.
Aims The European society of gastrointestinal endoscopy (ESGE) small-bowel working group identified a list performance measures for with the final goal quality improvement. aim this study is to analyze small bowel capsule (SBCE) at service level.
Aims Barrett’s Esophagus survaillance is performed with random 4-quadrant biopsy every-2cm to detect dysplasia complemented targeted biopsies of suspicious lesions - Seattle Protocol. The main limitations are sampling error and costs associated histology. aim was compare diagnostic yield, defined by in the histology, biopsies.
Aims Piecemeal endoscopic mucosal resection (pEMR) allows of larger non-invasive colorectal lesions. Adenoma recurrence is an important limitation and occurs in≤20%. It unclear whether scar assessment after pEMR has to include biopsy in the absence suspected recurrence. The present study aimed evaluate interobserver agreement adenoma based on assessment, among non-experts EMR.
Aims Cholangitis is a rare complication in patients with biliary stents and associated mortality rate of 5-10%. The present study aims to evaluate predictive factors cholangitis after stent placement
Aims Adenoma detection rate (ADR) is the proportion of screening colonoscopy patients who are found to have at least one adenoma. ADR has been inversely associated with risk CRC and death. However little known about correlation adenoma other non-neoplasic findings. The aim this study was evaluate if a higher
