Rationale: Postoperative pneumonia is three to four times more frequent in patients with alcohol use disorders followed by prolonged intensive care unit (ICU) stay. Long-term leads an altered perioperative hypothalamus–pituitary–adrenal (HPA) axis and immunity.Objectives: The aim of this study was evaluate HPA intervention low-dose ethanol, morphine, or ketoconazole on the neuroendocrine–immune development postoperative long-term alcoholic patients.Methods: In randomized, double-blind...
Abstract Medical interventions often require timed series of doses, thus necessitating accurate medical record-keeping. In many global settings, these records are unreliable or unavailable at the point care, leading to less effective treatments disease prevention. Here we present an invisible-to-the-naked-eye on-patient record-keeping technology that accurately stores information in patient skin as part microneedles used for intradermal therapeutics. We optimize microneedle design both a...
Abstract Background: Intravenous correction of iron deficiency by total dose polymaltose is inexpensive and safe, but current protocols entail prolonged administration over more than 4 h. This results in reduced patient acceptance, hospital resource strain. We aimed to assess prospectively the safety a rapid intravenous protocol compare this with historical controls. Methods: Consecutive patients whom replacement was indicated were invited have up 1.5 g 58‐min infusion after an initial...
A survey of physics instructors shows that self-reported knowledge and use research-based instructional strategies has increased, but strategy is centered on pedagogies designed to help a lecture-based classroom.
Objective: In health promotion studies, young age, male gender, low education, and substance use have been found to be relevant predictors of loss follow-up. The purpose this study was assess factors follow-up after screening tailored brief advice for alcohol problems in an emergency department setting. Method: A randomized controlled intervention conducted followed up at 12 months. At baseline (T0), 2,562 consecutive trauma patients (62.1% male) were screened (smoking, consumption, illicit...
Objectives This prospective observational study investigated whether self-reported psychological distress and alcohol use problems of surgical patients change between preoperative baseline assessment postoperative 6-month follow-up examination. Patients with interest in psychotherapy were compared without psychotherapy. Methods A total 1,157 consecutive from various fields completed a set psychiatric questionnaires preoperatively at 6 months postoperatively, including Patient Health...
Abstract Microplastic pollution is a pressing global crisis caused by the extensive use of nondegradable microplastic materials in daily activities. One effective approach to mitigate this issue replace plastics with degradable that have properties amendable for targeted applications. Here we present development microparticle (MP) platform based on poly(β-amino ester) (PAE) degrades into sugar and amino acid derivatives. This PAE MP showed functional replacement microplastics used cleansing...
Abstract Background: The stepped care program Bridging Intervention in Anesthesiology (BRIA) aims at motivating and supporting surgical patients with comorbid mental disorders to engage psychosocial healthcare options. This study examined the efficacy of BRIA. Methods: randomized, parallel-group, open-label, controlled trial was conducted preoperative anesthesiological assessment clinics wards a large university hospital Germany. A total 220 were randomized by using computer-generated lists...
Major surgery is associated with an increased risk of post-operative immunosuppression and infections. We investigated the influence influenza vaccination on cell-mediated immune responses in cancer patients undergoing either surgical or conservative therapy. Forty upper aerodigestive tract tumour were allocated to a non-surgical treatment course. Patients within each group randomized non-vaccination group. Vaccination was performed twice before treatment. Human leucocyte antigen receptor...
Perioperative low-dose ethanol infusion is a feasible option for stress reduction and prophylaxis of alcoholism-associated complications. Because alcohol has inhibitory effects on hemostasis, our study focused the effect perioperative bleeding complications, defined as transfused blood units reoperations, in alcoholic patients undergoing major surgery. We included 44 long-term scheduled tumor resection aerodigestive gastrointestinal tract. Patients were randomly assigned to or control group....
<b>Hintergrund:</b> Die Aufgaben der Prämedikationsvisite umfasst neben einer detaillierten Aufklärung des Patienten, auch die Evaluation relevanter Vorerkrankungen für Narkoseplanung. Dies gestaltet sich im täglichen Ablauf insbesondere bei kränkeren Patienten schwierig. Zum Teil unvollständig ausgefüllte Aufklärungsbögen, nicht oder durchgeführte Untersuchungen sowie fehlende Befunde sind wesentlichen Faktoren, eine suffiziente und zeitnahe präoperative Risikoeinschätzung Narkoseplanung...
Aktuell sind das Fehlen von Voruntersuchungen und Aufzeichnungen bereits erhaltener Anästhesieverfahren häufig erschweren eine risikoadaptierte Aufklärung. Diese Form der Patientenaufklärung unterliegt starken interindividuellen Schwankungen stellt damit für die Qualititässicherung Herausforderung dar. Unzureichende oder nicht abgeschlossene Prämedikationen können zum kurzfristigen Absetzen eines Wahleingriffs führen. Die Anästhesieanamnese in webbasierter verlegt den Zeitpunkt des...
This document supports a proposed APS statement that encourages academic, research, and other institutions to add the participation in informal science education activities criteria they use for hiring career advancement decisions. There is prevalent attitude time spent by researcher on these takes away from research efforts are more valued their peers institution. To change this mindset, we enumerate many benefits of public, researchers, institutions, field physics. We also suggest aspects...
A survey of 722 physics faculty conducted in 2008 found that many instructors had knowledge research-based instructional strategies (RBISs), were interested using more, but often discontinued use after trying. Considerable effort has been made during the decade following to develop and disseminate RBISs as well change culture within community value other forms student-centered instruction. This paper uses data from a 2019 1176 understand current state RBIS college-level introductory physics,...
