Abstract Background Accurate molecular diagnostic tests are necessary for confirming a diagnosis of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Direct detection severe acute respiratory syndrome 2 (SARS-CoV-2) nucleic acids in tract specimens informs patient, healthcare institution and public health level decision-making. The numbers available SARS-CoV-2 acid rapidly increasing, as is the COVID-19 literature. Thus, Infectious Diseases Society America (IDSA) recognized significant need frequently...
There is clinical equipoise for COVID-19 convalescent plasma (CCP) use in patients hospitalized with COVID-19.To determine the safety and efficacy of CCP compared placebo receiving noninvasive supplemental oxygen.CONTAIN COVID-19, a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial adults was conducted at 21 US hospitals from April 17, 2020, to March 15, 2021. The enrolled 941 participants who were 3 or less days presented 7 after symptom onset required oxygen supplementation.A unit...
Abstract Immunoassays designed to detect SARS-CoV-2 protein antigens are now commercially available. The most widely used tests rapid lateral flow assays that generate results in ~15 minutes for diagnosis at the point-of-care. Higher throughput, laboratory-based antigen (Ag) have also been developed. overall accuracy of Ag tests, however, is not well defined. Infectious Diseases Society America (IDSA) convened an expert panel perform a systematic review literature and develop best-practice...
ObjectivesOne essential requirement of trustworthy guidelines is that they should be based on systematic reviews the best available evidence. The GRADE Working Group has provided guidance for evaluating certainty evidence several domains. However, many clinical questions, published may limited, too indirect or simply not exist. In this brief report (GRADE notes), we describe our method developing evidence-based recommendations when publisheddirect was lacking.Study Design and SettingWhen...
To determine which interventions are effective in influencing health practitioners' prescribing practices and explore differences intervention complexity, setting, sustainability, cost effectiveness, impact on patient outcomes.A systematic search for English-language reviews was performed MEDLINE, Cumulative Index of Nursing Allied Health Literature, EMBASE, the Cochrane Library from date inception to July 2005 using terms accordance with recommendations. Included were required clearly...
Abstract Accurate molecular diagnostic tests are necessary for confirming a diagnosis of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and identifying asymptomatic carriage severe acute respiratory syndrome 2 (SARS-CoV-2). The number available SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acid detection continues to increase as does the COVID-19 literature. Thus, Infectious Diseases Society America (IDSA) developed an evidence-based guideline assist clinicians, clinical laboratorians, patients, policymakers in decisions related...
Abstract Wiskott–Aldrich Syndrome (WAS) is a triad of immunodeficiency, eczema, and thrombocytopenia. Despite the heterogeneity genetic clinical findings, correlation with small platelet size routinely observed. Herein we describe case unique phenotype that links normal mean volume classic characteristics this disease. The diagnosis was verified by analysis showing novel de novo mutation. Our illustrates high index suspicion WAS warranted even in setting sized platelets. Pediatr Blood Cancer...
Pharmacist-led medication reviews have been shown to improve management, reducing the adverse effects of polypharmacy among older adults. This paper quantitatively examines medications, discrepancies and drug therapy problems recipients in primary care. A convenience sample 16 care team pharmacists Ontario, Canada contributed data for patients with whom they conducted a review over prior four-week period. Data were uploaded using electronic capture forms descriptive analyses completed. Two...
There is a national drug shortage of cefotaxime, and ceftazidime recommended as an alternative to cefotaxime for neonates. This study evaluated culture-positive late-onset sepsis (LOS), multidrug resistant organisms (MDROs), other neonatal outcomes with the use compared in neonates.This was single-center, retrospective cohort subjects who received at least 24 hours or between April 1, 2015, August 2017. Subjects were excluded if they alternate antibiotic more than hours.A total 101 included...
Despite first trimester abortion being common and safe, there are numerousrestrictions that lead to barriers seeking care. The COVID-19 pandemic hasonly exacerbated these barriers, as many state legislators push limit accesseven further. During this pandemic, family physicians across the country haveincorporated telemedicine into their practices continue meet patient needs.Medication can be offered patients by in most states, andmultiple studies have shown labs, imaging, physical exam may...
Objective: Conventional endoscopy remains the gold standard for detecting esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) despite its high cost and need expertise. In resource-poor regions, a less labor-intensive yet accurate screening tool is needed. The purpose of this study to assess feasibility establishing non-endoscopic program in rural India test diagnostic accuracy EsophaCap swallowable sponge ESCC high-risk patient population. Methods: A prospective cohort was conducted between 2017 2019,...
