BACKGROUND: Pharmacological treatments for critical processes in patients need to be initiated as rapidly possible; this reason, it is a standard of care prepare the main anesthesia and emergency drugs advance. As result, 20%–50% prepared remain unused are then discarded. Decreasing waste by optimizing drug use an attractive strategy meeting both cost containment environmental sustainability. The primary end point study was measure actual amount wastage operating rooms (ORs) intensive units...
This paper reports the beneficial effects of ozone autohemotherapy (OHT) in 2 patients afflicted with painful, intractable leg ulcers. One patient had diabetes mellitus type II (DM), other vasculitis. Both seen multiple specialists, including a dermatologist, an internist, and vascular surgeon, but their clinical course continued to worsen. When pain became intolerable, came our clinic. Chemical lumbar sympathectomy as well epidural blockade bupivacaine morphine were moderately effective...
The hypothesis that high level on-the-field ATLS could influence mortality in severe trauma patients was tested by means of a prospective study. During 7 month period, data all the victims involuntary (road traffic accidents, work and sport accidents) 3 Provinces north-east Italy were entered database analysed. whole area is covered single emergency service which has direct control over ambulances Emergency Helicopter Service (EMHS). concerned study surface 7, 300 kmq with population 1...
Nitrogen balance (NB) is considered a good marker of adequate protein intake and it has been suggested to be predictor patients' health outcomes. However, in literature, there lack large randomized trials examining NB-guided patients intensive care units (ICUs). A controlled trial enrolling admitted ICU was done compare changes NB. Participants were standard or protein-fortified diet (protein 1.8 g/kg/day according the guidelines Society Critical Care Medicine American for Parenteral Enteral...
Tocilizumab is widely being used to treat COVID-19. Although reducing systemic inflammation, it also increases the risk for secondary infections as a result of immunosuppression produced. We report case 69-year-old patient admitted ICU with severe respiratory distress caused by COVID-19 pneumonia who developed pulmonary aspergillosis. On basis these findings, we suggest early testing aspergillosis in patients treated tocilizumab.
The objective of this prospective, randomized, double-blind study was to evaluate the effect addition mupirocin 'classical' topical SDD regimen (tobramycin 80 mg, polymyxin E 100 amphotericin B 500 mg) on development ICU-acquired infections due Gram-positive bacteria. carried out in an intensive care unit (ICU) a 1400-bed community hospital. All patients admitted ICU during 16-month period, who were expected require mechanical ventilation for more than 24 hours, randomized receive either...
To study the effect of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) on right ventricular hemodynamics and ejection fraction in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease alveolar throughout expiration by dynamic hyperinflation (auto-PEEP).Open, prospective, controlled trial.General intensive care unit a community hospital.Ten sedated paralyzed an acute exacerbation undergoing mechanical ventilation.Insertion artery catheter modified rapid response thermistor radial arterial catheter....
The endotracheal tube cuff pressure must be maintained within an optimal range of 20-30 cmH2O, which ensures ventilation, prevents aspiration secretions and guarantees a good tracheal perfusion.To describe changes in the over time through continuous monitoring device, assess number nursing actions.Observation 72 patients admitted to general ICU monitored for 12 hours, with continuos device (PressureEasy(®)).During first four hours 4 cases (5.6%) underinflated were observed, 5 (6.9%)...
To evaluate the incidence of postoperative complications arising within 30 days minimally invasive esophagectomy in prone position with total lung ventilation and their relationship 30-day 1-year mortality. Secondary outcomes included possible anesthesia-related factors linked to development complications.The study is a retrospective single-center observational at Anesthesia Surgical Department tertiary care center northeast Italy. Patients underwent cancer resection through without one-lung...
Background: The reporting and analysing of data out-of-hospital cardiac arrests encourages the quality improvement emergency medical services. For this reason, establishment a sufficiently large patient database is intended to allow analysis resuscitation treatments for performances different Aims: aim study was describe demographics, characteristics, outcomes determinant factors survival patients who suffered an arrest. Methods: retrospective including all arrest cases treated by service in...
Abstract Objective Approximately 5% of patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) develop a life-threatening pneumonia that often occurs in the setting increased inflammation or “cytokine storm”. Anti-cytokine treatments are being evaluated but optimal patient selection remains unclear, and aim our study is to address this point. Methods Between February 29 April 6, 2020, 111 consecutive hospitalized COVID-19 were single centre retrospective study. Patients divided two groups: 42...
Resection of brain tumors may cause neurological sequelae, according to the site and size tissue removed. Awake craniotomy has been proposed as a surgical approach satisfy criteria radical surgery while minimizing eloquent damage. The most critical aspect awake is maintain adequate patient comfort, analgesia, immobility cooperation during long operation, ensuring in meanwhile safety, control maintenance vital functions. Apart from pharmacological, surgical, technical knowledge...
Low, minimal flow and closed circuit anesthesia has been pursued since the beginning of history anesthesia. For many decades this form restricted to devoted enthusiasts those very fond gas kinetics. most clinicians, selecting a fresh higher than 3-5 L/min was widely accepted as routine technique. The introduction onto market new volatile agents well advanced machines accompanied by highly reliable monitoring systems, made or system feasible on daily basis. Clinical, cultural, environmental,...
