Admitting patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD) to the ICU is controversial, due their associated high mortality when they require invasive mechanical ventilation. We aimed determine risk factors for in ILD requiring support acute respiratory failure.An observational cohort study was performed 2 chest diseases teaching hospitals. included all failure admitted between 2008 and 2010. Subject demographics, noninvasive ventilation (NIV) use, were obtained from medical records. Subjects...
To compare the effects of a home-based pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) program with and without telecoaching on health-related outcomes in COVID-19 survivors.A total 42 patients who completed medical treatment were randomly divided into two groups: study (telecoaching) group (n = 21) control (no telecoaching) 21). Both groups participated an 8-week PR including education, breathing exercises, strength training, regular walking. The received phone calls from physiotherapist once week. assessed...
Prior researches have showed that weaning protocols may decrease the duration of mechanical ventilation. The effect these on chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients is unknown. purpose this study was to evaluate impact an extensive ventilation protocol including applied by a respiratory therapist (RT) and intensive care unit (ICU) stay in COPD patients.A novel developed initiated for all intubated therapist. Outcomes treated using during 6-month period were compared those...
The influence of meteorological conditions on cardiovascular morbidity and mortality has been known for a long time. However, few reports have published the parameters occurrence acute pulmonary embolism (PE).In this retrospective study, we compared between PE patients with risk factors idiopathic patients.Cross-sectional study.Medical documentation 1180 suspected diagnosed January 2010 December 2012 was retrospectively analyzed. A total 530 confirmed by computed tomography angiography...
Influenza A (H1N1) caused its first pandemic in 2009 USA and Mexico. Since then, clinicians have exercised great care order to make an early diagnosis of viral pneumonias. This is due part influenza infection having greater impact on populations <65 years old than other strains, including seasonal influenza. Chest radiographies those affected displayed a rapid progression patchy infiltrates, large proportion individuals required admission intensive units (ICU). Despite efforts, patients...
Background/aim: Cancer patients frequently need intensive care support due to respiratory failure. We aimed evaluate the predictors of mortality in cancer who were admitted unit (ICU). Materials and methods: This study was performed ICUs two centers between 1 January 2008 31 December 2015. Demographic data, type, causes failure, comorbidities, APACHE II scores, treatments, rates recorded. Results: A total number 583 (477 males) enrolled from centers. Of those, 472 had lung (81%), while 111...
We aimed to obtain information about the characteristics of ICUs in our country via a point prevalence study.
Hypoxemic respiratory failure due to influenza pneumonia during epidemic seasons sometimes may require mechanical ventilation support and intensive care unit (ICU) stay. We aimed evaluate the characteristics risk factors of patients admitted our ICU hypoxemic failure.Patients between December 2015 March 2016 who had clinically radiologically suspected were enrolled.Twenty two (11 male) met enrollment criteria. Median age APACHE II score was 45 (36-63) years 19 (13-25) respectively. Maximum...
Objective: To identify the clinical characteristics and outcomes of hospital-acquired SARS-CoV-2 infection during vaccination period nationwide in Turkey. Methods: COVID-19 patients followed pandemic services across Turkey between January 1, 2021, March 31, 2022 were investigated retrospectively. Nosocomial was defined as a patient neither diagnosed with nor suspected at hospital admission confirmed ≥5 days after admission. The primary outcome this study in-hospital mortality; demographic...
Objectives Long-term outcomes of COVID-19 patients who discharge ICU are unclear. We investigated the effect on lung structure, pulmonary functional, exercise capacity and quality life in from medical ward. Methods A prospective single-centre study conducted PCR confirmed has been discharged University Health Sciences, Dr. Suat Seren Chest Disease Thoracic Surgery Teaching Research Hospital between 15 January 5 March 2021. Patients followed up for more than 48 hours 72 ward were included...
The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between mortality awareness and spiritual care competence among nurses working in intensive palliative units. This cross-sectional, descriptive correlational included a sample 163 who had worked for at least one month units two hospitals.

In this study, we aimed to assess the effect of BioFire FilmArray Blood Culture Identification 2 panel on agent identification and antimicrobial stewardship in patients with a critical state sepsis secondary bloodstream infection.
The prognostic value of amino terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide levels in patients with acute exacerbation chronic obstructive pulmonary disease has not been fully established.To investigate the predictive terms mortality, need for noninvasive mechanical ventilation, invasive and weaning success.Cohort study.Patients who were admitted to intensive care unit between December 2015 2016 due included study. Demographic data, ventilation application, level, duration hospital stay, success,...

Pulmoner emboli farklı semptom ve bulgularla ortaya çıkabilen tanı konması zor bir hastalıktır.Bu hastalar asemptomatik olabildikleri gibi, şok, senkop veya kardiyak arrest ile acil servislere başvurabilirler.Özellikle fulminant pulmoner sıklıkla arreste neden olmakta kardiyopulmoner resüsitasyon (CPR) uygulanmasına rağmen yüksek mortalite sonuçlanmaktadır.Avrupa Resüsitasyon Konseyi Kılavuzu ( 2015)'e göre akut
To investigate the intra-rater reliability and construct validity of Turkish version De-Morton Mobility Index (DEMMI) in intensive care unit (ICU) survivors.Construct DEMMI was measured by correlating it with physical functioning scales. Known group comparison made according to Medical Research Council Sum Score (MRC-SS). Internal consistency determined measuring Cronbach α coefficient. Test-retest assessed performing same researcher after 24 h calculating intraclass correlation coefficient...
