Role of Pediatric Otolaryngologist in Pediatric Tracheostomy Code Blue Cases: A New Safety Initiative

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective A “Code Blue” is a term to activate an alarm for the resuscitation team for a patient who has a cardiopulmonary arrest. The role of a pediatric otolaryngologist in a tracheostomy‐related code blue case is not clearly defined. We aim to describe the role of pediatric otolaryngologists in pediatric tracheostomy code blue (PTCB) cases ...

Documented End‐of‐Life Preferences of People With Parkinson's Disease or Parkinsonism Across Europe

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Parkinson's disease and atypical parkinsonism are characterized by motor and non‐motor symptoms. As the disease advances, planning for end‐of‐life (EoL) care becomes increasingly important. However, consensus‐based European guidelines for advance care planning and documentation of EoL care preferences for parkinsonism are lacking ...

Comparison of chest compression quality in walking versus straddling cardiopulmonary resuscitation during stretcher transportation: A prospective randomised crossover study using manikins.

PLoS ONE, 2019
The optimal strategy to ensure chest compression quality for patients being transported on a stretcher has not been established yet. We hypothesised that straddling cardiopulmonary resuscitation may improve chest compression quality in patients being ...

Outpatient preoperative parenteral nutrition in malnourished surgical patients: A feasibility study (the OPPORTUNITY study)

Nutrition in Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Preoperative parenteral nutrition (PN) improves outcomes in malnourished surgical patients. Traditionally, this requires hospital admission, increasing length of stay and costs—challenges worsened by limited hospital bed availability. Outpatient PN may offer a feasible alternative.

Correlation Analyses Between Serum Interleukin-7, Interleukin-15 and Lactate Provide Insights Into Their Potential Roles in the Regulation of Inflammation in Elderly Septic Patients

Biomarker Insights
Background: Our previous research have identified Interleukin (IL)-7 and IL-15 as prognostic biomarkers for elderly septic patients, however, little is known about the link between the serum levels of IL-7, IL-15, and lactate as well as their potential ...
