ABSTRACT Background and Aims Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is frequently complicated by acute hypercapnic respiratory failure (AHRF) requiring non‐invasive ventilation (NIV). Early identification of NIV failure is important, as delayed recognition may worsen outcomes. This study evaluated the predictive utility of the 1‐h HACOR score for

ABSTRACT Background and Aims Prolonged antibiotic therapy in ventilator‐associated pneumonia (VAP) contributes to antimicrobial resistance. Inhaled heparin has pleiotropic anti‐inflammatory and mucolytic properties. This trial evaluated whether adjunctive nebulized heparin reduces antibiotic duration in VAP using a procalcitonin (PCT)‐guided ...

Identifying High‐Risk Children Safe for Same‐Day Discharge After Tonsillectomy
ABSTRACT Objective Current guidelines recommend overnight admission for children with severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and obesity undergoing tonsillectomy, although most have uneventful postoperative courses. We aimed to identify low‐risk subgroups within this high‐risk population who may be candidates for same‐day discharge. Methods Retrospective
