Vr exposure in cbt is effective and efficacious treatment for simple phobia (flight phobia)

European Psychiatry, 2021
Introduction The virtual environment with realistically rendered fear-inducing stimuli is enough to conduct VR exposure therapy (VRE), although the total control over the virtual environment also enables presentation of stimuli, contexts, and tasks not

VRE in cirrhotic patients [PDF]

BMC Infectious Diseases, 2019
Vancomycin resistant enterococci (VRE) infections are of increasing concern in many hospitalized patients. Patients with cirrhosis are at added risk of infection with VRE, with associated increased risk for complications from infections. The goals of this study were to: [1] identify risk factors for VRE amongst cirrhotic patients before liver ...

Screening for Intestinal Colonization with Vancomycin Resistant Enterococci and Associated Risk Factors among Patients Admitted to an Adult Intensive Care Unit of a Large Teaching Hospital [PDF]

Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2016
Introduction: Gut colonization with Vancomycin Resistant Enterococci (VRE) increases the risk of acquiring infection during hospital stay. Patients admitted in the ICU’s are the major reservoirs for VRE colonization due to higher antibiotic pressure.

Molecular characterization of vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium isolates from two German hospitals

GMS Hygiene and Infection Control, 2021
Introduction: Vancomycin-resistant accounts for around 10–23% of nosocomial enterococcal infections and constitutes a relevant therapeutic problem due to its limited susceptibility to antibiotics.
