"Perioperative hypothermia," which is defined as a decrease below 36 °C in the body temperature 1 h prior to anesthesia and up to 24 h following anesthesia is a common problem in patients undergoing surgery. Perioperative hypothermia leads to many problems.
Given the negative effects of increased
90 consecutive patients scheduled for mitral valve replacement or aortic valve replacement under moderate hypothermic CPB gave written informed consent and were enrolled in this study.
In the operating room, patients received routine monitoring. Systemic arterial blood pressure was measured via
Hypothermia is defined as a body temperature below 36°C and classified as mild (34°C-36°C), moderate (32°C-33.9°C), severe (<32°C) hypothermia. Hypothermia can be caused by reduced heat production, increased heat loss and / or deterioration of thermoregulation (anesthesia and premedication drugs,
1.1 Current state of knowledge Food Protein- Induced Enterocolitis Syndrome (FPIES) is a food allergy with a prevalence of 0.34% and an incidence of 15.4 children per 100,000 per year. It is a non-IgE-mediated allergy, manifested by vomiting 1 to 4 hours after ingestion of the suspect food (major
As one of the more common hospital-based major interventional procedures, 180,476 CABG surgeries were performed in the United States in 2016, according to the Society of Thoracic Surgeons Adult Cardiac Surgery Database (STS ACSD). Of these, 23,545 operations also involved aortic or mitral valve
One hour before the surgery, patients are premedicated with lorazepam (per os, 2.5 mg). Induction of anaesthesia is achieved by iv midazolam (30 μg/kg), sufentanyl (0.4-0.5 μg/kg), and propofol (0.3-0.5 mg/kg), and iv propofol (50 mg/kg/min) is administered to maintain anaesthesia. Intravenous

Specific Objectives:
To evaluate the microbiome response to probiotic supplementation (with and without prebiotics) in under 6 months infants with severe acute malnutrition and to compare the microbiome response with healthy infants supplemented with probiotic.
Research Design and Methods:
Study
Persons with spinal cord injury (SCI), particularly cervical injuries (tetraplegia), are unable to effectively regulate core body temperature (Tcore) due to interruption of motor, sensory, and sympathetic pathways. Thus, control of distal extremity vasoconstriction (heat conservation) and shivering

Microdialysis assessment of cerebral energy state during cardiac arrest and cardiopulmonary resuscitation in humans
In comatose patients resuscitated from out of hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA), neurological injuries remain the leading cause of death. The in-hospital mortality is reported at 30-50%,
PROJECT DESCRIPTION Principal Investigator: Hajime Tokuno, MD
Project Title: "Efficacy of botulinum toxin injection in reducing limb pain in patients with Complex Regional Pain Syndrome"
Purpose: Complex Regional Pain Syndrome is a condition affecting anywhere from 1 to 5 million Americans including
Patients presenting to the emergency department with clinical signs and symptoms of acute ischemic stroke will undergo initial evaluation. The patient will be screened for study eligibility. A medical history and list of active medications will be documented. A physical will be conducted including
In comatose patients resuscitated from out of hospital cardiac arrest, neurological injuries remain the leading cause of death. The in-hospital mortality is reported at 30-50%, and the total mortality, although improved substantially over the last decade, remain to be significant, in most countries
Medical personnel (e.g,. nurses or physicians) responding to a cardiac arrest will assess each patient for study inclusion. During resuscitation patients will receive standard ALS (advanced life support) according to European Resuscitation Council (ERC) guidelines with cooling with the RhinoChill
