Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is defined as illness caused by a novel coronavirus now called severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2; formerly called 2019-nCoV), which was first identified amid an outbreak of respiratory illness cases in Wuhan City, Hubei Province, China.
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), caused by infection with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), emerged in China in December 2019 and quickly spread all over the globe. The clinical features are fever, dyspnoea, dry cough, fatigue and diarrhoea (1). Pharyngodynia, nasal
Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is the main cause of gynecological cancer death in developed countries, reflecting a clinical diagnosis possible at an advanced-stage of the disease and an early propensity for peritoneal dissemination. The treatment of these advanced stages combines optimal
Introduction:
Pneumothorax and hydro-pneumothorax are the common thoracic injuries which have a severe risk of morbidity. In such a condition either gas or air remains in pleural cavity, a space between visceral and parietal pleura of lung1or air and fluid both are present where air fluid level can
Intrapleural Fibrinolysis and DNase versus VATS for the treatment of pleural empyema: a randomized, controlled trial
BACKGROUND
Pleural empyema is a disease with an infection inside the chest cavity, often as a result of a pneumonia. In Denmark there are approximately 500 new cases per year.
STRUCTURED SUMMARY Title of study: Comparison of the Effectiveness of Povidone-Iodine alone to Povidone-Iodine--Tetracycline Combination for Chemical Pleurodesis in Malignant Pleural Effusion.
Research design: Prospective Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial. Background: Malignant pleural effusion
Empyema, a collection of pus in the pleural space has been continuously associated with morbidity and mortality rates of 10-20%. Increase in the incidence of empyema with change in pattern of disease and the causative organism has demonstrated a challenge in the diagnosis and treatment. In the
The incidence of community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) in young children remains high (20- 30/1000 child-years) even in high-income settings with routine pneumococcal vaccination, and is associated with a high rate of hospitalisation (around 10/1000 child-years). In low-and middle-income settings,
Background:
Despite recent advances in supportive care for patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), mortality remains >40%. Fever worsens and hypothermia mitigates animal models of ALI and in small non-randomized in patients with ARDS. Since hypothermia reduces oxygen utilization as
Severe pneumonia is a serious infection in children which requires timely intervention. Management of severe pneumonia is done by appropriate antibiotics and supportive care. WHO recommendation is to use injection ampicillin four times a day for 3-5 days and injection gentamicin once a day for 3-5
Pleural infection (empyema or complex parapneumonic effusion [CPPE]) represents one of the common clinical diagnoses encountered in clinical practice in the United States (US) and worldwide. The incidence of pleural infection continues to rise with an annual incidence of approximately 65,000 in the
Chest-X-Rays (CXR), Computerized Tomography (CT) or Thoracic Ultrasound (TUS) provide images deemed consistent with acute lung consolidation and suitable to confirm the diagnosis of community acquired pneumonia (CAP). Patients which may be affected by CAP are many , but diagnosis is not
After general anesthesia, almost 90% patients have lung atelectasis. The lung atelectasis persisted even after the surgery, and caused post operative complication, for example: fever, pleural effusion, hypoxemia, pneumonia, and respiratory failure. So, how to improve lung function after the surgery
The present study describes a six months period of specialist activity of an Emergency Department physician. The aim is to display the performance in the subsets of difficult or unexpected thoracic ultrasound imaging performed by TUS, in a context with the prompt availability of all radiological
This study is an open label randomized control trial with concealment procedure which is to compare the effect of albumin 5% and ringer lactate towards plasma leakage incidence in adult DHF patient. This clinical trial cannot be done in double blind because it is technically impossible.
