Predictors of Falls and Fractures Leading to Hospitalization in People With Dementia: A Representative Cohort Study.

2018

OBJECTIVES: Investigate predictors of falls and fractures leading to hospitalization in a large cohort of people with dementia. DESIGN: A retrospective cohort study. SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS: People with diagnosed dementia between January 2007 and March 2013, aged >65 years, were assembled using data from the Maudsley Biomedical Research Centre Case Register, from 4 boroughs in London serving a population of 1.3 million people. MEASURES: Falls and/or fractures leading to hospitalization were ascertained from linked national records. Demographic data, cognitive test scores, medications, and symptom and functioning scores from Health of the Nation Outcome Scales (HoNOS65+) were modeled in mul…

182 Does emergency physician prehospital management improve outcome of severe blunt trauma?

2010

Severe blunt traumas are a leading cause of premature death and handicap. The benefit for the patient of pre-hospital management by emergency physicians remains under debate because of possible delayed hospital admission. This study aimed at comparing the impact of basic life support (BLS) performed by fire brigades with advanced life support (ALS) performed by SMUR (Service Mobile d9Urgences et de Reanimation) physicians, on 30-day mortality. The FIRST study (French Intensive Care Recorded Severe Trauma) is a French observational multicentric study designed in order to describe the modalities of severe blunt trauma management. The study population was composed of trauma patients over 18 ye…

Les admissions pour iatrogénie sévère en unité de soins intensifs de cardiologie : étude prospective sur 7244 patients

2013

Resume Introduction Les complications iatrogeniques sont definies comme des reactions nocives induites par l’utilisation d’un medicament, mais aussi comme complications suite aux techniques invasives ou a l’implantation de materiel. Les complications iatrogenes survenant durant un sejour hospitalier sont bien connues et associees a une augmentation de la duree du sejour hospitalier et de la mortalite. En revanche, il existe peu de donnees concernant la iatrogenie comme motif d’admission a l’hopital ; particulierement en soins intensifs cardiologiques. Les objectifs de cette etude sont : (a) d’analyser la prevalence de la iatrogenie et ses caracterisques ; (b) de connaitre le retentissement …

Organization of intensive cardiac care units in Europe: Results of a multinational survey

2020

Background: The present survey aims to describe the intensive cardiac care unit organization and admission policies in Europe. Methods: A total of 228 hospitals (61% academic) from 27 countries participated in this survey. In addition to the organizational aspects of the intensive cardiac care units, including classification of the intensive cardiac care unit levels, data on the admission diagnoses were gathered from consecutive patients who were admitted during a two-day period. Admission policies were evaluated by comparing illness severity with the intensive cardiac care unit level. Gross national income was used to differentiate high-income countries (n=13) from middle-income countries…

MR 2918162 Reviewed Van der Geer G. and Kouvidakis A. The Hodge bundle on Hurwitz spaces. Pure and Applied Mathematics Quarterly (2011) 7, no. 4, 129…

2012

In this paper the authors consider the Hurwitz space $H_{g, \, d}$ that parametrizes degree $d$ simple coverings of $\mathbb{P}^{1}$ with $b = 2 g - 2 + 2d$ branch points. The compactification $\bar{H}_{g, \, d}$ of this Hurwitz space is the space of admissible covers of genus $g$ and degree $d$, $f: C \rightarrow P$, where $C$ is a nodal curve and $P$ is a stable $b$-pointed curve of genus $0$. Assigning to $f: C \rightarrow P$ the stabilized model of $C$, one defines a natural map $\phi: \bar{H}_{g, \, d} \rightarrow \bar{M}_{g}$ where $\bar{M}_{g}$ denotes the moduli space of stable curves of genus $g$. The Hurwitz space $\bar{H}_{g, \, d}$ carries a natural $\mathbb{Q}$-divisor class, t…

Antimicrobial Lubricant Did Not Reduce Infection Rate in Transrectal Biopsy Patients in a Large Randomized Trial Due to Low Complication Rates

2018

Abstract Background Transrectal prostate biopsy (pbx) is the most frequent outpatient procedure in the urological field. Septic complications are a major health issue. Objective To evaluate complication rates with or without an antimicrobial lubricant. Design, setting, and participants A total of 1000 patients received pbx between 2013 and 2015. Information about complications was collected by a 3-wk questionnaire. Return rate was 73.2% (n = 732). Intervention Randomization for pbx with the instillation of an antimicrobial lubricant (intervention group, n = 385) or the standard lubricant (control group, n = 347) was performed. Outcome measurements and statistical analysis Multivariable anal…

Diagnosis and therapeutic management of primary headache in an emergency setting

2013

Introduction and aim: Much headachers are under or mis-diagnoses and data regarding the proportion of patients attending an emergency department (ED) because of headache are still few. We conducted a retrospective observational study in an ED with the following aims: (a) estimate the proportion of headache attending to an ED (b) to estimate and describe the therapeutic management of primary headache and (c) to assessment the exam most frequently requested. Materials and methods: We collected data regarding patients diagnosed with headache consecutively attending the ED of the University of Palermo between September 2011 and March 2012. The study was approved by the ethics committee. Results: Between the semester evaluated 25110 subjects were admitted to ED headache suffers were equal to 1.6 %. Of these 263 (63.1 %) were woman and 154 (36.9 %). Mean age was 44.2 (DS ± 18.4) years (p = 0.068).According to ED registry headache admission was as follow assigned: 76.5 % with a diagnosis of headache 22.8 % with a secondary headache 0.7 % with Trigeminal Autonomic Cephalgias (TACs). Among those with a primary headache about 36 % of patient did not received a pharmacological treatment. Monotherapy was prescribed less frequently than combination therapy (19.1 vs 44.5 %).In monotherapy the most frequent medication were NSAIDs (28.3 %) benzodiazepines (26.7 %) and dopamine antagonists (11.7 %). Among those with a primary headache a CT scan was performed in the 124 subjects and 111 (34.8 %) had a neurologist consultation. Discussion: Our data are in line with the one previously reported in literature. The most frequently medication in the Italian ED were NSAIDs benzodiazepines dopamine antagonists and steroids. Neverless our data unlikely can be compared to other study give a snapshot. We believe that much more can be done to improve treatment of primary headache in ED.Settore MED/26 - Neurologia
