Journal ArticleDOI

Effectiveness of neuraminidase inhibitors in reducing mortality in patients admitted to hospital with influenza A H1N1pdm09 virus infection: a meta-analysis of individual participant data.

Stella G. Muthuri, +87 more
TL;DR: There was an increase in the mortality hazard rate with each day's delay in initiation of treatment up to day 5 as compared with treatment initiated within 2 days of symptom onset, and early treatment versus no treatment was also associated with a reduction in mortality risk.
Journal ArticleDOI

Outcome and prognostic factors in critically ill cancer patients admitted to the intensive care unit.

TL;DR: A combination of factors must be taken into account to estimate a critically ill cancer patient's prognosis in the ICU, and the APACHE III scoring system alone should not be used to make decisions about therapy prolongation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparison of conventional surgical versus Seldinger technique emergency cricothyrotomy performed by inexperienced clinicians.

TL;DR: The two methods of cricothyrotomy in cadavers showed equally poor performance, with subjective assessment of technique and cadaver finding no statistically significant difference between both groups.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Assessment of Four Different Methods to Verify Tracheal Tube Placement in the Critical Care Setting

TL;DR: Capnography was the most reliable method for rapid evaluation of tube position, followed by EDM, whereas auscultation and Trachlight did not seem to be of comparable value.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cytokine Profile and Correlation to the APACHE III and MPM II Scores in Patients with Sepsis

TL;DR: A significant decrease of the APACHE III scores, IL-6, and CRP levels was observed over the study period in the survivor group only, while neither the dynamics of TNF-alpha nor IL-12 plasma levels contributed to the risk estimation of mortality.
