The use of respiratory rate-oxygenation index to predict failure of high-flow nasal cannula in patients with coronavirus disease 2019-associated acute respiratory distress syndrome: A retrospective study
Description
Patients with mild-to-moderate coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)-associated acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) can be treated with a high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC). The use of the respiratory rate-oxygenation (ROX) index, calculated as the
An exploration of the relationship between wastewater viral signals and COVID-19 hospitalizations in Ottawa, Canada
Description
Monitoring of viral signal in wastewater is considered a useful tool for monitoring the burden of COVID-19, especially during times of limited availability in testing. Studies have shown that COVID-19 hospitalizations are highly correlated with
Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation to Support COVID-19 Patients: A Propensity-Matched Cohort Study
Description
CONCLUSION: ECMO therapy may be associated with an up to a three-fold increase in ICU mortality and 3-month mortality compared to MVA despite the facilitation of lung-protective ventilation settings in mechanically ventilated COVID-19 patients. We
Experiences of environmental services workers in a tertiary hospital in Asia during the COVID-19 pandemic: a qualitative study
Description
CONCLUSION: Besides uncovering the concerns shared by these workers, we identified helpful coping strategies, resilience factors and certain occupational adaptations, which have implications for future pandemic planning and readiness.
A Case of Abdominal Perforation in a COVID+ Patient Treated With Tocilizumab and Corticosteroids
Description
Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) was first identified in Wuhan province in China in late 2019. Around 15% of patients that develop severe acute respiratory syndrome from COVID-19 also develop severe COVID-19 pneumonia. Since the pandemic's start
Archetypal sustained low-efficiency daily diafiltration (SLEDD-f) for critically ill patients requiring kidney replacement therapy: towards an adequate therapy
Description
Sustained low-efficiency dialysis is a hybrid form of kidney replacement therapy that has gained increasing popularity as an alternative to continuous forms of kidney replacement therapy in intensive care unit settings. During the COVID-19 pandemic
Are Measles-Mumps-Rubella (MMR) Antibodies Friends or Foes for Covid-19 Disease?
Description
Many factors have been implicated in the pathogenesis and severity of COVID-19 pandemic. A wide variation in the susceptibility for SARS-CoV-2 infection among different population, gender and age has been observed. Multiple studies investigated the
Towards a Precise NMR Quantification of Acute Phase Inflammation Proteins from Human Serum
Description
Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectra of human serum and plasma show, besides metabolites and lipoproteins, two characteristic signals termed GlycA and B arising from the acetyl groups of glycoprotein glycans from acute phase proteins, which
Changes in Kawasaki disease incidence and phenotype during the COVID-19 pandemic
Description
CONCLUSION: Changes in KD incidence and phenotype were seen during the COVID-19 pandemic. Patients diagnosed with KD during the pandemic had complete KD, higher liver transaminases and significant IVIG resistance but no coronary artery involvement.
