Evaluation of use and identification of predictive factors for nonuse of peripheral venous catheters in the emergency department
AbstractThe placement of peripheral venous catheters (PVC) is a frequent procedure in the emergency department (ED), which exposes patients to complications (hematoma, fluid leakage, phlebitis, edema, infection), increases hemolysis of blood samples, is time-consuming and costly. The main aim of this study is to analyze the rate of PVC nonuse in the ED and to identify predictive factors of their nonuse. This prospective single-center observational study was conducted in the ED of the Saint-Antoine Hospital in Paris, France between February and March 2022. Adult patients receiving a PVC were included. In addition to demogra...

Sensors, Vol. 24, Pages 2574: A Sensor-Based Upper Limb Treatment in Hemiplegic Patients: Results from a Randomized Pilot Study
This study aims to evaluate the feasibility of using the Gloreha Aria (R-Lead), a sensor-based upper limb in-hospital rehabilitation, compared with conventional physiotherapist-led training in subacute hemiplegic patients. Twenty-one patients were recruited and randomised 1:1 to a sensor-based group (treatment group TG) or a conventional group (control group, CG). All patients performed 30 sessions of 30 min each of dedicated upper limb rehabilitation. The Fugl–Meyer Assessment for Upper Extremity (FMA-UE) was the primary evaluation., both as a motor score and as individual items. Secondary evaluations were F...

Trends In Percutaneous Device Use For The Treatment Of Venous Thromboembolism Over Time In The PINC AI Healthcare Database And The National Inpatient Sample
The number of different methodologies of reperfusion therapy to treat venous thromboembolism (VTE) has increased substantially. Nevertheless, investigation of data representativeness and device-level usage in administrative databases has been limited. Using the National Inpatient Sample (NIS) and the PINC AI Healthcare Database (PHD), all hospital encounters with a diagnosis code of VTE were identified between 1/1/2016 and 12/31/2020. Patient demographics and trends in treatment modalities were evaluated over time. (Source: The American Journal of Cardiology)
