Managing Selected Chronic Conditions in Hospitalized Patients
Am Fam Physician. 2024 Feb;109(2):134-142.ABSTRACTThe management of chronic illnesses should continue during hospitalization. Some chronic conditions require immediate intervention, whereas intensification of therapy for other conditions may be delayed until after discharge. Factors such as pain, anxiety, poor sleep hygiene, and concurrent illness can result in a transient elevation of blood pressure. Acute lowering of blood pressure in hospitalized patients who do not have target-organ damage is not recommended and may lead to harm. If treatment is needed, intravenous antihypertensive agents should be avoided. Patients wi...

Correlation between serum galanin and neuron-specific enolase levels with EEG abnormalities in pediatric convulsive status epilepticus and the efficacy of triple drug therapy
CONCLUSIONS: The study concludes that serum GAL and NSE levels in children with convulsive status epilepticus are positively correlated with the degree of EEG abnormalities. The combination therapy involving midazolam, diazepam, and phenobarbital is effective in treating children with convulsive status epilepticus, significantly improving clinical symptoms, reducing brain damage, and ensuring safety.PMID:38375724 | DOI:10.26355/eurrev_202402_35358 (Source: Pharmacological Reviews)
