How the work of respiratory physiotherapists changes the tracheostomy management and decannulation in a NICU department: an Italian experience
We described the number of decannulations, the length of stay in NICU and decannulation time; the diagnosis of decannulated patients and the number of deaths. 928 total patients were analysed: 468 in P1, 460 in P2. Total length of stay or number of deaths did not change significantly between the two periods, while the number of decannulated patients before the discharge was higher in P2 143 (64%), compared with P1 79 (36%) p<0.001. More patients with neurological pathologies involving possible swallowing disorders, such as cerebral haemorrhage, head trauma and stroke, have been successfully decannulated in P2 than in P1...

Elephant trunk simplifies thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm repair without impacting operative risk
ConclusionsExtent I and II TAAA repair after ET can be safely performed in a tertiary referral center with shorter bypass and cross-clamp times. ET eliminates the need for circulatory arrest or clamping a hostile arch.

Development and validation of a nomogram for decannulation in patients with neurological injury: A prognostic accuracy study
ConclusionWe developed a nomogram that can predict the probability of decannulation within 6 months in tracheostomized neurological injury patients. The nomogram, including age, NIHSS scores, early rehabilitation, shock, and secondary surgery, may assist clinicians in estimating patients' prognosis.

Improving Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation Survival in COVID-19. Effect of a Bundle of Care
Veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) support surged during the COVID-19 pandemic. Our program changed the model of care pursuing to protect the multidisciplinary team from the risk of infection and to serve as many patients as possible. Patient–healthcare interactions were restricted, and the ECMO bed capacity was increased by reducing the ECMO specialist–patient ratio to 1:4 with non-ECMO trained nurses support. The outcomes worsened and we paused while we evaluated and modified our model of care. The ECMO bed capacity was reduced to allow a nurse ECMO–specialist nurse ratio 2:1 with an ECMO traine...

Timing of Tracheostomy in Patients with Intracerebral Haemorrhage: A Propensity-Matched Analysis
CONCLUSION: We recommend ET for high-risk patients with ICH. Although ET cannot reduce in-hospital mortality or improve patient prognosis, it may help reduce hospital costs and ICU LOS as well as the use of antibiotics, sedatives and muscle relaxants.PMID:36125838 | DOI:10.2174/1567202619666220920122935
