Teamwork and patient safety in dynamic domains of healthcare: a review of the literature
Tập 53 Số 2 - Trang 143-151 - 2009
Aims/Background: This review examines current research on teamwork in highly
dynamic domains of healthcare such as operating rooms, intensive care, emergency
medicine, or trauma and resuscitation teams with a focus on aspects relevant to
the quality and safety of patient care.Results: Evidence from three main areas
of research supports the relationship between teamwork and patient safety: (1)

The assessment of postoperative cognitive function
Tập 45 Số 3 - Trang 275-289 - 2001
Postoperative cognitive function (POCD) has been subject to extensive research.
In the literature, large differences are apparent in methodology such as the
test batteries, the interval between sessions, the endpoints to be analysed,
statistical methods, and how neuropsychological deficits are defined.
Traditionally, intelligence tests or tests developed for clinical
neuropsychology have been used...
Cognitive dysfunction after minor surgery in the elderly
Tập 47 Số 10 - Trang 1204-1210 - 2003
Background: Major surgery is frequently associated with postoperative cognitive
dysfunction (POCD) in elderly patients. Type of surgery and hospitalization may
be important prognostic factors. The aims of the study were to find the
incidence and risk factors for POCD in elderly patients undergoing minor
surgery.Methods: We enrolled 372 patients aged greater than 60 years scheduled
for minor surg...
Haemodynamic effects of pneumoperitoneum and the influence of posture during anaesthesia for laparoscopic surgery
Tập 38 Số 3 - Trang 276-283 - 1994
The laparoscopic operating technique is being applied increasingly to a variety
of intra‐abdominal operations. Intra–abdominal gas insufflation, i.e.
pneumoperitoneum (PP), is then used to allow surgical access. The haemodynamic
effects of PP in combination with different body positions have not been fully
examined. Eleven patients without signs of cardiopulmonary disease were studied
before and d...
Continuous adductor-canal-blockade for adjuvant post-operative analgesia after major knee surgery: preliminary results
Tập 55 Số 1 - Trang 14-19 - 2011
Effects of gabapentin on postoperative morphine consumption and pain after abdominal hysterectomy: A randomized, double‐blind trial
Tập 48 Số 3 - Trang 322-327 - 2004
Background: Preliminary clinical studies have suggested that gabapentin may
produce analgesia and reduce the need for opioids in postoperative patients. The
aim of the present study was to investigate the opioid‐sparing and analgesic
effects of gabapentin administered during the first 24 h after abdominal
hysterectomy.Methods: In a randomized, double‐blind study, 80 patients received
oral gabape...
Postdural puncture headache (PDPH): Onset, duration, severity, and associated symptoms: An analysis of 75 consecutive patients with PDPH
Tập 39 Số 5 - Trang 605-612 - 1995
Among 873 consecutive patients who had undergone a total of 1021 spinal
anaesthesias involving puncture of the lumbar dura, 75 (7.35%) complained of
Postdural Puncture headache. (PDPH). The severity of each patient's PDPH was
categorized, on a scale from mild to severe, on the basis of the onset,
duration, severity of the heActa ches, and the degree to which they were
accompained by auditory and v...
Differential Effects of Epidural Morphine in the Treatment of Cancer‐related Pain
Tập 29 Số 1 - Trang 32-36 - 1985
Fifty‐five patients with pain associated with cancer were selected for long‐term
treatment with epidural morphine. Patients who had more than one type of pain
within the same region were specially analysed concerning differential analgesic
effects of the treatment, i. e. the patients served as their own control.
Twenty‐eight of the 55 patients became pain free. In 21 patients alleviation of
pain w...
Assessment of postoperative nausea using a visual analogue scale
Tập 44 Số 4 - Trang 470-474 - 2000
Background: Assessment of postoperative nausea intensity is difficult because
nausea is a subjective and unpleasant sensation. We propose using the Visual
Analogue Scale (VAS) device to increase the efficiency and precision in the
assessment of nausea. We carried out a pilot study on postoperative patients
suffering from nausea to measure the degree of agreement between the VAS scores
and those gi...
Effects of lung recruitment maneuver and positiveend‐expiratory pressure on lung volume, respiratory mechanics and alveolar gas mixing in patients ventilated after cardiac surgery
Tập 46 Số 6 - Trang 717-725 - 2002
Background: It is unclear whether positive end‐expiratory pressure (PEEP) is
needed to maintain the improved oxygenation and lung volume achieved after a
lung recruitment maneuver in patients ventilated after cardiac surgery performed
in the cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB).Methods: A prospective, randomized,
controlled study in a university hospital intensive care unit. Sixteen patients
who had under...
