Tele-Rapid Response Team (Tele-RRT): The effect of implementing patient safety network system on outcomes of medical patients-A before and after cohort study.

Background: Rapid Response Teams were developed to provide interventions for deteriorating patients. Their activation depends on timely detection of deterioration. Automated calculation of warning scores may lead to early recognition, and improvement of RRT effectiveness.

Early Versus Late DNR Orders and its Predictors in a Saudi Arabian ICU: A Descriptive Study.

Background: Practices of Do-Not-Resuscitate (DNR) orders show discrepancies worldwide, but there are only few such studies from Saudi Arabia.

Objective: To describe the practice of DNR orders in a Saudi Arabian tertiary care ICU.

Methods: This retrospective study included all patients who died with a DNR order at the ICU of King Saud Medical City, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, between January 1 to December 31, 2021.

Delayed intensive care unit admission from the emergency department: impact on patient outcomes. A retrospective study.

Objective: To study the impact of delayed admission by more than 4 hours on the outcomes of critically ill patients.

Methods: This was a retrospective observational study in which adult patients admitted directly from the emergency department to the intensive care unit were divided into two groups: Timely Admission if they were admitted within 4 hours and Delayed Admission if admission was delayed for more than 4 hours. Intensive care unit length of stay and hospital/intensive care unit mortality were compared between the groups.

COVID-19 in a patient with a flare of systemic lupus erythematosus: A rare case-report.

This is a rare case-report of a young female with systemic lupus erythematosus and end-stage kidney disease (on maintenance hemodialysis) who was admitted to our intensive care unit due to life-threatening COVID-19. The patient was diagnosed with a flare of lupus; while being on maintenance hydroxychloroquine therapy. However, after the administration of steroids she made an uneventful recovery and was discharged home.

Modified Early Warning Score as a predictor of intensive care unit readmission within 48 hours: a retrospective observational study.

Objective: To evaluate the hypothesis that the Modified Early Warning Score (MEWS) at the time of intensive care unit discharge is associated with readmission and to identify the MEWS that most reliably predicts intensive care unit readmission within 48 hours of discharge.

Methods: This was a retrospective observational study of the MEWSs of discharged patients from the intensive care unit. We compared the demographics, severity scores, critical illness characteristics, and MEWSs of readmitted and non-readmitted patients, identified factors associated with readmission in a logistic regression model, constructed a Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve of the MEWS in predicting the probability of readmission, and presented the optimum criterion with the highest sensitivity and specificity.

COVID-19 in a patient with active tuberculosis: A rare case-report.

Scarce data exist about the clinical features of COVID-19 in patients with concomitant active and/or latent tuberculosis (TB). This rare case-report outlines the diagnosis, management and outcome of a sixty year old hypertensive and diabetic patient with serious COVID-19 pneumonia and underlying active TB. The patient was treated successfully in a COVID-19 designated intensive care unit in Saudi Arabia.
