Background: Oral anticoagulation is the cornerstone treatment of several diseases. Its management is often challenging, and different telemedicine strategies have been implemented to support it.
Objective: The aim of the study is to systematically review the evidence on the impact of telemedicine-based oral anticoagulation management compared to usual care on thromboembolic and bleeding events.
Background: Medical emergencies during short- or long-haul commercial airline flights have become more commonplace due to the aviation industry's contemporary growth, the popularization of commercial flights, and an increased aging of air travelers with significant comorbidities. However, the precise incidence of onboard medical events on commercial airlines and the most common medical conditions is unclear.
Methods: In this systematic review and meta-analysis, we explored the incidence of in-flight medical emergencies among airline passengers and estimated the incidence rate by physiological body system, or organ class/syndrome for emergencies that may be associated with different body systems.
