Non-Invasive Pelvic Floor Rehabilitation in Cancer Population: An Incomplete Cohort.

Background: Pelvic floor dysfunction and its associated symptoms are a common clinical challenge in the cancer population. Despite the noninvasive nature of pelvic floor rehabilitation (PFR) for this condition and the promising clinical results observed with its use, PFR appears to be an underused therapy.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to quantify the association between physical therapy of the pelvic floor and its effect on pain relief and the associated symptoms in cancer patients with pelvic floor dysfunction.

Impact of the International Nosocomial Infection Control Consortium (INICC)'s multidimensional approach on rates of ventilator-associated pneumonia in intensive care units in 22 hospitals of 14 cities of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

Background: To analyze the impact of the International Nosocomial Infection Control Consortium (INICC) Multidimensional Approach (IMA) and use of INICC Surveillance Online System (ISOS) on ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) rates in Saudi Arabia from September 2013 to February 2017.

Methods: A multicenter, prospective, before-after surveillance study on 14,961 patients in 37 intensive care units (ICUs) of 22 hospitals. During baseline, we performed outcome surveillance of VAP applying the definitions of the CDC/NHSN.
