Article Synopsis
- This study aimed to understand the prevalence of secondary bacterial and fungal infections in hospitalized COVID-19 patients in India, and how these infections influence patient outcomes and control measures.
- A comprehensive analysis of electronic health records from 10 hospitals revealed that 9.8% of the 19,852 COVID-19 patients developed secondary infections, which were significantly more common in older patients and those with severe disease.
- The most frequent infections were urinary (41.7%) and blood-related (30.8%), with Gram-negative bacilli being the predominant pathogens, leading to increased hospitalization duration for affected patients.
Background: Robot-assisted thoracoscopic thymectomy has brought new challenges to the anaesthesiologists. Here we present a study of 17 patients undergoing robotic thymectomy.
Patients And Methods: The present study was a prospective study, which included 17 patients with myasthenia gravis scheduled for robot-assisted thoracoscopic thymectomy.
Background: Opioids continue to remain the primary analgesics in children undergoing ophthalmic surgery, and their use may be associated with adverse effects like vomiting and respiratory depression. Topical anesthesia avoids these adverse effects and also complications of regional blocks. We designed this study to verify whether topical anesthesia with lignocaine gel is a feasible alternative to intravenous (IV) fentanyl for pediatric cataract surgery.
