Intelligent Generating Controller a Desflurane Concentration Value Which Helps to Decrease Blood Pressure.

Introduction: The aim of the article is to determine the appropriate concentration of desflurane to effectively counteract the increase in blood pressure resulting from surgical stress. In medical practice, this increase is often limited by using additional doses of opioid drugs. Additional medications or higher doses of those already used may adversely affect your health.

Comparison of Three Video Laryngoscopes and Direct Laryngoscopy for Emergency Endotracheal Intubation While Wearing PPE-AGP: A Randomized, Crossover, Simulation Trial.

Background: The COVID-19 pandemic has necessitated changes in the safety protocols of endotracheal intubation at every level of care. This study aimed to compare the first-pass success rates (FPS) and intubation times (IT) of three video laryngoscopes (VL) and direct laryngoscopy (DL) for simulated COVID-19 patient emergency intubation (EI).

Methods: The study was a prospective, randomized, crossover trial.

Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on Patients Affected by Non-Communicable Diseases in Europe and in the USA.

An international online patient community, Carenity, conducted a patient study in two independent waves among adults affected by non-communicable diseases (NCDs) in Europe and in the United States of America (USA). The study aimed to assess the real time impact of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) on the medical conditions of patients with NCDs, their access to health care, and their adaptation to daily life as well as to describe their sources of information on COVID-19 and their needs for specific information and support. During the pandemic, 50% of the patients reported a worsening of their medical condition, and 17% developed a new disease.

Usage of soft bougie for intubation via supraglottic airway devices.

Unlabelled: An effective and dexterously established airway management of patients in life-threatening conditions is one of the basic procedures. Endotracheal intubation is considered to be the best method, however when, difficulties occur, it is indispensable to use of alternative methods with expertise.

Aim: The aim of the research is to compare the effectiveness of endotracheal intubation management while using 5 different supragrottic airway devices with and without a flexible tracheal tube introducer.

Association of primary hyperparathyroidism and humoral hypercalcemia of malignancy in a patient with clear cell renal carcinoma.

Hypercalcemia is found frequently in patients with cancer. Besides the etiology related to the malignancy, other causes should be considered in the differential diagnostic, as primary hyperparathyroidism, granulomatous diseases and the use of thiazide diuretics. We present a case report of a severe hypercalcemia due to a rare association and review the relevant literature.
