Background: Prematurity remains one of the main causes of neonatal morbidity and mortality. Approximately two thirds of preterm births are spontaneous, i.e.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFIntroduction: The arbitrary geriatric age cutoff of 65 may not accurately define older adults at higher risk of mortality following massive transfusion (MT). We sought to redefine a new geriatric age threshold for MT and understand its association with outcomes.
Material And Methods: The 2013-2018 Trauma Quality Improvement Program database was queried for all adults who received ≥10 units of packed red blood cells (pRBCs) within 24 h of admission.
Background: Data on massive transfusion (MT) in geriatric trauma patients is lacking. This study aims to determine geriatric transfusion futility thresholds (TT) and TT variations based on frailty.
Methods: Patients from 2013 to 2018 TQIP database receiving MT were stratified by age and frailty.
Article Synopsis
- The study investigates gestational weight gain and its effects on postpartum outcomes in women who have undergone bariatric surgery.
- The research indicates that a significant portion of these women either gain too little or too much weight during pregnancy, with insufficient weight gain linked to a higher incidence of small-for-gestational-age infants.
- Conversely, excessive weight gain is associated with increased postpartum weight retention, indicating potential challenges for weight management after childbirth.
