Safety of Early Mobilization in Adult Neurocritical Patients: An Exploratory Review.

Early mobilization has shown significant benefits in the rehabilitation of critically ill patients, including improved muscle strength, prevention of physical deconditioning, and reduced hospital length of stay. However, its safety in neurocritical patients, such as those with strokes, traumatic brain injuries, and postsurgical brain surgeries, remains uncertain. This study aims to map and examine the available evidence on the safety of early mobilization in adult neurocritical patients.

Efficacy of Telerehabilitation Protocols for Improving Functionality in Post-COVID-19 Patients.

Background And Aims: Telerehabilitation is essential for the recovery of post-COVID-19 patients, improving exercise tolerance, dyspnea, functional capacity, and daily activity performance. This study aimed to describe telerehabilitation protocols specifically designed for individuals with post-COVID-19 sequelae.

Materials And Methods: A systematic review was conducted with registration number CRD42023423678, based on searches developed in the following databases: ScienceDirect, Scopus, Dimensions.

Effectiveness of Manual Bronchial Clearance Techniques in the Treatment of Bronchiolitis.

Background: Bronchiolitis is a seasonal viral infection of the respiratory tract that causes numerous childhood hospitalizations annually. Treatments vary based on severity, with mild cases requiring fluids and moderate to severe cases involving hospitalization with oxygen therapy, bronchodilators, and chest physiotherapy. Manual bronchial clearance techniques differ between Anglo-Saxon and European schools, and their effectiveness remains a subject of debate.

Metabolic acidosis due to d-lactate in a patient with intestinal resection: Diagnostic challenges and nutritional strategies.

Introduction: Metabolic acidosis, marked by decreased plasma bicarbonate and arterial pH, is a common complication following extensive abdominal surgeries. D-lactate acidosis presents additional diagnostic challenges due to nonspecific symptoms.

Presentation Of Case: A 65-year-old woman with hypertension and morbid obesity was admitted to the ICU for intestinal obstruction and peritonitis due to an incarcerated hernia.
