Risk Assessment and Recommended Approaches to Optimize Infection Control and Antibiotic Stewardship to Reduce External Ventricular Drain Infection: A Single-Center Study.

An external ventricular drain (EVD) is used to release elevated intracranial pressure by draining cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) from the brain's ventricles. The establishment of an EVD is one of the most commonly performed neurosurgical procedures to treat intracranial pressure in patients. Nevertheless, infections are very frequent complications.

Complex Infection-Control Measures with Disinfectant Switch Help the Successful Early Control of Carbapenem-Resistant Outbreak in Intensive Care Unit.

A carbapenem-resistant (CRAB) outbreak in an intensive care unit (ICU) was contained by an improved infection-control measure that included a disinfectant policy. In our retrospective cohort study, we describe the epidemiological investigations and infection-control measures during this outbreak. Descriptive analysis was used to summarize patient demographics, neurological diseases, surgical treatment, underlying diseases, infection, and outcomes.

An Eye Movement Study in Unconventional Usage of Different Software Tools.

One of the main challenges of Human-Computer Interaction is the creation of UIs that enable the use of different systems in an easy and understandable method. The study analyses the student audience who uses software tools differently from the basis. In the research, two languages supporting UI implementation related to .

[Endoscopic removal of a dental implant displaced into the maxillary sinus: A case presentation and a review of the literature].

Összefoglaló. Az utóbbi időben egyre gyakoribbá vált fogászati implantáció egyik nem kívánt szövődménye az arcüregbe került implantátum, amely a maxilla molaris, esetenként praemolaris régiójának implantációjakor fordulhat elő. Ennek oka lehet a kúpsugaras komputertomográfia nélküli, azaz nem megfelelő tervezés, fennálló arcüreggyulladás és -ventilációs probléma, kevés, puha csont, a fúrási vagy implantátumbehelyezési sebészi gyakorlat hiánya, észre nem vett membránperforáció arcüreg-csontfeltöltés esetén.

Measuring Cognition Load Using Eye-Tracking Parameters Based on Algorithm Description Tools.

Writing a computer program is a complex cognitive task, especially for a new person in the field. In this research an eye-tracking system was developed and applied, which allows the observation of eye movement parameters during programming as a complex, cognitive process, and the conclusions can be drawn from the results. The aim of the paper is to examine whether the flowchart or Nassi-Shneiderman diagram is a more efficient algorithm descripting tool for describing cognitive load by recording and evaluating eye movement parameters.

[Orbital compartment syndrome. The most frequent cause of blindness following facial trauma].

Introduction: Although orbital compartment syndrome is a rare condition, it is still the most common cause of blindness following simple or complicated facial fractures. Its pathomechanism is similar to the compartment syndrome in the limb. Little extra fluid (blood, oedema, brain, foreign body) in a non-space yielding space results with increasingly higher pressures within a short period of time.
