AbstractBackgroundThe Gambia is going through a rapid epidemiologic transition with a dual disease burden of infections and non-communicable diseases occurring at the same time. Acute, time-sensitive, medical emergencies such as trauma, obstetric emergencies, respiratory failure, and stroke are leading causes of morbidity and mortality among adults in the country.ProblemData on medical emergency care and outcomes are lacking in The Gambia. Data on self-reported medical emergencies among adults in a selection of Gambian communities are presented in this report.MethodsA total of 320 individuals

The increase in the number of patients with complications of cardiovascular diseases and the need for early diagnosis of such complications and the early initiation of treatment already at the prehospital stage leads to an increasing need for more frequent use of helicopter medical equipment, as well as for equipping aviation medical teams with highly qualified specialists.

Abstract:
Accurate mortality prediction in intensive care units (ICUs) allows for the risk adjustment of study populations, aids in patient care and provides a method for benchmarking overall hospital and ICU performance. ICU risk-adjustment models are primarily comprised of an integer severity of illness score which increases with increasing patient risk of mortality. First published in the 1980s, the improvements to these scores primarily consisted of increasing the dimensionality of the model, and hence also increasing their complexity.

Abstract:
AbstractThe wide range of medical disciplines afferent to anesthesiology (anesthesia, perioperative care, intensive care medicine, pain therapy, and emergency medicine), carry a great, cross-specialty opportunity to influence safety and quality of patients’ care. Operating rooms and Intensive Care Units are settings burdened with a high risk of error: surgery is evolving, while the medical staff working in ICU is expected to provide high-quality care in a stressful and complex setting. It is estimated that about 1.5% of surgical interventions are complicated by critical events, but the true incidence is likely underestimated. Across medical specialties, preventable patient harm is more prevalent in the ICU.Recommendations and good practices for the safe provision of anesthesia and critical care exist and must be known and transferred into daily practice, since one of the main duties of anesthesia and critical care providers is to provide patient safety. Strategies to reduce the occurrence of medication errors, appropriate monitoring practices, equipment care and knowledge, planification and mastery of non-technical skills during emergencies, as well as designing and sustaining a healthy work environment and adopting adequate staffing policies could have an impact on patient safety and positively influence patient outcomes in this setting. The development of simulation training and cognitive aids (e.g., checklists, emergency manuals) is also changing the approach to crises and is expected to encourage a deeper cultural change.

Abstract:
In children, injury is the most common cause of death. Thoracic and abdominal trauma are both associated with high morbidity and mortality, and they warrant a thorough evaluation. Abdominal trauma occurs in 25% of children with major trauma and is responsible for 9% of all trauma deaths. Because it can delay care, lack of recognition of intra-abdominal injury increases morbidity and mortality. Thoracic trauma comprises only 4–6% of pediatric trauma but is related to 14% of pediatric trauma-related deaths and is the second most common cause of mortality in pediatric trauma. This chapter discusses the keys to the evaluation of the pediatric trauma patient with thoraco-abdominal injury, including the evidence-based approach and algorithms to be utilized by medical personnel.

Antimicrobial resistance remains a substantial global health concern, invigorating the critical need for alternate therapeutic options to combat chronic intracellular infections and biofilms so as to shorten the hospital stays, and hence mortality. Nanomaterials have been developed as delivery carriers for antibiotics to improve their penetration through these biofilms. Nanoformulations of existing antibiotics has led to enhanced bioavailability and site specificity. Moreover, diagnosis of infections using efficient nanosensors or probes may speed up the treatment process at earlier stages of infection.

Abstract:
Preterm and critically ill infants are treated in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs), where human milk is increasingly recommended and prescribed to this population as a medical intervention [1]. However, due to the medical acuity and complex character of caring for preterm infants, sometimes feeding at the breast is not possible. When feeding at the breast is not possible medical devices or commercial products may influence a mothers’ decision to express human milk for her NICU infant. Feeding human milk to infants cared for in NICUs reduces rates of mortality by decreasing instances of ne

Abstract:
A quarter of a million people in the United States are affected by spinal cord injury (SCI), which causes loss of sensation and muscle function. Improvements in clinical care have resulted in a lower risk of mortality from initial complications like bedsores or urosepsis, though patients are more susceptible to long term conditions like coronary heart disease [1], which is a leading cause of death for SCI patients [2]. Patients with SCI have sedentary lifestyles, decreased aerobic fitness, and limited levels of oxygen uptake, which contribute to increased rates of cardiovascular complications
