Correlation between low T3 syndrome and mortality rate in patients with systolic heart failure
Introduction: This study was performed to evaluate the prevalence of low T3 syndrome among patients with heart failure and to assess the correlation between decreased level of tri iodothyronin (T3) with mortality rate. Methods: In a prospective cross-sectional study, 91 patients with systolic heart failure were admitted to Mohammadi hospital in Bandar Abbas in 2008.Thyroid function test w...
متن کاملHeart rate variability and its association with mortality in prehospital trauma patients.
BACKGROUND Accurate prehospital triage of trauma patients is difficult, especially in mass casualty situations. Accordingly, the U.S. Military has initiated a program directed toward improving noninvasive prehospital triage algorithms based on available physiologic data. The purpose of this study was to assess heart rate variability and its association with mortality in prehospital trauma patie...
متن کاملHeart-rate complexity for prediction of prehospital lifesaving interventions in trauma patients.
BACKGROUND Traditional vital signs often fail to identify critically injured patients soon enough to permit timely intervention. To improve our ability to forecast the need for prehospital lifesaving interventions (LSIs), we applied heart-rate complexity (HRC) analysis to the electrocardiogram (ECG) of patients en route to trauma centers. METHODS Analysis of ECG and clinical data from 374 pat...
متن کاملPrehospital loss of R-to-R interval complexity is associated with mortality in trauma patients.
BACKGROUND To improve our ability to identify physiologic deterioration caused by critical injury, we applied nonlinear analysis to the R-to-R interval (RRI) of the electrocardiogram of prehospital trauma patients. METHODS Ectopy-free, 800-beat sections of electrocardiogram from 31 patients were identified. Twenty patients survived (S) and 11 died (NonS) after hospital admission. Demographic ...
متن کاملDecreased mortality after prehospital interventions in severely injured trauma patients.
BACKGROUND We test the hypothesis that prehospital interventions (PHIs) performed by skilled emergency medical service providers during ground or air transport adversely affect outcome in severely injured trauma patients. METHODS Consecutive trauma activations (March 2012 to June 2013) transported from the scene by air or ground emergency medical service providers were reviewed. PHI was defin...
