OBJECTIVE to determine the relationship between age and in-hospital mortality of elderly patients, admitted to ICU, requiring and not r...
متن کاملAssessment of Body Composition Using Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis in Preterm Neonates Receiving Intensive Care.
AIM Evaluation of bioelectrical impedance values and body composition during early infancy in groups of preterm newborns and full-term newborns. MATERIAL AND METHODS A total of 38 newborns was enrolled in the study: 26 very low birth weight preterm newborns with the mean birth weight of 1236 g (SD: 161) as the study group and 12 term newborns with birth weight of 2500-4000 g as the control gr...
متن کاملAssociation between Red Cell Distribution Width and Mortality in Pediatric Patients Admitted to Intensive Care Units
Background: Red cell distribution width (RDW) is a routine laboratory measure that could be used as a predictor of mortality in critically ill patients. Identification of patients at risk for mortality early in the course of PICU admission is an important step in improving the outcome. We aimed to assess the use of RDW as an early biomarker for outcome in pediatric critical illnesses. Methods:...
