Starting step III opioids for moderate to severe pain in cancer patients: dose titration: a systematic review.
The European Association for Palliative Care recommendation for starting morphine for cancer pain is dose titration with immediate release (IR) oral morphine given every 4 h with additionally doses for breakthrough pain. As part of a EU 6th framework programme to revise the guidelines we review the evidence regarding starting treatment and dose titration of opioids in adult patients with modera...
متن کاملWarfarin discontinuation after starting warfarin for atrial fibrillation.
BACKGROUND Although warfarin is widely recommended to prevent atrial fibrillation-related thromboembolism, many eligible patients do not take warfarin. The objective of this study was to describe factors associated with warfarin discontinuation in patients newly starting warfarin for atrial fibrillation. METHODS AND RESULTS We identified 4188 subjects newly starting warfarin in the Anticoagul...
متن کاملPredicting virological decay in patients starting combination antiretroviral therapy
OBJECTIVE Model trajectories of viral load measurements from time of starting combination antiretroviral therapy (cART), and use the model to predict whether patients will achieve suppressed viral load (≤200 copies/ml) within 6-months of starting cART. DESIGN Prospective cohort study including HIV-positive adults (UK Collaborative HIV Cohort Study). METHODS Eligible patients were antiretrov...
متن کاملPredicting Mortality in Patients with Diabetes Starting Dialysis
BACKGROUND While some prediction models have been developed for diabetic populations, prediction rules for mortality in diabetic dialysis patients are still lacking. Therefore, the objective of this study was to identify predictors for 1-year mortality in diabetic dialysis patients and use these results to develop a prediction model. METHODS Data were used from the Netherlands Cooperative Stu...
متن کاملFactors determining the maintenance dose of warfarin in Chinese patients.
Chinese patients are reportedly more sensitive than Caucasians to the anticoagulant effect of warfarin. We examined warfarin dose requirements and their determinants in 151 Chinese out-patients on stable maintenance dose of warfarin with international normalized ratio of 2 to 2.5. Mean daily warfarin requirement was 3.3 +/- 1.4 mg, much lower than reported doses in Caucasian patients. The most ...
