OBJECTIVE The Content and Quality in Briefs Instrument (CQB-I) was designed to develop a valid and reliable audit instrument to examine the content and quality of information in documents (briefs) created in the early stages of designing healthcare environments. BACKGROUND The importance of effective briefing has been emphasized in many research studies during the past two decades. However, t...
BACKGROUND Water displacement leg volumetry is a highly reproducible method, allowing the confirmation of efficacy of vasoactive substances. Nevertheless errors of its execution and the selection of unsuitable patients are likely to negatively affect the outcome of clinical studies in chronic venous insufficiency (CVI). DISCUSSION Placebo controlled double-blind drug studies in CVI were searc...
Cortical/cerebral visual impairment (CVI) is clinically defined as significant visual dysfunction caused by injury to visual pathways and structures occurring during early perinatal development. Depending on the location and extent of damage, children with CVI often present with a myriad of visual deficits including decreased visual acuity and impaired visual field function. Most striking, howe...
INTRODUCTION The pattern of venous reflux in Thai patients with chronic venous insufficiency (CVI) was studied in correlation with clinical manifestations. METHODS Ultrasonography findings and clinical data were prospectively collected and retrospectively reviewed. RESULTS CVI was found in 104 legs of 79 patients (mean age 59.8 ± 12.5 years; C4: 24.1%, C5: 8.9%, C6: 67.1%). 6.7% of the legs...
AIM Chronic venous insufficiency (CVI) is a chronic disease, whose disability has not been appreciated clearly, and several treatment costs are not covered by Public Health Service, probably because its any social impact is not well known. The aim of the study was to assess the impact of CVI on quality of life (QoL), and to compare the sensitivity of more diffused instruments for QoL assessment...
BACKGROUND Laryngotracheal stenosis as a late complication of prolonged endotracheal intubation is a life-threatening event. In order to determine the related risk factors for this complication, which may vary among different countries, designing a valid questionnaire is necessary. The aim of this study was to select the items and evaluate the face and content validities of a questionnaire deve...
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVES To (a) develop the Women With Vulvar Neoplasia-Patient-Reported Outcome (WOMAN-PRO) instrument as a measure of women's post-vulvar surgery symptom experience and informational needs, (b) examine its content validity, (c) describe modifications based on pilot testing, and (d) examine the content validity of the revised instrument. DESIGN Mixed-methods research project. SET...
Chronic venous insufficiency (CVI) describes diseases of the lower limb veins in which venous return is impaired and varicose veins and skin ulceration may develop. The roles o f purinergic signalling in regulation of vascular tone in the long saphenous vein (LSV) and in the trophic changes occurring in LSV muscle cells and epidermal keratinocytes in lower leg skin were studied. The purinergic ...
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to assess the ability of quantitative in vivo confocal microscopy (CM) to detect changes in cystine crystal volume in the cystinosisn (Ctns(-/-))mouse cornea following topical cysteamine therapy. METHODS Fifteen Ctns(-/-) mice were sequentially followed using in vivo CM from 3 to 10 months of age. In a second experiment, five mice receiving topical cystea...
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Clinical management of mineral bone disorder in patients with kidney failure is guided by biochemical targets, in particular parathyroid hormone (PTH) concentration. The biologic variation of PTH and other bone mineral markers was measured in hemodialysis patients to better define their role in management. DESIGN, SETTING, PARTICIPANTS, & MEASUREMENTS Intact PTH, bio...
