Prolonged and improper usage of antibiotics has been shown as a main reason for the emergence multidrug-resistant pathogens.Antimicrobial stewardship (AMS) programs have to reduce rate resistance. De-escalation antimicrobials is an important component AMS. AMS programmes require regular auditing feedback proper implementation continuous improvement. Hence we did this clinical audit with aim est...

BACKGROUND Acute mountain sickness (AMS) occurs in non-acclimatized people after an acute ascent to an altitude of 2,500 m or higher. The aim of this study was to examine the incidence and severity of AMS and associated symptoms in children. METHODS The prospective observational study included 197 healthy, non-acclimatized 11 and 12-year-old children trekking the round-trip from the trailhead...

Field studies of acute mountain sickness (AMS) usually include variations in exercise, diet, and environmental conditions over days and development of clinically apparent edemas. The purpose of this study was to clarify fluid status in persons developing AMS vs. those remaining without symptoms during simulated altitude with controlled fluid intake, diet, temperature, and without exercise. Nine...

The pathophysiology of acute mountain sickness (AMS) is unknown. One hypothesis is that hypoxia induces biochemical changes that disrupt the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and, subsequently, lead to the development of cerebral edema and the defining symptoms of AMS. This study explores the relationship between AMS and biomarkers thought to protect against or contribute to BBB disruption. Twenty heal...
