Background: To evaluate the association between pre/post-procedural high sensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) level and hs-CRP difference, and the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) or new diffusion-weighted MRI lesions after carotid angioplasty and stenting (CAS). Methods: In this study, conducted in 2016 in Shiraz (Iran), patients who underwent diagnostic angiography and CAS...

Background: Transradial coronary intervention (TRI) is a widely practiced procedure in Taiwan. Most TRIs are performed using 6 French guiding catheters. Use of smaller-sized vascular sheaths and guiding catheters may further decrease the incidence of vascular access complication, but demand more operator experience and skills in manipulation of the catheter. We report our experience in using 5 ...

BACKGROUND Learner satisfaction assessment is critical in the design and improvement of training programs. However, little is known about what influences satisfaction and whether trainee specialty is correlated. A national comparison of satisfaction among internal medicine subspecialty fellows in the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) provides a unique opportunity to examine educational factor...

Theories of procedural justice suggest that individuals who experience respectful and fair legal decision-making procedures are more likely to believe in the legitimacy of the law and, in turn, are less likely to reoffend. However, few studies have examined these relationships in youth. To begin to fill this gap in the literature, in the current study, the authors studied 92 youth (67 male, 25 ...

AIM Procedural sedation and analgesia allows urgent procedures to be performed safely by preserving patients' airway reflexes. Fasting, which is required before deeper levels of sedation, and where the airway reflexes are not preserved, is difficult to impose in emergencies. This paper aims to synthesise evidence on the need for pre-procedure fasting to minimise aspiration among adults undergoi...

OBJECTIVES To evaluate the rate of adverse respiratory events and vomiting among ED patients undergoing procedural sedation with propofol. METHODS This was a prospective, observational series of patients undergoing procedural sedation. Titrated i.v. propofol was administered via protocol. Fasting status was recorded. RESULTS Four hundred patients undergoing sedation were enrolled. Of these ...

The purpose of the present study was to explore the possibility of a procedural learning deficit among children with Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD). We tested 34 children aged 6 to 12 years with and without DCD using the serial reaction time task, in which the standard keyboard was replaced by a touch screen in order to minimize the impact of perceptuomotor coordination difficulties ...
