Overweight and obesity (body mass index (BMI) = 25.0 to 29.9 kg/m2 and BMI = 30 kg/m2, respectively are increasingly common among women of reproductive age. Overweight and obesity are known to be associated with many adverse health conditions in the preco - Directly observed therapy for treating tuberculosis
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 29-May-2015
Tuberculosis (TB) requires at least six months of treatment. If treatment is incomplete, patients may not be cured and drug resistance may develop. Directly Observed Therapy (DOT) is a specific strategy, endorsed by the World Health Organization, to impro - Discharge planning from hospital
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 24-Feb-2022
Discharge planning is a routine feature of health systems in many countries that aims to reduce delayed discharge from hospital, and improve the co-ordination of services following discharge from hospital and reduce the risk of hospital readmission. This - Disclosing to parents newborn carrier status identified by routine blood spot screening
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 25-Nov-2013
Newborn blood spot screening programmes are designed to detect serious conditions affecting individuals, where early treatment can improve health. It is suggested that screening can improve the experience of diagnosis for parents. For example, without new - Discontinuation of epidural analgesia late in labour for reducing the adverse delivery outcomes associated with epidural analgesia
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 18-Oct-2004
Although epidural analgesia provides the most effective labour analgesia, it is associated with some adverse obstetric consequences, including an increased risk of instrumental delivery. Many centres discontinue epidural analgesia late in labour to improv - Discontinuation of intravenous oxytocin in the active phase of induced labour
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 20-Aug-2018
In most Western countries, obstetricians and midwives induce labour in about 25% of pregnant women. Oxytocin is an effective drug for this purpose, but associated with serious adverse effects of which uterine tachysystole, fetal distress and the need for - Disease management interventions for heart failure
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 8-Jan-2019
Despite advances in treatment, the increasing and ageing population makes heart failure an important cause of morbidity and death worldwide. It is associated with high healthcare costs, partly driven by frequent hospital readmissions. Disease management i - Disease modifying anti‐rheumatic drugs in people with cystic fibrosis‐related arthritis
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 12-Sep-2012
Arthritis remains a relatively infrequent complication of cystic fibrosis, but is a cause of significant morbidity when it does occur. Two distinct types of arthritis are described in cystic fibrosis: cystic fibrosis-related arthropathy and hypertrophic o - Disease‐modifying treatments for primary autoimmune haemolytic anaemia
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 31-Mar-2021
Primary autoimmune haemolytic anaemia (AIHA) is an autoantibody mediated condition characterised by a variable disease course. A myriad of immunomodulatory agents have been employed but there is a paucity of evidence to support their use or compare their - Disposable nappies for preventing napkin dermatitis in infants
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 19-Jul-2006
Napkin dermatitis is a common condition that occurs in otherwise healthy infants. It causes discomfort to infants, anxiety to parents and caregivers and contributes to the load on the health care system. A large variety of napkins, both disposable and non - Disposable surgical face masks for preventing surgical wound infection in clean surgery
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 26-Apr-2016
Surgical face masks were originally developed to contain and filter droplets containing microorganisms expelled from the mouth and nasopharynx of healthcare workers during surgery, thereby providing protection for the patient. However, there are several w - Dissection versus diathermy for tonsillectomy

Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 3-Feb-2012
During thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm (TAAA) surgery, decreased spinal cord perfusion can result in neurological deficits such as paraplegia and paraparesis. Distal aortic perfusion, alone or in combination with other adjuncts, may counter the decrease - Distraction techniques for schizophrenia
