- Fetal fibronectin testing for reducing the risk of preterm birth
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 29-Jul-2019
Fetal fibronectin (FFN) is an extracellular matrix glycoprotein localized at the maternal-fetal interface of the amniotic membranes, between chorion and decidua, where it is concentrated in this area between decidua and trophoblast. In normal conditions, - Fetal manipulation for facilitating tests of fetal wellbeing
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 6-Dec-2013
Manual fetal manipulation has been suggested to improve the efficiency of antepartum fetal heart rate testing. - Fetal movement counting for assessment of fetal wellbeing
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 15-Oct-2015
Fetal movement counting is a method by which a woman quantifies the movements she feels to assess the condition of her baby. The purpose is to try to reduce perinatal mortality by alerting caregivers when the baby might be compromised. This method may be - Fetal pulse oximetry for fetal assessment in labour
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 7-Oct-2014
The use of conventional cardiotocographic (CTG) monitoring of fetal well-being during labour is associated with an increased caesarean section rate, compared with intermittent auscultation of the fetal heart rate, resulting in a reduction in neonatal seiz - Fetal scalp stimulation for assessing fetal well‐being during labour
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 10-Jan-2023
Continuous fetal heart rate monitoring by cardiotocography (CTG) is used in labour for women with complicated pregnancies. Fetal heart rate abnormalities are common and may result in the decision to expedite delivery by caesarean section. Fetal scalp stim - Fetal vibroacoustic stimulation for facilitation of tests of fetal wellbeing
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 6-Dec-2013
Acoustic stimulation of the fetus has been suggested to improve the efficiency of antepartum fetal heart rate testing. - Feverfew for preventing migraine
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 20-Apr-2015
This review is an update of a previously published review in the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews on 'Feverfew for preventing migraine' (2004, Issue 1). Feverfew (Tanacetum parthenium L.) extract is a herbal remedy, which has been used for preventi - Fewer-than-four ports versus four ports for laparoscopic cholecystectomy
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 19-Feb-2014
Traditionally, laparoscopic cholecystectomy is performed using two 10-mm ports and two 5-mm ports. Recently, a reduction in the number of ports has been suggested as a modification of the standard technique with a view to decreasing pain and improving cos - Fibrates for primary prevention of cardiovascular disease events
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 16-Nov-2016
Fibrates are effective for modifying atherogenic dyslipidaemia, and particularly for lowering serum triglycerides. However, evidence that fibrates reduce mortality and morbidity associated with cardiovascular disease (CVD), or overall mortality and morbid - Fibrates for secondary prevention of cardiovascular disease and stroke
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 25-Oct-2015
Fibrates are a class of drugs characterised by mainly lowering high triglyceride, raising high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, and lowering the small dense fraction of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol. Their efficacy for secondary preventi - Fibreoptic phototherapy for neonatal jaundice
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 22-Jan-2001
Phototherapy is used to treat newborn infants with hyperbilirubinaemia. Fibreoptic phototherapy is a new mode of phototherapy which is reported to lower serum bilirubin (SBR) while minimising disruption of normal infant care. - Fibrin glue for pilonidal sinus disease
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 13-Jan-2017
Pilonidal sinus disease is a common condition that mainly affects young adults. This condition can cause significant pain and impairment of normal activities. No consensus currently exists on the optimum treatment for pilonidal sinus and current therapies - Fibrin glue instillation under skin flaps to prevent seroma‐related morbidity following breast and axillary surgery
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 31-May-2013
Fibrin glue (FG) combines fibrinogen and thrombin, under the presence of factor XIII and calcium chloride, and produces a 'fibrin clot' as would occur through the natural clotting cascade. FG is thought to close over any small vessels including lymphatics - Fibrin glue versus sutures for conjunctival autografting in primary pterygium surgery
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 2-Dec-2016
Pterygium, a growth of the conjunctiva over the cornea, is a progressive disease leading in advanced stages to visual impairment, restriction of ocular motility, chronic inflammation and cosmetic concerns. Surgical removal is the treatment of choice, but - Fibrin sealant use for minimising peri‐operative allogeneic blood transfusion
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 20-Jan-2003
Fibrin sealants (also referred to as biological glue or fibrin tissue adhesives) have gained increasing popularity as interventions to improve peri-operative (intra- and post-operative) haemostasis and diminish the need for allogeneic red cell transfusion - Fibrin sealants for the prevention of postoperative pancreatic fistula following pancreatic surgery
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 11-Mar-2020
Postoperative pancreatic fistula is one of the most frequent and potentially life-threatening complications following pancreatic resections. Fibrin sealants have been used in some centers to reduce postoperative pancreatic fistula. However, the use of fib - Fibrinogen concentrate in bleeding patients
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 29-Aug-2013
Hypofibrinogenaemia is associated with increased morbidity and mortality, but the optimal treatment level, the use of preemptive treatment and the preferred source of fibrinogen remain disputed. Fibrinogen concentrate is increasingly used and recommended - Fibrinogen depleting agents for acute ischaemic stroke
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 31-Oct-2013
Fibrinogen depleting agents reduce fibrinogen in blood plasma, reduce blood viscosity and hence increase blood flow. This may help remove the blood clot blocking the artery and re-establish blood flow to the affected area of the brain after an ischaemic s - Fibrinolytic agents for peripheral arterial occlusion
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 18-Dec-2013
Peripheral arterial thrombolysis is used in the management of peripheral arterial ischaemia. Streptokinase was originally used but safety concerns led to a search for other agents. Urokinase and recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA) have increa - Fibrinolytic therapy for intraventricular hemorrhage in adults
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 22-Jul-2002
Spontaneous or secondary intraventricular hemorrhage is a marker of poor prognosis for hemorrhagic stroke. It can cause hydrocephalus and require ventricular shunt placement, result in permanent neurological deficits or death. Fibrinolytic agents injected
