Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 18-Oct-2006
Helium and oxygen mixtures (heliox), have been used sporadically in respiratory medicine for decades. Their use in acute respiratory emergencies such as asthma has been the subject of considerable debate. Despite the lapse of more than 60 years since it w - Heliox for treatment of exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 22-Jan-2001
Due to its low density properties, helium-oxygen mixtures have the potential to decrease the work of breathing and possibly avoid the need for intubation and mechanical ventilation in patients with respiratory failure. - Heliox inhalation therapy for bronchiolitis in infants
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 18-Sep-2015
Bronchiolitis is the leading cause of hospitalisation among infants in high-income countries. Acute viral bronchiolitis is associated with airway obstruction and turbulent gas flow. Heliox, a mixture of oxygen and the inert gas helium, may improve gas flo - Helmets for preventing head and facial injuries in bicyclists
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 25-Oct-1999
Each year, in the United States, approximately 900 persons die from injuries due to bicycle crashes and over 500,000 persons are treated in emergency departments. Head injury is by far the greatest risk posed to bicyclists, comprising one-third of emergen - Helmets for preventing injury in motorcycle riders
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 21-Sep-2008
Motorcycle crash victims form a high proportion of those killed or injured in road traffic crashes. Injuries to the head, following motorcycle crashes, are a common cause of severe morbidity and mortality. It seems intuitive that helmets should protect ag - Helminth therapy (worms) for allergic rhinitis
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 21-Jun-2013
Allergic rhinitis is a disorder of the nasal membranes and surrounding tissues, and a worldwide cause of illness and disability. Helminths are complex tissue-dwelling or lumen-dwelling organisms that inhabit larger organisms and are frequently asymptomati - Helminth therapy (worms) for induction of remission in inflammatory bowel disease
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 14-Jan-2014
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic, globally-occurring gastrointestinal disorder and a major cause of illness and disability. It is conventionally classified into Crohn’s disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC). Helminths are parasitic worms w - Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for Gaucher disease
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 18-Oct-2017
Gaucher disease is the most common lysosomal storage disorder caused by a deficiency of the enzyme glucocerebrosidase. Current treatment of the disease involves a choice from enzyme replacement therapy, substrate reduction therapy and hemotopoietic stem c - Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for people with sickle cell disease
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 3-Jul-2020
Sickle cell disease is a genetic disorder involving a defect in the red blood cells due to its sickled hemoglobin. The main therapeutic interventions include preventive and supportive measures. Hematopoietic stem cell transplantations are carried out with - Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for people with β‐thalassaemia
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 21-Apr-2021
Thalassaemia is an autosomal recessive blood disorder, caused by mutations in globin genes or their regulatory regions, resulting in a reduced rate of synthesis of one of the globin chains that make up haemoglobin. In ß-thalassaemia there is an underprodu - Hemodialysis for lithium poisoning
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 16-Sep-2015
Lithium salts, particularly lithium carbonate, are frequently used to treat bipolar disorder and mania. Lithium poisoning, which can occur as a result of reduced renal elimination, prescribing error, drug-drug interactions, or deliberate overdosage, produ - Heparin and related substances for preventing diabetic kidney disease
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 1-Aug-2010
Diabetic kidney disease (DKD, also called diabetic nephropathy, DN) is the major cause of end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) in many countries and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality as compared to other causes of kidney disease. One of the - Heparin for assisted reproduction
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 3-Sep-2014
Heparin as an adjunct in assisted reproduction (peri-implantation heparin) is given at or after egg collection or at embryo transfer. Heparin has been advocated to improve embryo implantation and clinical outcomes. It is proposed that heparin may enhance - Heparin for pregnant women with acquired or inherited thrombophilias
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 22-Apr-2003
Thrombophilias, which are associated with a predisposition to thrombotic events, have been implicated in adverse obstetrical outcomes such as intrauterine growth restriction, stillbirth, severe early onset pre-eclampsia, and placental abruption. Heparin a - Heparin for prolonging peripheral intravenous catheter use in neonates
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 14-Jun-2011
Mechanical or infectious complications often necessitate their removal and/or replacement of peripheral intravenous catheters. Heparin has been shown to be effective in prolonging the patency of peripheral arterial catheters and central venous catheters, - Heparin for the prevention of intraventricular haemorrhage in preterm infants
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 5-May-2016
Preterm birth remains the major risk factor for the development of intraventricular haemorrhage, an injury that occurs in 25% of very low birth weight infants. Intraventricular haemorrhage is thought to be venous in origin and intrinsic thromboses in the - Heparin for the prevention of venous thromboembolism in acutely ill medical patients (excluding stroke and myocardial infarction)
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 7-May-2014
Venous thromboembolic disease has been extensively studied in surgical patients.

Medical patients differ - Heparin for the treatment of thrombosis in neonates
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 7-Nov-2016
Among pediatric patients, newborns are at highest risk of developing thromboembolism.
