- Head midline position for preventing the occurrence or extension of germinal matrix-intraventricular hemorrhage in preterm infants
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 20-Jul-2017
Preterm birth is known to constitute the major risk factor for development of germinal matrix-intraventricular hemorrhage (GM-IVH). Head position may affect cerebral hemodynamics and thus may be involved indirectly in development of GM-IVH. Turning the he - Head-to-head trials of antibiotics for bronchiectasis
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 13-Aug-2018
The diagnosis of bronchiectasis is defined by abnormal dilation of the airways related to a pathological mechanism of progressive airway destruction that is due to a 'vicious cycle' of recurrent bacterial infection, inflammatory mediator release, airway d - Healing by primary versus secondary intention after surgical treatment for pilonidal sinus
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 7-Dec-2010
Pilonidal sinus arises in the hair follicles in the buttock cleft. The estimated incidence is 26 per 100,000, people, affecting men twice as often as women. These chronic discharging wounds cause pain and impact upon quality of life. Surgical strategies c - Health system and community level interventions for improving antenatal care coverage and health outcomes
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 26-Nov-2015
The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends at least four antenatal care (ANC) visits for all pregnant women. Almost half of pregnant women worldwide, and especially in developing countries do not receive this amount of care. Poor attendance of ANC is - Healthcare financing systems for increasing the use of tobacco dependence treatment
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 12-Sep-2017
Tobacco smoking is the leading preventable cause of death worldwide, which makes it essential to stimulate smoking cessation. The financial cost of smoking cessation treatment can act as a barrier to those seeking support. We hypothesised that provision o - Hearing aids for mild to moderate hearing loss in adults
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 25-Sep-2017
The main clinical intervention for mild to moderate hearing loss is the provision of hearing aids. These are routinely offered and fitted to those who seek help for hearing difficulties. By amplifying and improving access to sounds, and speech sounds in p - Heat and moisture exchangers versus heated humidifiers for mechanically ventilated adults and children
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 13-Dec-2018
Invasive ventilation is used to assist or replace breathing when a person is unable to breathe adequately on their own. Because the upper airway is bypassed during mechanical ventilation, the respiratory system is no longer able to warm and moisten inhale - Heated insufflation with or without humidification for laparoscopic abdominal surgery
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 17-Oct-2016
Intraoperative hypothermia during both open and laparoscopic abdominal surgery may be associated with adverse events. For laparoscopic abdominal surgery, the use of heated insufflation systems for establishing pneumoperitoneum has been described to preven - Heated, humidified air for the common cold
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 28-Aug-2017
Heated, humidified air has long been used by people with the common cold. The theoretical basis is that steam may help congested mucus drain better and that heat may destroy the cold virus as it does in vitro. This is an update of a review last published - Helicobacter pylori eradication for Parkinson's disease
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 20-Sep-2011
Levodopa is the mainstay of treatment for alleviating the motor symptoms associated with Parkinson's disease. However, patients often experience fluctuations in their symptoms over time and 'wearing off' which may be partly related to variable absorption - Helicobacter pylori eradication for the prevention of gastric neoplasia
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 12-Jun-2015
Gastric cancer is the third most common cause of cancer death worldwide. Individuals infected with Helicobacter pylori have a higher likelihood of developing gastric cancer than individuals who are not infected. Eradication of H. pylori in healthy asympto - Helicobacter pylori eradication therapy vs. antisecretory non-eradication therapy (with or without long-term maintenance antisecretory therapy) for the prevention of recurrent bleeding from peptic ulcer
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 20-Sep-2010
Peptic ulcer is the main cause for upper gastrointestinal haemorrhage, and Helicobacter pylori (H.pylori) infection is the main etiologic factor for peptic ulcer disease. Maintenance antisecretory therapy is the standard long-term treatment for patients w - Helicopter emergency medical services for adults with major trauma
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 11-Dec-2015
Although helicopters are presently an integral part of trauma systems in most developed nations, previous reviews and studies to date have raised questions about which groups of traumatically injured people derive the greatest benefit. - Heliox for croup in children
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 29-Oct-2018
Croup is an acute viral respiratory infection with upper airway mucosal inflammation that may cause respiratory distress. Most cases are mild. Moderate to severe croup may require treatment with corticosteroids (from which benefits are often delayed) and - Heliox for non-intubated acute asthma patients
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 5-Jun-2014
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, 25-Sep-2008
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, 15-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, 5-Nov-2008
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
