- Ileostomy or colostomy for temporary decompression of colorectal anastomosis
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 24-Jan-2007
The use of loop ileostomy or loop transverse colostomy represents an important issue in colorectal surgery. Despite a slight preference for a loop ileostomy as a temporary stoma, the best form for temporary decompression of colorectal anastomosis still re - Iloprost and cisaprost for Raynaud's phenomenon in progressive systemic sclerosis
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 27-Apr-1998
Scleroderma is a connective tissue disease causing fibrosis and commonly affects the skin and internal organs such as the GI tract, lungs, kidney and heart. - Image guided surgery for the resection of brain tumours
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 21-Sep-2016
Extent of resection is believed to be a key prognostic factor in neuro-oncology. Image guided surgery uses a variety of tools or technologies to help achieve this goal. It is not clear whether any of these, sometimes very expensive, tools (or their combin - Image‐guided glucocorticoid injection versus injection without image guidance for shoulder pain
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 26-Aug-2021
Despite widespread use, our 2012 Cochrane review did not confirm that use of imaging to guide glucocorticoid injection for people with shoulder pain improves its efficacy. - Image‐guided percutaneous procedure plus metronidazole versus metronidazole alone for uncomplicated amoebic liver abscess
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 21-Jan-2009
Metronidazole is the standard of care for uncomplicated amoebic liver abscesses (considering that complicated liver abscesses are those localized in left lobe, multiple, and/or pyogenic abscesses). However, a subset of patients with amoebic liver abscesse - Imaging for the exclusion of pulmonary embolism in pregnancy
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 26-Jan-2017
Pulmonary embolism is a leading cause of pregnancy-related death. An accurate diagnosis in pregnant patients is crucial to prevent untreated pulmonary embolism as well as unnecessary anticoagulant treatment and future preventive measures. Applied imaging - Imaging modalities for characterising focal pancreatic lesions
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 17-Apr-2017
Increasing numbers of incidental pancreatic lesions are being detected each year. Accurate characterisation of pancreatic lesions into benign, precancerous, and cancer masses is crucial in deciding whether to use treatment or surveillance. Distinguishing - Imaging modalities for the detection of posterior pelvic floor disorders in women with obstructed defaecation syndrome
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 23-Sep-2021
Obstructed defaecation syndrome (ODS) is difficulty in evacuating stools, requiring straining efforts at defaecation, having the sensation of incomplete evacuation, or the need to manually assist defaecation. This is due to a physical blockage of the faec - Imaging modalities for the non‐invasive diagnosis of endometriosis
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 26-Feb-2016
About 10% of women of reproductive age suffer from endometriosis. Endometriosis is a costly chronic disease that causes pelvic pain and subfertility. Laparoscopy, the gold standard diagnostic test for endometriosis, is expensive and carries surgical risks - Imaging modalities to inform the detection and diagnosis of early caries
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 15-Mar-2021
The detection and diagnosis of caries at the earliest opportunity is fundamental to the preservation of tooth tissue and maintenance of oral health. Radiographs have traditionally been used to supplement the conventional visual-tactile clinical examinatio - Imipramine for neuropathic pain in adults
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 19-May-2014
Antidepressants are widely used to treat chronic neuropathic pain (pain due to nerve damage), usually in doses below those at which they exert antidepressant effects. An earlier review that included all antidepressants for neuropathic pain is being replac - Imiquimod for anogenital warts in non-immunocompromised adults
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 26-Oct-2014
30% of people with anogenital warts (AGW) have spontaneous regression of lesions but there is no way to determine whether a specific lesion will remain. There are a wide range of options available for treating people with AGW and selection is based on cli - Immediate antiepileptic drug treatment, versus placebo, deferred, or no treatment for first unprovoked seizure
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 4-May-2021
This is an updated version of the Cochrane review previously published in 2016. - Immediate postabortal insertion of intrauterine devices
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 28-Jul-2014
The use of an effective contraceptive may be necessary after an abortion. Insertion of an intrauterine device (IUD) may be done the same day or later. Immediate IUD insertion is an option since the woman is not pregnant, pain of insertion is less because - Immediate postpartum insertion of intrauterine device for contraception
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 18-Jun-2015
Women who want to start intrauterine contraception (IUC) during the postpartum period might benefit from IUC insertion immediately after delivery. Postplacental insertion greatly reduces the risk of subsequent pregnancy and eliminates the need for a retur - Immediate referral to colposcopy versus cytological surveillance for minor cervical cytological abnormalities in the absence of HPV test
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 26-Jan-2017
A significant number of women are diagnosed with minor cytological abnormalities on cervical screening. Many authorities recommend surveillance as spontaneous regression might occur. However, attendance for cytological follow-up decreases with time and mi - Immediate sequential bilateral surgery versus delayed sequential bilateral surgery for cataracts
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 25-Apr-2022
Age-related cataract affects both eyes in most cases. Most people undergo cataract surgery in both eyes on separate days, referred to as delayed sequential bilateral cataract surgery (DSBCS). An alternative procedure involves operating on both eyes on the - Immediate start of hormonal contraceptives for contraception
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 12-Dec-2012
Health care providers often tell women to wait until the next menses to begin hormonal contraception. The intent is to avoid contraceptive use during an undetected pregnancy. An alternative is to start hormonal contraception immediately with back-up birth - Immediate versus deferred delivery of the preterm baby with suspected fetal compromise for improving outcomes
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 12-Jul-2016
Immediate delivery of the preterm fetus with suspected compromise may decrease the risk of damage due to intrauterine hypoxia. However, it may also increase the risks of prematurity. - Immediate versus deferred zidovudine (AZT) in asymptomatic or mildly symptomatic HIV infected adults
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 24-Jul-2000
Zidovudine (AZT) monotherapy was the first antiretroviral drug to be tested widely. Subsequent trials in asymptomatic or early symptomatic HIV infection indicated short-term delays in disease progression with AZT, but not improved survival.
