- Means restriction for the prevention of suicide by jumping
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 21-Feb-2020
Jumping from a height is an uncommon but lethal means of suicide. Restricting access to means is an important universal or population-based approach to suicide prevention with clear evidence of its effectiveness. However, the evidence with respect to mean - Means restriction for the prevention of suicide on roads
Cochrane Systematic Reviews,
Road traffic suicides are common. However, due to the difficulty in distinguishing between motor vehicle crash fatalities and actual suicides, no official figures exist for this method of suicide. Restricting access to means is an important universal or p - Measures implemented in the school setting to contain the COVID‐19 pandemic: a rapid scoping review
Cochrane Systematic Reviews,
In response to the spread of SARS-CoV-2 and the impact of COVID-19, national and subnational governments implemented a variety of measures in order to control the spread of the virus and the associated disease. While these measures were imposed with the i - Mecamylamine (a nicotine antagonist) for smoking cessation
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 21-Jun-2011
Mecamylamine is a nicotine antagonist (that is, it blocks the effect of nicotine). The rationale for its use in smoking cessation is that it may block the rewarding effect of nicotine and thus reduce the urge to smoke. - Mechanical and surgical interventions for treating primary postpartum haemorrhage
Cochrane Systematic Reviews,
Primary postpartum haemorrhage (PPH) is commonly defined as bleeding from the genital tract of 500 mL or more within 24 hours of birth. It is one of the most common causes of maternal mortality worldwide and causes significant physical and psychological m - Mechanical assist devices for acute cardiogenic shock
Cochrane Systematic Reviews,
Cardiogenic shock (CS) is a state of critical end-organ hypoperfusion due to a primary cardiac disorder. For people with refractory CS despite maximal vasopressors, inotropic support and intra-aortic balloon pump, mortality approaches 100%. Mechanical ass - Mechanical bowel preparation for elective colorectal surgery
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 9-Aug-2011
The presence of bowel contents during colorectal surgery has been related to anastomotic leakage, but the belief that mechanical bowel preparation (MBP) is an efficient agent against leakage and infectious complications is based on observational data and - Mechanical devices for urinary incontinence in women
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 17-Dec-2014
Incontinence can have a devastating effect on the lives of sufferers with significant economic implications. Non-surgical treatments such as pelvic floor muscle training and the use of mechanical devices are usually the first line of management, particula - Mechanical dilatation of the cervix during elective caesarean section before the onset of labour for reducing postoperative morbidity
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 8-Nov-2018
During elective (planned) caesarean sections, some obstetricians routinely dilate the cervix intraoperatively, using sponge forceps, a finger, or other instruments, because the cervix of women not in labour may not be dilated, and this may cause obstructi - Mechanical insufflation-exsufflation for people with neuromuscular disorders
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 22-Dec-2013
People with neuromuscular disorders (NMDs) may have weak respiratory (breathing) muscles which makes it difficult for them to effectively cough and clear mucus from the lungs. This places them at risk of recurrent chest infections and chronic lung disease - Mechanical methods for induction of labour
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 17-Oct-2019
Mechanical methods were the first methods developed to ripen the cervix and induce labour. During recent decades they have been substituted by pharmacological methods. Potential advantages of mechanical methods, compared with pharmacological methods may i - Mechanical traction for neck pain with or without radiculopathy
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 18-Jan-2011
Neck pain is a frequently reported complaint of the musculoskeletal system which can be disabling and costly to society. Mechanical traction is often used as an adjunct therapy in outpatient rehabilitation. - Mechanical ventilation for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis/motor neuron disease
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 25-Jun-2018
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), also known as motor neuron disease, is a fatal neurodegenerative disease. Neuromuscular respiratory failure is the most common cause of death, which usually occurs within two to five years of the disease onset. Support - Mechanical ventilation for newborn infants with respiratory failure due to pulmonary disease
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 25-Feb-2013
Mechanical ventilation (MV) for critically ill neonates was introduced in the 1960s and is now standard treatment for infants with severe RDS. However, the degree to which this made a contribution to the outcome of such infants is uncertain. - Mechanical versus manual chest compressions for cardiac arrest
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 18-Aug-2018
Mechanical chest compression devices have been proposed to improve the effectiveness of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). - Mechanically assisted walking training for walking, participation, and quality of life in children with cerebral palsy
Cochrane Systematic Reviews,
Cerebral palsy is the most common physical disability in childhood. Mechanically assisted walking training can be provided with or without body weight support to enable children with cerebral palsy to perform repetitive practice of complex gait cycles. It - Media campaigns for the prevention of illicit drug use in young people
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 30-May-2013
Substance-specific mass media campaigns which address young people are widely used to prevent illicit drug use. They aim to reduce use and raise awareness of the problem. - Media‐based behavioural treatments for behavioural problems in children
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 10-Nov-2008
Many approaches are used to address behavioural problems in childhood including medication or, more usually, psychological treatments either directly with the child and/or his/her family. Behavioural and cognitive-behavioural interventions have been shown - Media-delivered cognitive behavioural therapy and behavioural therapy (self-help) for anxiety disorders in adults
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 3-Sep-2013
Anxiety disorders are the most common mental health problems. They are chronic and unremitting. Effective treatments are available, but access to services is limited. Media-delivered behavioural and cognitive behavioural interventions (self-help) aim to d - Mediastinal chest drain clearance for cardiac surgery
Cochrane Systematic Reviews,
Cardiac tamponade may occur following cardiac surgery as a result of blood or fluid collecting in the pericardial space compressing the heart and reducing cardiac output. Mediastinal chest drains (including pericardial drains) are inserted as standard pos
