Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 2-Jul-2014
The IQCODE (Informant Questionnaire for Cognitive Decline in the Elderly) is a commonly used questionnaire based tool that uses collateral information to assess for cognitive decline and dementia. Brief tools that can be used for dementia "screening" or " - Informant Questionnaire on Cognitive Decline in the Elderly (IQCODE) for the diagnosis of dementia within a secondary care setting
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 9-Mar-2015
The diagnosis of dementia relies on the presence of new-onset cognitive impairment affecting an individual's functioning and activities of daily living. The Informant Questionnaire on Cognitive Decline in the Elderly (IQCODE) is a questionnaire instrument - Informant Questionnaire on Cognitive Decline in the Elderly (IQCODE) for the diagnosis of dementia within community dwelling populations
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 9-Apr-2014
Various tools exist for initial assessment of possible dementia with no consensus on the optimal assessment method. Instruments that use collateral sources to assess change in cognitive function over time may have particular utility. The most commonly use - Information and communication technology based prompting for treatment compliance for people with serious mental illness
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 16-Jun-2014
Non-compliance is a significant problem among people with serious mental disorders, presenting a challenge for mental health professionals. Prompts such as telephone calls, visits, and a posted referral letter to patients are currently used to encourage p - Information for pregnant women about caesarean birth
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 15-Feb-2011
Information is routinely given to pregnant women, but information about caesarean birth may be inadequate. - Information interventions for orienting patients and their carers to cancer care facilities
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 16-Nov-2011
Cancer patients experience distress and anxiety related to their diagnosis, treatment and the unfamiliar cancer centre. Strategies with the aim of orienting patients to a cancer care facility may improve patient outcomes. Although meeting patients' inform - Information or education interventions for adult intensive care unit (ICU) patients and their carers
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 8-Oct-2018
During intensive care unit (ICU) admission, patients and their carers experience physical and psychological stressors that may result in psychological conditions including anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Improving communica - Infraclavicular brachial plexus block for regional anaesthesia of the lower arm
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 27-Aug-2013
Several approaches exist to produce local anaesthetic blockade of the brachial plexus. It is not clear which is the technique of choice for providing surgical anaesthesia of the lower arm, although infraclavicular blockade (ICB) has several purported adva - Infusion techniques for peripheral arterial thrombolysis
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 19-Oct-2008
Thrombolytic therapy is a useful tool in the management of acute peripheral arterial ischaemia. Fibrinolytic drugs are used to disperse blood clot to clear arterial occlusion. A variety of techniques are used to deliver these agents. - Inhaled anticholinergics and short-acting beta2-agonists versus short-acting beta2-agonists alone for children with acute asthma in hospital
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 30-Jul-2014
Inhaled anticholinergics given in addition to ß2-agonists are effective in reducing hospital admissions in children presenting to the emergency department with a moderate to severe asthma exacerbation. It seems logical to assume a similar beneficial effec - Inhaled anti-pseudomonal antibiotics for long-term therapy in cystic fibrosis
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 29-Mar-2018
Inhaled antibiotics are commonly used to treat persistent airway infection with Pseudomonas aeruginosa that contributes to lung damage in people with cystic fibrosis. Current guidelines recommend inhaled tobramycin for individuals with cystic fibrosis and - Inhaled beta2-agonists for asthma in mechanically ventilated patients
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 25-Oct-2011
A small number of patients with acute severe asthma require intubation and positive pressure ventilation. The beneficial effects of inhaled bronchodilators on acute asthma in spontaneously breathing subjects are well established, but there remain importan - Inhaled beta2-agonists for non-specific chronic cough in children
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 29-Mar-2009
The pathophysiology of so called 'cough variant asthma' has not received a great deal of research interest and opinion lies divided as to whether it is really asthma or not. The proponents of cough variant asthma suggest a therapeutic trial of medications - Inhaled bronchodilators for cystic fibrosis
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 11-Feb-2016
Recurrent wheeze and breathlessness are common in people with cystic fibrosis, and bronchodilators are commonly prescribed. Despite their wide-scale and often long-term use, there is limited objective evidence about their efficacy in cystic fibrosis (CF).
