- Total intravenous anaesthesia versus inhalational anaesthesia for adults undergoing transabdominal robotic assisted laparoscopic surgery
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 4-Apr-2017
Rapid implementation of robotic transabdominal surgery has resulted in the need for re-evaluation of the most suitable form of anaesthesia. The overall objective of anaesthesia is to minimize perioperative risk and discomfort for patients both during and - Total or near-total thyroidectomy versus subtotal thyroidectomy for multinodular non-toxic goitre in adults
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 4-Aug-2015
Total thyroidectomy (TT) and subtotal thyroidectomy (ST) are worldwide treatment options for multinodular non-toxic goitre in adults. Near TT, defined as a postoperative thyroid remnant less than 1 mL, is supposed to be a similarly effective but safer opt - Total versus subtotal hysterectomy for benign gynaecological conditions
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 15-Mar-2012
Hysterectomy using an abdominal approach removes either the uterus alone (subtotal hysterectomy) or both the uterus and the cervix (total hysterectomy). The latter is more common but the outcomes have not been systematically compared. - Totally implantable vascular access devices for cystic fibrosis
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 23-Apr-2012
Totally implantable vascular access devices are widely used in people with cystic fibrosis to provide intermittent venous access for therapeutic infusions. Their use is associated with some complications such as thrombosis, embolism and infection. - Totally percutaneous versus surgical cut-down femoral artery access for elective bifurcated abdominal endovascular aneurysm repair
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 21-Feb-2017
Abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs) are a vascular condition with significant risk attached, particularly if they rupture. It is, therefore, critical to identify and repair these as an elective procedure before they rupture and require emergency surgery. Re - Touch therapies for pain relief in adults
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 22-Nov-2013
Pain is a global public health problem affecting the lives of large numbers of patients and their families. Touch therapies (Healing Touch (HT), Therapeutic Touch (TT) and Reiki) have been found to relieve pain, but some reviews have suggested there is in - TPO receptor agonist for chronic idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 29-May-2011
Chronic idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) is an acquired autoimmune disorder that is characterized predominantly by a low platelet count. Thrombopoietin (TPO) receptor agonists increase production of platelets by stimulating the TPO receptor in pe - Tracheal gas insufflation for the prevention of morbidity and mortality in mechanically ventilated newborn infants
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 16-Mar-2010
Tracheal gas insufflation (TGI) is a technique where a continuous flow of gas is instilled into the lower trachea during conventional mechanical ventilation. TGI can improve carbon dioxide removal with lower ventilation pressures and smaller tidal volumes - Tracheal intubation with a flexible intubation scope versus other intubation techniques for obese patients requiring general anaesthesia
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 16-Apr-2014
The prevalence of obesity (body mass index (BMI) > 30 kg/m2) is increasing in both developed and developing countries, leading to a rise in the numbers of obese patients requiring general anaesthesia. Obese patients are at increased risk of anaesthetic co - Tracheal suctioning without disconnection in intubated ventilated neonates
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 17-Apr-2012
Assisted mechanical ventilation is a necessity in the neonatal population for a variety of respiratory and surgical conditions. However, there are a number of potential hazards associated with this life saving intervention. New suctioning techniques have - Traction for low-back pain with or without sciatica
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 24-Jul-2013
Traction has been used to treat low-back pain (LBP), often in combination with other treatments. We included both manual and machine-delivered traction in this review. This is an update of a Cochrane review first published in 1995, and previously updated - Traditional birth attendant training for improving health behaviours and pregnancy outcomes
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 10-Jul-2012
Between the 1970s and 1990s, the World Health Organization promoted traditional birth attendant (TBA) training as one strategy to reduce maternal and neonatal mortality. To date, evidence in support of TBA training is limited but promising for some mortal - Traditional Chinese herbal products for stable angina
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 5-Mar-2013
Stable angina pectoris is a common condition, worldwide. Traditional Chinese herbal products (TCHP) are developed for treating stable angina pectoris in China. - Traditional Chinese medicinal herbs for the treatment of idiopathic chronic fatigue and chronic fatigue syndrome
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 15-Oct-2018
Chronic fatigue is increasingly common. Conventional medical care is limited in treating chronic fatigue, leading some patients to use traditional Chinese medicine therapies, including herbal medicine. - Traditional Chinese medicine for epilepsy
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 11-Mar-2014
Seizures are poorly controlled in many people with epilepsy, despite current antiepileptic treatments. Some turn to alternative or complementary therapy to treat their condition and the use of traditional Chinese medicinal herbs (TCMH) is increasingly pop - Traditional Chinese Medicine herbs for stopping bleeding from haemorrhoids
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 16-Aug-2010
Haemorrhoids is a common perianal disease, which often causes haematochezia. Besides a surgical operation or minimally invasive treatment, a variety of traditional Chinese medicinal herbs (TCMHs) have been used to treat bleeding haemorrhoids. - Traditional corticosteroids for induction of remission in Crohn's disease
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 28-Feb-2010
Historically, corticosteroids have been the most commonly used class of medication for induction of remission in Crohn's disease (CD). Corticosteroids down regulate production of inflammatory cytokines and interfere with NF-?B production, thereby blunting - Training and supportive programs for palliative care volunteers in community settings
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 7-Jul-2015
Palliative care is specialised health care to support people living with a terminal illness and their families. The involvement of volunteers can extend the range of activities offered by palliative care services, particularly for those living in the comm - Training health professionals in smoking cessation
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 5-Dec-2013
