Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 7-Dec-2009
Pulmonary emboli (PE) can have potentially fatal consequences.

Filters are designed t - Venlafaxine for neuropathic pain in adults
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 2-Jun-2017
Neuropathic pain, which is caused by nerve damage, is increasing in prevalence worldwide.

Venom immunotherapy (VIT) is commonly used for preventing further allergic reactions to insect stings in people who have had a sting reaction. The efficacy and safety of this treatment has not previously been assessed by a high-quality systematic review. - Venous cutdown versus the Seldinger technique for placement of totally implantable venous access ports
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 18-Aug-2016
Totally implantable venous access ports (TIVAPs) provide patients with a safe and permanent venous access, for instance in the administration of chemotherapy for oncology patients. There are several methods for TIVAP placement, and the optimal evidence-ba - Veno-venous bypass versus none for liver transplantation
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 15-Feb-2011
Veno-venous bypass is used to overcome the effects of clamping of the inferior vena cava and portal vein during liver transplanation. The routine use of veno-venous bypass is, however, controversial. - Very early discharge versus early discharge versus non-early discharge in children with cancer and febrile neutropenia
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 18-Feb-2016
Chemotherapy-induced neutropenia is a common adverse effect in children with cancer.

Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 20-Nov-2012
Fetal vibroacoustic stimulation (VAS) is a simple, non-invasive technique where a device is placed on the maternal abdomen over the region of the fetal head and sound is emitted at a predetermined level for several seconds. It is hypothesised that the res - Video feedback for parental sensitivity and attachment security in children under five years
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 27-Nov-2019
Children who are securely attached to at least one parent are able to be comforted by that parent when they are distressed and explore the world confidently by using that parent as a 'secure base'. Research suggests that a secure attachment enables childr - Videolaryngoscopy versus direct laryngoscopy for adult patients requiring tracheal intubation
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 5-Dec-2016
Successful tracheal intubation during general anaesthesia traditionally requires a line of sight to the larynx attained by positioning the head and neck and using a laryngoscope to retract the tongue and soft tissues of the floor of the mouth. Difficultie - Videolaryngoscopy versus direct laryngoscopy for tracheal intubation in children (excluding neonates)
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 24-May-2017
Direct laryngoscopy is the method currently used for tracheal intubation in children. It occasionally offers unexpectedly poor laryngeal views. Indirect laryngoscopy involves visualizing the vocal cords by means other than obtaining a direct sight, with t - Videolaryngoscopy versus direct laryngoscopy for tracheal intubation in neonates
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 14-May-2018
Establishment of a secure airway is a critical part of neonatal resuscitation in the delivery room and the neonatal unit. Videolaryngoscopy has the potential to facilitate successful endotracheal intubation and decrease adverse consequences of delay in ai - Vigabatrin for refractory partial epilepsy
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 4-Dec-2012
Epilepsy is a common neurological condition which affects between 0.5% and 1% of the population. Approximately 30% of people with epilepsy do not respond to treatment with currently available drugs.
