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 - 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
Cigarette smoking is one of the leading causes of preventable death world wide. There is good evidence that brief interventions from health professionals can increase smoking cessation attempts. A number of trials have examined whether skills training for - Training interventions for improving telephone consultation skills in clinicians
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 8-Feb-2017
Since 1879, the year of the first documented medical telephone consultation, the ability to consult by telephone has become an integral part of modern patient-centred healthcare systems. Nowadays, up to a quarter of all care consultations are conducted by - Tramadol for neuropathic pain in adults
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 15-Jun-2017
This review is an update of a review of tramadol for neuropathic pain, published in 2006; updating was to bring the review in line with current standards.

Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 15-Jun-2015
Postpartum haemorrhage (PPH) is a common and potentially life-threatening complication of labour. Several options for preventing PPH are available, but further advances in this field are important, especially the identification of safe, easy to use and co - Tranexamic acid for reducing mortality in emergency and urgent surgery
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 12-Feb-2013
Emergency or urgent surgery, which can be defined as surgery which must be done promptly to save life, limb or functional capacity, is associated with a high risk of bleeding and death. Antifibrinolytic agents, such as tranexamic acid, inhibit blood clot - Transabdominal amnioinfusion for improving fetal outcomes after oligohydramnios secondary to preterm prelabour rupture of membranes before 26 weeks
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 15-Jul-2013
Preterm prelabour rupture of membranes (PPROM) before 26 weeks can delay lung development and can cause pulmonary hypoplasia, as a result of oligohydramnios.

Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 4-Aug-2008
The choice of approach to the laparoscopic repair of inguinal hernia is controversial.
