- Vena caval filters for the prevention of pulmonary embolism
Cochrane Systematic Reviews,
Pulmonary emboli (PE), or blood clots in the lungs,can be potentially fatal. Anticoagulation is the first line therapy to prevent PE. In some instances anticoagulation fails to prevent more emboli, or cannot be given because the person has a high risk of - Venepuncture versus heel lance for blood sampling in term neonates
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 27-Jan-2020
Heel lance has been the conventional method of blood sampling in neonates for screening tests. Neonates undergoing heel lance experience pain which cannot be completely alleviated. - 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. This may reflect improved diagnosis, or it may be due to increased incidence of diabetes-associated neuropathy, linked to increasing levels of obesity. Other types o - Venom immunotherapy for preventing allergic reactions to insect stings
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 25-Feb-2015
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 - Venous thromboembolism prophylaxis for women at risk during pregnancy and the early postnatal period
Cochrane Systematic Reviews,
Venous thromboembolism (VTE), although rare, is a major cause of maternal mortality and morbidity. Some women are at increased risk of VTE during pregnancy and the early postnatal period (e.g. caesarean section, family history of VTE, or thrombophilia), a - 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. - Ventriculo‐peritoneal shunting devices for hydrocephalus
Cochrane Systematic Reviews,
Hydrocephalus is a common neurological disorder, caused by a progressive accumulation of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) within the intracranial space that can lead to increased intracranial pressure, enlargement of the ventricles (ventriculomegaly) and, conseq - 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. Due to the high relative risk of infections and infectious complications, standard care for children with cancer and febrile neutropenia consists of routine hospitalizati - Very early versus delayed mobilisation after stroke
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 28-Sep-2018
Very early mobilisation (VEM) is performed in some stroke units and recommended in some acute stroke clinical guidelines. However, it is unclear whether very early mobilisation independently improves outcome after stroke. - Very tight versus tight control for diabetes in pregnancy
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 26-Oct-2008
Pregnancies complicated by pre-existing insulin dependent diabetes are high risk for a number of poor pregnancy and neonatal outcomes. - Vestibular rehabilitation for unilateral peripheral vestibular dysfunction
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 11-Jan-2015
This is an update of a Cochrane review first published in The Cochrane Library in Issue 4, 2007 and previously updated in 2011. - Vibroacoustic stimulation for fetal assessment in labour in the presence of a nonreassuring fetal heart rate trace
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 calls for reducing social isolation and loneliness in older people: a rapid review
Cochrane Systematic Reviews,
The current COVID-19 pandemic has been identified as a possible trigger for increases in loneliness and social isolation among older people due to the restrictions on movement that many countries have put in place. Loneliness and social isolation are cons - 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 - Video games for people with schizophrenia
Cochrane Systematic Reviews,
Commercial video games are a vastly popular form of recreational activity. Whilst concerns persist regarding possible negative effects of video games, they have been suggested to provide cognitive benefits to users. They are also frequently employed as co - 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 add‐on therapy for drug‐resistant focal epilepsy
