Schizophrenia is a psychiatric disorder which involves distortions in thought and perception, blunted affect, and behavioural disturbances. The longer psychosis goes unnoticed and untreated, the more severe the repercussions for relapse and recovery. Ther - Walk-in clinics versus physician offices and emergency rooms for urgent care and chronic disease management
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 17-Feb-2017
Walk-in clinics are growing in popularity around the world as a substitute for traditional medical care delivered in physician offices and emergency rooms, but their clinical efficacy is unclear. - Walking for hypertension
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 24-Feb-2021
Increased physical activity has been recommended as an important lifestyle modification for the prevention and control of hypertension. Walking is a low-cost form of physical activity and one which most people can do. Studies testing the effect of walking - Ward reduction without general anaesthesia versus reduction and repair under general anaesthesia for gastroschisis in newborn infants
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 16-Mar-2010
Gastroschisis is a congenital anterior abdominal wall defect with the abdominal contents protruding through the defect. Reduction of the abdominal contents is required within hours after birth as the infant is at risk not only of water and heat loss from - Warfarin initiation nomograms for venous thromboembolism
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 29-Jan-2016
Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a common condition in hospital patients. Considerable controversy is ongoing regarding optimal initial warfarin dosing for patients with acute deep venous thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE). Achieving a therapeuti - Warming of intravenous and irrigation fluids for preventing inadvertent perioperative hypothermia
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 8-Apr-2015
Inadvertent perioperative hypothermia (a drop in core temperature to below 36°C) occurs because of interference with normal temperature regulation by anaesthetic drugs, exposure of skin for prolonged periods and receipt of large volumes of intravenous and - Washed versus unwashed red blood cells for transfusion for the prevention of morbidity and mortality in preterm infants
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 20-Jan-2016
Infants born very preterm often receive multiple red blood cell (RBC) transfusions during their initial hospitalisation. However, there is an increasing awareness of potential adverse effects of RBC transfusions in this vulnerable patient population. Modi - Washout policies in long‐term indwelling urinary catheterisation in adults
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 6-Mar-2017
People requiring long-term bladder draining with an indwelling catheter can experience catheter blockage. Regimens involving different solutions can be used to wash out catheters with the aim of preventing blockage.
