PCRS and British Thoracic Society (BTS) have published a joint Position Statement on Integrated Care in Respiratory. The statement outlines goals and highlights practical steps as to what the delivery of high-quality, integrated services should look like.

#ATS2024 was a busy and highly insightful conference. With Prof Alexandre Demoule, we presented the results from our clinical evidence studies DE-RISK WF, demonstrating that continuous monitoring of the diaphragm with RESPINOR DXT during weaning from mechanical ventilation can identify patients at increased risk of extubation failure. Furthermore, diaphragm dysfunction identified by the RESPINOR DXT is indicative of prolonged ICU and hospital stay. The technology is easy to use and has a good safety profile. By identifying patients at increased risk of reintubation, DXT can contribute to reducing the number of reintubations and, thereby, the risk of severe complications, resulting in improved patient outcomes and a lower resource burden for healthcare professionals and payers. This is a significant step towards our ambition to become the next vital sign for assessing the work of breathing. We want to thank everyone we met at the conference for the great discussions, and we look forward to continuing with existing as well as starting new collaborations in the months to come. #Diaphragm #Monitoring #NonInvasiveMonitoring #ARDS #Respiratory #MechanicalVentilation

Decentralized Clinical Trials (DCTs) continue to surge post-pandemic, eliminating the need for frequent travel and offering participants greater flexibility and convenience. Our Director of Business Development, Shane Krauss, sheds light on how DCTs alleviate burdens on patients while ensuring their safety and comfort throughout the trial journey: https://lnkd.in/eWGqagMx Our RESP® Biosensor is a key tool for monitoring respiratory health in DCTs, capturing vital lung data remotely and noninvasively in daily life. #decentralizedclinicaltrials #DCTs #clinicaltrials #clinicalresearch

📢 Join the Symposium: Wound Balance - Shifting the Healing Trajectory 1st May at 4pm (GTM+1), ExCeL London, South Gallery 5-6 A panel of experts will examine the challenges of wound healing and discuss how wound balance can be used as a framework to help place the patient at the heart of wound healing. By supporting clinicians in recognising wounds likely to become non healing or chronic through early intervention and being able to identify what may be preventing a wound from progressing, including external factors and barriers to healing.

The EMF Effect: Groundbreaking research. In 2023, there were 281 fatal drownings in Australia and 90 in New Zealand. Estimated hospital in-patient admissions for drowning are in-excess of 1100 annually across the two countries with another 4000 drowning presentations to the Emergency Department (ED) either admitted to the Short Stay Unit or discharged home from the ED. Australia has a proud history of leading drowning prevention efforts globally. This is the first study examining the therapeutic benefit of oxygen in drowning patients. The aim of the study was to investigate the impact of on-scene, pre-Emergency Medical Services (EMS) oxygen therapy by lifeguards in the resuscitation of drowning victims. The use of lifeguard oxygen on drowning patients prior to the arrival of EMS does not appear to improve oxygenation. Understanding and rectifying the reasons for this is required in-order to improve outcomes. Mandatory use of pulse oximetry is recommended to guide oxygen therapy at the scene for all drowning patients. Researchers included Ogilvie Thom, Kym Roberts, Susan Devine, (the late) Peter Leggat and Richard Franklin. https://lnkd.in/gfx97JU7 #theEMFeffect #emergencymedicine #emergencymedicineresearch #savinglives #surflifesaving
