BACKGROUND: Severe bleeding is a leading cause of ICU admission and mortality. Fibrinogen plays a crucial role in prognosis, yet optimal thresholds and supplementation targets remain unclear.
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to develop a predictive model for secondary infections in patients with severe or critical COVID-19 by analyzing clinical characteristics and laboratory indicators.
Automatic pain assessment for non-communicative children is in high demand. However, the availability of related training datasets remains limited. This study focuses on creating a large-scale dataset of pain facial expressions specifically for Chine...
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Despite the pivotal role of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) in critical care research, many have failed to demonstrate significant benefits, particularly in nutrition interventions. This review highlights how patient heterogene...
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common condition in intensive care units (ICUs) and is associated with high mortality rates, particularly when kidney replacement therapy (KRT) becomes necessary. The optimal timing for initiating KRT remains a subject ...
BACKGROUND: Intradialytic hypotension (IDH) is associated with mortality in adults undergoing intermittent hemodialysis, but this relationship is unclear in critically ill children receiving continuous kidney replacement therapy (CKRT). We aim to eva...
Disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) is a thrombo-hemorrhagic disorder that can be life-threatening in critically ill children, and the quest for an accurate and efficient method for early DIC prediction is of paramount importance. Candidate ...
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Cardiovascular monitoring is essential for managing hemodynamic instability and preventing complications in critically ill patients. Conventional monitoring approaches are limited by predefined thresholds, dependence on clinician e...
