The Clinical Significance of Fluctuations in the Minute-to-minute Urine Flow Rate and in its Minute-to-minute Variability During Septic Events in Critically Ill Patients. Open
We consider that minute-to-minute changes in UFR and UFRV could potentially serve as early and sensitive signals of clinical deterioration during new septic events in critically ill patients. We also suggest that these parameters might be …

Analysis of incidence of traumatic brain injury in blunt trauma patients with Glasgow Coma Scale of 12 or less Open
The utility of a GCS 12 and less is limited in prediction of brain injury in multiple trauma patients. Significant proportion of trauma victims with low GCS had no TBI and their impaired neurological status is related to severe extra-crani…
