The Critical-Care Pain Observation Tool: A useful tool for pain assessment in intensive care units
Pain is a major concern in all intensive care units (ICUs). The proper assessment and management of pain is one of the main goals of patient care in ICUs. Improper evaluation of pain and its over or under treatment can cause significant problems in the process of patient management in ICU. Since most ICU patients are unable to communicate correctly with the ICU team and explain their level of p...
متن کاملEvaluation of Pressure Pain Threshold as a Measure of Perceived Stress and High Job Strain
OBJECTIVE To investigate whether pressure pain threshold (PPT), determined by pressure algometry, can be used as an objective measure of perceived stress and job strain. METHODS We used cross-sectional base line data collected during 1994 to 1995 within the Project on Research and Intervention in Monotonous work (PRIM), which included 3123 employees from a variety of Danish companies. Questio...

purpose this preliminary study aimed to determine the intrarater reliability of the quantitative tests for the study of non-specific low back pain. methods test-retest reliability of the measurements of ratio data was determined by an intraclass correlation coefficient (icc), standard error of measurements (sems), coefficient of variation (cv), and one-way repeated measures anova using the valu...
متن کاملAnimal models: an important tool in mycology.
Animal models of fungal infections are, and will remain, a key tool in the advancement of the medical mycology. Many different types of animal models of fungal infection have been developed, with murine models the most frequently used, for studies of pathogenesis, virulence, immunology, diagnosis, and therapy. The ability to control numerous variables in performing the model allows us to mimic ...
