Objectives

Existing guideline recommendations suggest considering corticosteroids for adjunct treatment of cellulitis, but this is based on a single trial with low certainty of evidence. The objective was to determine if anti-inflammatory medication (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs [NSAIDs], corticosteroids) as adjunct cellulitis treatment improves clinical response and cure.

Methods

Systematic review and meta-analysis including randomized controlled trials of patients with cellulitis treated with antibiotics irrespective of age, gender, severity and setting, and an intervention of anti-inflammatories (NSAIDs or corticosteroids) vs. placebo or no intervention. Medline (PubMed), Embase (via Elsevier), and Cochrane CENTRAL were searched from inception to August 1, 2023. Data extraction was conducted independently in pairs. Risk of bias was assessed using the Cochrane Risk of Bias Tool 2. Data were pooled using a random effects model. Primary outcomes are time to clinical response and cure.

Results

Five studies (n = 331) were included, all were adults. Three trials reported time to clinical response. There was a benefit with use of an oral NSAID as adjunct therapy at day 3 (risk ratio 1.81, 95%CI 1.42–2.31, I2 = 0%). There was no difference between groups at day 5 (risk ratio 1.19, 95%CI 0.62–2.26), although heterogeneity was high (I2 = 96%). Clinical cure was reported by three trials, and there was no difference between groups at all timepoints up to 22 days. Statistical heterogeneity was moderate to low. Adverse events (N = 3 trials) were infrequent.

Conclusions

For patients with cellulitis, the best available data suggest that oral nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) as adjunct therapy to antibiotics may lead to improved early clinical response, although this is not sustained beyond 4 days. There is insufficient data to comment on the role of corticosteroids for clinical response. These results must be interpreted with caution due to the small number of included studies.

目的现有指南建议考虑将皮质类固醇用于蜂窝组织炎的辅助治疗,但这只是基于一项证据确定性较低的试验。方法系统综述和荟萃分析,包括对接受抗生素治疗的蜂窝组织炎患者进行的随机对照试验,不考虑年龄、性别、严重程度和环境,以及抗炎药物(非甾体抗炎药或皮质类固醇)干预与安慰剂或无干预的对比。对 Medline (PubMed)、Embase (通过 Elsevier) 和 Cochrane CENTRAL 进行了检索,检索时间从开始到 2023 年 8 月 1 日。数据提取由两人独立完成。使用 Cochrane 偏倚风险工具 2 评估偏倚风险。采用随机效应模型对数据进行汇总。主要结果为临床反应时间和治愈时间。结果纳入了五项研究(n = 331),均为成人研究。三项试验报告了临床反应时间。在第 3 天使用口服非甾体抗炎药作为辅助治疗有一定的获益(风险比 1.81,95%CI 1.42-2.31,I2 = 0%)。第 5 天时,各组间无差异(风险比 1.19,95%CI 0.62-2.26),但异质性很高(I2 = 96%)。有三项试验报告了临床治愈情况,在 22 天内的所有时间点,各组间均无差异。统计异质性为中低。结论对于蜂窝组织炎患者,现有的最佳数据表明,口服非甾体抗炎药(NSAIDs)作为抗生素的辅助疗法可能会改善早期临床反应,尽管这种反应不会持续到4天以后。关于皮质类固醇对临床反应的作用,目前还没有足够的数据可供评论。由于纳入的研究较少,因此必须谨慎解释这些结果。注册开放科学框架:https://osf.io/vkxae?view_only=fb4f8ca438a048cb9ca83c5f47fd4d81。

Purpose

We evaluated impact on length of stay and possible complications of replacing the Clinical Institute Withdrawal Assessment—Alcohol Revised (CIWA-Ar) scale with a slightly modified Richmond Agitation and Sedation Scale (mRASS-AW) to support managing patients admitted with alcohol withdrawal symptoms in a community hospital. Since mRASS-AW is viewed as easier and quicker to use than CIWA-Ar, provided use of mRASS-AW does not worsen outcomes, it could be a safe alternative in a busy ED environment and offer an opportunity to release nursing time to care.

Methods

Retrospective time-series analysis of mean quarterly length of stay. All analyses exclusively used our hospital’s administrative discharge diagnoses database. During April 1st 2012 to December 14th 2014, the CIWA-Ar was used in the ED and in-patient units to guide benzodiazepine dosing decisions for alcohol withdrawal symptoms. After this point, CIWA-Ar was replaced with mRASS-AW. Data was evaluated until December 31st 2020. Primary outcome: mean quarterly length of stay. Secondary outcomes: delirium, intensive care unit (ICU) admission, other post-admission complications, mortality.

Results

N = 1073 patients. No association between length of stay and scale switch (slope change 0.3 (95% CI − 0.03 to 0.6), intercept change, 0.06 (− 0.03 to 0.2). CIWA-Ar (n = 317) mean quarterly length of stay, 5.7 days (95% 4.2–7.1), mRASS-AW (n = 756) 5.0 days (95% CI 4.3–5.6). Incidence of delirium, ICU admission or mortality was not different. However, incidence of other post-admission complications was higher with CIWA-Ar (6.6%) than mRASS-AW (3.4%) (p = 0.020).

Conclusions

This was the first study to compare patient outcomes associated with using mRASS-AW for alcohol withdrawal symptoms outside the ICU. Replacing CIWA-Ar with mRASS-AW did not worsen length of stay or complications. These findings provide some evidence that mRASS-AW could be considered an alternative to CIWA-Ar and potentially may provide an opportunity to release nursing time to care.

目的我们评估了用略微改良的里士满躁动与镇静量表(mRASS-AW)取代临床研究所酒精戒断评估修订版(CIWA-Ar)量表对住院时间和可能出现的并发症的影响,以帮助管理社区医院收治的有酒精戒断症状的患者。由于 mRASS-AW 被认为比 CIWA-Ar 更简便、更快捷,如果使用 mRASS-AW 不会使结果恶化,那么在繁忙的急诊室环境中,它可能是一种安全的替代方法,并为护理人员腾出时间进行护理提供了机会。所有分析均使用本医院的行政出院诊断数据库。在 2012 年 4 月 1 日至 2014 年 12 月 14 日期间,急诊室和住院部使用 CIWA-Ar 为戒酒症状的苯二氮卓用药决策提供指导。此后,CIWA-Ar 被 mRASS-AW 取代。数据评估截至 2020 年 12 月 31 日。主要结果:平均季度住院时间。次要结果:谵妄、入住重症监护室(ICU)、入院后其他并发症、死亡率。住院时间与量表切换之间无关联(斜率变化为 0.3(95% CI - 0.03 至 0.6),截距变化为 0.06(- 0.03 至 0.2)。CIWA-Ar(n = 317)平均季度住院时间为 5.7 天(95% 4.2-7.1),mRASS-AW(n = 756)为 5.0 天(95% CI 4.3-5.6)。谵妄、入住重症监护室或死亡的发生率没有差异。结论这是第一项比较在 ICU 外使用 mRASS-AW 治疗酒精戒断症状的患者预后的研究。用 mRASS-AW 取代 CIWA-Ar 并不会延长住院时间或增加并发症。这些研究结果提供了一些证据,表明 mRASS-AW 可被视为 CIWA-Ar 的替代品,并有可能为护理人员腾出护理时间。

Introduction

Indigenous health equity interventions situated within emergency care settings remain underexplored, despite their potential to influence patient care satisfaction and empowerment. This study aimed to systematically review and identify Indigenous equity interventions and their outcomes within acute care settings, which can potentially be utilized to improve equity within Canadian healthcare for Indigenous patients.

Methods

A database search was completed of Medline, PubMed, Embase, Google Scholar, Scopus and CINAHL from inception to April 2023. For inclusion in the review, articles were interventional and encompassed program descriptions, evaluations, or theoretical frameworks within acute care settings for Indigenous patients. We evaluated the methodological quality using both the Joanna Briggs Institute checklist and the Ways Tried and True framework.

Results

Our literature search generated 122 publications. 11 articles were selected for full-text review, with five included in the final analysis. Two focusing on Canadian First Nations populations and three on Aboriginal Australians. The main intervention strategies included cultural safety training, integration of Indigenous knowledge into care models, optimizing waiting-room environments, and emphasizing sustainable evaluation methodologies. The quality of the interventions was varied, with the most promising studies including Indigenous perspectives and partnerships with local Indigenous organizations.

Conclusions

Acute care settings, serving as the primary point of access to health care for many Indigenous populations, are well-positioned to implement health equity interventions such as cultural safety training, Indigenous knowledge integration, and optimization of waiting room environments, combined with sustainable evaluation methods. Participatory discussions with Indigenous communities are needed to advance this area of research and determine which interventions are relevant and appropriate for their local context.

导言土著人在急诊护理环境中的健康公平干预措施尽管有可能影响患者的护理满意度并增强其能力,但仍未得到充分探索。本研究旨在系统地回顾和识别急诊护理环境中的土著公平干预措施及其成果,这些措施有可能用于改善加拿大土著患者的医疗保健公平性。纳入综述的文章均为干预性文章,内容包括针对原住民患者的急症护理项目描述、评估或理论框架。我们使用乔安娜-布里格斯研究所(Joanna Briggs Institute)的核对表和 "屡试不爽"(Ways Tried and True)框架对研究方法的质量进行了评估。我们选择了 11 篇文章进行全文审阅,其中 5 篇被纳入最终分析。其中两篇侧重于加拿大原住民,三篇侧重于澳大利亚原住民。主要干预策略包括文化安全培训、将土著知识融入护理模式、优化候诊室环境以及强调可持续评估方法。干预措施的质量参差不齐,最有前途的研究包括土著观点以及与当地土著组织的合作。结论作为许多土著居民获得医疗保健服务的主要途径,医疗机构完全有能力实施健康公平干预措施,如文化安全培训、土著知识整合、优化候诊室环境,并结合可持续的评估方法。需要与土著社区进行参与式讨论,以推进这一领域的研究,并确定哪些干预措施与当地情况相关且适合当地情况。

Objectives

This study’s aims were to describe the outcomes of patients with diabetes presenting with their first ED visit for hyperglycemia, and to identify predictors of recurrent ED visits for hyperglycemia.

Methods

Using linked databases, we conducted a population-based cohort study of adult and pediatric patients with types 1 and 2 diabetes presenting with a first ED visit for hyperglycemia from April 2010 to March 2020 in Ontario, Canada. We determined the proportion of patients with a recurrent ED visit for hyperglycemia within 30 days of the index visit. Using multivariable regression analysis, we examined clinical and socioeconomic predictors for recurrent visits.

Results

There were 779,632 patients with a first ED visit for hyperglycemia. Mean (SD) age was 64.3 (15.2) years; 47.7% were female. 11.0% had a recurrent visit for hyperglycemia within 30 days. Statistically significant predictors of a recurrent visit included: male sex, type 1 diabetes, regions with fewer visible minority groups and with less education or employment, higher hemoglobin A1C, more family physician or internist visits within the past year, being rostered to a family physician, previous ED visits in the past year, ED or hospitalization within the previous 14 days, access to homecare services, and previous hyperglycemia encounters in the past 5 years. Alcoholism and depression or anxiety were positive predictors for the 18–65 age group.

Conclusions

This population-level study identifies predictors of recurrent ED visits for hyperglycemia, including male sex, type 1 diabetes, regions with fewer visible minority groups and with less education or employment, higher hemoglobin A1C, higher previous healthcare system utilization (ED visits and hospitalization) for hyperglycemia, being rostered to a family physician, and access to homecare services. Knowledge of these predictors may be used to develop targeted interventions to improve patient outcomes and reduce healthcare system costs.

本研究旨在描述首次因高血糖而到急诊就诊的糖尿病患者的治疗效果,并确定因高血糖而再次到急诊就诊的预测因素。方法利用链接数据库,我们对加拿大安大略省 2010 年 4 月至 2020 年 3 月期间首次因高血糖而到急诊就诊的 1 型和 2 型糖尿病成人和儿童患者进行了一项基于人群的队列研究。我们确定了因高血糖在首次就诊后 30 天内再次因高血糖就诊的患者比例。通过多变量回归分析,我们研究了复诊的临床和社会经济预测因素。结果共有 779,632 名患者因高血糖首次就诊于急诊室。平均(标清)年龄为 64.3 (15.2) 岁;47.7% 为女性。11.0%的患者在 30 天内再次因高血糖就诊。具有统计学意义的反复就诊预测因素包括:男性、1 型糖尿病、少数族裔群体较少的地区、教育或就业水平较低、血红蛋白 A1C 较高、过去一年中家庭医生或内科医生就诊次数较多、被列入家庭医生名册、过去一年中曾就诊于急诊室、过去 14 天内曾就诊于急诊室或住院治疗、获得家庭护理服务以及过去 5 年中曾遇到过高血糖。结论这项人群水平的研究确定了因高血糖而反复去急诊室就诊的预测因素,包括男性、1 型糖尿病患者、少数族裔明显较少的地区、受教育或就业较少的地区、血红蛋白 A1C 较高、以前因高血糖而利用医疗系统(急诊室就诊和住院)的次数较多、家庭医生名册上的患者以及获得家庭护理服务的机会。了解这些预测因素可用于制定有针对性的干预措施,以改善患者预后并降低医疗系统成本。
