  • Pattern of Admission and Outcome of Patients Admitted Into the Intensive Care Unit of University of Nigeria Teaching Hospital Enugu: a 5‑Year Review
    [Downloaded free from http://www.njcponline.com on Tuesday, September 08, 2015, IP: 197.88.83.90] Original Article Pattern of admission and outcome of patients admitted into the Intensive Care Unit of University of Nigeria Teaching Hospital Enugu: A 5‑year review FA Onyekwulu, SU Anya Department of Anaesthesia, University of Nigeria Teaching Hospital, Ituku Ozalla, Enugu State, Nigeria Abstract Objective: The objective was to determine the pattern of admission and outcome of patients in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) of University of Nigeria Teaching Hospital (UNTH), Enugu, Nigeria. Materials and Methods: A retrospective review of all patients admitted into the general ICU at UNTH from 2008 to 2012. Data were collected from the ICU admission and discharge registers, and data analysis was done using Microsoft Excel 2007. Results: A total of 766 patients were admitted during the period, consisting of 501 (65.4%) males and 265 (34.6%) females. Ages ranged from 1‑day to 89 years with a mean age of 38.2 ± 18.2 years. The most common cases admitted were neurosurgical patients of which there were 316 (41.2%). Patients admitted as a result of critical incidents in anesthesia formed the lowest number of cases admitted 10 (1.3%). Of the 316 neurosurgical cases, 224 (70.9%) were due to severe traumatic brain injury (TBI). An overall admission of 92.4% (207) was for severe TBI due to motor‑vehicular accident (MVA). The average length of stay was <24 h to 72 days with a mean of 4.9 ± 3.2 days. A total of 16.7% (128) patients received invasive mechanical ventilation during their stay in ICU.

PT Chui Design Retrospective study. Philip KN Lam Setting A university-affiliated tertiary referral hospital with 997 acute Desmond WL Lam adult beds in Hong Kong. YF Tong Patients Those who suffered a cardiopulmonary resuscitation event, as MC Chu documented in retrieved records of all in-patients during the PN Leung inclusive period January 2002 to December 2005. Gavin M Joynt Results There were 531 resuscitation events; the mean (standard deviation) age of the corresponding patients was 70.7 (15.4) years. Most (83%) occurred in non-monitored areas and most (97%) were cardiopulmonary arrests. The predominant initial rhythm was asystole (52%); only 8% of patients had ventricular tachycardia/fibrillation. All the resuscitations were initiated by on-site first responders. The median times from collapse to arrival of the resuscitation team, to defibrillation, to administration of adrenaline, and to intubation were: 5 (interquartile range, 2-6) minutes, 5 (1-7) minutes, 5 (3-10) minutes, and 9 (5-13) minutes, respectively. The overall hospital survival (discharge) rate was 5%. The survival rate was higher among patients in monitored areas (9 vs 4%, P=0.046), among patients with isolated respiratory arrests (61 vs 3%, P<0.001), primary ventricular tachycardia/fibrillation arrests (13 vs 4%, P<0.001), shorter interval times from collapse to medication (1.5 vs 5 min, P=0.013), and longer interval times to intubation (12 vs 8 min, P=0.013).
