Triage is therefore a process whereby each patient is prioritized amongst the randomly approaching patients in the Accident & Emergency Department/rescue area for emergency care ( Zachariasse et al., 2021). Sorting of patients into priority categories is often performed by an experienced doctor/surgeon or a senior health professional/nurse. The triage nurse/health professional shall quickly assess the patient’s condition, interpret the clinical features and then exercise interventions in the early phase to prevent deterioration and death (Soler‐Sanchis, Martínez‐Arnau, Sánchez‐Frutos, & Pérez‐Ros, 2022). The objective of the triage is to defer a patient who can wait, while give priority to those who are in imminent danger, and whose life can be saved by a timely intervention (Costa, Nicolaidis, Gonçalves, Souza, & Blatt, 2020). The Manchester Triage System is used to maintain a consistent method of prioritising and assessing patients, allowing for thorough audits and improved patient safety. Emergency departments (EDs) are seeing more difficulties globally as a result of an increase in patients and an inability to adjust capacity to meet demand. This is against a background of decreasing hospital resources. Consequently, ED crowding has become a great, international phenomenon (Zachariasse et al., 2021). The Manchester Triage System is one of Europe's most widely used triage systems, considering five levels to prioritise patients in the ED: level 1 (red), immediate; level 2 (orange), very urgent; level 3 (yellow), urgent; level 4 (green), standard; and level 5 (blue), non-urgent (Brutschin, Kogej, Schacher, Berger, & Gräff, 2021) Patient flow model refers to the movement of patients through health care settings involves the medical care, physical resources, and internal systems needed to get patients from the point of admission to the point of discharge while maintaining quality and patient/provider satisfaction (Tlapa et al., 2020). The major facility for urgent medical difficulties is a hospital emergency department (ED), which is a complex system with erratic demands.","PeriodicalId":41726,"journal":{"name":"Cardiometry","volume":"26 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139293238","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Computed Tomography (CT) scans are commonly used diagnostic tools for detecting these pathologies. This study aims to associate the diagnostic exactness of MRI and CT scans in detecting skull base ENT pathologies. Aim: The primary objective of our current research is to assess and associate the diagnostic accuracy of MRI and CT scans in detecting skull base ENT pathologies, including tumors, infections, and congenital anomalies. Methods: Researchers led the retrospective study of medical records from the cohort of patients with suspected skull base ENT pathologies who underwent both MRI and CT scans. Imaging reports were reviewed by experienced radiologists blinded to the clinical outcomes. Diagnostic accuracy metrics, including sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), and negative predictive value (NPV), were calculated for each modality. McNemar's test was utilized to assess statistical significance of differences in diagnostic accuracy between MRI and CT. Results: An overall of 150 individuals were involved in our research. MRI demonstrated a sensitivity of 87%, specificity of 92%, PPV of 85%, and NPV of 93% in detecting skull base ENT pathologies. CT scans showed a sensitivity of 72%, specificity of 78%, PPV of 70%, and NPV of 80%. The diagnostic accuracy of MRI was significantly higher than that of CT for detecting these pathologies (p < 0.05). Subgroup analyses were performed for different types of pathologies, providing valuable insights into the strengths and limitations of each imaging modality. Conclusion: This comparative analysis highlights the superior diagnostic accuracy of MRI over CT scans in detecting skull base ENT pathologies. MRI offers higher sensitivity and specificity, making it a valuable tool for clinicians in the evaluation and management of individuals with these conditions. However, CT may still have a role in specific cases where MRI is contraindicated or for initial screening. Clinicians should consider these findings when selecting the most appropriate imaging modality for patients with suspected skull base ENT pathologies.","PeriodicalId":41726,"journal":{"name":"Cardiometry","volume":"141 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139297824","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Such pathologies include cancer, diseases of the endocrine system, of the respiratory system (chronic bronchitis, pneumoconiosis), gastric ulcer, pathology of the urinary system, exhaustion due to insufficient nutrition, smoking. Using genetically engineered biological drugs (GEBPs) in practice reduces the activity of inflammatory phenomena due to suppression of the immune response, but increases the risk of developing infectious diseases, primarily tuberculosis. Immunosuppressive therapy in organ transplant patients is also associated with the risk of developing tuberculosis. A special nature of immune disorders develops during HIV infection, a comorbid disease in patients with tuberculosis. The diseases listed above create a medical risk group in patients with immunocompromise, which is the basis for the development of tuberculosis. In addition to the risk of developing infection, patients with concomitant diseases have unfavorable results from treatment of tuberculosis, which does not allow achieving abacillation in a short time, thereby maintaining a reservoir of infection in society. In this regard, the purpose of our research was to study the clinical and epidemiological features of the detection and course of tuberculosis infection in patients with concomitant pathology A study was conducted using a continuous sampling method for the period from December 2020 to August 2021. 67 medical records of an inpatient at the state budgetary healthcare institution “Republican Clinical Anti-TB Dispensary” (Ufa) were analyzed. The groups were formed based on the detection of concomitant pathology (main, n=33) and its absence (control, n=34). To achieve the goal of the study, a comparative analysis of methods for detecting tuberculosis and clinical manifestations of tuberculosis was performed; prevalence of the process, detection of the fact of bacterial excretion and drug sensitivity from December 2020 to August 2021. 67 case histories of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MBT) in patients of the studied groups were analyzed. Statistical data processing was performed using licensed software Statistica 6.0 when calculating two types of data: discrete and interval. To assess the chances of detecting the studied factor in both groups, the indicator (OR) was used to calculate the 95% confidence interval (CI). Interval indicators were studied by t-test for independent samples, with Livigne's correction.","PeriodicalId":41726,"journal":{"name":"Cardiometry","volume":"8 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139295098","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
