Hip fracture outcomes in patients with COPD (2018)
Journal Article
Buss, L., McKeever, T. M., Nightingale, J., Akyea, R., Ollivere, B., Moppett, I., & Bolton, C. E. (2018). Hip fracture outcomes in patients with COPD. British Journal of Anaesthesia, 121(6), 1377-1379. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.bja.2018.09.008+hideArticle+Info

Hip fractures are common in patients with COPD and contemporary outcome data is needed. Patients admitted with a hip fracture to one acute trust (2010-2015) were assessed prospectively (UK National Hip Fracture Database audit) and mortality data col...

Femoral Nerve Block Intervention in Neck of Femur Fracture (FINOF): a randomized controlled trial (2018)
Journal Article
Rowlands, M., Walt, G. V. D., Bradley, J., Mannings, A., Armstrong, S., Bedforth, N. M., …Sahota, O. (2018). Femoral Nerve Block Intervention in Neck of Femur Fracture (FINOF): a randomized controlled trial. BMJ Open, 8(4), Article e019650. https://doi.org/10.1136/bmjopen-2017-019650

Objective Fractured neck of femur is a severely painful condition with significant mortality and morbidity. We investigated whether early and continuous use of femoral nerve block can improve pain on movement and mobility after surgery in older p...

Anaesthesia workload measurement devices: qualitative systematic review (2018)
Journal Article
Almghairbi, D. S., Marufu, T. C., & Moppett, I. K. (2018). Anaesthesia workload measurement devices: qualitative systematic review. BMJ Simulation & Technology Enhanced Learning, 4(3), 112-116. https://doi.org/10.1136/bmjstel-2017-000263

Background: Management of mental workload is a key aspect of safety in anaesthesia but there is no gold standard tool to assess mental workload, risking confusion in clinical and research use of such tools. Objective: This review assessed currentl... Read More about Anaesthesia workload measurement devices: qualitative systematic review.

Predicting 30-day mortality in patients with sepsis: an exploratory analysis of process of care and patient characteristics (2018)
Journal Article
Sanderson, M., Chikhani, M., Blyth, E., Wood, S., Moppett, I. K., McKeever, T., & Simmonds, M. J. (2018). Predicting 30-day mortality in patients with sepsis: an exploratory analysis of process of care and patient characteristics. Journal of the Intensive Care Society, 19(4), 299-304. https://doi.org/10.1177/1751143718758975

Background Sepsis represents a significant public health burden, costing the NHS £2.5 billion annually, with 35% mortality in 2006. The aim of this exploratory study was to investigate risk factors predictive of 30-day mortality amongst patients w...

An observational feasibility study of a new anaesthesia drug storage tray (2018)
Journal Article
Almghairbi, D. S., Sharp, L., Griffiths, R., Evley, R., Gupta, S., & Moppett, I. K. (2018). An observational feasibility study of a new anaesthesia drug storage tray. Anaesthesia, 73(3), 356-364. https://doi.org/10.1111/anae.14187

Drug errors in the anaesthetic domain remains a serious cause of iatrogenic harm. To help reduce this issue, we aimed to explore the potential impact of a simple colour-coded tray to drug preparation and storage on safe drug administration during ana...
