Aims Accurately predicting risk of patient deterioration is vital. Altered physiology in chronic disease affects the prognostic ability of vital signs based early warning score systems. We aimed to assess the potential of early warning score patterns... Read More about Predicting outcome in acute respiratory admissions using patterns of National Early Warning Scores.

Impact of Coexisting Dementia on Inpatient Outcomes for Patients Admitted with a COPD Exacerbation (2022)
Journal Article
Gupta, A., McKeever, T. M., Hutchinson, J. P., & Bolton, C. E. (2022). Impact of Coexisting Dementia on Inpatient Outcomes for Patients Admitted with a COPD Exacerbation. International Journal of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, 2022(17), 535-544. https://doi.org/10.2147/copd.s345751

Purpose: People with COPD are at a higher risk of cognitive dysfunction than the general population. However, the additional impact of dementia amongst such patients is not well understood, particularly in those admitted with a COPD exacerbation. We...

Background Non-invasive pneumococcal pneumonia causes significant morbidity and mortality in older adults. Understanding pneumococcal sero-epidemiology in adults ≥50 years is necessary to inform vaccination policies and the updating of pneumococcal...
