Early identification and risk factors for sepsis-clinical and epidemiological studies
(Doctoral theses at NTNU;2018:161, Doctoral thesis, 2018)Denne avhandlingen fokuserer på risikofaktorer for sepsis; angst og depresjon, alder, kjønn, komorbiditet og livsstil, og vurderer ulike verktøy for tidlig identifisering av pasienter med sepsis. Sepsis rammer 30 millioner ... -
Early identification of sepsis in hospital inpatients by ward nurses increases 30-day survival
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)Background: Systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) and sepsis are now frequently identified by observations of vital signs and detection of organ failure during triage in the emergency room. However, there is less ... -
Early maximal strength training improves leg strength and postural stability in elderly following hip fracture surgery
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Introduction: Hip fractures predominantly occur in the geriatric population and results in increased physical inactivity and reduced independency, largely influenced by a downward spiral of ambulatory capacity, related to ... -
Early metabolite changes after melatonin treatment in neonatal rats with hypoxic-ischemic brain injury studied by in-vivo 1H MR spectroscopy
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Melatonin is a promising neuroprotective agent after perinatal hypoxic-ischemic (HI) brain injury. We used in-vivo 1H magnetic resonance spectroscopy to investigate effects of melatonin treatment on brain metabolism after ... -
Early reduced myocardial diastolic function in children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes mellitus a population-based study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016)Background Reduced diastolic myocardial function is an early sign of diabetic cardiomyopathy. The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1D), but without ... -
Early skin-to-skin contact or incubatorfor very preterm infants: study protocol for a randomized controlled trial
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)Background Skin-to-skin care immediately following delivery is a common practice for term infants and has been shown to improve cardiorespiratory stability, facilitate early bonding, and promote breastfeeding. Since ... -
Earlybird: A new approach to vascular assessment
(Doctoral theses at NTNU, 2022:81, Doctoral thesis, 2022)The aim of the thesis was to explore and identify possible clinical applications within vascular health for a novel, high-sensitivity, ultrasound Doppler system (earlybird). The unit was developed by Professor Hans Torp, ... -
Eccentric exercise 48 h prior to simulated diving has no effect on vascular bubble formation in rats
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)PURPOSE: Decompression sickness (DCS) caused by vascular bubble formation is a major risk when diving. Prior studies have shown that physical exercise has a significant impact in both reducing and increasing bubble formation. ... -
