Mashup Score: 1The Exacerbation, Not the Patient, Determines Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Exacerbation Care Seeking - 4 hour(s) ago
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) exacerbations are common. Most exacerbations are treated outside the hospital (1). Short courses of antibiotics (2) and oral corticosteroids (3) have been the mainstay of treatment for more than 30 years. Unfortunately, treatment failure is common, with around 30% of patients treated in primary care needing retreatment within a month (4) and up to 64% of patients treated in the hospital needing readmission within 12 months (5). Perhaps because of the frequency

Mashup Score: 2Flow of Change: Unmasking Variability in Respiratory Support for Pediatric Critical Asthma - 6 day(s) ago
Pediatric critical asthma, generally defined as an episode of acute severe asthma that requires critical care (1), is a common reason for admission to the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) (2). In addition to standard asthma therapies (e.g., oxygen, corticosteroids, bronchodilators), children with critical asthma are often treated with noninvasive respiratory support (NRS) (3). NRS includes use of a high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC), continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP), and noninvasive ventilation
