ResumenEl Diseño es un conjunto de saberes y prácticas para el coherente desarrollo humano integral en sus diferentes representaciones. Es una herramienta para la interrelación de los saberes, la sustentabilidad y sostenibilidad, la prospectiva, el desarrollo social, la identidad cultural y el crecimiento económico; lo cual se evidencia en los entornos y contextos de aquellos países que acertadamente lo han agregado como eje estratégico en sus políticas de Estado. Colombia aún está en mora de ello y a partir de esta investigación se definen los lineamientos para desarrollarunalínea de investigaciónen DiseñoSostenible para la innovación y el emprendimiento, base para implementar políticasque reviertanla problemática del bajo índice de innovación dada la escasa incidencia del diseño como factor de desarrollo en el país.AbstractDesign is a set of knowledge and practices for the coherent integral humandevelopment in its different representations. It is a tool for the interrelationship of knowledge and sustainability, foresight, social development, cultural identity and economic growth. It is evident in the environments and contexts of those countries that have aptly added it as a strategic axis in their State policies. Colombia is still in arrears of it and from this research the guidelines for developing a line of research in Sustainable Design for innovation and entrepreneurship are defined,base to implement policies that revert the problematic of the low index of innovation given the scarce incidence of the design as a factor of development in the country.

A SAÚDE COMO PRETEXTO PARA QUEM QUER SER DESEJADO SEXUALMENTE: um estudo etnográfico em perspectiva midiática
Authors: Bertolini Jeferson
Published: January 2020

Este artigo apresenta resultados de estudo sobre a relação entre saúde, tema em voga na TV brasileira, e sexo. Por meio de observação participante com clientes de supermercado e alunos de academia de ginástica de Santa Catarina, descobriu-se que a saúde pode ser pretexto para quem, no fundo, quer ser desejado/a sexualmente; apurou-se ainda que a vontade de ser desejado/a sexualmente é mantida em segredo porque o sexo ainda é influenciado por tabus. O manuscrito conclui (a) que diante do atual boom midiático sobre saúde e bem-estar, a saúde pode ser pretexto para quem, no fundo, quer ser desejado sexualmente; e (b) o cuidado sem precedentes com o corpo estimulado pela mídia torna os cidadãos alvos do biopoder.

ABSTRACT

This article presents study results on the relationship between health, theme in vogue in Brazilian TV, and sex. Through participant observation with supermarket clients and students of the gymnastics academy of Santa Catarina, it was discovered that health can be a pretext for those who, deep down, want to be sexually desired; it was also found that the desire to be sexually desired is kept secret because sex is still influenced by taboos. The manuscript concludes (a) that in the face of the current media boom on health and well-being, health may be a pretext for those who, at bottom, want to be sexually desired; and (b) unprecedented care with the body stimulated by the media makes citizens the targets of biopower.

CARRY FIRE: um estudo de recepção das críticas musicais ao disco de Robert Plant
Authors: Cruz Fábio , Simões Pires Arthur Freire
Published: January 2020

Neste artigo, realizamos um estudo voltado à compreensão de como receptores, que cursaram uma disciplina universitária, que une comunicação com o gênero musical rock, compreendem as críticas musicais, entendidas como um subgênero do jornalismo cultural (PIZA, 2013). Sob preceitos de Kellner (2001) e Orozco Gómez (2000), analisamos o debate com o grupo focal acerca de dois textos produzidos pelos veículos The Guardian (Inglaterra) e Omelete (Brasil). Entendemos que os textos reforçam estereótipos, fator este que corrobora um posicionamento contrário por parte dos receptores em relação ao conteúdo dos textos selecionados.

A EDUCAÇÃO DE IDOSOS NA VEJA E NA FOLHA DE SÃO PAULO: dados para uma análise crítica
Authors: Rodrigues Patrícia Mattos Amato , Mafra Simone Caldas Tavares , Pereira Eveline Torres
Published: January 2020

As temáticas do envelhecimento e da educação se apresentam de forma rotineira nos textos jornalísticos. A partir desta constatação, esta pesquisa teve como objetivo investigar a educação de idosos enquanto notícia na revista Veja e no jornal Folha de São Paulo, pois se acredita no poder desses veículos de mídia na construção dos valores e necessidades da sociedade brasileira. Trata-se de pesquisa descritiva, tendo a coleta dos dados suporte bibliográfico e documental. Os resultados apontaram para uma escassez de matérias e o silêncio dos periódicos de maior circulação no país acerca do crescimento da demanda de educação formal e informal pelos idosos brasileiros, o que sinaliza a manutenção de rótulos e a resistência ou indiferença à necessidade política, econômica e social de se ressignificar a velhice.

Authors: Lima Quelen Colman Espíndola , Pazinato Maurícius Selvero
Published: January 2020

The objective of this study was to identify the students' perception regarding the factors related to academic retention in two licensee courses in Nature Sciences. The subjects were academics who had already failed or blocked their enrollments in at least one component. The data collection was done through a questionnaire with questions and affirmations which were evaluated through a five-level agreement scale. From the obtained data were made descriptive analyzes, which were discussed from the Model for Study of Factors Associated with the Retention Process described in the area literature. The results indicate that the factors: secondary education, lack of student support programs, and the need to work while attending the course influence in academic retention in the context investigated. Given this, it is possible to list some actions that can minimize the high rate of retention in these courses.
Social Media & Organizational Management of Contemporary Socio-Cultural Movement: An Instrumental Case Study of Akademi Berbagi in Indonesia
Authors: Fitrah Andi Awaluddin , Wahyuni Hermin Indah , Putra I Gusti Ngurah
Published: January 2020

The rise of the internet and social media has promoted the evolution of a new form of social movement in Indonesia, one that has predominantly promoted socio-cultural, rather than political change. However, many of these movements have continued to face the classic challenges of social movements, particularly consistency and sustainability. As such, a number of movements have dissolved as they have been unable to accumulate and allocate their resources. This article has taken on internet-based social movement, Akademi Berbagi (Akber), for an instrumental case study. Akber is a movement that has emerged and been active almost wholly through Twitter, with its main goal being to promote sociocultural change at the individual level, particularly in the field of education. This article seeks to analyse the organizational management of Akber, referring specifically to its organizational efforts and strategies to accumulate and allocate its resources. Data were collected through interviews and online/offline observations, as well as investigation of the digital documents from the official social media accounts of Akber and its members. This research finds that the optimal management of socio-cultural movements such as Akber relies on several factors, including the use of various internet platforms, the loose federal organizational structure, the movement’s ability to avoid the trap of pseudo-support, and the ability to respond to external changes.
Микроскопические грибы бассейна Чёрного моря: направления и перспективы исследований
Authors: Копытина Н. И.
Published: January 2020

Проанализирован 71 литературный источник, посвящённый изучению микроскопических грибов (микромицетов) Чёрного моря, за период с 1867 по 2018 г. В 1860-е и 1930-е гг. зафиксированы эпидемии морской травы Zostera marina, вызванные грибоподобными организмами рода Labyrinthula. В конце XIX — начале XX века также выявлено несколько случаев локального микоза морской травы. В 1960–2000-е гг. зарегистрированы эпизоотии беспозвоночных животных, вызванные грибами: Hyphochytrium peniliae поражал ветвистоусого рачка Penilia avirostris и вызывал его массовую гибель; гриб Leptolegnia pontica паразитировал на яйцах усоногого рачка Balanus improvisus и существенно сократил плодовитость популяции; вселение Ostracoblabe implexa привело к уничтожению популяций устрицы Ostrea edulis. В настоящее время отмечены единичные случаи поражения грибом O. edulis культивируемой устрицы Crassostrea gigas, спат которой привозят из других стран. На створках C. gigas и Mytilus galloprovincialis выделены грибы-эпибионты. В зрелых ооцитах M. galloprovincialis найдена микроспоридия Steinhausia mytilovum. На рыбах и в их внутренних органах обнаружены гифальные грибы и внутриклеточные паразиты — микроспоридии. На покровах бутылконосых дельфинов выявлены грибы. Проведены работы по изучению микобиоты пелагиали, бентали, целлюлозосодержащих субстратов, пены, перифитона, микро- и макроводорослей, морских трав. В настоящее время в бассейне Чёрного моря известно 435 видов грибов из 212 родов, 84 семейств, 50 порядков, 19 классов, 3 царств. В морской среде зафиксировано 372 вида, в пресной — 196, в гиперсолёных водоёмах — 31. В водной толще обнаружено 230 видов микромицетов (в сероводородной зоне — 21); в донных отложениях — 202 (в сероводородной зоне — 31); на древесине — 70; в перифитоне на стёклах и искусственной каменистой супралиторали (причалы, траверсы) — 30; в морской пене — 46; на/в моллюсках — 50; на коже дельфинов — 18; на макроводорослях — 116; на микроводорослях — 2; на морских травах — 38; на/в рыбах — 69; на/в ракообразных — 14. Количество видов, обнаруженных в прибрежных водах разных районов, составило: Грузии — 8 видов; г. Геленджика (Россия) — 56; полуострова Крым — 276; северо-западной части Чёрного моря — 177; Румынии — 112; Болгарии — 44; Турции — 9; р. Дунай — 238; о-ва Змеиный — 30. В настоящем обзоре рассмотрены работы по оценке способности грибов утилизировать целлюлозу, нефть, нефтепродукты, фенол, серу и вызывать коррозию металлов; проанализированы первые результаты исследований антимикробной активности факультативно и облигатно морских грибов Чёрного моря, а также способности микромицетов к люминесценции. Определены перспективные направления морских микологических исследований.
Влияние меди на численность, морфологию клеток и содержание фотосинтетических пигментов микроводоросли Porphyridium purpureum
Authors: Маркина Ж. В. , Айздайчер А. Н.
Published: January 2020

Изучили возможности адаптации красной водоросли Porphyridium purpureum к интоксикации медью. В качестве показателей использовали динамику численности клеток, морфологию клеток, содержание хлорофилла a и каротиноидов. Эксперимент проводили в два этапа. На первом исследовали действие меди в концентрациях 50 и 100 мкг·л−1; на втором оценивали адаптивные способности водоросли к росту в загрязнённой Cu2+ среде. Установлено, что на первом этапе присутствие меди в среде в концентрации 50 мкг·л−1 существенно не сказывалось на исследуемых показателях. Внесение 100 мкг·л−1 вызывало угнетение роста и снижение содержания фотосинтетических пигментов. Показано, что на втором этапе после пересева из среды, содержащей 50 мкг·л−1, в среду с такой же концентрацией количество клеток и содержание фотосинтетических пигментов достоверно не отличались от контрольных. Часть клеток деформировалась, хлоропласты были тёмными. При пересеве из среды, содержащей 50 мкг·л−1, в среду со 100 мкг·л−1 зафиксировано отставание в росте в два раза; в суспензии обнаружено большое количество клеток с тёмным зернистым хлоропластом. Перенос клеток из среды со 100 мкг·л−1 в среду с такой же концентрацией вызывал подавление роста и уменьшение содержания фотосинтетических пигментов. В суспензии обнаружены клетки с диаметром, превышающим контрольный; отмечено большое количество слизи. Установлено, что полноценной адаптации P. purpureum к содержанию меди в среде не происходило.

Characterization and Dynamic Analysis of the Devils Castle Rock Avalanche, Alta, Utah
Authors: Pedersen Patricia , Moore Jeffrey R. , Quirk Brendon J. , Giraud Richard E. , Mcdonald Greg N.
Published: January 2020

Rock avalanches are large-magnitude mass movements with high mobility and fluid-like runout; however, because of their scarcity, little information is typically available to describe the hazard posed by these events. Geologic records thus provide key data regarding rock avalanche size, timing, and dynamics. Here we present a detailed case history analysis of the Devils Castle rock avalanche located near the town of Alta in the Wasatch Mountains of Utah. The deposit is ∼1.5 km in length with a Fahrboeschung angle of 14 degrees (height-to-length ratio = 0.25). Through topographic reconstruction, we calculated a deposit volume of 1.7 million m3 with a maximum thickness of 25 m and an average thickness of 7 m. Cosmogenic surface exposure dating of six deposit boulders indicates a failure age of 14.4 ± 1.0 ka. The Devils Castle headwall displays no obvious evidence indicating precise source location and geometry; therefore, we reconstructed two plausible source volumes and performed numerical runout simulations for each. Results agree well with mapped deposit boundaries for both source scenarios; however, the east source model better represents material and dynamic characteristics of the deposit observed in the field. While the region is seismically active, the Late Pleistocene age for the rock avalanche precludes ascribing direct correlation with any currently known surface-rupturing paleoearthquakes. We identified and describe five similar events in the region highlighting the extent of the potential hazard. Individual case history analyses such as this allow us to better understand the processes and controls of large-scale mass movements in the region.

Background
UK and global policies recommend whole-school approaches to improve childrens’ inadequate physical activity (PA) levels. Yet, recent meta-analyses establish current interventions as ineffective due to suboptimal implementation rates and poor sustainability. To create effective interventions, which recognise schools as complex adaptive sub-systems, multi-stakeholder input is necessary. Further, to ensure ‘systems’ change, a framework is required that identifies all components of a whole-school PA approach. The study’s aim was to co-develop a whole-school PA framework using the double diamond design approach (DDDA).

Methodology
Fifty stakeholders engaged in a six-phase DDDA workshop undertaking tasks within same stakeholder (n=9; UK researchers, public health specialists, active schools coordinators, headteachers, teachers, active partner schools specialists, national organisations, Sport England local delivery pilot representatives and international researchers) and mixed (n=6) stakeholder groupings. Six draft frameworks were created before stakeholders voted for one ‘initial’ framework. Next, stakeholders reviewed the ‘initial’ framework, proposing modifications. Following the workshop, stakeholders voted on eight modifications using an online questionnaire.

Results
Following voting, the Creating Active Schools Framework (CAS) was designed. At the centre, ethos and practice drive school policy and vision, creating the physical and social environments in which five key stakeholder groups operate to deliver PA through seven opportunities both within and beyond school. At the top of the model, initial and in-service teacher training foster teachers’ capability, opportunity and motivation (COM-B) to deliver whole-school PA. National policy and organisations drive top-down initiatives that support or hinder whole-school PA.

Summary
To the authors’ knowledge, this is the first time practitioners, policymakers and researchers have co-designed a whole-school PA framework from initial conception. The novelty of CAS resides in identifying the multitude of interconnecting components of a whole-school adaptive sub-system; exposing the complexity required to create systems change. The framework can be used to shape future policy, research and practice to embed sustainable PA interventions within schools. To enact such change, CAS presents a potential paradigm shift, providing a map and method to guide future co-production by multiple experts of PA initiatives ‘with’ schools, while abandoning outdated traditional approaches of implementing interventions ‘on’ schools.

Authors: Quitadamo Pasqua aNNA , Palumbo Giuseppina , Cianti Liliana , Lurdo Paola , Sorrentino Leonilde , Gentile Maria Assunta , Cristalli Pierpaolo
Published: January 2020

INTRODUCTION In feeding premature babies, the first choice is the fresh milk from mother and if this is not possible, the donated milk from the HMBs. The support to the donation of the human milk have proved to be an efficient method of promotion to the breastfeeding. OBJECT The aim is to know the motivations and the experience of the donation to draw lessons for the improvement of our activity about the promotion of breastfeeding and the donation of the milk. MATERIAL AND METHODS 70 donors have been recruited. The questionnaire includes 15 questions which relate to the breastfeeding and donation. It focuses on data concerning the possible factors which favor the breastfeeding linked to the donation and to the subjective description of the donation’s experience and of personal suggestions. RESULTS 67,7% of the interviewed women was made aware of the possibility to donate by the direct information from the HMB staff; for the 83,3% of donors there is an altruistic reason at the base of the donation. For the 24,14% it was the second or third experience. The length of the breastfeeding together with the donation exceeds about 2 months the time occurred for the other sons without donation. For 61,76% it was not demanding to donate the milk and for 75,86% the donation is considered a factor which favors the breastfeeding. Some donation’s experiences were very intense and captivating. CONCLUSIONS The conclusions were categorized into: input received, data sharing and key messages from which operational proposals arose.
Antofloxacin, a novel fluoroquinolone, as a component of bismuth quadruple therapy for Helicobacter pylori eradication: a prospective, open-label, randomized trial
Authors: Xiaojian He , Wen Wang , Dazhou Li , Gang Liu , Chuanshen Jiang
Published: January 2020

Background Currently, the eradication rate of Helicobacter pylori ( H. pylori ) is markedly decreasing due to some antibiotics resistance, including clarithromycin, metronidazole, and levofloxacin. So, there is a considerable interest in evaluating new antibiotic combinations and regimens. Antofloxacin is a novel fluoroquinolone with broad-spectrum antibacterial activity against Gram-negative bacilli including H. pylori . This study is designed to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of 14-day antofloxacin-based bismuth quadruple therapy as a treatment regimen in Chinese patients with H. pylori infection. Methods We recruited 290 adult patients with H. pylori infection through upper endoscopy and histologic examination. Patients were randomly assigned to receive either antofloxacin-based bismuth quadruple therapy (ACLA therapy, antofloxacin 200 mg once daily, colloidal bismuth pectin 200 mg three times a day, lansoprazole 30 mg twice daily, and amoxicillin 1 g twice daily) for 14 days; or levofloxacin-based bismuth quadruple therapy (LCLA therapy, levofloxacin 500 mg once daily, colloidal bismuth pectin 200 mg three times a day, lansoprazole 30 mg twice daily, and amoxicillin 1 g twice daily) for 14 days. Eradication was assessed by 13 C-urea breath test after six-week treatment, the primary endpoint was the eradication rate by intention-to-treat (ITT) and per-protocol (PP) analyses. Results Allocated to ACLA were 145 (66F/70M, 42.1±12.8 years, 19.3% smokers, 13.1% alcohol drinker) and 145 (64F/81M, 41.1±12.2 years, 17.9% smokers, 12.4% alcohol drinker) patients to LCLA. 13 patients were lost to follow-up and 3 patients took < 80% of treatment drugs. The resistant rates for amoxicillin, levofloxacin and antofloxaci were 4.1% (12/290), 30.3% (44/145) and 0% (0/145), respectively. The ITT analysis showed eradication rates were 93.8% (136/145) in the ACLA group versus 86.2% (125/145) in the LCLA group ( p =0.031). The PP analysis showed eradication rates were 97.8% (136/139) in the ACLA group versus 92.6% (125/135) in the LCLA group ( p =0.000). The ACLA therapy exhibited lower rates of overall adverse events than LCLA therapy (33.8% vs. 42.0%), but the difference was not statistically significant ( p =0. 159). Conclusion Antofloxacin-based bismuth quadruple therapy might be considered as an alternative for the eradication of H. pylori treatment, since it attained a successful eradication rate of 90% which was superior than levofloxacin-based bismuth quadruple therapy. Both regimens were well tolerated and safe.

Background: Urinary catheterization frequently leads to catheter-related bladder discomfort (CRBD) in male patients after general anesthesia. This prospective cohort trial aimed to prove the efficacy of unilateral ilioinguinal transversus abdominis plane block (TAPB) in attenuating CRBD in male patients. Methods: Male patients with a severe CRBD were randomized to receive unilateral ilioinguinal TAPB with 0.375% ropivacaine 10mL (group T) or intravenous sufentanil 0.15μg/kg (group D). The primary outcomes were the severity of CRBD at 0.5, 1, 2, and 6 hours after treatment, and the other outcomes included the postoperative adverse events related to treatments. Results: The incidence of moderate-to-severe CRBD in group T was significantly lower than in group C at 0.5 hours (11.5% vs 87.4%, P<0.001), 1 hours (7.6% vs 92.3%, P=0.001), 2 hours (7.6% vs 92.3%, P=0.001), and 6 hours (11.5% vs 100%, P<0.001) after treatment. The postoperative incidences of PONV and respiratory depression were decreased significantly in group T compared to group C (P<0.05). Conclusions: Unilateral ilioinguinal TAPB with ropivacaine can decrease the severity of CRBD and reduce the side effects in male patients after general anesthesia as compared to intravenous sufentanil administration. Trial registration: This trial was registered with Clinicaltrials.gov as ChiCTR1900022869 on April 29, 2019, http://www.chictr.org.cn/showproj.aspx?proj=38516.

Published: January 2020

Background The present study aimed to evaluate whether the operating table height affected the success rate and incidence of complications of combined spinal-epidural anesthesia administered by residents during training. Methods One-hundred-and-eighty pregnant women, ASA I-II, were randomly allocated according to landmarks on the resident’s body: umbilicus (group U), lowest rib margin (R), and xiphoid process (X). The success rates of combined spinal-epidural anesthesia, the incidence of paresthesia and intravascular cannulation were recorded. Results There were no differences between the three groups in the success rates of combined spinal-epidural anesthesia, and the incidence of paresthesia and intravascular cannulation. However, paresthesia during epidural catheter advancement was more common on the left side (66.7%) than the right side (33.3%) (P=0.03). In group R, the success rate of epidural space puncture was higher during the residents’ third time (100%) than their first time (50%; P=0.01). Most residents (83%) preferred the table height at which the needle insertion point was at the level of their lowest rib margin. Conclusions The success rates of CESA during training did not be influenced by the operating table height which below the standing residents’ xiphoid process. But it may be helpful to suggest the residents to move the puncture point to the patients’ right slightly. It may be better to keep the table height at which the needle insertion point was level with the residents’ lowest rib margin. It was not just preferred by most of residents but also better for their training of performing epidural anesthesia.

Background: Commensal flora colonization during hospitalization by bacteria is the first step for a nosocomial infections while antibiotic resistance reduces therapeutic options. In aim to control this phenomenon, we initiated this study to describe the impact of hospitalization on colonization by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus in the surgical department in 03 health facilities of the Ndé division, west-Cameroon. Methods: This quasi-experimental study was carried out on patients admitted for surgery in 03 health facilities of the Ndé division, west-Cameroon (District Hospital of Bangangté, Protestant Hospital of Bangwa and Cliniques Universitaires des Montagnes). After obtaining ethical clearance and authorizations, nasal swabs were performed at admission and discharge, with the aim of isolating bacteria and performing their antibiotic susceptibility tests. Information on each participant's antibiotic therapy was recorded. Laboratory investigations were carried out according to standard protocols (CASFM, 2019). Results: The most commonly used antibiotics were β-lactam antibiotics. Of the 52 patients who agreed to participate in the study, 104 nasal swabs were performed. From the analysis, 110 (57 at admission versus 53 at discharge) Staphylococcus isolates were obtained. Overall, susceptibility testing showed that antibiotic resistance rates were higher at discharge than at admission; with significant differences between the susceptibility profiles obtained at admission and discharge for β-lactam antibiotics and not significant for fluoroquinolones and aminoglycosides. The nasal flora of 13 (25%) patients was colonized with methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus at admission versus 39 (75%) at discharge and 14 (24.56%) of the isolates obtained at admission were methicillin-resistant versus 37 (69.81%) at discharge. Of the variables studied, hospital stay remained the only variable significantly (p=0.0080) associated with colonization by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus.Conclusion: This work must be considered as an alarm bell regarding the role of health structures in the colonization and spread of multi-resistant bacteria in Ndé division. As a result, further investigations aimed at investigating the factors favouring this phenomenon should be carried out with an approach similar to that of the ONE HEALTH concept. Pending these investigations, we recommend strict compliance with hygiene rules, personalized antibiotic therapy (performing antibiotic susceptibility tests) and an updated antibiotic prophylaxis and probabilistic antibiotic therapy according to the studies carried out in the locality.

Background: This study aimed to evaluated whether using norepinephrine during the management of patients with septic shock impact perfusion index(PI) and patients outcomes. Methods: We performed a retrospective study among patients with septic shock from January 2014 to December 2018 who had undergone PICCO-plus cardiac output mornitoring and using norepinephrine during the management.We collected basic clinical characteristics.Hemodynamic parameters including lactate,PI and dose of norepinephrine at T0 and 24h after PICCO catheterization (T24) were obtained.We analyzed the effect of perfusion index and norepinephrine on prognosis of patients with septic shock and the correlation between perfusion index and the dose of norepinephrine. Results: There were 184 patients with septic shock who received during this period, and of these, 44 patients died during their ICU treatment.The PI of the nonsurvivors group was significantly lower than survivors group at T24 (0.5 ± 0.4 vs. 1.5 ± 1.3, P ＜0.001),and the Lac of the nonsurvivors group was significantly higher than the survivors group.In the dose of norepinephrine indicators, we found significantly statistical differences between the two groups at T0 and T24.Dose of norepinephrine and perfusion index were the most independent risk and protective factors for patient ICU mortality. The areas under the curve for a poor prognosis PI were 0.847 (95% CI: 0.782-0.912). The optimal cutoff value of the PI at T24 to predict ICU mortality was 0.6, with a sensitivity of 77.1% and specificity of 80%. Based upon the optimal cutoff value of the PI at T24, we divided patients into groups of PI≥0.6 (n = 125) and PI＜0.6 (n = 59).The Lac of the PI＜0.6 group was higher than the PI≥0.6 group at T24.In the sublingual dose of norepinephrine indicators, the PI＜0.6 group was significantly higher than the PI≥0.6 group.The PI was strong negative correlated with dose of norepinephrine (r = -0.344,P<0.001) and lactate (r = -0.291, P<0.001). Conclusions: A higher PI is a protective factor and using of higher dose of norepinephrine is a risk factor for the prognosis of critically ill patients with septic shock. Lower PI was associated with the higher dose of norepinephrine.

Introduction: Endotracheal intubation is an essential skill in emergency medicine requiring technical proficiency and sufficient preparation for a safe procedure. In the Helicopter Emergency Medical Service (HEMS), it is common to intubate the patient who needs an advanced airway prior to take-off. In-flight-intubation (IFI) is avoided because it is considered difficult due to environmental limitations of space, communication, and vibration. In contrast, IFI may shorten the total prehospital time since the procedure is conducted during the flight. We tested whether IFI can be performed safely and shorten transportation time. Methods: We conducted a retrospective cohort study with patients transported from Apr 2010 to Mar 2017 in a single center. We included patients ≥ 18 years who received prehospital intubation and excluded patients with emergent intubation at the scene. We divided the observational cohort into two groups. The Flight group (FG): included patients intubated during the flight. The Ground group (GG): included patients intubated prior to take-off. HEMS crews transported both groups. The primary outcome was the proportion of successful intubations. Secondary outcomes included total prehospital time and the incidence of complications such as hypoxia and hypotension. Result: We analyzed 376 patients during the study period. There were 192 cases in FG and 184 cases in GG. Intubation success rate did not differ between the two groups (FG vs GG: 98.4% vs 97.3%, p = 0.50). There were no differences in hypoxia (FG vs GG: 3.4% vs 4.2%, p = 1.00) or hypotension (FG vs GG: 5.1% vs 5.3%, p = 1.00) between two groups. Scene time was shorter in FG (FG vs GG: 7 min vs 14 min, p < 0.001), as was total prehospital time (FG vs GG: 33.5 min vs 40.0 min, p < 0.001). Conclusions: In-flight-intubation during HEMS could be safely performed without additional hypoxia or hypotension. In-flight-intubation by experienced providers shortened transportation time by an average of 7 minutes.
