Test weighing using a double-check weighing method is precise in determining infant intake: in more than 90% of weighings test weighing will be within 5ml of the actual amount drunk
For patients with stage III-IV irresectable melanoma who have at most 3 metastases, the tumor can be reduced in size by treating with dabrafenib and trametinib for 8 weeks. After this reduction, complete surgery of the tumor could be made possible.
The TORCH screen is often requested by gynecologists, but there rarely is a clinical relevant outcome. Isn’t it better to reduce the test indications or the number of tested infections to make the test more cost effective and clinical relevant? And…
The primary endpoint of this study is to assess if myocardial strain and strain rate -measured with tissue Doppler and 2D speckle tracking- determined with TOE is comparable with cardiac strain and strain rate determined with TTE. Secondary…
Applying to the antibiotic checklist - based on generic quality indicators for the antibiotic treatment of bacterial infections in the hospital - will likely result into better patient care in terms of adequate treatment, duration of intensive care…

An intervention with a fortified drink containing iron, zinc, vitamin A, vitamin C, folate, vitamin B-12 and B-6 and/or omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids over one year can improve cognitive performance in Australian well-nourished children and…
We hypothesize that diagnostic accuracy increases when, apart from cytologic samples, material is aspirated for thin layer preparation in endoscopic-ultrasound guided fine needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) of masses.

With postoperative minimal enteral feeding (MEF) the neonates can be fed completely enteral earlier than without MEF.
We expect that when the developed checklist will be used in de diagnostic proces of children with developmental and/or behavioral disability, the use of pediatric care will be more efficiently used. Over and underdiagnoses of a causal somatic…
We believe that a routine graft biopsy at 6 and 12 months together with graft function represents the best surrogate marker for late graft loss.
The implicit training (AAT) added to standard behaviour therapy will reduce relapse rates after treatment when compared to the control group.
