The doctor-patient-relation is a powerful and important tool in the complex care for patients with (chronical) MUS.
We hypothesize that the deformation-area curves will show an alteration in the relationship between deformation and area for the differing (pressure or volume related) cardiovascular diseases
Patients suffering from high risk or relapsed leukaemia or high risk MDS can only occasionally be cured with conventional chemotherapy. Allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-SCT) has substantially improved the outcome of such patients due to a…
The Aeonose is capable to correctly distinguish patients with dyspnea resulting from heart failure from patients with dyspnea caused by lung failure.
The aim of the study is to explore the relation between frailty, functional status and other patient characteristics and adverse outcomes as functional decline, length of stay, admissions and mortality. Frailty is multifactorial and is known to be…
We expect that depressive adolescents will show a stronger increase in heart rate during, as well as a slower recovery afterwards, when they are left in the game or when they encounter fearful stimuli compared to non-depressive adolescents. Finally…
In this current research we investigate whether the GPS is a reliable and valid screening instrument for PDs in geriatric medicine, and therefore could be used as a supplement on the currently used assessment methods of the multi-problems associated…
It is safe, in terms of rate of thrombotic complications, to refrain from prophylactically flushing the Venous Access Port (VAP) in children with cancer (compared to flushing it every six weeks) when not in use.
Primary hypotheses The primary hypothesis of the present study is that included patients who receive continuous or intermittent oxygen and bilevel positive pressure ventilation during fixed work rate treadmill exercise tests have shorter recovery…
The implementation of feeding in highcare will lead to improved patient satisfaction, decrease in postoperative nausea and vomiting and a decrease in postoperative gastro-intestinal complications like ileus.
The effectiveness of a health game based on an Evaluative Conditioning paradigm compared to a control game will be tested in a Dutch sample of adolescents. It is expected that the adolescents in the intervention condition will show a increased…
