Ultrasound endoscopes and routine microbiological surveillance – another critical device in reprocessing Periodic routine microbiological surveillance of gastrointestinal endoscopes is recommended to ensure adequacy of reprocessing. We aimed to investigate whether there were differences in contamination ...

Use of carbon dioxide production to detect bacterial superinfections in mechanically ventilated patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome: an exploratory prospective cohort study Background Bacterial superinfections are common in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) but diagnosing them is challenging. Exhaled carbon dioxide (V’CO2) may be increased during b...
