Guest guest Posted October 13, 2009 Report Share Posted October 13, 2009 Despite the severity of disease and the intensity of treatment, most patients in Australia and New Zealand who experienced respiratory failure as a result of 2009 influenza A(H1N1) and were treated with a system that adds oxygen to the patient's blood survived the disease, according to a study to appear in the 4 November issue of JAMA. This study is being published early online because of its public health importance. The influenza A(H1N1) pandemic affected Australia and New Zealand during the 2009 southern hemisphere winter, causing an epidemic of critical illness. Some patients developed severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and were treated with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), according to background information in the article. http://www.sciencecentric.com/news/article.php?q=09101333-most-h1n1-patients-with-respiratory-failure-treated-with-oxygenating-system-survive-illness Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 14, 2009 Report Share Posted October 14, 2009 I’ve read and heard so much good stuff about oil pulling, though from what I’ve read, ANY kind of oil will work fine. I am going to put that on my daily regimen for a while. Thanks for the reminder, Clare. Jan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
