Coronavirus (COVID-19): Evidence Collection. Evidence Aid
Factors associated with psychological outcomes among healthcare workers involved in the SARS crisis were examined to identify recommendations for ways to reduce the risk of adverse mental health outcomes within healthcare organisations affected by epidemics, pandemics or emerging infectious diseases.
In this systematic review, the authors searched for quantitative research of a variety of designs. They restricted their search to articles published in English and did their search in 2015. They ...

They are associated with a high probability of omission of melanomas. Applications based on the storage and sending of images could have a potential role in the timely consultation of patients with potentially malignant lesions, since they facilitate active self-care practices, and the early participation of patients with suspicious skin lesions; however, they can involve a significant increase in resources and workload. Given the paucity of evidence and the low methodological quality of ...

The use of a more broadly defined threshold to identify "possibly" malignant cases or lesions to be considered for excision is likely to facilitate proper triage of lesions requiring in-person specialist evaluation. Despite the increase in the use of teledermatology at the international level, the evidence base to support the ability to accurately diagnose injuries and to triage injuries from primary to secondary care is insufficient, and needs more pragmatic and prospective evaluation.

Some trials reported small beneficial effects, while others found no effect. There is low-quality evidence that these interventions did not cause harmful effects. According to this review, there is currently uncertainty regarding the effectiveness of these interventions. We identified six ongoing trials conducted in different settings, including low-income settings, that could generate more accurate estimates of the effect of medication adherence interventions for primary prevention provided by ...
The current, limited evidence suggests that the routine use of haloperidol for preventing intensive care unit (ICU) delirium is not an effective strategy.
The quality of the evidence for dexmedetomidine versus lorazepam was low, and very low for dexmedetomidine versus haloperidol.
We found very low‐quality evidence that a regimen of no sedation versus standard sedation increased the incidence of agitated delirium, while decreasing the number of ventilator‐free days and length of ICU and ...
