Hiroshi Hoshijima 교수의 연구실은 주로 의료 영상 및 기기, 특히 비디오 래라로스코프를 활용한 기도 관리와 기도 삽입의 정확성 향상에 초점을 맞추고 있습니다. 또한 중환자 치료에서의 합병증 예방, 특히 기계 통기 중 폐렴 예방을 위한 구강 위생 관리의 유효성에 대한 메타분석도 수행하고 있습니다. 추가로 수술 환자의 사망률과 의료진의 수술량 간의 상관관계나, 입원 시기(주말 여부)에 따른 사망 위험도 분석을 통해 의료 품질 향상에 기여하고자 합니다.

The Pentax Airway Scope(®) is a single-use optical videolaryngoscope designed to assist with difficult tracheal intubation. We systematically reviewed the efficacy of the Pentax Airway Scope with that of a conventional laryngoscope for tracheal intubation in adults with 'normal' and 'difficult' airways. We included 17 randomised controlled trials with a total of 1801 participants. We used the DerSimonian and Laird random-effects model to calculate pooled relative risk or weighted mean difference
It is widely accepted that higher mortality related to weekend admissions basically exists; however, there has been no systematic exploration of whether weekend admissions are associated with higher risk of death in patients on the basis of certain diagnoses, geographic regions, and study subtypes.A meta-analysis was performed according to the reporting guidelines of the Meta-analysis of Observational Studies in Epidemiology (MOOSE Compliant). Literature search was conducted using electronic dat
Accumulation of the literature has suggested an inverse association between healthcare provider volume and mortality for a wide variety of surgical procedures. This study aimed to perform meta-analysis of meta-analyses (umbrella review) of observational studies and to summarize existing evidence for associations of healthcare provider volume with mortality in major operations.We searched MEDLINE, SCOPUS, and Cochrane Library, and screening of references.Meta-analyses of observational studies exa
The current meta-analysis may provide a complete picture of incidence in PASC. It remains unclear, however, whether post-COVID symptoms progress or regress over time or to what extent PASC are associated with age or sex.
Our meta-analysis suggests that deep sedation resulted in improved patient satisfaction compared with light/moderate sedation. Deep sedation is recommended for patients undergoing procedures because it improves patient satisfaction. However, respiration and circulation should be carefully monitored both intra-operatively and postoperatively.
Ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) is one of the most frequent causes of morbidity and mortality among mechanically ventilated patients in critical care. Previous meta-analyses demonstrated that oral chlorhexidine (CHX) is beneficial in preventing VAP. Several new studies on oral hygiene as a preventive measure for VAP have been published. Considering all the currently available evidence together, an updated meta-analysis was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of oral CHX in preventing VAP. A

Acetaminophen (APAP) in humans has robust effects with a high therapeutic index in altering postoperative and inflammatory pain states in clinical and experimental pain paradigms with no known abuse potential. This review considers the literature reflecting the preclinical actions of acetaminophen in a variety of pain models. Significant observations arising from this review are as follows: 1) acetaminophen has little effect upon acute nociceptive thresholds; 2) acetaminophen robustly reduces fa
