Moreover, tuberculosis disease in an HIV infected child is considered to be a clinical indication for initiation of antiretroviral treatment.
TB disease in a HIV infected child is considered to be a clinical indication for initiation of ART [ 59].
(Nurse) Experiences, like the examples described, are likely to influence both the clinician's and the caregiver's perception of the usefulness of a video-consultation and highlight the need for there to be a clinical indication for video communication.
We randomised patients either to routine care (control group), with catheters scheduled to be replaced every three days according to hospital policy, or to a group where the peripheral intravenous catheter was not replaced unless there was a clinical indication (clinically indicated group).
In other situations, the isolation may reflect colonisation, but given that colonisation itself is associated with substantial risk of subsequent infection[7] [9] and that there has been a clinical indication for taking a specimen (as opposed to a screen of an otherwise healthy appearing individual), its inclusion in a surveillance measure may be justified.
It is only performed if there is a clinical indication.
These findings were independent of whether or not there was a clinical indication for imaging.
Only patients in whom there was a clinical indication for additional hemodynamic monitoring using a pulmonary artery catheter (PAC) (Criticath SP 5507 H TD; Becton Dickinson, Singapore) or a continuous cardiac output (CCO) catheter (Arrow Deutschland GmbH, Erding, Germany) were included.
24 Although we had no registration on the indication for biopsy, the vast majority of biopsies in our study were performed for cause that is, a clinical indication such as elevated serum levels of prostate specific antigen or an abnormal digital rectal examination and therefore, a much larger proportion of cancers were clinically significant in our study than in the PCPT and REDUCE trials.
The conclusions of the study were that MRI detects significant rates of re-coarctation late after repair and that this finding was independent of whether there was a clinical indication for stenting, the implication perhaps being that MRI could be used as a routine screening method for possible re-coarctation.
The presence of specific risk factors (e.g., previous diagnosis of GDM or delivery of a macrosomic infant, member of a high risk population, age > 35, obesity, polycystic ovarian syndrome, acanthosis nigricans, or corticosteroid use) was a clinical indication for the performance of glucose testing in the first trimester.
