Why the difference?Iraq needs further intervention, argues Mr Packer, because "unlike Vietnam, ISIS is an irreconcilable enemy and a metastasising threat".
We do look after a lot of chronic things ourselves but otherwise it's assessing people and deciding who needs further intervention, who doesn't.
ESWL complications were defined as events that occurred within several days after the procedure and were classified as either major, which needed further intervention, or minor, which were relieved by conservative treatment.
However, none of the imaging modalities can differentiate a complete response (0% viable cells) from microscopic residual disease (1 10% viable cells) so patients with a complete metabolic response may still need further intervention.
Complications were divided into (1) major complications, defined as those that were expected to have an effect on the final outcome, (2) moderate complications, defined as those that were not expected to have an effect on the final outcome but would need further interventions, and (3) minor complications, defined as temporary and self-healing.
Cardiovascular risk factors associated with frailty and pre-frailty could be used to identify an at-risk group needing further assessment and possibly intervention aimed at cardiovascular risk prevention.
Our data suggest but do not prove that induced hypertension might be helpful for a short time period in the particular selected group of patients with low-flow haemodynamic infarction, but patients might still need further vascular intervention for final clinical stabilisation.
However, our study has demonstrated that unilateral DC increased the incidence of delayed intracranial hematomas and subdural effusion, some of which need further surgical intervention.
We propose that risk stratification should be viewed as a screening test whereby a population at potential risk (all cancer survivors) are offered a test (risk stratification tool) to determine those who need further investigation, intervention or support.
Our results strongly suggest that even with the favorable neurological outcome, unilateral DC increases the incidence of delayed intracranial hematomas and subdural effusion, some of which need further surgical intervention.
