The Queen, however, fell ill on 23 October from presumed postnatal complications, and died the following night.
24 In our study, in parallel with the increased incidence of pulmonary embolism, we found presumed anticoagulation complications for US patients admitted to hospital with pulmonary embolism to have increased from 3.1 to 5.3 per 100 000 (P<0.001) between 1998 and 2006.
The complications included culture-proved line infection (n = 9/52 complications, 17%), presumed line infection (n = 6/52 complications, 12%), cellulitis (n = 4/52 complications, 8%), mechanical line failure (n = 4/52 complications, 8%), pain that required line discontinuation (n = 2/52 complications, 4%), and superficial thrombophlebitis (n = 1/52 complications, 2%).
In ADPKD patients, the presence of multiple cysts in both kidneys is considered as a contraindication to percutaneous renal biopsy due to the presumed risk of complications and difficulty in obtaining suitable tissue for diagnosis.
Since the presence of multiple bilateral cysts has been listed as relative contraindication to percutaneous renal biopsy, due to the presumed risk of complications and difficulties in obtaining suitable tissue for diagnosis, a majority of ADPKD patients received an open surgical biopsy.
I believe that the prognosis after 3 months on intractable SE as a complication of presumed viral encephalitis is poor in the extreme.
Until recently, in the United Kingdom, borderline resectable pancreatic cancer with invasion into the portomesenteric veins often resulted in surgical bypass because of the presumed high risk for complications and the uncertainty of a survival benefit associated with a vascular resection.
Given that naproxen is thought to have the highest level of upper GI complications, any presumed CV risk mitigation should be met with the equal understanding of that increased GI risk.
We investigated in bivariate analyses factors associated with statin prescription in subjects stratified according to whether they had a history of CHD, stroke, or peripheral arterial occlusive disease (secondary prevention), and in subjects presumed free of atherosclerotic complications (primary prevention).
Although corticosteroids are not mentioned in the WHO guidelines on the management of dengue, clinicians use corticosteroids empirically based on the presumed immunological basis of the complications of dengue.
Patients aged 65 years and older are not traditionally considered optimal candidates for subthalamic deep brain stimulation (STN-DBS), mainly for their presumed increased incidence of surgical complications.
