SZENT GYÖRGY HOSPITAL, SZÉKESFEHÉRVÁR

Number of meta-analyses: 2

Project Description:

Gergő is an oxyologist and emergency physician specialist at Szent György Hospital, Székesfehérvár. His first project in the PhD Program is a systematic review and meta-analysis about the added value of Point of Care Ultrasound (PoCUS) use in the management of patients admitted with acute dyspnoea in the A&E. His main objective is to examine whether PoCUS usage added to conventional modalities improves clinical outcomes in patients with acute onset dyspnoea. His second project is another meta-analysis about comparing the efficacy of 0.9 % NaCl versus balanced electrolyte solutions (BES) in resolving diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) in adults admitted to the A&E. Evidence is still controversial on this topic, therefore he aims to perform a meta-analysis of all published studies in the field and provide further evidence regarding the best type of fluid for resuscitation in DKA.
