- Organising healthcare services for persons with an intellectual disability
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 11-Apr-2016
When compared to the general population, persons with an intellectual disability have lower life expectancy, higher morbidity, and more difficulty finding and obtaining healthcare. Organisational interventions are used to reconfigure the structure or deli - Orientation and mobility training for adults with low vision
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 12-May-2010
Orientation and mobility (O&M) training is provided to people who are visually impaired to help them maintain travel independence. It teaches them new orientation and mobility skills to compensate for reduced visual information. - Oropharyngeal colostrum in preventing mortality and morbidity in preterm infants
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 7-Sep-2018
Placing a small volume of colostrum directly onto the buccal mucosa of preterm infants during the early neonatal period may provide immunological and growth factors that stimulate the immune system and enhance intestinal growth. These benefits could poten - Orotracheal intubation in infants performed with a stylet versus without a stylet
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 22-Jun-2017
Neonatal endotracheal intubation is a common and potentially life-saving intervention. It is a mandatory skill for neonatal trainees, but one that is difficult to master and maintain. Intubation opportunities for trainees are decreasing and success rates - Orthodontic and orthopaedic treatment for anterior open bite in children
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 23-Sep-2014
Anterior open bite occurs when there is a lack of vertical overlap of the upper and lower incisors. The aetiology is multifactorial including: oral habits, unfavourable growth patterns, enlarged lymphatic tissue with mouth breathing. Several treatments ha - Orthodontic treatment for crowded teeth in children
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 31-Dec-2021
Crowded teeth develop when there is not enough space in the jaws into which the teeth can erupt. Crowding can affect baby teeth (deciduous dentititon), adult teeth (permanent dentition), or both, and is a common reason for referral to an orthodontist. Cro - Orthodontic treatment for deep bite and retroclined upper front teeth in children
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 1-Feb-2018
A Class II division 2 malocclusion is characterised by upper front teeth that are retroclined (tilted toward the roof of the mouth) and an increased overbite (deep overbite), which can cause oral problems and may affect appearance. - Orthodontic treatment for distalising upper first molars in children and adolescents
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 22-Oct-2013
When orthodontic treatment is provided with fixed appliances, it is sometimes necessary to move the upper molar teeth backwards (distalise) to create space or help to overcome anchorage requirements. This can be achieved with the use of extraoral or intra - Orthodontic treatment for posterior crossbites
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 24-Dec-2021
A posterior crossbite occurs when the top back teeth bite inside the bottom back teeth. The prevalence of posterior crossbite is around 4% and 17% of children and adolescents in Europe and America, respectively. Several treatments have been recommended to - Orthodontic treatment for prominent lower front teeth (Class III malocclusion) in children
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 30-Sep-2013
Prominent lower front teeth (termed reverse bite; under bite; Class III malocclusion) may be due to a combination of the jaw or tooth positions or both. The upper jaw (maxilla) can be too far back or the lower jaw (mandible) too far forward, or both. Prom - Orthodontic treatment for prominent upper front teeth (Class II malocclusion) in children and adolescents
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 13-Mar-2018
Prominent upper front teeth are a common problem affecting about a quarter of 12-year-old children in the UK. The condition develops when permanent teeth erupt. These teeth are more likely to be injured and their appearance can cause significant distress. - Orthodontics for treating temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 7-Jan-2016
Temporomandibular disorders (TMD) relate to discomfort of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ). The disorder is multifactorial with a degree of psychogenic influence varying throughout an individual's life with phases of symptoms affecting the quality of lif - Orthotic devices after stroke and other non-progressive brain lesions
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 7-May-2009
Post-stroke motor impairments cause difficulty controlling the joints of the affected limbs to produce useful movements. One way to manage this to use an orthosis to control the movement of the affected joints but evidence for their benefit is lacking. - Orthotic devices for the treatment of tennis elbow
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 21-Jan-2002
Lateral epicondylitis (tennis elbow) is a frequently reported condition. A wide variety of treatment strategies has been described. As of yet, no optimal strategy has been identified. - Orthotic devices for treating patellofemoral pain syndrome
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 4-Nov-2008
Patellofemoral pain syndrome is a frequently reported condition in active adults. A wide variety of conservative treatment strategies have been described. As yet, no optimal strategy has been identified. Application of orthotic devices e.g. knee braces, k - Oscillating devices for airway clearance in people with cystic fibrosis
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 30-Apr-2020
Chest physiotherapy is widely prescribed to assist the clearance of airway secretions in people with cystic fibrosis. Oscillating devices generate intra- or extra-thoracic oscillations orally or external to the chest wall. Internally they create variable - Osmotic and stimulant laxatives for the management of childhood constipation
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 17-Aug-2016
Constipation within childhood is an extremely common problem. Despite the widespread use of osmotic and stimulant laxatives by health professionals to manage constipation in children, there has been a long standing paucity of high quality evidence to supp - Osmotic therapies added to antibiotics for acute bacterial meningitis
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 6-Feb-2018
Every day children and adults die from acute community-acquired bacterial meningitis, particularly in low-income countries, and survivors risk deafness, epilepsy and neurological disabilities. Osmotic therapies may attract extra-vascular fluid and reduce - Osteotomy for treating knee osteoarthritis
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 13-Dec-2014
Patients with unicompartmental osteoarthritis of the knee can be treated with an osteotomy. The goal of an osteotomy is to unload the diseased compartment of the knee. This is the second update of the original review published in The Cochrane Library, Iss - Osteotomy, compression and other modifications of surgical techniques for internal fixation of extracapsular hip fractures
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 15-Apr-2009
Many different surgical techniques have been described for the internal fixation of extracapsular hip fractures.
