Calcium administration increases the mortality of endotoxic shock in rats.

abstract：:Patient comfort is not assured by common practices for terminal extubation. Treatment guidelines suggest minimizing dosage of opioids and sedatives. Multiple lines of evidence indicate that clinicians are limited in their ability to recognize distress in such patients and tend to undermedicate patients in distress. Ye...
