Leveraging Opportunities for Critical Care in Resource-Limited Settings 2014-09-30 .txt text/plain 3446 171 39 To attempt to provide a more comprehensive picture of the global burden of critical illness using "prototypical" illnesses of sepsis, acute lung injury, and mechanical ventilation, the investigators drew incidence and prevalence rates from observational population-based studies in several countries [2e8] and applied them to data on population and deaths from the Global Burden of Disease project by World Bank regions [9] . Low-cost mobile devices have been adapted in resource-limited settings to provide diagnostic testing for HIV and then to synchronize results in real time with electronic medical health records to expand both care and epidemiological data collection [79] . Knowledge gaps stem from differences in acute disease burden depending on geography, such as with Ebola, severe acute respiratory syndrome, or Middle East respiratory syndrome, as well as from management in resource-limited areas where diagnostics and treatment modalities may not be readily available or patients present in the community and not at more centralized health facilities. ./cache/cord-268887-ewf5xhqi.txt ./txt/cord-268887-ewf5xhqi.txt
