Rezidivierende Kopfschmerzattacken mit wechselnden neurologischen Symptomen und Liquorpleozytose

Bis zum Juni 2021 bestanden bei einer 17-jährigen Patientin ohne Vorerkrankungen Wohlbefinden und keinerlei Einschränkungen in der Bewältigung der schulischen Anforderungen. Nach einem unkomplizierten respiratorischen Infekt, einer ca. 1 Woche darauf erfolgten ersten COVID-19(Corona Virus Disease 2019)-Impfung (Comirnaty®) und einem Urlaub in Norditalien kam es am 12.08.2021 zu einer sich über Minuten ausbreitenden Hemiparese links, Verschwommensehen, Erbrechen und Aphasie sowie Kopfschmerzen (okzipital beginnend, dumpf-drückenden Charakters mit intermittierend kurzzeitigem Stechen frontotemporal).

Recommendations for treatment of critically ill patients with COVID-19 : Version 3 S1 guideline.

Since December 2019 a novel coronavirus (severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2, SARS-CoV-2) has rapidly spread around the world resulting in an acute respiratory illness pandemic. The immense challenges for clinicians and hospitals as well as the strain on many healthcare systems has been unprecedented.The majority of patients present with mild symptoms of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19); however, 5-8% become critically ill and require intensive care treatment. Acute hypoxemic respiratory failure with severe dyspnea and an increased respiratory rate (>30/min) usually leads to intensive care unit (ICU) admission. At this point bilateral pulmonary infiltrates are typically seen. Patients often develop a severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).So far, remdesivir and dexamethasone have shown clinical effectiveness in severe COVID-19 in hospitalized patients. The main goal of supportive treatment is to ascertain adequate oxygenation. Invasive mechanical ventilation and repeated prone positioning are key elements in treating severely hypoxemic COVID-19 patients.Strict adherence to basic infection control measures (including hand hygiene) and correct use of personal protection equipment (PPE) are essential in the care of patients. Procedures that lead to formation of aerosols should be carried out with utmost precaution and preparation.

Home Office - Firmly Established Working Model Also After the Corona Pandemic?

Compliance with the Covid-19 pandemic measures required many companies to introduce and implement home offices. Not only the work processes, but also the team leadership had to be adapted to the new requirements within a short period of time [1, 6]. Spatial decentralization and management at a distance represented a challenge, especially for executives in middle management [7,11]. The AOK - Die Gesundheitskasse Sudlicher Oberrhein - has also enabled its employees to work from home as part of the corona pandemic measures and offered the work model as an option. The executives of middle management gained experience and knowledge during the Covid-19 pandemic and wish the flexible home office working model to be firmly established in the future.

[S2k Guideline - Recommendations for Inpatient Therapy of Patients with COVID-19]. / S2k-Leitlinie ­ Empfehlungen zur stationären Therapie von Patienten mit COVID-19.

Since December 2019, the novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome - Corona Virus-2) has been spreading rapidly in the sense of a global pandemic. This poses significant challenges for clinicians and hospitals and is placing unprecedented strain on the healthcare systems of many countries. The majority of patients with Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) present with only mild symptoms such as cough and fever. However, about 6 % require hospitalization. Early clarification of whether inpatient and, if necessary, intensive care treatment is medically appropriate and desired by the patient is of particular importance in the pandemic. Acute hypoxemic respiratory insufficiency with dyspnea and high respiratory rate (> 30/min) usually leads to admission to the intensive care unit. Often, bilateral pulmonary infiltrates/consolidations or even pulmonary emboli are already found on imaging. As the disease progresses, some of these patients develop acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Mortality reduction of available drug therapy in severe COVID-19 disease has only been demonstrated for dexamethasone in randomized controlled trials. The main goal of supportive therapy is to ensure adequate oxygenation. In this regard, invasive ventilation and repeated prone positioning are important elements in the treatment of severely hypoxemic COVID-19 patients. Strict adherence to basic hygiene, including hand hygiene, and the correct wearing of adequate personal protective equipment are essential when handling patients. Medically necessary actions on patients that could result in aerosol formation should be performed with extreme care and preparation.

Memento Mori: COVID-19 and the Political Imaginary of Death

The paper contrasts two complementary ways of conceptualising death in the context of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, notably death-in-the-plural, which involves death as an objective and collective phenomenon that occurs on the level of whole populations, and death-in-the-singular, which involves the ways in which individuals and communities deal 'subjectively' with death. It reconstructs how the sudden 'breaking in' of death as it occurs during a pandemic affects the 'normally' stratified political economy of life and opens up spaces of resistance on the basis of the 'resilient cohabitation' of those most exposed to death.

Border Regimes and Pandemic Law in Time of COVID-19: A View from Brazil

COVID-19 has had a profound impact on migrants and refugees the world over. Their pre-existing vulnerabilities were immediately exacerbated as national health systems were often overwhelmed and many disease control measures were either inaccessible to them or had disproportionate socio-economic effects. But migrants and refugees have also been framed as prima facie causes for the transboundary spread of the virus, and public health exception and derogation clauses in both national and international refugee and human rights instruments have been used to block their entry, suspend asylum processing, or trigger deportations. Taking the example of Brazil as a point of departure, the present contribution argues that (for at least some states) the appearance of the virus seems to have served as a legal carte blanche for fundamentally reconfiguring or closing down border regimes. More specifically, we argue that the strategic mainstreaming of global health regulations into border regimes points to the emergence of a "pandemic law"that encroaches upon already fragile transnational legal regime complexes, with the potential to upend or hollow out existing frameworks for migrant and refugee protection.
