Debilitating


Definition:

  • (p. pr. & vb. n.) of Debilitate

Example Sentences:

  • (1) The early death of PL mice is related to generalized debilitation from prolonged distal colonic obstruction resulting in a decrease in immunologic integrity and an increased susceptibility to sepsis.
  • (2) We have modified one of these operations in order to manage debilitating aspiration in a 14-year-old boy.
  • (3) The clinical and laboratory findings indicate that infections occurred in debilitated as well as nondebilitated individuals.
  • (4) Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) increases risk, which means that women who take it will need to balance the breast cancer risk against the sometimes distressing and debilitating symptoms of the menopause.
  • (5) The progressive assumption of personal responsibility for the debilitative mood state is accompanied by a corresponding shift in a locus of control set from externality to internality.
  • (6) Endocarcial pacing is reserved for the very aged and debilitated patients, patients requiring implantation within 4 to 6 weeks of acute myocardial infarction, and for atrial or atrioventricular sequential pacing.
  • (7) The water-soluble contrast medium used so far appears to be in need of improvement in respect of "x-ray density", viscosity and osmolarity, the more so since the danger of aspiration is high in the postoperative, debilitated patient.
  • (8) This block provides profound anesthesia with minimal risk in debilitated, high-risk patients.
  • (9) The results indicate that many of these symptoms were persistent 18 months later and continued to be significantly debilitating.
  • (10) Although definitive therapy may need to be delayed and further surgery performed, this is more acceptable in the face of life-threatening disease than the consequences of unnecessary gynecologic surgery or debilitation.
  • (11) Bacterial infections (27%) and parasitism (27%) were also of major importance in the death and debilitation of Oregon marine mammals.
  • (12) Four had preceding trauma (ischiorectal abscess, puncture wound, surgery) and four had pre-existing debilitating problems (diabetes, rectal carcinoma, acute lymphocytic leukemia, alcoholic cirrhosis).
  • (13) The bovine immunodeficiency-like virus (BIV) is morphologically, serologically, and genetically related to the lentivirus subfamily of retroviruses which includes human and simian immunodeficiency viruses and other lentiviruses causally associated with debilitating diseases of domestic animals.
  • (14) Generalized enlargement of the cortical sulci and ventricles (pattern C) probably reflected atrophic changes from the chronic human immunodeficiency virus infection and prolonged debilitating illness.
  • (15) Illness in several infants was protracted and debilitating because of the relapsing nature of the infection.
  • (16) TSD rats had not shown similarly low Tb until just prior to death, but had shown signs of severe pathology, including severely debilitated appearance, disheveled fur, and severe lesions on their tails and on the plantar surfaces of their paws.
  • (17) Cryptococcosis in patients with the syndrome is a debilitating disease that does not respond to conventional therapy; earlier diagnosis or long-term suppressive therapy may improve the prognosis.
  • (18) Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is one of the major chronic debilitating diseases frequently seen in hospital settings.
  • (19) IORT presents several challenges to the anesthesiologist, including patients who are debilitated from their disease or chemotherapy, operations involving major tumor resections, intraoperative interdepartmental transport of patients, and remote monitoring of patients during electron beam therapy.
  • (20) The presence of functional debilitation or dementia was associated with a lower likelihood of non-elective readmission compared with the absence of these conditions.
