Acute liver failure.
Abstract Acute liver failure (ALF) is a rare critical illness with high mortality whose successful management requires early recognition and effective initial management. Though it may result from a wide variety of causes, in the UK and much of the developed world most cases result from paracetamol-induced hepatotoxicity, and administration of antidotal N-acetyl cysteine at first recognition is key. Involvement of local critical care services should occur at an early stage for stabilisation, monitoring and supportive care with parallel discussion with specialist liver centres to identify those patients who may ben...

Consensus Report by the Pediatric Acute Lung Injury and Sepsis Investigators and Pediatric Blood and Marrow Transplantation Consortium Joint Working Committees on Supportive Care Guidelines for Management of Veno-Occlusive Disease in Children and Adolescents, Part 3: Focus on Cardiorespiratory Dysfunction, Infections, Liver Dysfunction, and Delirium
In this report, we present guidelines for supportive care management of cardiorespiratory dysfunction, liver dysfunction, infections, and delirium in patients with VOD. These guidelines have been developed through a collaborative effort of the Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation (HCT) subgroup of the Pediatric Acute Lung Injury and Sepsis Investigators (PALISI) and the Supportive Care Committee of the Pediatric Blood and Marrow Transplantation Consortium (PBMTC).

LITFL • Life in the Fast Lane Medical Blog LITFL • Life in the Fast Lane Medical Blog - Emergency medicine and critical care medical education blog aka Tropical Travel Trouble 009 The diagnosis of HIV is no longer fatal and the term AIDS is becoming less frequent. In many countries, people with HIV are living longer than those with diabetes. This post will hopefully teach the basics of a complex disease and demystify some of the potential diseases you need to consider in those who are severely immunosuppressed. While trying to be comprehensive this post can not be exhaustive (as you can imagine any patient with a low ...

Transplant medicine through the years: a brief timeline
April is National Donate Life month, when people come together to raise awareness about organ donation and encourage others to register themselves as donors.  Donate Life Month is in its 11th year, but organ donation itself dates back much further. In fact, in ancient Greek, Roman and Chinese cultures there are legends of transplants performed by gods and healers, proving that the concept of organ donation is at least thousands of years old. Here’s a quick look at how organ transplantation has progressed over the years:  As early as 800 B.C., Indian healers were believed to be grafting skin—technically, the largest h...

The Cost of Public Reporting
ANISH KOKA MD In an age where big data is king and doctors are urged to treat populations, the journey of one man still has much to tell us. This is a tale of a man named Joe. Joseph Carrigan was a bear of a man – though his wife would say he was more teddy than bear.  He loved guitar playing,  and camp horror movies.  Those who knew him well said he had a kind heart, a quick wit and loved cats. I knew none of these things when I met Joe in the Emergency Department on a Sunday afternoon.  I had been called because of an abnormal electrocardiogram – the ER team was worried he could be having a heart attack. ...

Health Care Transition: A Time of Increased Vulnerability for Pediatric Liver Transplant Recipients
Improvements in pediatric liver transplantation (LT) have led to an increased number of patients reaching young adulthood. Young adult LT recipients transferring from pediatric to adult models of care have increased rates of rejection, graft loss, and medical complications. The goal of a health care transition program is to optimize health and assist youth in reaching their full potential. The means to achieve this goal requires an organized transition process to support youth in acquiring independent health care skills, preparing for an adult model of care, and transferring to new providers without disruption in treatment...

Technique advance to avoid hepatic venous outflow obstruction in pediatric living‐donor liver transplantation
Abstract HVOO represents a serious critical complication of pediatric living‐donor liver transplantation because open surgical repair is virtually impossible. Currently, despite several technical innovations and the introduction of triangulated anastomosis for hepatic vein reconstruction, the reported incidence of HVOO is still considerable. The aim of this study was to propose a new technique for hepatic venous reconstruction that avoids the original orifice of the recipient hepatic veins. Instead, anastomosis is performed in a newly created wide longitudinal orifice in the anterior wall of the recipient inferior vena c...
