Canadian Cardiovascular Society/Canadian Cardiovascular Critical Care Society/Canadian Association of Interventional Cardiology Position Statement on the Optimal Care of the Post Arrest Patient'
Publication date: Available online 3 November 2016 Source:Canadian Journal of Cardiology Author(s): Graham C. Wong, Sean van Diepen, Craig Ainsworth, Rakesh C. Arora, Jean G. Diodati, Mark Liszkowski, Michael Love, Chris Overgaard, Greg Schnell, Jean-Francois Tanguay, George Wells, Michel Le May Out of hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is associated with a low rate of survival to hospital discharge and high rates of neurological morbidity amongst survivors. Programmatic efforts to institute and integrate OCHA best care practices from the bystander response through to the in-hospital phase have been associated with improved p...

Point-of-Care Ultrasound for Submassive Pulmonary Embolism
Pulmonary embolism (PE) is a common and potentially fatal diagnosis that must be considered in the emergency department (ED) setting in patients presenting with chest pain or shortness of breath. PE accounts for approximately 100,000 deaths annually in the United States and, according to some studies, this rate is increasing (1). Although computed tomography pulmonary angiography (CTPA) is the gold standard imaging modality for the diagnosis of PE, point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) is often more readily available and can be used to quickly obtain critical information regarding global cardiac function and direct management.

Does follow-up D-dimer level help in predicting oxygenation status, ventilatory support requirement, lung fibrosis, and thromboembolic events in coronavirus disease 2019 pneumonia ? A prospective observational study in a tertiary care setting in India
Conclusions: D-dimer has documented a very crucial role in COVID-19 pneumonia in predicting the severity of illness and assessing response to treatment during hospitalization, and follow-up titers have a significant role in step-up or step-down interventions in a critical care setting.

Comparison of Clinician Suspicion Versus a Clinical Prediction Rule in Identifying Children at Risk for Intra-abdominal Injuries After Blunt Torso Trauma.
CONCLUSIONS: The derived clinical prediction rule had a significantly higher sensitivity, but lower specificity, than clinician suspicion for identifying children with intra-abdominal injuries undergoing acute intervention. The higher specificity of clinician suspicion, however, did not translate into clinical practice, as clinicians frequently obtained abdominal CT scans in patients they considered very low risk. If validated, this prediction rule can assist in clinical decision-making around abdominal CT use in children with blunt torso trauma. PMID: 26302354 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Recent developments in the management of patients resuscitated from cardiac arrest
Publication date: June 2017 Source:Journal of Critical Care, Volume 39 Author(s): Jacob C. Jentzer, Casey M. Clements, Joseph G. Murphy, R. Scott Wright Cardiac arrest is the leading cause of death in Europe and the United States. Many patients who are initially resuscitated die in the hospital, and hospital survivors often have substantial neurologic dysfunction. Most cardiac arrests are caused by coronary artery disease; patients with coronary artery disease likely benefit from early coronary angiography and intervention. After resuscitation, cardiac arrest patients remain critically ill and frequently suffer cardiogeni...

Survival Prediction in Patients with Hypertensive Chronic Kidney Disease in Intensive Care Unit: A Retrospective Analysis Based on the MIMIC-III Database
CONCLUSION: We trained and validated a model using data from a large multicenter cohort, which has considerable predictive performance on an individual scale and could be used to improve treatment strategies.PMID:35600047 | PMC:PMC9119756 | DOI:10.1155/2022/3377030

Intracoronary Transfusion of Circulation-Derived CD34+ Cells Improves Left Ventricular Function in Patients With End-Stage Diffuse Coronary Artery Disease Unsuitable for Coronary Intervention*
This study tested the hypothesis that intra-coronary transfusion of circulation-derived autologous CD34+ cells can improve ischemia-related left ventricular dysfunction in patients with severe diffuse coronary artery disease refractory to medication and unsuitable for coronary intervention. Design: A prospective, randomized, double-blinded phase I clinical trial. Setting: Tertiary care center. Patients: Thirty-eight patients with severe diffuse coronary artery disease were randomized into group 1 and group 2 receiving CD34+ cell infusion with dosages of 1.0 x 107 and 3.0 x 107 cells/vessel, respectively, after subcutaneous...

Do cardiac arrest centres save more lives?
Publication date: Available online 13 May 2016 Source:Trends in Anaesthesia and Critical Care Author(s): Eldar Søreide, Michael Busch During the last 15 years post resuscitation care after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) has evolved into something quite complicated and multifaceted. Still, in most countries post resuscitation care is not centralised to specialised hospitals. In other acute and life-threatening diseases like neuro-trauma, acute myocardial infarction and stroke specialised hospital care has now become standard practise. In this review, we present the historic changes in post resuscitation care wit...

Emergency and critical care applications for contrast-enhanced ultrasound
Contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) using intravascular microbubbles has potential to revolutionize point-of-care ultrasonography by expanding the use of ultrasonography into clinical scenarios previously reserved for computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging, or angiography.

Intravenous Thrombolysis at 3.5 Hours From Onset of Pediatric Acute Ischemic Stroke
We report the case of a 14-year-old girl who presented with right-sided weakness and ataxia, loss of sensation, and altered mental status. Magnetic resonance imaging with diffusion-weighted imaging showed an acute lesion in the distribution of the left posterior cerebral artery, and magnetic resonance angiogram demonstrated occlusion of the third branch of the left posterior cerebral artery. With parental consent, clinicians decided to infuse an adult dose of weight-adjusted intravenous alteplase at 3.5 hours from onset of symptoms, with subsequent improvement in National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score from 11 to ...
