A survey of deep learning for MRI brain tumor segmentation methods: Trends, challenges, and future directions
ConclusionThis review's objective is to increase scholars' interest in this difficult field and familiarize them with current advancements in it. To create CAD systems aimed at brain tumor identification using MR images, digital image processing approaches, such as preprocessing, segmentation, and classification, are applied. The classic machine learning and deep learning approaches for brain tumor identification are deliberated in this work. This paper provides a summary of commonly used MR image datasets. For classification, various machine learning and deep learning algorithms have been used. This survey examines curren...

Point of care transthoracic echocardiography for the prediction of post – spinal anesthesia hypotension in elderly patients with cardiac diseases and left ventricular dysfunction
AbstractIn elderly patients with cardiac diseases, changes in cardiovascular physiology diminish cardiovascular reserve and predispose to hemodynamic instability after spinal anesthesia; hence, such patients could be at risk of postoperative complications. Additionally, transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) is used in clinical practice to evaluate cardiovascular hemodynamics. Therefore, we hypothesized that echocardiographic measurements could display significant diagnostic power in the prediction of post - spinal anesthesia hypotension in elderly patients with cardiac diseases and reduced left ventricular ejection fraction...

Telemedicine During COVID-19 Pandemic: Lesson Learned from the Lazio Region Infectious Diseases and Emergency Department Network
We describe the teleconsultation (TC) model in the Lazio Region. It uses a hub-and-spoke network system on geographic regional basis using a web based digital platform, termed ADVICE with the aim to connect regional Emergency Departments (EDs) and Infectious Diseases (ID) acute and critical care settings for patients with acute ID syndrome. Between January 2020 and June 2021, the ADVICE platform received 18.686 TCs: of them, 10838 requests (58%) were for ID TCs in 7996 patients, followed by 2555(13%) requests for trauma, 2286(12%) for acute complex syndrome and 1681 (8%) for Stroke TCs. Three quarter of ID TCs were request...

Relationships between common carotid artery blood flow and anesthesia, pneumoperitoneum, and head-down tilt position: a linear mixed-effect analysis
Conclusion: CCA blood flow was significantly decreased by anesthesia induction. Inducing pneumoperitoneum, with or without the head-down tilt position, did not further decrease CCA blood flow if the cardiac index remained unchanged. The cardiac index and stroke volume index were significantly associated with CCA blood flow.Clinical trial registration: Clinicaltrials.gov (NCT04233177, January 18, 2020).

Indicators of haemodynamic instability and left ventricular function in a porcine model of esmolol induced negative inotropy
AbstractTo investigate if the Hypotension Prediction Index was an early indicator of haemodynamic instability in a negative inotropy porcine model, and to assess the correlation of commonly measured indicators of left ventricular systolic function. Eight anaesthetised pigs were volume resuscitated and then underwent an incremental infusion of esmolol hydrochloride (0-3000  mg/hr), following which it was then reduced in a stepwise manner. Full haemodynamic measurements were taken at each stage and measurements of left ventricular systolic function including left ventricular stroke work index, ejection fraction and peripher...

Pressure response to fluid challenge administration in hypotensive surgical patients: a post-hoc pharmacodynamic analysis of five datasets
In this study we  evaluated the effect of fluid challenge (FC) administration in elective surgical patients with low or normal blood pressure. Secondarily, we appraised the pharmacodynamic effect of FC in normotensive and hypotensive patients. We assessed five merged datasets of patients with a baseline mean arteri al pressure (MAP) above or below 65 mmHg and assessed the changes of systolic, diastolic, mean and dicrotic arterial pressures, dynamic indexes of fluid responsiveness and arterial elastance over a 10-min infusion. The hemodynamic effect was assessed by considering the net area under the curve (AUC ), the maxi...
