Recent reports demonstrate high diagnostic accuracy of lung ultrasound for evaluation dyspnea. We assessed the feasibility training internal medicine residents in with a pocket device.We performed prospective, observational trial performing ultrasound. Training consisted two 90-minute sessions didactics and supervised bedside performance. Two received an additional 2 weeks training. Residents recorded clinical diagnosis based on admission data. Following performance, was integrating...
ABSTRACT Background and objective Pulmonary infarction (PI) from pulmonary embolism (PE) remains an entity of unclear aetiology. PI has been thought to occur in elderly patients with cardiopulmonary disease. We hypothesize younger without comorbidities are at highest risk. Our study aims characterize clinically radiographically, determine associated risk factors their clinical significance. Methods conducted a single‐centre retrospective review 367 consecutive PE. Clinical radiographic data...
Risk stratification for acute pulmonary embolism using imaging presence of right ventricular dysfunction is essential triage; however, comprehensive transthoracic echocardiography has limited availability. We assessed the accuracy and timeliness Pulmonary Critical Care Medicine Fellow's performance goal-directed echocardiograms intensivists' interpretations evaluating in embolism.Prospective observational study retrospective chart review.Four hundred fifty bed urban teaching hospital.Adult...
Rationale: Right heart thrombi (RiHT) is characterized by the presence of thrombus within right atrium or ventricle (RV). Current literature suggests pulmonary embolism (PE) with RiHT carries a high mortality. Guidelines lack recommendations in managing RiHT. We created pooled analysis on and report our institutional experience aimed to evaluate whether patient characteristics differing treatment modalities predict Methods: case reports series patients PE between January 1956 2017. also...
Point-of-care (POC) ultrasound (POCUS) has become an essential tool in caring for critically ill patients several specialties. Mastery POCUS requires competency image acquisition, interpretation, and integration into clinical care. Deliberate practice is effective method performance improvement many areas of medical education; however, it not well described the literature training.To analyze differences effect deliberate interpretation on groups with varying skill levels.We recruited...
In New York State, the Health Care Proxy Law allows patients to designate a person they trust make medical decisions on their behalf should lose capacity do so. an Intensive Unit (ICU) setting, identification of health care proxy (HCP) is especially important as are at heightened risk losing decision-making during clinical course. While our hospital has guidelines solicit and correctly document patient’s HCP information, it not routinely done. Missing or incomplete documentation prevalent...
