Abstract Objectives We aimed to evaluate thrombotic and hemorrhagic complications with heparin versus bivalirudin use in veno‐venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (V‐V ECMO). Methods performed a retrospective cohort study of adult patients placed on V‐V ECMO intravenous anticoagulation either or bivalirudin. Time event major bleed were analyzed addition related outcomes. Results identified 95 ECMO: 61 receiving heparin, 34 The group had higher rate severe COVID‐19, BMI, longer...
Background Experimental data suggest general anesthetics preferring γ-aminobutyric acid receptor type A may increase postoperative pain in patients with persistent inflammation. The current study was designed to begin test this hypothesis. Methods Groups of rats were defined by the presence inflammation, surgical intervention, and/or anesthetic used for a 3-h period anesthesia. Persistent inflammation induced complete Freund adjuvant. intervention plantar incision. Three mechanistically...
Background: Proton pump inhibitor (PPI) continuous infusions or intermittent boluses are used for the treatment of upper gastrointestinal bleeding (UGIB). Intermittent easier to give and lower cost without affecting clinical outcomes. Objective: To compare rate rebleeding between bolus infusion PPI therapy. Methods: We performed a retrospective, multicenter review patients with UGIB receiving either During study period, due drug supply shortages, each institution implemented policies...
Background Patients receiving oral anticoagulation who experience a traumatic intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) should receive reversal. Four factor prothrombin complex concentrate (4FPCC) is indicated for reversal of warfarin, and frequently used direct-acting anticoagulants (DOACs). The purpose this study to compare the safety efficacy 4FPCC ICH in DOAC- warfarin-anticoagulated patients. Methods This was single-center, retrospective review adult patients with received between April 2013 August...
Background Non-operative management (NOM) is the current standard of care hemodynamically stable patients with traumatic blunt solid abdominal organ injuries. Guidelines do not define optimal timing initiation venous thromboembolism (VTE) prophylaxis in this population, and fear failure NOM may lead to delayed specifically high-grade Methods This was a single-center, retrospective study (AAST grades ≥3) liver splenic lacerations presenting our level 1 trauma center between January 2010...
This study of anesthetic malpractice claims found that autopsy findings are more often helpful than harmful in the defense anesthesia care.Autopsies should be encouraged for unexpected deaths or death with ambiguous causes.
Introduction: Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is associated with significant thrombotic complications necessitating anticoagulation, though optimal strategy remains unknown. We aimed to evaluate and hemorrhagic heparin versus bivalirudin use in veno-venous (V-V) ECMO.Methods: performed a retrospective cohort study of adult patients placed on V-V ECMO intravenous anticoagulation either or bivalirudin. Time event (patient-sided thrombus circuit lung exchange) major bleed were...
