Objective: To evaluate the risk for serious/sentinel adverse events among hospitalized children according to race, ethnicity, and language factors affecting length of stay associated with events. Methods: We conducted a retrospective cohort study all pediatric inpatients at large children’s hospital from October 2007 2009. evaluated relationship between self-reported primary language; having serious or sentinel event, defined as an unexpected occurrence involving death injury; potentially...
To describe patterns of clinical Spanish use by pediatric residents, and to compare self-assessment language proficiency against an objective test.In 2010, the authors e-mailed a survey all 247 residents at three institutions, inviting those with any level ability participate. Participants completed reporting proficiency, interpreter use, comfort using in range scenarios. Clinical scenarios were grouped analyzed degree complexity. Self-reported was compared tested as measured 20-minute...
To measure the impact of an objective evaluation provider Spanish-language skills on self-reported language proficiency and comfort using Spanish in a range clinical scenarios.We enrolled pediatric residents with any ability from 3 residency programs. Participants completed baseline survey, testing, posttest survey. We gathered demographics, ability, various scenarios, which were grouped analyzed by degree complexity. Between surveys, testing service administered 20-minute, telephone-based...
Prior to the widespread adoption of arterial switch operation, patients with transposition great arteries (TGA) commonly underwent atrial operation (Mustard or Senning). It is not uncommon for these progress end stage heart failure and increasingly ventricular assist devices (VADs) are used support as a bridge transplantation, though there limited experience this worldwide. A retrospective review our institution's VAD database was undertaken revealed seven adult history TGA subsequent...
Objective The objective was to assess whether race/ethnicity is an independent predictor of failure rescue (FTR) after orthotopic heart transplantation (OHT). Summary Background Data Outcomes following OHT vary by patient level factors; for example, non-White patients have worse outcomes than White OHT. Failure important factor associated with cardiac surgery outcomes, but its relationship demographic factors unknown. Methods Using the United Network Organ Sharing database, we included all...
BackgroundHeart failure–related cardiogenic shock (HF-CS) is increasingly common. Moderate/severe functional mitral regurgitation (FMR) commonly seen in patients presenting with decompensated heart failure and associated worse outcomes. Percutaneous mechanical circulatory support devices are used to provide hemodynamic for ongoing CS. There no description of the impact Impella device on response when combination preexisting FMR.MethodsRetrospective review aged ≥18 years, who underwent 5.5...
Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is a recognized treatment method for high-risk patients with stenosis. TAVI also recommended structural degeneration of biological prosthesis. TAVI-specific complications, such as prosthesis embolization and dissection, are uncommon but potential concerns. A 73-year-old woman presented 14 years after root replacement bioprosthetic valved conduit. The patient underwent valve-in-valve under monitored anaesthesia care. Intraoperatively, the...
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a global pandemic increasingly encountered in the clinical setting. It typically manifests as respiratory illness, although cardiac involvement common and portends worse prognosis. We present case of 56-year-old male admitted with COVID-19 fulminant myocarditis cardiogenic shock. discuss important aspects multidisciplinary interventional care involved treating shock well likely mechanisms of, potential treatment for, myocarditis. The various pathways...
