Revisions to the heart allocation criteria in 2018 motivated an increased use of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) as a bridge transplantation. Studies have demonstrated inferior post-transplant outcomes patients bridged with ECMO but do not account for underlying diagnosis. Our objective was elucidate differential impact on by failure (HF) etiology. The United Network Organ Sharing database queried adults who underwent isolated transplantation after October 2018. Patients were...
A synthetic route to orthogonally protected, enantiomerically pure 2-substituted piperazines is described.
Abstract Background Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) has gained traction as a bridge to heart transplantation (HT) but remains associated with increased waitlist mortality. This study explores whether this risk is modified by underlying failure (HF) etiology. Methods Using the Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network registry, we conducted retrospective review of first‐time adult HT candidates from 2018 through 2022. Patients were categorized “ECMO”, if ECMO was utilized...
Myasthenia gravis (MG) is an antibody-mediated disorder that disrupts postsynaptic acetylcholine receptors with consequent fatigable weakness, bulbar symptoms, and respiratory fragility. MG patients can be challenging to manage during open abdominal surgery given the unpredictable efficacy of neuromuscular reversal agents risk precipitating crisis. Regional neuraxial anesthesia eliminates need for these endotracheal intubation. Here, we report case a 66-year-old male history advanced MG,...
We report the case of a 53-year-old male who developed polycompartment syndrome (PCS) secondary to cardiogenic shock. After suffering cardiac arrest, self-perpetuating cycle intra-abdominal hypertension (IAH) and vital organ damage led abdominal compartment (AbCS), which then contributed precipitation extremity (CS) in bilateral thighs, legs, forearms, hands. This is followed by review literature regarding pathophysiology this rare sequela While progression from shock AbCS ultimately PCS has...
