<h3>Importance</h3> Hospitalized patients with COVID-19 are at risk for venous and arterial thromboembolism death. Optimal thromboprophylaxis dosing in high-risk is unknown. <h3>Objective</h3> To evaluate the effects of therapeutic-dose low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) vs institutional standard prophylactic or intermediate-dose heparins hospitalized COVID-19. <h3>Design, Setting, Participants</h3> The HEP-COVID multicenter randomized clinical trial recruited adult D-dimer levels more than...
Socioeconomic status (SES) is defined as an individual's social or economic standing, and a measure of family's position rank in group. It composite several measures including income, education, occupation, location residence housing. Studies have found lower SES has been linked to disproportionate access health care many diseases. There emerging data pulmonary diseases such COPD, asthma, cystic fibrosis, hypertension other chronic respiratory conditions that allude similar observation noted...
Objective The study aims to describe the clinical characteristics and outcomes of patients with COVID-19 related acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) who developed pneumothorax. Design setting A retrospective chart review was performed electronic medical record. Patients were included if they identified as having confirmed well pneumothorax from March 16, 2020 May 31, 2020. Patients' demographic characteristics, mechanical ventilator parameters, lung compliance measurements during...
Abstract Background Pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) decreases rehospitalization for people with COPD. However, less than 2% receive PR, partly due to lack of referral and sparsity PR facilities. This disparity is particularly pronounced in African American Hispanic persons Telehealth-provided could increase access improve health outcomes. Methods We applied the RE-AIM framework a post-hoc analysis our mixed methods RCT comparing Telehealth-delivered (TelePR) versus standard (SPR) COPD patients...
To describe the clinical characteristics and outcomes of patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) who developed pneumatosis intestinalis (PI).This case series was conducted in intensive care units at two large tertiary centers within Northwell Health System, located New York State. Patients were included if they identified as having confirmed COVID-19 well from March 16, 2020 to July 31, 2020. Patient demographics, characteristics, vasopressor use, anticoagulation opiate paralytic...
Introduction Treatment with dexamethasone reduces mortality in patients coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pneumonia requiring supplemental oxygen, but the optimal dose has not been determined. Objective To determine whether weight-based of 0.2 mg/kg is superior to 6 mg daily reducing 28-day COVID-19 and hypoxemia. Materials methods A multicenter, open-label, randomized clinical trial was conducted between March 2021 December at seven hospitals within Northwell Health. total 142 confirmed...
Coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) has been associated with significant risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE), arterial (ATE), and mortality particularly among hospitalized patients critical illness elevated D-dimer (Dd) levels. Conflicting data have yet to elucidate optimal thromboprophylaxis dosing. HEP-COVID (NCT04401293) is a phase 3, multicenter, pragmatic, prospective, randomized, pseudo-blinded, active control trial evaluate efficacy safety therapeutic-dose low-molecular-weight...
Chylothorax, which is defined as the presence of chyle in pleural space, often caused by malignancy. However, chylothorax a result underlying CLL exceedingly rare literature. Chyle contains fat soluble vitamins and lymphocytes, meaning that its collection into space may further exacerbate immunosupressed state an individual with CLL. Here, we report three cases patients who developed chylothorax, their management. although CLL, should be considered differential diagnosis when present...
We describe a rare and remarkable transformation of an immature mediastinal teratoma into high-grade angiosarcoma in 21-year-old male. Mediastinal teratomas, particularly ones, are exceedingly rare, representing small fraction germ cell tumors (GCTs). Our case describes the clinical journey patient, who initially presented with acute chest pain was subsequently diagnosed following imaging studies elevated tumor markers. Despite initial positive response to cisplatin-based chemotherapy,...
