( Anesth Analg . 2024;139(3):e23–e25. doi:10.1213/ANE.0000000000007100) The venous excess ultrasound score (VExUS) offers essential information about disorders and their relevance for tailored treatment in preeclampsia. Historically, preeclampsia has been defined as a multisystem condition caused by endothelial dysfunction, frequently leading to pulmonary edema heightened capillary permeability. Nonetheless, new evidence emphasizes the importance of cardiac function, intrinsic volume...

Background Preclinical studies suggest that ketamine stimulates breathing. We investigated whether adding a infusion at low and high doses to propofol sedation improves inspiratory flow enhances in spontaneously breathing critically ill patients. Methods In this prospective interventional study, twelve intubated, patients received infusions 5 mcg/kg/min, followed by 10 mcg/kg/min for 1 h each. Airway flow, pressure, esophageal pressure were recorded during spontaneous trial (SBT) baseline,...

BACKGROUND: We developed and implemented a perioperative guideline for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), comprising preoperative screening tool (BOSTN) clinical management pathways. OSA was suspected with 2 or more of the following: body mass index ≥30 kg/m , observed apnea, loud snoring, daytime tiredness, neck circumference ≥16.5 inches in women ≥ 17.5 men. The primary objective this study to assess association between high BOSTN scores requirement invasive mechanical ventilation after...

Abstract Background Severe tricuspid regurgitation (TR) is a complex condition that can be difficult to treat medically, and often surgical intervention prohibited due the high morbidity mortality associated with this intervention. In patients who have failed maximal medical therapy progressive symptoms related their severe TR, heterotopic caval valve implantation (CAVI) offers potential for symptom relief these patients. Case summary We present two cases of TR heart failure were refractory...

Despite advancements in left ventricular assist device (LVAD) technology, numerous complications continue to be associated with these devices. The interactions between LVADs and other electronic devices the effects of electrostatic discharge (ESD) are not well established. This study reports a rare case ESD causing pump malfunction an implantable LVAD.

This case describes a patient who underwent mitral valve replacement (MVR) surgery with preservation of the subvalvular apparatus suffered anterolateral papillary muscle rupture (PMR) postseparation from cardiopulmonary bypass. had no history coronary artery disease (CAD); subsequent pathology showed evidence amyloid deposition. Although most PMRs are caused by ischemia CAD, cardiac amyloidosis must be considered in absence CAD and worked up appropriately as involvement amyloidosis,...
