Abstract Introduction Central venous cannulation is crucial in the management of critical care patient. This study was designed to evaluate whether real-time ultrasound-guided internal jugular vein superior standard landmark method. Methods In this randomised study, 450 patients who underwent were prospectively compared with whom technique used. Randomisation performed by means a computer-generated random-numbers table, and stratified regard age, gender, body mass index. Results There no...
Subclavian vein catheterization may cause various complications. We compared the real-time ultrasound-guided subclavian cannulation vs. landmark method in critical care patients.Prospective randomized study.Medical intensive unit of a tertiary medical center.Four hundred sixty-three mechanically ventilated patients enrolled controlled ISRCTN-registered trial (ISRCTN-61258470).We (200 patients) (201 using an infraclavicular needle insertion point all cases. Catheterization was performed under...
Abstract Introduction The optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) may be increased in brain-injured patients, especially children, with intracranial hypertension. We investigated whether measurements of ONSD correlated simultaneous noninvasive and invasive the pressure (ICP) adults. Methods Seventy-six critical care patients (58 males; 47 ± 18 years old) were included study. Fifty suffered from brain injury, whereas 26 had no pathology served as control individuals. Initially, evaluated...

Our aim was to investigate continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) with CytoSorb cartridge for patients life-threatening COVID-19 plus acute kidney injury (AKI), sepsis, respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), and cytokine release (CRS). Of 492 admitted our intensive care unit (ICU), 50 had AKI necessitating CRRT (10.16%) were enrolled in the study. Upon ICU admission, all AKI, ARDS, septic shock, CRS. In addition CytoSorb, received ARDS-net ventilation, prone positioning, empiric...
To perform a prospective longitudinal analysis of lung ultrasound findings in critically ill patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).Eighty-nine intensive care unit (ICU) confirmed COVID-19 were prospectively enrolled and tracked. Point-of-care (POCUS) examinations performed phased array, convex, linear transducers using portable machines. The thorax was scanned 12 areas: anterior, lateral, posterior (superior/inferior) bilaterally. Lower limbs for deep venous thrombosis chest...
The blood flow and the perfusion of pedicled anterolateral thigh (ALT) flap was evaluated in 11 patients with skin soft tissue defects by means color Doppler ultrasonography near-infrared spectroscopy, respectively. Also, authors assessed ability perforator to cover above defects. A proximally based used at lower abdominal wall (two patients), suprapubic area, penis greater trochanter lateral gluteal ischial tuberosity. distally exposed knee joint patients). Near-infrared spectroscopy...
Scarce data exist regarding the natural history of lung lesions detected on ultrasound in those who survive severe COVID‐19 pneumonia. Objective We performed a prospective analysis point‐of‐care (POCUS) findings critically ill patients during and after hospitalization. Methods enrolled 171 intensive care unit patients. POCUS lungs was with phased array (2–4 MHz), convex (2–6 MHz) linear (10–15 transducers, scanning 12 areas. Chest computed tomography angiography to exclude suspected...
Background . New sonographic quality criteria to optimize optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) measurements were suggested. The latter correlated elevated intracranial pressure (ICP) in traumatic brain injury (TBI). Aim We investigated whether ONSD simultaneous ICP severe TBI. Methods Forty patients with TBI (Marshall Scale ≥II and GCS ≤8) participated the study. All had an intraparenchymal catheter inserted, while was measured bilaterally, upon admission over next 48 hours, based on new...
Scarce data exist about the clinical features of COVID-19 in patients with concomitant active and/or latent tuberculosis (TB). This rare case-report outlines diagnosis, management and outcome a sixty year old hypertensive diabetic patient serious pneumonia underlying TB. The was treated successfully designated intensive care unit Saudi Arabia.
The purpose of the optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) research group project is to establish an individual patient-level database from high quality studies ONSD ultrasonography for detection raised intracranial pressure (ICP), and perform a systematic review patient data meta-analysis (IPDMA), which will provide cutoff value help physicians making decisions encourage further research. Previous meta-analyses were able assess diagnostic accuracy in detecting ICP but failed determine precise...
Abstract Background Fulminant (life-threatening) COVID-19 can be associated with acute respiratory failure (ARF), multi-system organ and cytokine release syndrome (CRS). We present a rare case of fulminant reverse-takotsubo-cardiomyopathy (RTCC) that improved therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE). Case presentation A 40 year old previous healthy male presented in the emergency room 4 days dry cough, chest pain, myalgias fatigue. He progressed to ARF requiring high-flow-nasal-cannula (flow: 60...
