This was a prospective, single-center study evaluating the efficacy and cost-effectiveness of early ambulation (within 30 min) following femoral artery closure with ProGlide® suture-mediated vascular device (PD) in patients undergoing diagnostic cardiac catheterization compared manual compression.It is unclear whether ProGlide safe or associated patient satisfaction cost savings as compression (MC).Inclusion criteria were met 170 (85 PD 85 MC patients). Patients ambulated 20 ft. within min...
Purpose RNA interference (RNAi)-based therapies that target specific gene products have impacted clinical medicine with 16 FDA approved drugs. RNAi therapy focused on reducing plasma lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] levels are under evaluation. Findings RNAi-based made significant progress over the past 2 decades and currently consist of antisense oligonucleotides (ASO) small interfering (siRNA). Chemical modification backbone conjugation siRNA enables efficient silencing in hepatocytes allowing...
Pleuropericarditis is a common clinical entity that has been reported in association with several diseases. However, pleuropericarditis following blunt thoracic trauma very rare and difficult to diagnose. Here we present case of young man who presented the emergency department acute shortness breath motor vehicle accident. He was found have pleuro-pericardial communication worsened by barotrauma, resulting tension pneumopericardium.
Introduction: Early recognition of cardiac arrest with bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), and early defibrillation when appropriate, can improve outcomes after Out Hospital Cardiac Arrest (OHCA). Data from the national registries indicate there are both regional as well racial ethnic differences in rates CPR witnessed OHCA cases significantly lower non-white persons. However, Hispanic border populations underrepresented these studies. University Medical Center (UMC) El Paso,...
Objective: Osteoarthritis is a chronic and degenerative disease that commonly affects the knee joint. The effectiveness of using PRP injections in joint for managing osteoarthritis symptoms, which include pain, disability, deformity, reduced quality life, being studied. Methods: This two-year prospective study conducted between January 2019 December 2020 at Government General Hospital Kurnool. focused on management 60 patients who received 3 ml autologous intra-articular platelet-rich plasma...
We report a patient with ictal asystole in which the diagnosis took long time to be confirmed despite early suspicion and investigation. Clinical features leading implications of this are discussed. A 59-year-old man was referred following several episodes sudden collapse & an episode confusion automatisms without collapse. There witnessed history loss postural tone, fall from height, pallor rigidity. examination unremarkable. Investigations including CT Brain, EEG 24 h ECG were complex...
Background: Patients presenting with Cocaine associated chest pain are typically younger than patients traditional risk factors but at for accelerated Coronary artery disease. Radiation exposure modes of stress testing such as CT or SPECT, makes it concerning especially in young females childbearing age group cocaine pain. Stress echocardiography avoids radiation exposure, is more cost effective, saves time and adds to diagnostic information However, safety has not been well studied positive...
Background: Chest pain is one of the most common reasons for Emergency Department (ED) visits and centers (CPC) improve efficiency by triaging low intermediate risk patients more effectively. We examined Length stay (LOS) in CPC utility stress testing further stratification during visit using a Bayesian analysis. Based on this analysis we suggest some performance improvement measures which may reduce costs efficiency. Methods: conducted retrospective evaluated our 2011. For each patient pre...
