The ulnar nerve is the second most commonly entrapped after median nerve. Although clinical evaluation and electrodiagnostic studies remain widely used for of neuropathy, advancements in imaging have led to increased utilization these newer / better techniques overall management neuropathy. Specifically, high-resolution ultrasonography peripheral nerves as well MRI has become quite useful evaluating order guide treatment. caliber fascicular pattern identified normal are important...
Abstract Background Hospital-acquired pneumonia (HAP) and ventilator-associated (VAP) can be serious complications of coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19). Co-infections may worsen outcomes prolong hospitalization. This risk exacerbated by systemic corticosteroids (steroids) other adjunctive therapies. Methods We reviewed the records all adults admitted to Stony Brook University Hospital, NY, from 3/1 4/15, 2020 with severe COVID-19 pneumonia, requiring high-flow O2 (non-rebreather mask, Venturi...
INTRODUCTION: Primary Cesarean sections (CD) pose greater risks of mortality and morbidity than vaginal delivery for nulliparous, term, singleton, vertex (NTSV) women. There is 15 fold variation in NTSV cesareans US hospitals, suggesting an opportunity change at the institutional level. In January 2016, Stony Brook started a QI initiative (QI-i) to lower rate CD via grand rounds education identifying active labor as 6 cm dilation, encouraging optimal patient positioning promote progress...
Introduction: The value of N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) in hospitalized patients with severe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is unclear. Hypothesis: Elevated NT-proBNP associated worse prognosis COVID-19 regardless history HF. Methods: We evaluated the in-hospital course 469 adults admitted to Stony Brook University Hospital, NY, from March 1 April 15, 2020 pneumonia (need for high-flow O 2 ). excluded who required mechanical ventilation (MV) or died within 24h...
Abstract Background Systemic corticosteroids (steroids) have been empirically used in acute respiratory distress syndrome, an entity also present coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19). Early steroids administration could accelerate resolution of symptoms and reduce intensive care unit (ICU) stay these patients, but practice varies widely as evidence is scant. Methods We reviewed the records 498 adults admitted to Stony Brook University Hospital, NY, from 3/1 4/15, 2020 with COVID-19 requiring...
Abstract Background Coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19) leading to acute respiratory distress syndrome is associated with need for intensive care (IC), mechanical ventilation (MV), and prolonged recovery. These patients are thus predisposed blood stream infections which can worsen outcomes. This risk may be aggravated by adjunctive therapies. Methods We reviewed the medical records of all adults admitted Stony Brook University Hospital, NY, from March 1 April 15, 2020 severe COVID-19 pneumonia...
Introduction: Angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) 2, is a co-receptor for the entry of SARS-CoV-2 into target cells. The impact ACE inhibitors (ACEIs) and angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) on outcomes in patients with coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19) under investigation. Hypothesis: ACEIs/ARBs are associated worse hospitalized COVID-19. Methods: We evaluated in-hospital course 469 adults admitted to Stony Brook University Hospital, NY, from March 1 April 15, 2020 severe COVID-19...
