Sepsis is a severe and often life-threatening condition which can lead to widespread organ dysfunction, septic shock, even death. Antimicrobials are critical in improving outcomes for patients with sepsis. This chapter details the general principles of antimicrobial therapy, appropriate selection de-escalation antimicrobials, challenges stewardship.
Sepsis and septic shock are major health conditions in the United States, with a high incidence mortality. The Surviving Campaign, which was formed 2002, formulates guidelines for management of severe sepsis has actually demonstrated reduction mortality institution "sepsis bundles." Despite this, some elements have been questioned, recent data suggest that strict compliance bundles protocols may not be necessary. Still, prompt recognition treatment remain utmost importance.
Venous thromboembolism is the formation of a blood clot in vein. It mainly consists 2 life-threatening conditions-deep venous thrombosis and pulmonary embolism. Deep potentially dangerous condition with grave sequelae, worst which can also lead to multiple other conditions significant morbidity mortality that include extension thrombi, hypertension, recurrence, postthrombotic syndrome. An update on epidemiology, etiology, pathogenesis will be reviewed this article.
Upper and lower extremity deep venous thrombosis (DVT) is defined as a blood clot within the veins of affected extremities. These clots can either occur spontaneously or be associated with specific risk factors. Regardless cause, DVT significant morbidity mortality has potential for lethal complications. The most notable complication development pulmonary embolism from DVT. As studies have reported, more than 90% acute emboli arise proximal veins. Venous thromboembolism also economic burden...
First successfully described in 1967, acute respiratory distress syndrome has since garnered much interest and debate. Extensive studies clinical trials have been carried out efforts to address the associated high mortality; however, it remains a significant burden on health care. Despite heterogeneous etiologies that lead development of syndrome, this rapidly progressing form failure, characterized by severe hypoxemia nonhydrostatic pulmonary edema, recognizable pattern lung injury. In...
Introduction: Percutaneous embolectomy using the percutaneous large-bore aspiration FlowTriever system (INARI Medical, Irvine, CA, USA) is a promising method for reducing high clot burden in patients with intermediate- to high-risk pulmonary embolism (PE). Case Description: A 45-year-old woman PE underwent intervention retrieval/aspiration system. After procedure, she experienced several cardiac arrests from pericardial tamponade and required pericardiocentesis, leading haemodynamic...
Trauma in pregnancy can range from a mild injury, such as fall standing height, to major involving penetrating injury or high force motor vehicle collision. Providing care pregnant patient with trauma presents unique challenge 2 patients are at risk for complications, that is, the mother and fetus, both of whom require evaluation management. Health professionals should be aware prepared manage complications pregnancy, given its significant associated morbidity mortality. This article details...
This article describes the various steps required to confirm diagnosis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The GOLD Criteria developed by Global Initiative for COPD will be outlined as they relate and management COPD. Pulmonary function testing, imaging, symptom assessment explored.
Acute liver failure (ALF) is a rare but life-threatening disease process that can result in rapidly progressive encephalopathy, elevated intracranial pressure, and multiorgan failure. In the United States, 2 most common causes of ALF intensive care unit (ICU) are acetaminophen overdose hypoxic-ischemic hepatopathy. Less include alcoholic hepatitis, nonacetaminophen drug-induced injury, acute viral Wilson's disease, autoimmune fatty pregnancy. Unfortunately, there many cases which cause...
In this article, we discuss the literature behind use of paralytics, sedation, and steroids in acute respiratory distress syndrome. We explore controversies recommendations for these agents.
