Abstract Background Pulmonary hernia is a rare condition characterized by the protrusion of lung tissue through chest wall defect. Trauma and thoracic surgery are most common causes acquired hernias. We present an unusual case (sequential) bilateral herniation with parenchymal infarction after lobar transplantation. Case presentation A 50-year-old female, wait-listed as high-urgency candidate, body mass index (BMI) 29 kg/m 2 underwent transplantation for pulmonary fibrosis clamshell...
Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis is a rare disorder that characterized by large accumulation of lipoproteinaceous material within the alveoli. This causes respiratory failure due to restriction gas exchange and changes in ventilation/perfusion ratio. Clinical symptoms are variable depend on severity damage lung parenchyma. Treatment method whole-lung lavage, where accumulated removed using quantities saline. case report describes 45 year old patient with advanced pulmonary proteinosis. Due...
Objectives: The aim of the study was to obtain data on demands intensive care capacities treat COVID-19 patients, and identify predictors for in-hospital mortality. Methods: prospective observational multicentre carried out from 1 March till 30 June 2020 included adult patients with confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection respiratory failure requiring ventilatory support or high-flow nasal oxygen therapy (HFNO). Results: Seventy-four 46 males 28 females, median age 67.5 (Q1-Q3: 56-75) years, were...
Purpose: Cardiac surgery in octogenarians with severely deteriorated functional status is increasingly common, but outcome data are still limited. The aim of this study was to compare postoperative outcome, survival, and quality life low-, medium-, high-risk undergoing cardiac surgery.
Abstract OBJECTIVES The prevalence of infectious endocarditis (IE) in intravenous drug users (IDUs) is increasing, and the number patients who need surgery also rising. Relatively little known about short-term long-term outcomes these operations. METHODS This study a retrospective analysis our institutional results, focussing on risk factors for perioperative death, major adverse events survival. A total 50 66 (75.75%) had postoperative follow-up, mean follow-up time was 53.9 ± 9.66 months....
Lung transplantation is considered an established treatment for patients with end-stage chronic respiratory failure. Patients acute failure requiring support invasive mechanical ventilation while awaiting lung are at high risk of death. Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) has been proposed as alternative bridging strategy to ventilation. The shear stress created by the pumps causes changes in hematological system almost all treated ECMO. An antithrombotic mitigate ECMO bleeding and...
The primary objective of the study was to investigate perceptions Czech secondary and university students regarding independence in tasks involving multiple repetitions random events their understanding conditional probability. employed a sample 43 students, ranging age from 15 23, who engaged think-aloud interviews. selection eight based on existing literature.A qualitative analysis interview transcripts established that encountered difficulties comprehending concepts probability,...
Echokardiografie je rutinně používanou metodou také v diagnostice nitrosrdečních útvarů. Dvourozměrné zobrazení rychle se pohybujících patologických struktur uvnitř srdečních oddílů přináší řadu specifických problémů a limitací. Jejich ne vždy ideální při standardním ultrazvukovém vyšetřování doposud představuje určitou výzvu, neboť chybný závěr nesprávná diagnóza mohou mít pro osud nemocného vážné důsledky. Podle teoretických předpokladů by trojrozměrná echokardiografie reálném čase mohla...
