METHODS: A scripted telephone survey was developed from 2000 United States Census by a panel experts. Contact attempted at least twice all listed surgery Hospital University Pennsylvania over 4-mo period. RESULTS: Three thousand seven hundred thirty-nine...
Abstract Treatment for rib fracture pain can be broadly divided into pharmacologic approaches with oral and/or parenteral medication and interventional utilizing neuraxial analgesia or peripheral nerve blocks to provide relief. Both attempt control nociceptive neuropathic secondary osseous injury insult, respectively. Success of treatment is ultimately measured by the ability selected modality decrease pain, chest splinting, prevent sequelae injury, such as pneumonia. Typically, opioids...
A 36-yr-old man with a medical history significant for anabolic steroid abuse initially presented to the operating room aortic valve endocarditis focal perforation of anterior leaflet mitral secondary prolapsing vegetation. The patient underwent uneventful replacement 25 mm On-X (MCRI, Austin, TX) mechanical and repair bovine pericardial patch. Throughout procedure, he received intermittent retrograde cardioplegia via coronary sinus catheter that was placed without difficulty under...
Aortic insufficiency following left ventricular assist device implantation (LVAD) has been reported in up to 40% of patients and is associated with a worse prognosis. We describe the case successful transfemoral transcatheter aortic valve replacement self-expanding bioprosthesis for destination LVAD implantation.
Abstract OBJECTIVES Type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) is a frequent comorbidity among patients suffering from advanced heart failure necessitating left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implant. The goal of this study was to evaluate the impact type DM on early and long-term outcomes following an LVAD METHODS We performed observational cohort in large tertiary care centre Israel. All data who underwent continuous flow implant between 2006 2020 were extracted our departmental database. Patients...
Severe respiratory failure caused by COVID-19 often requires mechanical ventilation, including extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). In rare cases, lung transplantation (LTx) may be considered as a last resort. However, uncertainties remain about patient selection and optimal timing for referral listing. This retrospective study analyzed patients with severe who were supported veno-venous ECMO listed LTx between July 2020 June 2022. Out of the 20 in population, four underwent excluded....
Abstract Background Diabetes mellitus (DM) type 2 is an independent risk factor for atrial fibrillation (AF). Surgical ablation or "maze procedure" option patients with AF undergoing concomitant isolated cardiac surgery. The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact DM on early and long-term outcomes following surgical ablation. Methods We performed observational cohort in Israel’s largest tertiary care center. All data who underwent ablation, between 2006 2021 were extracted from our...
With the growing number of left ventricular assist device (LVAD) recipients requiring non-cardiac surgery and limited availability cardiac anesthesiologists, our study reviewed surgeries in HeartMate III patients with LVAD at institution. We focused on anesthesiologist roles, detailing patient characteristics, anesthetic management, outcomes identifying improvement opportunities this specialized care setting. A retrospective chart review was conducted all who underwent institution between...
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) is a frequent co-morbidity among patients suffering from infective endocarditis (IE). The aim of the study was to evaluate impact type DM on early-, intermediate- and long-term mortality who underwent surgical treatment endocarditis.
