This document summarizes acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). It discusses the epidemiology of ARDS, noting that it accounts for 10-15% of ICU admissions and around 20% of mechanically ventilated patients. The pathophysiology of ARDS involves injury to the alveoli leading to fluid filling and poor oxygenation of the lungs. The clinical timeline of ARDS progresses from edema formation and hyaline membranes to interstitial inflammation and potentially a fibroproliferative phase.CXR: Lung Mass - Mediastinal Mass

A 65-year-old male smoker presented with cough, chest pain, and breathlessness for 1 month with weight loss and loss of appetite. An x-ray showed a well-defined anterior mass that overlapped the hilum, indicating it was located in the anterior mediastinum. Differential diagnoses of anterior mediastinal masses include thymoma, teratoma, thyroid goiter or neoplasm, and lymphoma. The mass's location was identified as anterior mediastinal using the hilum overlay sign, where an anterior mass will overlap the main pulmonary arteries.Superior vena cava syndrome
Superior vena cava syndromerod prasad
油
The document discusses Superior Vena Cava Syndrome (SVCS), which results from obstruction of blood flow through the Superior Vena Cava (SVC). SVCS was first described in 1757 and was historically caused by non-malignant processes, but malignancy is now the most common cause. The obstruction causes venous congestion and symptoms like face/neck swelling, cough, and dilated chest veins. Treatment depends on symptom severity and the underlying cause, with stenting used for life-threatening cases and management of malignancy for non-emergency cases.ARDS
ARDSAnaMariaCrawfordMDMS

Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is defined by acute onset of bilateral lung infiltrates, respiratory failure not fully explained by heart failure, and a PaO2/FiO2 ratio below 200 for moderate to severe or below 300 for mild ARDS. Symptoms include tachypnea, dyspnea, and cyanosis. Chest X-rays show bilateral alveolar infiltrates. The Berlin definition from 2012 further categorized ARDS severity into mild, moderate, and severe based on oxygenation levels and positive end-expiratory pressure requirements. For resource-limited settings, the Kigali modification proposes using oxygen saturation measured by pulse oximetry instead of arterial blood gas measurements.Mac mahon venice ild pdf f

Stenotrophomonas maltophilia xanthomonas is a multidrug resistant, aerobic non fermentative negative bacillus that is an opportunistic pathogen, particularly a common coloniser of the respiratory tract in hospitalised patients. This hospital acquired organism emerged as an important nosocomial pathogen associated with high mortality rates. This case study is based on an elderly patient diagnosed with Type 2 Respiratory Failure, who was on mechanical ventilation and had multiple organisms found in ET minibal. The patient was treated with beta lactams, macrolide, carbapenem, antifungal and fluoroquinolone. The patient was then found to be hemodynamically and clinically stable.

HIV infection can directly infect lung cells and weaken the immune system's ability to fight pulmonary infections. Common lung manifestations of HIV/AIDS include opportunistic infections like Pneumocystis pneumonia, tuberculosis, and cytomegalovirus pneumonia. Chest imaging plays an important role in the diagnosis and management of these infections. On CT, Pneumocystis pneumonia typically appears as bilateral ground-glass opacity and septal thickening, while tuberculosis may show upper lobe cavitary lesions when CD4 counts are high and disseminated disease at low CD4 counts. Viral infections like CMV commonly cause ground-glass nodules in severely immunocompromised individuals.liver.pptx

Our aim is to present a rare cause of tricuspid valve infective endocarditis (IE) in grown-up age due to cerebrospinal fluid shunt-associated infection. A 32-year-old woman, with a history of hydrocephalus that was treated with ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunt at the age of 4, was admitted to a hospital due to fever. The VP shunt was replaced several times due to dysfunction and replaced with ventriculoatrial (VA) shunt 3 months before admission. Transesophageal echocardiogram revealed two separate VA catheters in the right atrium, with two floating echo formations, one attached to the tip of one catheter and the other to the anterior leaflet of tricuspid valve. Blood cultures grew methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus. Computed tomography scan showed bilateral pneumonia. The patient was treated with antibiotics followed by partial extraction of the VA shunt. After 8 weeks, the patient was discharged, without signs of infection. Two months later, she was readmitted due to fever, echocardiographic signs of catheter infection, and septic pulmonary embolization. Complete extraction of VA catheter was done and treatment was continued with antibiotics with complete recovery. Early diagnosis and optimal management that combines both conventional and surgical approaches is crucial for reducing the high embolic risk, risk of complications, and mortality risk.Carcinoma tongue ug class

Bone marrow transplantation involves replacing a patient's damaged or diseased bone marrow with healthy stem cells from bone marrow. It treats conditions such as leukemia, lymphoma, aplastic anemia, and others. The procedure requires a conditioning process using chemotherapy and/or radiation to prepare the body for the transplant, followed by infusion of the donor's stem cells and a recovery period requiring close monitoring for complications like infection and graft-versus-host disease.Acid base cases

A 58-year-old man presented with confusion following a head injury from a car accident. Tests revealed hyponatremia with low serum osmolality and high urine osmolality, consistent with SIADH (syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone). SIADH was likely caused by the head injury. The man was placed on fluid restriction and his sodium levels began to rise. He improved with treatment and was discharged when his sodium levels normalized.Dialysis session management

This document summarizes the case of a 47-year-old male undergoing hemodialysis who experienced a rapid deterioration during a dialysis session. The patient developed hypotension, dyspnea, vomiting, and pre-arrest symptoms. Upon examination, the patient displayed Beck's triad of findings, indicating possible cardiac tamponade. Echocardiography revealed a pericardial effusion requiring drainage. For future sessions, the dialysis prescription was modified to include more frequent vital sign monitoring, potential for heparin-free dialysis, and ECG monitoring throughout the session. Non-typical presentations of pericardial effusion can occur in hemodialysis patients, requiring rapid diagnosis andRecently uploaded (20)

Non-Invasive ICP Monitoring for Neurosurgeons
Non-Invasive ICP Monitoring for NeurosurgeonsDhaval Shukla
油
This presentation delves into the latest advancements in non-invasive intracranial pressure (ICP) monitoring techniques, specifically tailored for neurosurgeons. It covers the importance of ICP monitoring in clinical practice, explores various non-invasive methods, and discusses their accuracy, reliability, and clinical applications. Attendees will gain insights into the benefits of non-invasive approaches over traditional invasive methods, including reduced risk of complications and improved patient outcomes. This comprehensive overview is designed to enhance the knowledge and skills of neurosurgeons in managing patients with neurological conditions.
Invasive systems are commonly used for monitoring intracranial pressure (ICP) in traumatic brain injury (TBI) and are considered the gold standard. The availability of invasive ICP monitoring is heterogeneous, and in low- and middle-income settings, these systems are not routinely employed due to high cost or limited accessibility. The aim of this presentation is to develop recommendations to guide monitoring and ICP-driven therapies in TBI using non-invasive ICP (nICP) systems.
