Difficult Management of a Double-Lumen Endotracheal Tube and Difficult Ventilation during Robotic Thymectomy with Carbon Dioxide Insufflation

Case Reports in Surgery, 2017
Robotic surgery with carbon dioxide (CO2) insufflation to the thorax is frequently performed to gain a better operative field of view, although its intraoperative complications have not yet been discussed in detail. We treated two patients with difficult

Prospective development and validation of an objective classification for difficult facemask ventilation: the MASCAN score

Anaesthesia, EarlyView.
Summary Introduction Difficult facemask ventilation is an entity that lacks a robust definition, leading to inconsistent identification in clinical practice and research. The aim of this study was to develop and validate an objective classification and numeric score for difficult facemask ventilation. Methods Four hundred patients who required tracheal

Invasive Assessment of Right Ventricular Dysfunction Predicts Periprocedural Outcomes in Patients Undergoing Unplanned Ventricular Tachycardia Ablation

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
Displays bar graphs showing outcome rates stratified by clinical and hemodynamic variables. Asterisks (*) denote statistically significant differences (p ≤ 0.05). “NS” indicates non‐significant comparisons. Percentages are shown above each bar. The top panel corresponds to acute kidney injury (blue bars), and the bottom panel corresponds to acute ...

Iatrogenic Colonic Perforation due to Computed Tomographic Colonography

Case Reports in Gastroenterology, 2015
Although the complications of computed tomographic colonography (CTC) are very rare, CTC is associated with potential risk of colonic perforation. In the present report we describe two cases of colonic perforation secondary to CTC. In the first case with

The Effect of Nexpowder in Reducing Post‐ESD Coagulation Syndrome in Proximal Colon Lesions: A Retrospective Multicenter Study

Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is an established curative treatment for lateral spreading tumors and early colorectal cancer, but it can cause procedure‐related complications such as post‐ESD coagulation syndrome (PECS), which may increase healthcare utilization, prolong hospitalization, and raise medical costs.

Is Routine Interruption of Direct Oral Anticoagulants Necessary during Colorectal Endoscopic Mucosal Resection and Hot Snare Polypectomy? A Multicenter Propensity‐Matched Study

Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Colorectal endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) and hot snare polypectomy (HSP) are high‐bleeding‐risk endoscopic procedures, and most clinical guidelines recommend stopping direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) temporarily or switching to heparin‐bridging therapy (HBT). However, existing evidence is largely derived from cohorts
