Women With Low Falls Are Less Likely To Be Admitted to a Specialist Trauma Unit: A Single Centre Observational Study of Older Adults

ANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Undertriage of women with trauma is associated with preventable deaths. This project was developed to determine whether older women with trauma were less likely to be admitted to a specialist trauma unit. Methods The study was undertaken at a specialist, level one trauma service and included all people aged 65 and older admitted ...

Myeloid ACE2 protects against septic hypotension and vascular dysfunction through Ang-(1–7)-Mas-mediated macrophage polarization

Redox Biology
Angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) is a new identified member of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) that cleaves angiotensin II (Ang II) to Ang (1–7), which exerts anti-inflammatory and antioxidative activities via binding with Mas ...

Open-chest cardiopulmonary resuscitation versus closed-chest cardiopulmonary resuscitation in patients with cardiac arrest: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Scandinavian Journal of Trauma, Resuscitation and Emergency Medicine, 2019
Background Cardiopulmonary resuscitation is the most urgent and critical step in the rescue of patients with cardiac arrest. However, only about 10% of patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest survive to discharge.

Predictors of Brain Infarction in Pediatric Patients During Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation

Artificial Organs, EarlyView.
In 179 pediatric ECMO patients, brain infarction (BI) occurred in 28% and was linked to markedly higher 30‐day mortality. VA ECMO mode (vs. VV) and higher pre‐ECMO arterial lactate independently predicted BI, supporting standardized neuro‐monitoring and liberal early brain CT, especially for children on VA ECMO.

Hospital Costs Associated With Mechanical Left Ventricular Unloading Devices During VA ECMO for Adult Cardiogenic Shock

Artificial Organs, EarlyView.
In a cohort of patients with cardiogenic shock supported with V‐A ECMO, the addition of left ventricular mechanical unloading was associated with higher median hospitalization costs ($390 508 vs. $320 269), longer hospital length of stay (IRR 1.06, p < 0.001), and lower mortality compared with VA ECMO alone (HR 0.62, p = 0.006).

Impact of Gentamicin‐Impregnated Collagen Sponge on the Incidence of Access Related Infections After Full‐Support Microaxial Flow Pump Therapy

Artificial Organs, EarlyView.
Local application of gentamicin for wound closure after full‐support microaxial flow pump therapy. ABSTRACT Background Surgically implanted microaxial flow pumps (mAFP) are increasingly used for cardiogenic shock treatment. Standard mAFP explantation is performed bedside with a shortening of the vascular prosthesis, which may represent a potential ...
