Successful support by veno‐arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation for severe septic shock caused by Aeromonas hydrophila

Acute Medicine & Surgery, 2019
Background Septic shock is a subset of sepsis accompanied by profound circulatory and cellular metabolism abnormalities. Although veno‐arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA‐ECMO) can provide temporary cardiac support to improve organ perfusion,

Extracorporeal life support in pediatric cardiac dysfunction [PDF]

, 2010
Background: Low cardiac output (LCO) after corrective surgery remains a serious complication in pediatric congenital heart diseases (CHD). In the case of refractory LCO, extra corporeal life support (ECLS) extra corporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) or ...

‘You can't have an ego in this game’: A simulation primed qualitative inquiry of team reflection in paediatrics

Medical Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Acute care paediatric teams face ambiguous, dynamic patient care situations that demand adaptability to avoid patient harm. Team huddles and adaptation processes have shown promise in mitigating risk and reducing harm. One team process that may occur in huddles is team reflection (TR), defined as a team's capacity to consciously ...

Impact of Doxycycline Prophylaxis on Reducing Ureaplasma and Mycoplasma‐Related Complications in Lung Transplant Recipients

Transplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.
Doxycycline prophylaxis in lung transplant recipients was associated with reduced hyperammonemia syndrome and shorter ventilation, ICU, and hospital stays. These findings suggest that doxycycline prophylaxis may help prevent Ureaplasma/Mycoplasma‐related morbidity.

Comparative 3‐Year Allograft Outcomes for Recipients of Kidneys From SARS‐CoV‐2 NAT‐Positive Donors

Transplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.
In this retrospective single‐center study of 220 kidney transplants from SARS‐CoV‐2 NAT+, NAT+ with COVID as cause of death (CoV‐COD) and NATneg donors, we found no significant difference in rejection or kidney pathologies at 1 year, and death, graft loss, or eGFR at 3 years by CoV‐donor status.

An Update on Invasive Fungal Infections in Solid Organ Transplant Recipients

Transplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Invasive fungal infections (IFI) remain a significant infection‐related complication in solid organ transplant recipients (SOTRs), the incidence of which has not changed overtime. With a focus on studies and data published after 2019, this narrative review provides an update on the epidemiology and prevention of IFIs in SOTRs and highlights ...

Transfusion‐related alpha‐gal syndrome: Two new cases expanding the demographic and geographic spectrum, and evidence of a diagnostic gap in allergic transfusion reaction evaluation

Transfusion, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Transfusion‐related alpha‐gal syndrome (TRAGS) has recently been proposed as a cause of allergic transfusion reactions (ATRs) in which alpha‐gal‐specific IgE in sensitized group O (or potentially group A) recipients reacts with epitopes on group B or AB plasma‐containing components.
