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

open access: yesCase 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

Response to comment on “Oestrogen-induced angiogenesis and implantation contribute to the development of parasitic myomas after laparoscopic morcellation”

open access: yesReproductive Biology and Endocrinology, 2017
According to the literature review, CO2 insufflation on parasitic myoma implantation is not well studied, and we concur that our study is related to “Morcellation-induced parasitic myomas.” We did not compare CO2 insufflation to non-insufflation in our ...

Foreign body ingestions in children and adolescents: A position paper of the European Society for Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology, and Nutrition (ESPGHAN) endoscopy special interest group

open access: yesJournal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract Foreign body (FB) ingestion is a relatively frequent occurrence in the pediatric population with multiple potential sequelae. Appropriate intervention may range from urgent endoscopic retrieval to watchful waiting, with multiple variables influencing the decision.

Carbon dioxide insufflation is superior to air insufflation during endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography: A randomized trial

open access: yesJournal of Digestive Endoscopy, 2016
Background: Carbon dioxide (CO2) insufflation has been shown to be superior to air insufflation in colonoscopy, and double balloon enteroscopy. However, the value of CO2 insufflation in endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is not ...

Laparoscopic Methylene Blue Photodynamic Therapy for Intraabdominal Infection: A Preclinical Feasibility Study in a Rabbit Model of Perforated Appendicitis

open access: yesLasers in Surgery and Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives Perforated appendicitis commonly results in intra‐abdominal infection requiring prolonged antibiotic therapy. Intraoperative antimicrobial adjuncts are limited, and photodynamic therapy (PDT) may provide a targeted, resistance‐independent approach.

Improving enteral nutrition in patients requiring neurological intensive care unit care: A retrospective study on a novel bedside nasointestinal tube placement technique

open access: yesNutrition in Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background This study aimed to develop and assess a bedside nasojejunal tube placement technique designed for resource‐limited settings to address the specific challenges of enteral nutrition (EN) delivery in neurocritical care patients, particularly those at high risk of reflux and aspiration. The technique sought to overcome the drawbacks of

Carbon Dioxide versus Room Air for Colonoscopy: a Single Center Study [PDF]

open access: yesAfro-Egyptian Journal of Infectious and Endemic Diseases
Background and study aim: Abdominal pain and bloating sensations can occur after colonoscopy. Theoretically, a faster rate of absorption is expected to reduce abdominal pain and bloating when using carbon dioxide (CO2).

Otovent Versus Valsalva: Physiological Insights for Diagnostic and Therapeutic Autoinflation in Eustachian Tube Dysfunction

open access: yesOtolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Autoinflation aids assessment of Eustachian tube function, or as a conservative treatment for obstructive Eustachian tube dysfunction. This study compares the physiological characteristics of 2 autoinflation techniques, the Otovent® device and the Valsalva manoeuvre, to inform clinical application for both diagnosis and therapy ...
