An Integrated Prehospital Point‐of‐Care Lung Ultrasound Protocol for Patients with Dyspnea

open access: yesJournal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.
We present a time‐efficient, clinically integrated lung ultrasound protocol tailored for prehospital use by providers not yet routinely using ultrasound. Specifically designed to support the recognition of pneumothorax and interstitial syndrome, the protocol emphasizes operational feasibility, spectrum‐based diagnostic reasoning, and strict time ...

Ultrasound‐Guided Liposomal vs. Conventional Bupivacaine Erector Spinae Plane Block Plus Gabapentin for Postherpetic Neuralgia

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study aimed to compare efficacy and safety of ultrasound‐guided erector spinae plane block (ESPB) using liposomal (LB) versus conventional bupivacaine (CB), each plus standardized gabapentin, in patients with postherpetic neuralgia (PHN). A total of 116 PHN patients were randomized to ESPB‐LB or ESPB‐CB; both groups received standardized ...

Tracheostomy vs. Delayed Extubation in Head and Neck Reconstruction: A Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
High volume centers are trialing delayed extubation as an alternative management approach to tracheostomy in patients undergoing head and neck reconstruction (HNR). This systematic review shows that patients in the delayed extubation group are four times less likely to suffer an airway complication (p = 0.295) and eight times less likely to suffer a ...

Rare But Risky: Clinical Impacts of Pneumothorax After Thyroidectomy and Parathyroidectomy

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Postoperative pneumothorax (PPTX) is rare after thyroidectomy or parathyroidectomy, occurring in up to 0.10% of cases. However, it is associated with increased risks of all‐cause mortality, adverse respiratory events, and healthcare utilization rates in up to 1 year after surgery, deeming PPTX as a potential marker of increased postoperative ...

Pneumothorax triggered by EGFR‐tyrosine kinase inhibitors in three microwave ablation candidates: A review of the literature

open access: yesThoracic Cancer, 2020
Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are widely used in patients with EGFR‐mutant lung cancer. Meanwhile, thermal ablation such as microwave ablation has been an option for selected patients. Herein, we describe three
