Validity evidence of a resuscitation team leadership assessment measure for use in actual trauma resuscitations

AEM Education and Training, Volume 9, Issue 2, April 2025.
Abstract Background Team leadership is a critical skill in trauma resuscitation teams, linked to better teamwork and improved patient care. There are numerous published team leadership assessments, though data regarding the performance of these measures in patient care settings (vs. simulation‐based settings) remain limited.

Evaluation of performance of two different chest tubes with either a sharp or a blunt tip for thoracostomy in 100 human cadavers

Scandinavian Journal of Trauma, Resuscitation and Emergency Medicine, 2012
Background Emergent placement of a chest tube is a potentially life-saving procedure, but rate of misplacement and organ injury is up to 30%. In principle, chest tube insertion can be performed by using Trocar or Non-trocar techniques.

Autologous Blood Pleurodesis Through an Indwelling Pleural Catheter for the Management of Prolonged Air Leak in a Malignant Hydropneumothorax

Respirology Case Reports, Volume 13, Issue 4, April 2025.
Here we describe a novel management approach for persistent air‐leak in the setting of a malignant hydropneumothorax. Autologous blood pleurodesis via an indwelling pleuralcatheter appears to be a safe and effective treatment option for non‐surgical candidates and allows ongoing long‐term drainage of a malignant effusion and air leak.

Placement of a Customised Y‐Shaped Silicone Stent via the Transthoracic Approach for Closing a Large Bronchial Stump Fistula

Respirology Case Reports, Volume 13, Issue 3, March 2025.
We report on a novel method of using a silicone stent to occlude large bronchial stump fistula via a transthoracic approach rather than the conventional trans‐tracheal approach. ABSTRACT Bronchial stump fistula occurs at the site of a lobectomy or segmentectomy and is a specific type of bronchopleural fistula.
