Anesthesia Approach to Managing Severe Hemorrhagic Shock and Anemia With Non-transfusion Alternatives in a Practicing Jehovah's Witness: A Case Report.

Traumatic hemorrhagic shock is a common yet life-threatening occurrence across the United States and is typically managed with blood transfusions as the standard of care. However, providers caring for a Jehovah's Witness patient who refuses transfusions due to religious reasons face unique ethical challenges in upholding evidence-based shock resuscitation protocols while respecting the patient's autonomy and faith-based stance that strictly prohibits blood products. We present a complex clinical case of a 46-year-old Jehovah's Witness who developed severe hemorrhagic shock, partial amputation, and critical anemia after a traumatic 40-mile-per-hour motorcycle collision resulting in comminuted fractures and arterial disruption.

Interaction of Pristine Hydrocalumite-Like Layered Double Hydroxides with Carbon Dioxide.

The layered double hydroxides (LDHs) of Ca and trivalent cations, Al and Fe, are single-source precursors to generate supported CaO, which picks up CO from the gas phase in the temperature range 350-550 °C. The supports are ternary oxides, mayenite, and CaFeO. The uptake capacity of the Fe-containing LDH at 1.
