Article Synopsis
- A national registry for congenital heart disease (CHD) in Canada aims to streamline research, cut costs, and enhance statistical power by automatically identifying CHD patients from existing clinical data.
- This project successfully extracted data from 885,287 echocardiogram reports and 70,121 clinical records, identifying over 43,000 children and nearly 5,000 fetuses with CHD.
- The initial registry in Québec demonstrates the potential for a centralized, user-friendly database that can support various CHD research projects and potentially expand to a national level.
Background: Central neurogenic hyperventilation (CNH) is increasingly reported in conscious patients with a CNS neoplasm. We aimed to synthesize the available data on the treatment of this condition to guide clinicians in their approach.
Methods: We describe the case of a 39-year-old conscious woman with CNH secondary to glioma brainstem infiltration for whom hyperventilation was aborted with hydromorphone, dexamethasone, and brainstem radiotherapy.
