Article Synopsis
- A study compared two weaning strategies for intubated COVID-19 patients experiencing acute respiratory failure: early extubation with immediate non-invasive ventilation (NIV) versus conventional weaning with spontaneous breathing trials (SBT).
- 121 patients were analyzed, revealing that early extubation reduced the duration of invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) to an average of 9 days compared to 11 days in the standard group (p=0.034).
- The early extubation strategy also led to significantly fewer extubation failures (18.2% vs. 45.5%) and reintubations (18.2% vs. 40%) without impacting trache
Objective: : To check the efficacy of a reverse thermosensitive gel (poloxamer P407) for intracoronary shunt sealing in off-pump coronary artery bypass surgery to stop residual bleeding from the shunt and avoid the use of blowers.
Methods: : Nineteen coronary anastomoses were performed on five patients who underwent off-pump coronary artery bypass surgery. Intracoronary shunting was adopted in all procedures.
Background: This study is a review of hepatitis C recurrence in patients undergoing an orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT); to verify how many patients HCV-positive before OLT confirm a persistent viremia after OLT and how many with viremia show hepatitis histological evidence.
Methods: Thirty consecutive patients, 24 males, median age 52.5 underwent OLT for posthepatitic C cirrhosis since January 1993 in the "Transplantation Center" of Genoa.
