Article Synopsis
- Preventing rebleeding in aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is important, and lowering systolic blood pressure (SBP) may help, although evidence is not clear-cut.
- A systematic review analyzed ten studies, finding that higher SBP is linked to a greater chance of rebleeding, while maintaining SBP ≤160 mmHg reduced this risk significantly.
- The results should be approached cautiously due to variability in study designs, highlighting the need for more standardized future research to better understand blood pressure's role in rebleeding risk.
Fat embolism syndrome (FES) is one of the underdiagnosed and underrecognized complications that can happen in multiple medical and surgical conditions. FES can manifest in a broad spectrum of signs and symptoms and affect multiple organ systems in the human body. One of the most commonly involved is the central nervous system (CNS), mainly the brain, which can be involved in different ways, and the presenting symptoms can vary in type and severity.

The aim of this study is to describe the safety and efficacy of ketamine infusions in patients with refractory seizure without intubation.
Methods: We analyzed a retrospective cohort of adult patients who were not intubated at the time of initiation of a ketamine infusion for refractory seizures.
