Diplopia in a patient presenting with "blurred vision": a case report.

Background: Myasthenia gravis is an autoimmune condition affecting the neuromuscular junction and causing muscle weakness along with fatigue (myasthenia). When the clinical manifestations of myasthenia gravis are isolated to the eye muscles, only causing weak eye movements, it is referred to as ocular myasthenia gravis, which can mimic a 1 and ½ syndrome.

Case Presentation: An African-American female in her fifties with past medical history of hypertension presented to our outpatient clinic with complaints of blurred vision for two weeks.

Incidence of Barotrauma in COVID-19 Patients Requiring Mechanical Ventilation: A Retrospective Study in a Community Hospital.

Background and aim Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a severe complication of COVID-19 and traditional ventilation strategies using ARDSNet protocol, including low tidal volumes, appear to cause barotrauma in COVID-19 patients at a higher rate than non-COVID-19 ARDS patients. The purpose of our study was to determine if COVID-19 patients with ARDS undergoing mechanical ventilation at St. Joseph's Medical Center (SJMC) developed barotrauma at a higher rate than non-COVID-19 ARDS patients.
