Article Abstract
The purpose of this study was to compare the synovial fluid concentrations and pharmacokinetics of amikacin in the equine limb distal to the carpus following intraosseous and intravenous regional perfusion. The front limbs of 6 horses were randomly assigned to either intraosseous or intravenous perfusion. A tourniquet was placed distal to each carpus and the limb perfused with 500 mg of amikacin. Systemic blood samples and synovial fluid samples were collected over 70 min from the distal interphalangeal (DIP) joint, metacarpophalangeal joint, and digital flexor sheath. The tourniquet was removed following the 30 min sample collection. The mean peak amikacin concentration for the DIP joint was significantly higher with intravenous perfusion. There were no significant differences in time to peak concentration or elimination half-life between methods at each synovial structure. Each technique produced mean peak concentrations ranging from 5 to 50 times that of recommended peak serum concentrations for therapeutic efficacy.

Besides intravenous thrombolysis, endovascular therapy (EVT) is also a standard treatment option for acute ischemic stroke. The clinical efficacy and safety of this procedure was proven in 2015 by several randomized controlled trials. The aim of EVT is to achieve the fastest possible recanalization of an occluded artery supplying the brain and, thus, reperfusion of the brain tissue.

Myxoedema coma is a rare medical emergency, presenting even less commonly without sepsis and with the diagnosis of distributive shock. Reports of catecholamine-refractory shock are scarce. This report describes the case of a 54-year-old male, who presented to the emergency department with altered mental status.

: This study aimed to determine the minimal effective dose of indocyanine green (ICG) required for accurately assessing colonic perfusion during laparoscopic colorectal surgery using a laser-assisted laparoscopic near-infrared (NIR) camera system. : In 15 patients with colorectal cancer undergoing right hemicolectomy, the left branch of the middle colic artery was preserved, and ICG angiography was performed in the transverse colon. To determine the optimal ICG dose, experimental doses of 0.

Background: Pretreatment CT perfusion (CTP) marker relative cerebral blood volume (rCBV) < 42% lesion volume has recently shown to predict poor collateral status and poor 90-day functional outcome. However, there is a paucity of studies assessing its association with hemorrhagic transformation (HT). Here, we aim to assess the relationship between rCBV < 42% lesion volume with HT.

The purpose of this study was to identify haemodynamic factors that are associated with tissue hypoperfusion in flap/graft surgical patients that might be modified to reduce perioperative morbidity. We conducted a single-centre, retrospective, observational study of 1355 patients undergoing head and neck flap reconstructions. Logistic regression and chi-square analyses were employed to identify factors which signal perioperative complications.
