34 children selected into two groups due to age (patients from 4 to 7 year old were included in the 1st group, the 2nd group consisted of children, aged from 8 years to 14 years, were premedicated with dormicum, and in other 37 patients standard premedication was applied. The state of cardiovascular system was estimated by means of indices of central hemodynamics and heart rate monitoring data. Every patient was examined both before and 30 minutes after premedication. While standard premedication activates central hemodynamics, increases, especially in older children, left ventricular performance, premedication with dormicum influence neither indices of central hemodynamics nor left ventricular performance, and causes moderate sympatical activation by dormicum in dose of 0.5 mg/kg, appearing to be effective in children of any age and can be used in ambulatory surgical otorhinolaryngology in children.

The accurate non-invasive detection and estimation of central aortic pressure waveforms (CAPW) are crucial for reliable treatments of cardiovascular system diseases. But the accuracy and practicality of current estimation methods need to be improved. Our study combines a meta-learning neural network and a physics-driven method to accurately estimate CAPW based on personalized physiological indicators.

Sepsis-induced cardiomyopathy (SICM) is a life-threatening complication of sepsis characterized by myocardial dysfunction. SICM significantly increases mortality rates in sepsis. Despite its clinical relevance, SICM lacks a unified definition and standardized diagnostic criteria, complicating early identification and treatment.

Cardiac return assist blanket (CRAB) safely increases central venous pressure.

J Int Med Res

January 2025

Institute for Health Research, the University of Notre Dame Australia, Department of Research, Sir Charles Gairdner Hospital, Nedlands, Australia.

Objective: The cardiac return assist blanket (CRAB) has been designed to increase central venous pressure (CVP) to manage severe hypotension associated with anaphylaxis. This interventional study aimed to identify the relationship between CRAB pressure and CVP. CRAB pressure was also compared with the change in CVP associated with a straight leg raise (SLR), the Trendelenburg position, and 1 L of compound sodium lactate.

Background: Venous waveform analysis is an emerging technique to estimate intravascular fluid status by fast Fourier transform deconvolution. Fluid status has been shown proportional to , the amplitude of the fundamental frequency of the waveform's cardiac wave upon deconvolution. Using a porcine model of distributive shock and fluid resuscitation, we sought to determine the influence of norepinephrine on of the central venous waveform.

Background: Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is characterized by elevated pulmonary artery pressure and vascular resistance, leading to systemic venous hypertension and potential right heart failure. These elevated pressures can extend to ocular veins, resulting in complications such as central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO). This case report highlights a rare instance of CRVO combined with cilioretinal artery occlusion (CilRAO), an uncommon ocular manifestation associated with PAH.
