Background: Open pelvic fractures are rare but represent a serious clinical problem with high mortality rates. Acute mortality is often associated with hemorrhage, whereas delayed mortality is most often associated with sepsis and multiple organ failure. We report a case of Wang's classification of type II open pelvic ring fracture with hemorrhagic shock and septic shock from gas gangrene.

Motion Sickness and Human Performance Laboratory, The Israel Naval Medical Institute, IDF Medical Corps, Haifa, Israel.
Purpose: Acute acoustic trauma (AAT) is a sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) due to exposure to high intensity impulse noise. There are no acceptable treatment guidelines, although several studies showed steroids could be effective in restoring hearing levels. A recent report suggested that steroids combined with hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) are a superior regiment for AAT.

Introduction: Laparoscopic cholecystectomy has evolved into a daycare procedure thanks to advancements in both surgical and anesthetic techniques. Regional anesthesia, specifically segmental thoracic spinal anesthesia (TSA), offers distinct benefits over general anesthesia, such as enhanced hemodynamic stability and quicker recovery, especially in high-risk patients. This study aims to compare the sensory and motor block characteristics, hemodynamic stability, and incidence of adverse effects between isobaric and hyperbaric 0.
