Associations of time to the operating room on outcomes in odontogenic infection.
BMC Oral Health
January 2025
Dental College of Georgia, Augusta University, Augusta, GA, 30904, Georgia.
The purpose of this study was to determine if there were correlations between the length of time from hospital admission to surgical intervention and the frequency of complications in patients with odontogenic infections. While odontogenic infection is well studied in terms of interventions and outcomes, less is known about hospital utilization and resource burden of odontogenic infection with respect to timeliness to intervention. A retrospective cohort analysis was used to examine correlations between time from admission to surgical intervention and clinical outcomes.

Department of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, Lishui Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine Affiliated to Zhejiang University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, No. 800 Zhongshan Road, Liandu District, Lishui, Zhejiang, 323000, China.
Background: Legionella pneumophila is an uncommon pathogen causing community-acquired atypical pneumonia. Acinetobacter baumannii is a major pathogen responsible for hospital-acquired pneumonia, but it rarely causes serious infections in a community setting. Without prompt and appropriate treatments, infection from either of these two pathogens can cause a high mortality rate.

Arch Dis Child Fetal Neonatal Ed
January 2025
Department of Neonatology, The National Maternity Hospital, Dublin, Ireland.
Background: The Neonatal Resuscitation Program recommends direct laryngoscopy (DL) as the primary method for neonatal intubation. Video laryngoscopy (VL) is suggested as an option, particularly for training novice operators or for intubating infants with difficult airways. The programme outlines specific steps for intubation, including managing the external environment and techniques for visualising key anatomical landmarks.

November 2024
Department of Family Dentistry, University of Benin Teaching Hospital, Benin-city, Edo State, Nigeria.
Background: Postoperative throat complications (POTCs) are common and distressing to patients; consensus on their optimum treatment is unclear.
Aim: The aim of the study was to determine the efficacy of a steroid-soaked throat pack on POTCs following oral and maxillofacial surgery.
Materials And Methods: This was a randomized, triple-blinded, controlled clinical study design on all consecutive patients who had endotracheal intubation and pharyngeal throat packs following major oral and maxillofacial surgery.
Difficult airway management in a patient with severe mitral and tricuspid regurgitation, rapid atrial fibrillation, and moderate pulmonary hypertension: a case report.
BMC Anesthesiol
January 2025
Department of Anaesthesiology, West China Hospital, Sichuan University & The Research Units of West China (2018RU012), Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, Chengdu, 610041, China.
Background: Given the prevalence of cardiovascular disease, encountering difficult airways in this patient population is quite common. The challenge for anesthesiologists lies not only in establishing the airway but also in managing the hemodynamic instability caused by sympathetic activation during intubation. The purpose of this report is to describe the anesthetic experience of this patient with severe mitral and tricuspid regurgitation, atrial fibrillation with rapid ventricular response, and moderate pulmonary hypertension with an anticipated difficult airway.
