Emergency medicine updates: Sympathetic crashing acute pulmonary edema.
Am J Emerg Med
January 2025
Department of Emergency Medicine, Rush University Medical Center, Chicago, IL, USA.
Introduction: Patients with heart failure exacerbation can present in a variety of ways, including sympathetic crashing acute pulmonary edema (SCAPE). Emergency physicians play a key role in the diagnosis and management of this condition.
Objective: This narrative review evaluates key evidence-based updates concerning the diagnosis and management of SCAPE for the emergency clinician.
Physiological basis of non-invasive ventilation in the newborn.

Non-invasive ventilation (NIV) is a form of respiratory support provided primarily to preterm born infants in an effort to avoid any endotracheal intubation or as a weaning step following invasive ventilation. In the context of the respiratory distress syndrome of the newborn, NIV could target and partially reverse specific pathophysiological phenomena, by improving alveolar recruitment and establishing adequate functional residual capacity. It can also assist in minimizing lung injury by avoiding excessive pressure delivery, which can be harmful for the developing lung.

Objective: Awake, endoscopic spinal fusion has been utilized as an ultra-minimally invasive surgery technique to accomplish the goals of spinal fixation, fusion, and disc height restoration. While many techniques exist for this approach, this series represents a single institution's experience with a large cohort and the evolution of this method.
Methods: The medical records of a consecutive series of 400 patients treated over a 10-year period were retrospectively reviewed.
Impact of corticosteroids on improving lung compliance in a patient with pulmonary microscopic polyangiitis.
BMJ Case Rep
January 2025
Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine, The University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston, Houston, Texas, USA.
Microscopic polyangiitis (MPA) is a small-vessel vasculitis characterised by systemic infiltration, with a primary focus on the renal and pulmonary systems. One of its more lethal pulmonary manifestations is diffuse alveolar haemorrhage (DAH), although the spectrum of lung pathology in MPA is vast and calls for immediate immunosuppressive therapy. Our case looks at an older woman initially presenting with MPA-induced rapid progressive glomerulonephritis.

Faculty of Health Sciences, Postgraduation Program in Health Sciences, University of Brasilia, Brasilia, Brazil.
Unplanned extubation (UPE), defined as accidental removal of the endotracheal tube during mechanical ventilation or its replacement due to suspected obstruction or inadequate diameter, is considered the fourth most common adverse event in neonatal intensive care units (NICU). This study aimed to describe a systematic review and meta-analysis protocol that will identify and assess the effect of primary intervention measures designed to prevent UPE in NICU. A search will be carried out in the following databases: PubMed/Medline, EMBASE, Scopus, CINAHL, Cochrane Library, SciELO, and LILACS.
