Background: Researches on the effect of hemodynamic stabilization on the implantation of conservative management for pediatric high-grade renal traumas are lacking. We aimed to assess the effect of maintaining the initial hemodynamic stability of pediatric patients with grades 3-5 renal trauma on the implementation of the conservative treatment and identify its defining factors.
Methods: A prospective study was performed on pediatric patients with grade 3-5 renal traumas who presented to our hospital during July 2020-June 2022. Hemodynamically stable patients were compared with the unstable patients for clinical characteristics, hemodynamic stabilization, and rates of success of conservative treatment.
Results: Forty-three patients were studied, including 26 boys and 17 girls. Of them, 28 (65.1%) patients presented with hemodynamic stability and 15 (34.9%) patients were unstable. Overall, 32 (74.4%) patients achieved and/or maintained hemodynamic stability for conservative management. There was a significant difference in blood pressure level at presentation (p < 0.001). The improvement of the hemodynamic parameters was significant per group and, in comparison (p < 0.001). The size of hematoma was significantly smaller in patients with hemodynamic stability (p = 0.023). Despite the longer (p = 0.033) hospital stay with conservative management, the rates of blood transfusion (p = 0.597) and hospital stay (p = 0.785) were not significantly different between both groups. The rates of nephrectomy and mortality were 14% and 0%, respectively. Blood pressure was independently associated with the achievement of maintained hemodynamic stability for conservative management (p = 0.022).
Conclusions: Hemodynamic stabilization seems to be effective and safe for implementing successful conservative management for pediatric patients with high-grade renal traumas. Blood pressure was the only independent factor of maintaining hemodynamic stability.

Stuck prosthetic valves, often resulting from pannus formation or thrombus accumulation, represent a critical complication in prosthetic valve management, carrying significant risks for morbidity and mortality. This study aims to identify factors associated with stuck valve development and assess the effectiveness of interventions in restoring normal valve function. A total of 27 patients with stuck valves were analyzed, including mitral, aortic, and tricuspid valve cases.

Background: The use of a fluid co-load has been shown to enhance hemodynamic stability and diminish the occurrence of hypotension after spinal anesthesia when paired with prophylactic norepinephrine. This research aimed to identify the effective dosages (ED and ED) of prophylactic norepinephrine boluses, in conjunction with a crystalloid co-load, for the prevention of hypotension after spinal anesthesia in cesarean delivery patients.
Methods: Patients were administered crystalloid co-loads at a dosage of 10 mL/kg, in addition to preventive norepinephrine dosages direct following spinal anesthesia administration.

Introduction: Aorto-bronchial or aorto-pulmonary fistulas (ABPF) are a rare but life-threatening complication following thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR). This narrative review aims to provide an overview of the current trends and available evidence on ABPF following TEVAR, evaluating risk factors, diagnostic approaches, and possible preventive and therapeutic strategies.
Methods: Relevant publications on post-TEVAR ABPF were selected through a literature search on PubMed.
Evaluation of the effect of carotid sinus blockade on hemodynamic stability in carotid surgery: A retrospective study.

Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, Eskisehir Osmangazi University Medical Faculty, Eskişehir, Türkiye.
This study assesses the effect of carotid sinus blockade applied with a local anesthetic on hemodynamic parameters during carotid endarterectomy (CEA) operations performed under general anesthesia. The medical records of patients who underwent CEA under general anesthesia between January 2020 and December 2022, were retrospectively reviewed. It was recorded whether the patients received carotid sinus block with 2 mL of 2% prilocaine.
