Strategies to Minimize Virus Transmission During Anesthesia Procedures in COVID-19 Patients.
Anesth Crit Care
October 2024
Department of Translational Research, College of Osteopathic Medicine of the Pacific, Western University of Health Sciences, Pomona CA 91766, USA.
Anesthesiologists and the critical care team may be at increased risk of contracting severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2, COVID-19) due to airway manipulations and intubations performed during anesthesia administration and management of patient undergoing surgery. SARS-CoV-2 infections have been reported among healthcare workers. The virus is transmitted by close personal contact and aerosols.

Background: Small airway dysfunction (SAD) and impaired diffusion capacity of the lungs for carbon monoxide ( ) are positively associated with a worse prognosis. Individuals with both dysfunctions have been identified in clinical practice and it is unknown whether they have worse health status or need management. We conducted this study to explore the association between SAD and impaired , and the difference between the groups with two dysfunctions, with either one dysfunction and with no dysfunction.

Background: The insertion of a tracheostomy is an established technique used to wean patients off ventilatory support, manage secretions in complex conditions, and as a potentially life-saving procedure to bypass upper airway obstruction. Life-threatening complications during aftercare are not uncommon and may be influenced by a lack of education of carers or healthcare providers of children and young people living with a tracheostomy. Education programmes designed and supported by the National Tracheostomy Safety Project are effective, but resources are not available to educate the workforce at scale.

Department of Neurosurgery, Pingxiang People's Hospital, Pingxiang, Jiangxi Province, 337000, China.
Background: A systematic appraisal of the comparative efficacy and safety profiles of naso-intestinal tube versus gastric tube feeding in the context of enteral nutrition for mechanically ventilated (MV) patients is imperative. Such an evaluation is essential to inform clinical practice, ensuring that the chosen method of nutritional support is both optimal and safe for this patient population.

A high fraction of inspired oxygen does not mitigate atelectasis-induced lung tissue hypoxia or injury in experimental acute respiratory distress syndrome.
Sci Rep

Department of Pathology, Dokkyo Medical University School of Medicine and Graduate School of Medicine, 880 Kitakobayashi, Mibu, Shimotsugagun, Tochigi, 321-0293, Japan.
Although alveolar hyperoxia exacerbates lung injury, clinical studies have failed to demonstrate the beneficial effects of lowering the fraction of inspired oxygen (FO) in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Atelectasis, which is commonly observed in ARDS, not only leads to hypoxemia but also contributes to lung injury through hypoxia-induced alveolar tissue inflammation. Therefore, it is possible that excessively low FO may enhance hypoxia-induced inflammation in atelectasis, and raising FO to an appropriate level may be a reasonable strategy for its mitigation.
