Development of colonic stent simulator using three-dimensional printing technique: a simulator development study in Korea.
Clin Endosc
November 2024
Division of Gastroenterology, Department of Internal Medicine, Yeouido St. Mary's Hospital, College of Medicine, The Catholic University of Korea, Seoul, Korea.
Background/aims: Colonic stenting plays a vital role in the management of acute malignant colonic obstruction. The increasing use of self-expandable metal stents (SEMS) and the diverse challenges posed by colonic obstruction at various locations underscore the importance of effective training for colonic stent placement.
Methods: All the components of the simulator were manufactured using silicone molding techniques in conjunction with three-dimensional (3D) printing.
Comparison of efficacy between beractant and poractant alfa in respiratory distress syndrome among preterm infants (28-33 weeks gestational age) using the less invasive surfactant administration (LISA) technique: A randomized controlled trial.
J Perinatol
April 2024
Department of Pharmacology, Institute of Post Graduate Medical Education & Research and SSKM Hospital, 244, A J C Bose Road, Kolkata, PIN-700020, India.
Article Synopsis
- Exogenous surfactant therapy is crucial for treating respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) in preterm infants, and the study focuses on the effectiveness of less invasive surfactant administration (LISA) using two types: beractant and poractant alfa.
- In a randomized controlled trial, 120 preterm infants (28-33 weeks) with RDS were treated with either beractant (100 mg/kg) or poractant-alfa (200 mg/kg), with intubation needs within 72 hours as the primary outcome.
- Results showed both treatments required intubation in 3.3% of cases, with no significant differences in effectiveness, but beractant was more cost-effective than poractant
Primary percutaneous intervention in an unusual vessel using an unusual technique: a case report.
Eur Heart J Case Rep
March 2024
Department of Cardiology, GB Pant Hospital, 1, Jawaharlal Nehru Marg, 64 Khamba, Raj Ghat, New Delhi 110002, India.
Background: Primary percutaneous intervention (PPCI) of the saphenous vein graft (SVG) is associated with a high risk of distal embolization and no reflow, since SVG lesions are often very friable and have a large thrombotic burden. We report a case of successful PPCI of the SVG using guide catheter thrombectomy with novel double wire technique.
Case Summary: A 60-year-old male with a past history of coronary artery bypass grafting presented with acute thrombotic occlusion of the SVG to the obtuse marginal graft.
Evaluation the quality of bag-mask ventilation by E/C, T/E and hook technique (a new proposed technique).
BMC Anesthesiol
November 2023
Road Traffic Injury Research Center, Tabriz University of Medical Sciences, Tabriz, Iran.
Article Synopsis
- Bag-Mask Ventilation (BMV) is essential for managing airways in emergencies, and the study compares three techniques: E/C, T/E, and a new 'hook technique' for effectiveness in single-person BMV execution.
- A pilot study initially tested 63 medical staff on manikins, followed by a more extensive study involving 492 emergency patients divided into groups for each technique while monitoring end-tidal CO2 (ETCO2) levels.
- Results showed the hook technique had the highest successful ventilation rate at 93.3%, outperforming T/E (87.2%) and E/C (89.6%), indicating it could be a preferred method for effective airway management.
More Than 1 Way to Put in A T-Tube: A Review of Different Techniques Used in Insertion of Montgomery T-Tubes.
Ann Otol Rhinol Laryngol
February 2024
Department of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, Loma Linda University, Loma Linda, CA, USA.
Objective: The Montgomery T-tube is a commonly used device initially designed as a temporary airway stent, but also used as a long-term airway solution for stenosis. For patients undergoing either endoscopic or open airway procedures, proper techniques for inserting these tubes are well documented. This review compiles the techniques used for insertion of the Montgomery T-tube stent.
