Liver transplantation (LT) has an incidence of intraoperative cardiopulmonary arrest (CPA) of around 5%. Patients who experience CPA during this procedure have a reduced survival rate of approximately 50%. Most CPAs occur during the neohepatic phase due to reperfusion syndrome, but this is not always the underlying cause, and a broad differential diagnosis must be performed.

Several parameters have been proposed for the objective measurement of the quality of care (QoC) and breaches of care in patients with heart failure (HF). Therefore, the objective of this study was to evaluate the measures of QoC in inpatients with decompensated HF in the cardiology department of a tertiary Venezuelan hospital. : An observational, descriptive, ambispective study was conducted with adults of all genders diagnosed with decompensated HF between 2022 and 2024.

Infantile hemangioma (IH) is the most common pediatric benign vascular tumor. Its pathogenesis is still poorly understood, and it usually appears during the first few weeks of life and follows a characteristic natural course of proliferation and involution. Most IHs are small, benign, resolve spontaneously, and do not require active treatment but only active observation.

Nimodipine is the current gold standard in the treatment of subarachnoid hemorrhage, as it is the only known calcium channel blocker that has been proven to improve neurological outcomes. In addition, nimodipine exhibits neuroprotective properties in vitro under various stress conditions. Furthermore, clinical studies have demonstrated a neuroprotective effect of nimodipine after vestibular schwannoma surgery.

Cirrhotic cardiomyopathy (CCM) is a diagnostic entity defined as cardiac dysfunction (diastolic and/or systolic) in patients with liver cirrhosis, in the absence of overt cardiac disorder. Pathogenically, CCM stems from a combination of systemic and local hepatic factors that, through hemodynamic and neurohormonal changes, affect the balance of cardiac function and lead to its remodeling. Vascular changes in cirrhosis, mostly driven by portal hypertension, splanchnic vasodilatation, and increased cardiac output alongside maladaptively upregulated feedback systems, lead to fluid accumulation, venostasis, and cardiac dysfunction.
