Maternal Morbidity and Medically Assisted Reproduction Treatment Types.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aims to analyze the risk of maternal morbidity based on how pregnancies were achieved, focusing on various methods of medically assisted reproduction like fertility drugs, IUI, and ART.
  • Data from Utah's birth certificates (2009-2017) showed that 4.8% of pregnancies were from assisted reproduction, with maternal morbidity defined by complications like blood transfusions and ICU admissions.
  • Results indicated higher maternal morbidity risks for those using assisted reproduction, particularly with ART and autologous oocytes, although these risks decreased when controlling for factors like multiple pregnancies and existing health issues.

Background: The use of cell salvage and autologous blood transfusion is an important and widespread method of blood conservation during surgeries with expected high blood loss. The continuous autotransfusion device CATSmart (Fresenius Kabi, Germany) contains two new washing programs on the device called Flex wash 3 and Flex wash 5. To the best of our knowledge, there are no published clinical data regarding the performance of the two new washing programs.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates the incidence of blood transfusions in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) using acute normovolemic haemodilution (ANH) over six months.
  • In a cohort of 50 patients, 44% required allogeneic blood transfusions perioperatively, with notable intraoperative and ICU transfusion rates associated with lower haemoglobin levels during surgery and longer surgical times.
  • The findings suggest that managing intraoperative conditions effectively may help reduce the need for blood transfusions and minimize potential postoperative complications.

Point of care ultrasound measurement of paralumbar caudal vena cava diameter and caudal vena cava to aortic ratio in hypovolemic dogs.

Front Vet Sci

October 2024

Department of Clinical Sciences, College of Veterinary Medicine and Biomedical Sciences, Colorado State University, Fort Collins, CO, United States.

Background: Accurate assessment of intravascular volume is critical for precise fluid prescription. In people, bedside or point of care ultrasound is used to measure the inferior vena cava, with or without paired aortic measurement, to estimate intravascular volume.

Objective: To determine if point of care ultrasound measurement of the caudal vena cava (CVC) diameter or the CVC diameter to the abdominal aorta (Ao) diameter (CVC:Ao) at the paralumbar view are associated with changes in intravascular volume, mean arterial pressure (MAP), or cardiac output in normovolemic and hypovolemic dogs.
