Endoscopic Studies II: Thoracocentesis01:26

Endoscopic Studies II: Thoracocentesis

2.5K
Thoracentesis(Thoracocentesis), commonly known as pleural tap, is a medical procedure where a 22 gauge needle is inserted into the pleural space, the area between the lung and chest wall. This procedure is commonly performed to diagnose or treat various respiratory disorders.
Description
Excess pleural fluid or air may accumulate in some respiratory disorders in the thoracic cavity. To treat pleural effusion, a physician conducts thoracentesis by carefully piercing the chest wall and entering...

Cardiac Catheterization III: Left Heart Catheterization

1.3K
Left heart catheterization is an invasive diagnostic procedure used to evaluate the function and structure of the left side of the heart. It is generally performed to diagnose and treat cardiovascular conditions such as valve abnormalities, coronary artery disease, and congenital heart defects.Diagnostic and therapeutic purposesLeft heart catheterization serves various diagnostic and therapeutic purposes, including:Assessing coronary artery bypass grafts.Evaluating coronary artery disease in...

Cardiomyopathy VII: Pre and Post Operative Nursing Management

460
Patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) and left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction who remain symptomatic despite optimal medical therapy may undergo a septal myectomy (Morrow procedure). This procedure involves excising a portion of the hypertrophied septum below the aortic valve using a heart-lung machine to improve blood flow through the LVOT. Effective preoperative and postoperative nursing management ensures successful patient outcomes, minimizes complications, and...

Mitral Stenosis III: Medical Management

535
Mitral stenosis, a condition marked by the narrowing of the mitral valve, necessitates an integrated approach for effective management. This approach includes preventative measures, medical therapy, and surgical interventions to reduce symptoms and prevent complications.PreventionPrevention of mitral stenosis primarily focuses on reducing the incidence of bacterial infections, particularly streptococcal infections, which can lead to rheumatic fever and subsequent valvular damage. Timely...

Aortic Regurgitation III: Medical Management01:25

Aortic Regurgitation III: Medical Management

598
Aortic regurgitation (AR) is when the aortic valve does not close or seal properly, leading to backward blood circulation from the aorta into the left ventricle during diastole. Common causes of AR include rheumatic heart disease, congenital valve defects, and aortic root dilation. Managing AR requires a multifaceted approach to alleviate symptoms, preserve left ventricular function, and address the underlying cause of the regurgitation. Patients with symptomatic AR or significant left...

Right Heart Catheterization: An OverviewRight heart catheterization is an invasive diagnostic procedure that measures right-sided cardiac and pulmonary artery pressures, calculates cardiac output, and identifies intracardiac shunts. It provides detailed hemodynamic data essential for diagnosing and managing various cardiovascular conditions, such as pulmonary hypertension.Access SitesCommon access sites for right heart catheterization include the internal jugular vein in the neck region, the...

Area of Science:

  • Cardiology
  • Congenital Heart Disease
  • Anesthesiology

Background:

  • Cor triatriatum sinistrum (CTS) and cor triatriatum dextrum (CTD) are rare congenital heart anomalies.
  • These conditions involve a perforated septum dividing an atrium into two chambers.
  • This review focuses on the perioperative management of patients with uncorrected CT.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the perioperative course of patients with uncorrected cor triatriatum (CT) undergoing procedures requiring anesthesia.
  • To examine the existing literature on the perioperative experience of patients with CT.

Main Methods:

  • A computerized search identified adult patients with uncorrected CTD and CTS undergoing surgical procedures.
  • Descriptive statistics were utilized to analyze the data.

Main Results:

  • Twelve adult patients with asymptomatic CTS (n=7) and CTD (n=5) were identified.
  • These patients underwent a total of 23 anesthetics.
  • No perioperative complications were directly attributed to the anomalous CT anatomy.

Conclusions:

  • Asymptomatic patients with cor triatriatum typically tolerate anesthesia and surgical procedures well.
  • The findings suggest a favorable perioperative outcome for these patients.
