Coronary Artery Disease V: Interprofessional Care

435
Interprofessional care for coronary artery disease includes pharmacological therapy and revascularization procedures.Pharmacological therapy for Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) aims to manage symptoms, prevent complications, and improve patient outcomes through various classes of medications:Antiplatelet Agents:Aspirin and Clopidogrel: These medications inhibit platelet aggregation, preventing blood clots, which is crucial for avoiding heart attacks and strokes. Doctors often prescribe these...

Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation II: ACLS Airway Management

1.1K
Airway management is a key skill in emergency and critical care settings, as maintaining a clear airway is essential for adequate oxygenation and ventilation.Head Tilt-Chin Lift TechniqueThe head tilt-chin lift maneuver is an essential technique primarily used in patients without suspected cervical spine injuries. To perform this maneuver, one hand is placed on the patient’s forehead, and gentle pressure is applied backward to tilt the head. The fingertips of the other hand are positioned...

Coronary Artery Disease (CAD): An Overview with Scientific InsightsCoronary Artery Disease (CAD), often referred to as C-A-D, is a prevalent blood vessel disorder classified under the broader category of atherosclerosis. Atherosclerosis is a pathological process characterized by the hardening and narrowing of arteries due to the accumulation of atherosclerotic plaques. These plaques are composed of cholesterol, fatty substances, inflammatory cells, calcium, and fibrin, reducing blood flow to...

Coronary Artery Disease IV: Preventive Measures

879
Effective preventive measures for coronary artery disease (CAD) focus on controlling modifiable risk factors, including cholesterol abnormalities and lifestyle changes.Cholesterol ManagementFirst, the Mediterranean diet and the American Heart Association advocate for maintaining low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol levels below 100 mg/dL, with a more stringent recommendation of below 70 mg/dL for individuals at high risk. LDL cholesterol, often termed "bad cholesterol," can lead to the...

Coronary Circulation01:21

Coronary Circulation

10.7K
The heart, an organ critical to survival, gets nourishment not from the blood it pumps but from a separate circulation system known as coronary circulation. This is the shortest circulation in the body and is responsible for supplying the heart with the nutrients it needs to function effectively.
Coronary circulation begins at the base of the aorta, where two main arteries arise—the left and right coronary arteries. These arteries encircle the heart in the coronary sulcus and supply the...

Coronary Artery Disease II: Pathophysiology

1.0K
Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) originates from a series of events that impair the function of coronary arteries, the blood vessels responsible for delivering oxygen-rich blood to the heart muscle. The pathophysiology of CAD is closely linked to atherosclerosis, a chronic inflammatory and lipid-driven condition affecting the vascular endothelium.1. Endothelial DamageThe process begins with damage to the vascular endothelium, which serves as a protective barrier between the blood and the vessel...

Area of Science:

  • Plastic Surgery
  • Facial Rejuvenation
  • Aesthetic Medicine

Background:

  • Facial aging results from cumulative environmental and intrinsic factors, leading to skin textural changes and volume loss.
  • Current facelift techniques aim for safe and effective outcomes, but variations exist in achieving midfacial rejuvenation.
  • Midfacial aging impacts the skin, soft tissues, and deep structural components, necessitating targeted interventions.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce and evaluate a novel, safe approach for midfacial rejuvenation.
  • To achieve long-lasting improvement and a natural aesthetic effect in the aging midface.
  • To combine superficial musculoaponeurotic system (SMAS) plication with blepharoplasty for comprehensive rejuvenation.

Main Methods:

  • The KOr.U technique involves SMAS plication using four vectors combined with blepharoplasty.
  • SMAS plication provides three vectors of elevation beneath the skin, linked to Lorè's fascia.
  • A third vector elevates the platysma muscle behind the ear for enhanced midface support.

Main Results:

  • The KOr.U technique was applied to 31 patients between October 2010 and October 2012.
  • The procedure demonstrated effective and long-lasting results in midfacial rejuvenation.
  • The technique successfully restored midfacial volume without causing injury.

Conclusions:

  • The KOr.U technique offers a simplified and safe method for midface rejuvenation.
  • It can be performed effectively under local anesthesia as a standalone procedure.
  • The approach avoids potential injury to the facial nerve, enhancing safety.
