Pulmonary Embolism II: Diagnostic Studies and Interprofessional Care

629
Diagnosing Pulmonary EmbolismDiagnosing pulmonary embolism (PE) involves clinical assessment and advanced imaging tests. The preferred diagnostic tool is the spiral (helical) CT scan or CT angiography (CTA), which uses intravenous contrast media to visualize the pulmonary vasculature and identify emboli.A ventilation-perfusion (V/Q) scan is an alternative for patients unable to receive contrast media. This scan includes both perfusion and ventilation scanning. Perfusion scanning involves...

Venous Thrombosis III: Interprofessional Care

455
Venous thrombosis requires effective prevention and treatment strategies to improve patient outcomes and reduce potential complications.Prevention StrategiesHealthcare providers must prioritize preventing venous thromboembolism (VTE) for all adult patients upon admission. Interventions depend on bleeding and thrombosis risk, medical history, current medications, diagnoses, planned procedures, and patient preferences. Patients on bed rest should change positions every two hours and, if not...

Pulmonary Embolism III: Nursing Management

618
A pulmonary embolism occurs when a thrombus, amniotic fluid, tumor tissue, fat, or air embolus blocks one or more pulmonary arteries. Effective nursing management and patient education are crucial for improving outcomes and preventing recurrence.Nursing management starts with obtaining a comprehensive patient history, particularly noting any history of deep vein thrombosis (DVT). Assess for clinical manifestations, including dyspnea, chest pain, crackles, heart murmurs, and signs of right-sided...

Pulmonary Embolism I: Introduction

1.1K
Pulmonary embolism (PE) occurs when a thrombus, fat or air embolus, amniotic fluid, or tumor tissue blocks one or more pulmonary arteries. These blockages originate in the venous system or the right side of the heart.EtiologyPE primarily arises from deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and other hypercoagulable states, such as inherited thrombophilias. Additional etiological factors include venous stasis, commonly seen in obesity, and endothelial injury from surgery and trauma. Less common causes include...

Area of Science:

  • Trauma Surgery
  • Interventional Radiology
  • Emergency Medicine

Background:

  • Abdominal trauma is a significant cause of mortality, particularly in young patients with multiple injuries.
  • Effective management requires a structured, multidisciplinary approach from the injury scene to specialized hospital care.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To detail embolization procedures for managing abdominal trauma.
  • To highlight the role of interventional radiologists in trauma care.

Main Methods:

  • Review of non-operative management strategies for abdominal trauma.
  • Focus on selective embolization techniques for active bleeding and vascular anomalies.
  • Discussion of imaging modalities like whole-body dual-phase computed tomography.

Main Results:

  • Selective embolization is a cornerstone of non-operative management for hemodynamically stable or stabilized trauma patients.
  • Embolization effectively controls active bleeding and addresses vascular anomalies in abdominal trauma.

Conclusions:

  • Interventional radiologists play a vital role in the multidisciplinary trauma team.
  • Embolization techniques are essential for improving outcomes in abdominal trauma management.
