Cardiomyopathy VII: Pre and Post Operative Nursing Management01:28

Cardiomyopathy VII: Pre and Post Operative Nursing Management

400
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...

Endoscopic Studies II: Thoracocentesis

1.7K
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...

Coronary Artery Disease V: Interprofessional Care

343
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...

Endoscopic Studies I: Bronchoscopy and Thoracoscopy

777
Endoscopy is a non-surgical medical technique used to examine a person's internal organs and vessels. This lesson will focus on two types of endoscopic studies: bronchoscopy and thoracoscopy.
Bronchoscopy
Description
Bronchoscopy is a procedure that involves direct visualization of the larynx, trachea, and bronchi for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. A flexible fiber optic or rigid bronchoscope is used to carry out the procedure. The fiber-optic bronchoscope is more frequently used due...

Area of Science:

  • Cardiovascular Surgery
  • Thoracic Surgery
  • Surgical Oncology

Background:

  • General thoracic surgeries are complex procedures.
  • Collaboration with cardiovascular surgeons can enhance surgical outcomes.
  • Evaluating the safety and efficacy of interdisciplinary surgical approaches is crucial.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the feasibility and safety of collaborative surgeries between general thoracic and cardiovascular surgeons.
  • To analyze the outcomes of these joint surgical procedures.
  • To determine the impact on morbidity, mortality, and completeness of resection.

Main Methods:

  • A retrospective review of 75 collaborative surgeries performed between May 2002 and December 2015.
  • Analysis of surgical procedures, manipulated organs, morbidity, mortality, resection completeness, and prognosis.
  • Categorization of surgeries into scheduled and emergent cases.

Main Results:

  • No 30- or 90-day mortality was observed in the 75 cases.
  • Respiratory failure was the most common morbidity (18%).
  • Microscopic complete resection was achieved in 78% of patients with thoracic neoplasms.

Conclusions:

  • Collaborative surgeries with cardiovascular surgeons are feasible and safe.
  • Achieving a balance between safety and completeness of resection is vital.
  • These collaborations contribute to both patient care and surgical training.
