Pathophysiology of Diabetes01:20

Pathophysiology of Diabetes

3.8K
Diabetes mellitus is a chronic metabolic disorder characterized by hyperglycemia. The four categories of diabetes are type 1 diabetes, type 2 diabetes, other specific types of diabetes, and gestational diabetes.
Type 1 diabetes is characterized by autoimmune-mediated destruction of pancreatic β cells, with environmental factors potentially triggering this process in genetically susceptible individuals. Despite many not having a family history, certain genes increase susceptibility,...

Disorders of the Female Reproductive System

4.6K
The female reproductive system can be affected by several disorders, including Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS), Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD), endometriosis, and various forms of cancer. PMS and PMDD are cyclical conditions that cause physical and emotional distress, with symptoms that include edema, mood swings, and food cravings. PMDD is a more severe form of PMS characterized by increased symptom severity that peaks during the luteal phase and tends to improve or resolve shortly after...

Pulmonary Embolism I: Introduction

849
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...

Menses Phase01:18

Menses Phase

1.2K
The uterine cycle begins with the menstrual phase, which is considered day one of the cycle and typically lasts about five days. This phase is characterized by the degeneration and shedding of the stratum functionalis, the functional layer of the endometrium.
When fertilization does not occur, the corpus luteum deteriorates, causing a significant drop in the levels of estrogen and progesterone in the body. This hormonal decrease triggers the release of prostaglandins, which cause the uterine...

Pulmonary Embolism III: Nursing Management

467
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...

Area of Science:

  • Interventional Radiology
  • Obstetrics & Gynecology
  • Vascular Surgery

Background:

  • Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) is a leading cause of maternal mortality.
  • PPH requires prompt medical intervention to prevent severe morbidity and mortality.
  • Causes of emergent bleeding requiring interventional radiology include pregnancy-related conditions, trauma, and malignancy.

Observation:

  • Transcatheter uterine artery embolization (TUAE) was introduced in 1979 for PPH treatment.
  • TUAE is a safe, effective, and minimally invasive nonsurgical option.
  • Conservative measures often fail before TUAE is considered.

Findings:

  • TUAE is effective in controlling excessive uterine bleeding.
  • Referring providers often lack awareness of TUAE as a treatment option.
  • Hospitals with experienced interventional radiologists can utilize TUAE for emergent obstetric hemorrhage.

Implications:

  • Increased awareness of TUAE can improve PPH management.
  • TUAE can reduce maternal mortality and morbidity associated with PPH.
  • Interventional radiology plays a crucial role in managing life-threatening obstetric bleeding.
