Total Voids in Concrete

Total Voids in Concrete

Total voids in concrete encompass gel water volume, capillary pores, and entrapped air. Gel water (retained within the cement hydration products) and physically entrapped or adsorbed water are significant for the hydration process. For complete hydration, it's estimated that the space needed for the products of a cubic centimeter of cement doubles. Capillary pores constitute the unoccupied space within the hydrated cement paste, with their size largely influenced by the water-to-cement...

Aortic Regurgitation I: Introduction

Aortic Regurgitation I: Introduction

IntroductionAortic regurgitation is characterized by the backward flow of blood from the aorta into the left ventricle during diastole and arises from the improper closure of the aortic valve. This condition results in left ventricular volume overload and can stem from both acute and chronic etiologies, each contributing uniquely to the disease's progression and symptomatology.Acute and Chronic CausesAcute aortic regurgitation often results from events that suddenly impair the integrity of the...

Total Internal Reflection Fluorescence Microscopy

Total Internal Reflection Fluorescence Microscopy

Total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy or TIRF is an advanced microscopic technique used to visualize fluorophores in samples close to a solid surface with a higher refractive index, such as a glass coverslip. TIRF only allows fluorophores in proximity to the solid surface to be excited. When light from a medium with a lower refractive index (such as air) hits the glass coverslip at a critical angle, the light undergoes total internal reflection stead of passing through the glass.

Static, Stagnation, Dynamic and Total Pressure

The concept of static, stagnation, dynamic, and total pressure is fundamental in fluid dynamics, often explained using Bernoulli's equation:

Aortic Regurgitation III: Medical Management

Aortic Regurgitation III: Medical Management

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...

Aortic Regurgitation IV: Nursing Management

Aortic Regurgitation IV: Nursing Management

A nurse managing a patient with aortic regurgitation begins with a comprehensive assessment, including a review of the patient's medical history, family history, and lifestyle factors. During the cardiac examination, the nurse listens for heart sounds and checks for signs of valve abnormalities. The nurse also observes for symptoms such as dyspnea, orthopnea, and paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnea and assesses the patient's endurance and daily activity tolerance.Based on the findings, the nurse...

Summary

This summary is machine-generated.

Endovascular recanalization is a feasible and life-saving treatment for subacute aortic occlusion, especially in patients with prior bypass surgery. This minimally invasive approach offers a desirable alternative to high-risk surgical interventions.

Area of Science:

Vascular Surgery
Interventional Cardiology
Endovascular Therapy

Background:

Subacute aortic occlusion is a rare but critical condition requiring rapid diagnosis and intervention.
Surgical treatment for aortic occlusion carries significant risks of mortality and morbidity.
Percutaneous revascularization is a preferred alternative when feasible.

Observation:

A 62-year-old female patient with multiple comorbidities presented with near occlusion of the left common iliac artery.
During diagnostic angiography, a total infrarenal aortic occlusion was unexpectedly discovered.
The patient had a history of peripheral vascular disease and a previous femoral-femoral bypass.

Findings:

Emergency and rescue endovascular recanalization of the aorta and left iliac artery was successfully performed.
Stent implantation was utilized to restore blood flow.
The patient was stabilized, avoiding high-risk surgical intervention.

Implications:

Endovascular recanalization is a viable and potentially life-saving option for subacute aortic occlusion in complex patients.
This case highlights the importance of considering endovascular approaches in challenging vascular emergencies.
Minimally invasive techniques can significantly reduce morbidity and mortality in selected patients with aortic occlusion.
