Hemodialysis II: Procedure and Complications

928
DialyzersA hemodialysis (HD) dialyzer is a plastic cartridge containing thousands of parallel hollow fibers, which serve as semipermeable membranes. These fibers are typically made from cellulose-based or other synthetic materials. During HD, blood is pumped into the top of the cartridge and distributed among these fibers. Simultaneously, dialysis fluid, known as dialysate, is introduced into the bottom of the cartridge, bathing the outside of the fibers. Across the semipermeable membrane,...

Diabetes: Symptoms, Diagnosis, and Complications

For most patients, experiencing several weeks of polyuria, polydipsia, fatigue, and significant weight loss may indicate the presence of diabetes. Furthermore, adults displaying the phenotypic appearance of type 2 diabetes (particularly those who are obese and not initially insulin-requiring), may have islet cell autoantibodies, suggesting autoimmune-mediated β cell destruction and a diagnosis of latent autoimmune diabetes of adults (LADA). The categorization of glucose homeostasis is...

Asthma, a common chronic respiratory condition, is classified considering the frequency and severity of symptoms alongside lung function impairment. Understanding this classification is essential for appropriate treatment and management. Here's a detailed look at the classification of asthma and its clinical features and complications:

Understanding the variety of primary symptoms and systemic complications that characterize chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is crucial for healthcare professionals.
Symptoms of COPD can be classified as primary or systemic. Primary symptoms relate to reduced airflow, while systemic or extrapulmonary symptoms relate to COPD's broader impact on the body.

Area of Science:

  • Pulmonology
  • Emergency Medicine
  • Medical Case Reports

Background:

  • Foreign body aspiration in adults has an unknown incidence and varied clinical presentations.
  • Cockroach aspiration is an exceptionally rare event, particularly in adult patients.

Observation:

  • An adult patient presented with a unique "crawling sensation" in the chest.
  • Flexible endobronchial examination identified an Australian cockroach (Periplaneta australasiae) lodged in the lingula.

Findings:

  • Partial extraction of the cockroach via biopsy forceps led to acute hypoxia, necessitating bag/mask ventilation.
  • The remaining foreign body was expectorated post-sedation.
  • The patient developed fever and bacteremia (Micrococcus luteus) 24 hours post-procedure.

Implications:

  • This case underscores the critical need for definitive airway support during endobronchial interventions.
  • It raises questions about the clinical significance and management of transient bacteremia following bronchoscopy.
