Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy01:30

Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy

1.1K
Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy, also known as CRRT, is a procedural treatment for acute kidney injury (AKI) that gradually removes uremic toxins and fluids while maintaining acid-base balance and stabilizing electrolytes. It is particularly useful for hemodynamically unstable patients. Unlike intermittent hemodialysis, which is faster, CRRT provides a gentler approach over 24 hours, closely mimicking the function of natural kidneys. However, CRRT is not ideal for patients with...

Total Voids in Concrete01:12

Total Voids in Concrete

492
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...

Cranial Bones: Superior and Posterior View01:14

Cranial Bones: Superior and Posterior View

5.1K
The superior view of the cranium shows the frontal and paired parietal bones.
The frontal bone is the single bone that forms the forehead. At its anterior midline, between the eyebrows, there is a slight depression called the glabella. The frontal bone also forms the supraorbital margin of the orbit. Near the middle of this margin is the supraorbital foramen, the opening that provides passage for a sensory nerve to the forehead. The frontal bone is thickened just above each supraorbital margin,...

Frustration and Conflict: Approach-Approach, Approach-Avoidance01:20

Frustration and Conflict: Approach-Approach, Approach-Avoidance

537
Frustration occurs when people are obstructed or prevented from achieving a desired goal or fulfilling a perceived need. For example, when someone's input is ignored in a discussion, it can lead to feelings of frustration. Conflict, however, arises from opposing interests, goals, or actions. Conflicts can take various forms based on the nature of these opposing desires or goals.
One common type of conflict is the Approach–Approach Conflict. In this case, a person faces two desirable...

Total Internal Reflection Fluorescence Microscopy01:05

Total Internal Reflection Fluorescence Microscopy

13.4K
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.

Extracorporeal Removal of Drugs: Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy01:26

Extracorporeal Removal of Drugs: Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy

222
Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy (CRRT) is an essential intervention for patients experiencing severe kidney dysfunction. This therapy offers a continuous mechanism for removing fluids and toxins from the bloodstream, leveraging the patient’s blood pressure to facilitate filtration through a specialized filter. This method contrasts with intermittent dialysis, providing a gentler and more consistent removal of waste products and excess fluid, which is particularly beneficial in...

Area of Science:

  • Orthopaedic Surgery
  • Minimally Invasive Surgical Techniques
  • Total Hip Arthroplasty

Background:

  • Growing trend in orthopaedic surgery towards smaller incisions for total hip arthroplasty (THA).
  • Need for surgical approaches that minimize tissue disruption while maintaining functional outcomes.
  • Previous posterior approaches often involved extensive soft tissue dissection.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe a modified posterior mini-incision technique for total hip arthroplasty.
  • To evaluate the cosmetic advantages and patient-reported outcomes of this approach.
  • To assess the technique's contribution to same-day surgery and rapid recovery protocols.

Main Methods:

  • A modified posterior mini-incision technique preserving external rotator muscles (piriformis and quadratus femoris) and hip capsule.
  • The approach avoids incising the tensor fascia/iliotibial band and preserves gluteus maximus insertion.
  • Detailed surgical steps including incision, capsular dissection, femoral head resection, acetabular preparation, component implantation, and layered closure with absorbable sutures and skin adhesive.

Main Results:

  • The primary advantage reported is cosmetic, with patients perceiving less bodily violation.
  • The technique facilitates same-day surgery and rapid recovery protocols.
  • Patients achieve full weight-bearing on the day of surgery and can be discharged same or next day; 98% of patients under 65 can walk one mile by three weeks.

Conclusions:

  • The modified posterior mini-incision for THA provides significant cosmetic benefits and enhances patient satisfaction.
  • This approach is compatible with rapid recovery protocols, enabling early ambulation and discharge.
  • The technique demonstrates a favorable recovery trajectory with mature bone healing by six months post-operatively.
