🌊 Hypotonic Fluids🌊 Vital for: ✔ Treating Hypertonic Dehydration: Restoring fluid balance effectively. ✔ Cellular Rehydration: Ensuring optimal intracellular fluid levels. ✔ Slow Rehydration: Gradually replenishing fluids while maintaining electrolyte balance. ⛔Caution: ❌ Monitor for Raised ICP Signs: Potential exacerbation of cerebral edema. ❌ Avoid Rapid Administration: Risk of electrolyte imbalances. Stay informed for safe patient management! 💧💼 #GeneralPractice #MedicalCare #HypotonicFluids

"In the future, non-invasive continuous BP monitors will likely replace intermittent oscillometers in the operating room and the postoperative period. They will however not eliminate the need for arterial catheterization in critically ill patients." - Brand new publication by Gore et al. addressed the question of whether non-invasive continuous BP monitors have the potential to replace invasive measurements.

CT Pulmonary Angiography: Tackling Transient Contrast Interruptions TIC is a flow artefact, that consists of relatively poor contrast enhancement in the pulmonary arteries, while there is good enhancement in the SVC and also in the aorta, which seems not logic at all,This vascular phenomenon occurs when the patient performs a deep inspiration just before the scan starts, resulting in increased venous return of unopacified blood from the inferior vena cava (IVC). More unopacified blood from the IVC than opacified blood from the SVC enters the right atrium resulting in poor enhancement of the pulmonary arteries. Recommendations Avoid instructing patients to take a deep breath; instead, use commands like "hold your breath" during scans. #CT_Scan #CT_Pulmonary #CTPE #HealthCare

💨Liberate Medical commenced patient enrolment in a study investigating its neuromuscular electrical stimulator to help respiratory failure patients wean off mechanical ventilation. The device, called the VentFree Respiratory Muscle Stimulator, non-invasively reduces mechanical ventilation duration by improving expiratory muscle strength and cough. 👍Good luck to CEO Angus M. and the rest of the team in the trials. 🔗Read more: https://lnkd.in/dr3vimKa 📰 Follow Guided Solutions to receive the latest #MedTech news daily and subscribe to our weekly newsletter: https://lnkd.in/dmjvzz4G #MedicalDevices #MedicalDevice #MedicalEquipment #Medicine #Surgeons #GuidedSolutions

Are you selecting the right IV connector for your patients? With the right fast flow rate IV connector, you could restore intravascular volume, augment cardiac output, and reverse shock, regardless of the scenario. In our article, we ask what are the true impacts of rapid rate IV fluid delivery and what it means for your patient care.

Mechanical thrombectomy has revolutionized stroke treatment, offering two key techniques: aspiration thrombectomy and stent retrievers. Each method has unique strengths and challenges, from clot removal efficacy to procedural speed and safety. Understanding their differences is crucial for tailoring treatments to individual patient needs. Hybrid approaches and advancing technologies promise even better outcomes in the future. Dive deeper into the nuances of these life-saving techniques to empower informed decision-making in stroke care.

A patient presented with shortness of breath upon exertion, accompanied by clinical findings of increased jugular venous pressure and low systolic blood pressure. Bedside examination using Kosmos revealed several significant indicators: a dilated right ventricle with a positive McConnell sign, reduced systolic function, and decreased right ventricular stroke volume. Additionally, the right atrium was dilated, the left ventricle appeared small and under-filled, and there was a systolic D-shaped configuration of the interventricular septum, suggestive of right ventricular pressure overload. Furthermore, the inferior vena cava was dilated. Comment below what you think these findings suggest!
