A Novel Approach to Confirm Endotracheal Tube Depth Using Ultrasound Color Doppler: A Cadaveric Model

Ariel Daube, MD, Leroy Phillips, MD, Erin West, MS, Lorraine Ng, MD, Lindsey T Chaudoin, MD, Arthur Smerling, MD and David Kessler, MD, MSc

Article Type: Research Article | First Published: January 24, 2022

Proper endotracheal tube (ETT) depth must be confirmed immediately after intubation. We developed a novel point-of-care ultrasound examination called the cuff puff (CP) and hypothesized it would accurately confirm appropriate ETT depth in a cadaveric model. CP comprises visualization of cuff inflation using color Doppler sonography. On a single fresh frozen cadaver, a well-positioned tube was defined as the tip lying between 6.5 cm below the vocal cords and 3 cm above the carina. The ETT was pla...

Is There a Relationship between Serum D-Dimer Levels and Thorax CT Severity Score in Patients with COVID-19?: A Retrospective Analysis

Belma Cevik, MD and Kayıhan Akın, MD

Article Type: Original Article | First Published: January 15, 2022

The COVID-19 pandemic began in Wuhan (Hubei, China) in December 2019 and rapidly spread around the World. Because of RT-PCR sensitivity limitations, the radiology literature has focused on detecting the probability of infection of non-contrast CT findings. However the elevated serum D-dimer levels and its relationship with poor outcomes in COVID-19 pneumonia patients have been demonstrated. D-dimer is known as a biomarker of inflammation. Therefore, we considered that serum D-dimer levels may pr...

Arianne M Maya, BS, Kathleen R Ehresmann, MD, Moiz M Mustafa, MD, Janice A Taylor, MD, MEd, Shawn D Larson, MD, Saleem Islam, MD, MPH and Robin T Petroze, MD, MPH

Article Type: Original Article | First Published: January 21, 2022

Wide practice variation and weak guidelines exist when considering enteral feeding options and the decision to proceed with gastric or postpyloric enteral feeding in critically ill infants and children. The purpose of this pilot study is to explore provider decision making in early feeding of critically ill pediatric patients, review the indications for choice of enteral feeding access, and qualitatively explore the role of institutional culture in medical decision making. In-person structured i...

Need for Trauma Intervention and Improving Under-Triaging in Geriatric Trauma Patients: Under-Triaged or Misclassified

Gabriel Beam, MSN, RN, Kimberly Gorman, DNP, AG-ACNP-BC, CNL, CCRN, CNRN, TCRN, Siddhartha Nannapaneni, MD, Jami Zipf, BSN, RN, Thomas Simunich, MS, MBA and Russell Dumire, MD

Article Type: Original Research | First Published: January 24, 2022

Combining the Need for Trauma Intervention (NFTI) calculation with the Cribari Matrix Method (CMM) more accurately determines appropriate triage, particularly of geriatric trauma patients. These patients (>/= age 65 years) have comorbidities, increased frailty, and decreased overall functional capacity. The CMM alone does not address their increased risk of mortality secondary to inappropriate or suboptimal care; performance improvement efforts to decrease the risk of under-triage have prompted ...

Using Point-of-Care Ultrasound for Early Identification of Central Retinal Artery Occlusion

Farhan Qadeer, MD, Ramzan Judge, PharmD, BCCCP and Alina Chiccarine

Article Type: Case Report | First Published: January 22, 2022

Central Retinal Artery Occlusion (CRAO) is the partial or complete blockage of the central retinal artery presenting as acute painless monocular vision loss with increased risk in those with cardiovascular disease. Diagnosis of CRAO requires a dilated fundoscopic exam performed by an Ophthalmologist. In resource limited hospitals, access to these expertise and resources may be difficult. Early recognition of CRAO in the emergency department (ED) can lead to reduced negative consequences and redu...

Caseous Calcification of the Mitral Annulus: From Asymptomatic Lesion to Embolic Complication- Case Report

Slavica Mitrovska, MD, PhD, Sasko Jovev, Vasil Papestiev and Vesna Mitashova

Article Type: Case Report | First Published: January 24, 2022

Caseous calcification of the mitral annulus (CCMA) is a rare form of mitral annular calcification with a prevalence of 0.06% in the general population. It is considered a benign condition, but in some cases it carries a risk for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events. There is no consensus regarding treatment strategy and surgery is recommended for mitral valve dysfunction or thromboembolic events. We present a case of surgical management of caseous mass of the posterior commissures of the mi...

Triple Negative Breast Cancer (TNBC) is an aggressive variant of breast cancer with penurious prognosis and limited therapeutic options. This subtype is characterised with higher incidence rate among the younger women, aggressive tumour behaviour, with early local recurrence and distant metastasis leading to poor outcomes. In India, majority of prevalence data of TNBC is hospital based from patient treated at tertiary care hospitals or centres ranging from 10% to 43% which is evident from the va...
