Article Example
Tracheotomy The direction of this dilational manoeuvre is from the inside of the tracheal lumen to the outside of the neck (In/Out) and therefore completely opposite to the Out/In of other traditional percutaneous tracheostomies. The cone is then separated from the cannula, which results in it being positioned in the trachea.
Sleep surgery In adults, various surgeries treat specific causes—nasal surgeries (turbinoplasty, septoplasty, septorhinoplasty), soft palate surgeries (uvulectomy, uvulopalatopharyngoplasty), oropharyngeal surgeries (tonsillectomy, tongue base reduction), hypopharyngeal surgeries (genioglossus advancement, hyoid suspension), tracheostomies, and maxillomandibular advancement. Obstruction in adults is most often multiple level, so the most successful surgeries involve multi-level surgery.
Trauma quality improvement program TQIP addresses quality issues by explicitly addressing certain care metrics, including monitoring intracranial pressure in patients with traumatic brain injuries, measuring time to operations, measuring the placement and timing of tracheostomies, measuring the time to hemorrhage control, and documenting the use of venous thromboembolism prophylaxis.
La Rabida Children's Hospital La Rabida also offers expert care to children who are dependent on technology such as ventilators or tracheostomies, or who receive nutrition intravaneously, as well as those who are transitioning from a neonatal intensive care unit or pediatric ICU at another hospital. La Rabida serves patients who need hospitalization for weeks, months, and in some cases even longer. The hospital combines the specialized expertise of a large hospital with the personalized, patient-focused attention of a smaller facility.
Christian Guilleminault While working at the Stanford University Sleep Disorders Clinic in 1972, Guilleminault became keenly interested in reports published by Italian sleep researcher Elio Lugaresi who had reported that nocturnal hypertension was present in patients who snored. Guilleminault persuaded cardiologists John Shroeder and Ara Tilkian to spend nights in the hospital's clinical research center monitoring the systemic and pulmonary arterial blood pressure in sleeping patients. The team observed that when patients fell asleep and began snoring, prolonged pauses in their breathing (apneas) were noted that corresponded with dramatic elevations in their resting blood pressure, simulating strenuous exercise as if the patient were lifting weights. Guilleminault then went on to publish several articles illustrating dramatic improvements and reversal of sleep apnea following tracheostomies. Tracheostomy proved curative in these patients, and demonstrated reversal of cardiac arrhythmias and blood pressure abnormalities during sleep; temporarily capping these artificial airways would re-capitulate the changes of sleep apnea, further establishing the causative relationship between sleep apnea and cardiovascular abnormalities.
