  • 1 SUPPLEMENTAL MATERIAL Use of Non-Indicated Cardiac
    SUPPLEMENTAL MATERIAL Use of Non-Indicated Cardiac Testing in Low-Risk Patients: Choosing Wisely METHODS SUPPLEMENT Data Source and Study Population Using the Medicare 40% denominator file, we identified all fee-for-service Medicare beneficiaries enrolled in Medicare Parts A, B, and D (inpatient, outpatient and prescription coverage), 2006-2011, and created six annual enrollment cohorts. We excluded beneficiaries with a gap of one or more months in fee-for-service Medicare Parts A, B, or D enrollment during a calendar year. We limited our analysis to beneficiaries aged 66-80. Beneficiary characteristics, including age, sex, race/ethnicity (black, Hispanic, other), and Medicaid enrollment, were obtained from the Medicare denominator file. Residential ZIP Codes were used to assign each beneficiary to one of 306 Dartmouth Atlas of Health Care hospital referral regions (HRRs). Information on regional physician workforce in 2006 was obtained from the Dartmouth Atlas of Health Care. Defining Low- and High-Risk Cohorts To identify annual cohorts of low-risk patients, each beneficiary was annually assigned a cardiovascular disease risk status (low or high) based on records in Medicare Carrier, Outpatient, MedPAR, Hospice and Prescription Drug Event files. For each annual enrollment cohort, beneficiaries with no evidence of significant cardiovascular disease or cardiovascular disease risk were deemed low-risk and those with such conditions were deemed high-risk. Using Hierarchical Condition Category International Classification of Disease, Ninth Revision, code lists, the following diagnoses (appearing in two physician claims or one hospital claim) were considered evidence of high cardiovascular disease risk: HIV/AIDS, diabetes, drug or alcohol abuse/dependence, shock, cardiac disease (e.g.

  • A Case of Thoracic Aortic Injury Caused by Multiple Rib Fractures
    3 Case Report Page 1 of 3 A case of thoracic aortic injury caused by multiple rib fractures Weigang Zhao#, Weiwei He#, Yi Yang, Yonghong Zhao Department of Thoracic Surgery, Shanghai Jiao Tong University Affiliated Sixth People’s Hospital, Shanghai, China #These authors contributed equally to this work. Correspondence to: Yonghong Zhao. Department of Thoracic Surgery, Shanghai Jiao Tong University Affiliated Sixth People’s Hospital, 600 Yishanlu Road, Shanghai 200233, China. Email: [email protected]. Abstract: Thoracic aortic injury is fatal but rare in blunt chest trauma, which usually requires urgent surgical treatment. It is mostly caused by posterior rib fractures. Chest wall stabilization (CWS) has been widely performed in patients with multiple rib fractures all over the world in the past two decades with satisfactory outcomes. However, the surgical treatment of posterior rib fracture within 2–3 cm from transverse process is still a difficult problem for thoracic surgeons. Under this circumstance, rib-transverse process internal fixation method was developed and widely performed for above patients at present. In this article, we presented a case of thoracic aortic injury caused by multiple rib fractures. A 54-year-old female was admitted to our hospital with dyspnea and severe chest pain caused by a falling object. Thoracic aortic injury with multiple rib fractures were diagnosed basing on image date and emergency CWS was performed for this patient. Rib-transverse process internal fixation was not performed in this case since the patients combined with transverse process fracture. We firstly performed transverse process resection combined with CWS for this patient. The results of our study showed this method is safe and feasible for patients with multiple rib fractures combined with transverse process fracture.

Traumatic diaphragmatic hernia is an uncommon injury, however its real incidence may be higher than expected. Sometimes is missed in trauma patients, and is usually associated with signicant morbidity and mortality, this analysis may improve outcomes for the trauma patient care. Methods Retrospective study of time series using and analisys database records of trauma patients at HC- Unicamp was performed to investigate the incidence, trauma mechanism, diagnosis, herniated organs, associated injuries, trauma score, morbidity, and mortality of this injury. Results Fifty-ve cases were analyzed. Blunt trauma was two-fold frequent than penetrating trauma, are associated with high grade injury and motor vehicle collision was the most common mechanism. Left side hernia was four-fold frequent than right side. Diagnose was mostly performed by chest radiography (31 cases; 56%). Associated intra-abdominal injuries were found in 37 patients (67.3%) and extra- abdominal injuries in 35 cases (63.6%).

  • Investigation of the Traumatic Rupture of the Aorta (Tra) by Simulating Real-World Accidents
    INVESTIGATION OF THE TRAUMATIC RUPTURE OF THE AORTA (TRA) BY SIMULATING REAL-WORLD ACCIDENTS Chirag S. Shah, Warren N. Hardy, King H. Yang Bioengineering Center, Wayne State University, Detroit, MI, USA Chris A. Van Ee Design Research Engineering, Novi, MI, USA Richard M. Morgan and Kennerly H. Digges The George Washington University, Ashburn, VA, USA ABSTRACT Traumatic rupture of the aorta (TRA) is one of the causes of death in automotive crashes. The risk of fatality is higher if the injury is not detected and treated promptly. Numerous laboratory experiments, retrospective studies, and theories with focus on TRA have yielded limited success. Four real-world accidents with aortic injuries to the occupants were simulated using finite element (FE) methods. Two crashes were side impact, and the other two were frontal crashes. A two-phase approach was used. For Phase 1, car-to-car interaction was simulated using vehicle FE models. These simulations were validated qualitatively and quantitatively against available crash photographs and crush data. For Phase 2, interaction between the occupant and the interior of the automobile was simulated using input obtained as a result of the first phase simulation. The occupant was a mid-sized male whole-body human FE model developed at Wayne State University. For the two side impact crashes, the peri-isthmic region demonstrated the greatest maximum principal strain (MPS) and longitudinal stress (LS). For the frontal crashes, the junction of the ascending aorta and the aortic arch was the region of greatest MPS and LS. Peak MPS and peak LS averaged within the peri-isthmic region of the aorta for the second phase FE simulations ranged from 0.072 to 0.160, and 0.93 MPa to 1.58 MPa, respectively.

ABSTRACT Ahmed Ismail ElTris Introduction: Endovascular treatment for Blunt Thoracic Aortic Injury is currently an emerging alternative as compared to traditional open repair due to superior out- comes in terms of mortality and morbidity. However, the decision to revascularize the left subclavian artery remains controversial in cases requiring the coverage of the left subclavian artery. We report our experience with endovascular stent-graft repair for blunt traumatic thoracic aorta injury. Methods: Medical records from 11 patients who underwent Thoracic Endovascular Aortic Repair (TEVAR) for Blunt Thoracic Aortic Injury (BTAI) between January 2017 to April 2019 were analysed Results: Among the 11 patients who sustained BTAI, 10 of them have been caused by motor vehicle accidents with the exception of 1 patient who sustained a fall from height. The mean Injury Severity Score is 32.72.

Cardiac tamponade, traumatic aortic injury, and hemoperitoneum were diagnosed by ultrasonography. The trauma surgeon, cardiac surgeon, and interventional radiologist discussed the prioritization of interventions. Multi-detector computed tomog- raphy was carried out first to determine the severity and extent of the injuries, followed by exploratory sternotomy to repair a left auricle rupture. A damage control laparotomy was then performed to control mesenteric bleeding. Lastly, a descending thoracic aorta injury was treated by endovascular stenting. These procedures were performed in the hybrid-angio room. The patient was discharged on postoperative day 135, without complications. Key words: 1. Trauma 2. Hybrid operation 3.

Background. Blunt thoracic aorta injury (BAI) is second only to head injury as cause of mortality in blunt trauma. While most patients do not survive till arrival at the hospital, for the remainder, prompt diagnosis and treatment greatly improve outcomes. We report an atypical presentation of BAI, highlighting the diagnostic challenges of this condition in the emergency department. Case Presentation. A previously well 25-year-old male presented 15 hours after injury hemodynamically stable with delirium. There were no signs or symptoms suggestive of BAI. Sonography showed small bilateral pleural effusions. Chest radiograph showed a normal mediastinum. Eventually, CT demonstrated a contained distal aortic arch disruption.
