    Thoracic Cage and Thoracic Inlet Professor Dr. Mario Edgar Fernández. Parts of the body The Thorax Is the part of the trunk betwen the neck and abdomen. Commonly the term chest is used as a synonym for thorax, but it is incorrect. Consisting of the thoracic cavity, its contents, and the wall that surrounds it. The thoracic cavity is divided into 3 compartments: The central mediastinus. And the right and left pulmonary cavities. Thoracic Cage The thoracic skeleton forms the osteocartilaginous thoracic cage. Anterior view. Thoracic Cage Posterior view. Summary: 1. Bones of thoracic cage: (thoracic vertebrae, ribs, and sternum). 2. Joints of thoracic cage: (intervertebral joints, costovertebral joints, and sternocostal joints) 3. Movements of thoracic wall. 4. Thoracic cage. Thoracic apertures: (superior thoracic aperture or thoracic inlet, and inferior thoracic aperture). Goals of the classes Identify and describe the bones of the thoracic cage. Identify and describe the joints of thoracic cage. Describe de thoracic cage. Describe the thoracic inlet and identify the structures passing through. Vertebral Column or Spine 7 cervical. 12 thoracic. 5 lumbar. 5 sacral 3-4 coccygeal Vertebrae That bones are irregular, 33 in number, and received the names acording to the position which they occupy. The vertebrae in the upper 3 regions of spine are separate throughout the whole of life, but in sacral anda coccygeal regions are in the adult firmly united in 2 differents bones: sacrum and coccyx. Thoracic vertebrae Each vertebrae consist of 2 essential parts: An anterior solid segment: vertebral body. The arch is posterior an formed of 2 pedicles, 2 laminae supporting 7 processes, and surrounding a vertebral foramen.

  • The Inter-Mammary Sticky Roll: a Novel Technique for Securing a Doppler Ultrasonic Probe to the Precordium for Venous Air Embolism Detection
    Open Access Technical Report DOI: 10.7759/cureus.719 The Inter-Mammary Sticky Roll: A Novel Technique for Securing a Doppler Ultrasonic Probe to the Precordium for Venous Air Embolism Detection David R. Santiago-Dieppa 1 , Arvin R. Wali 1 , Brandon C. Gabel 1 , Alexander A. Khalessi 1 , Hoi Sang U 1 , John C. Drummond 2 1. Department of Neurosurgery, University of California, San Diego 2. Department of Anesthesiology, University of California, San Diego Corresponding author: David R. Santiago-Dieppa, [email protected] Abstract Venous air embolism is a devastating and potentially life-threatening complication that can occur during neurosurgical procedures. We report the development and use of the “inter-mammary sticky roll,” a technique to reliably secure a precordial Doppler ultrasonic probe to the chest wall during neurosurgical cases that require lateral decubitus positioning. We have found that this noninvasive technique is safe, and effectively facilitates a constant Doppler signal with no additional risk to the patient. Categories: Anesthesiology, Neurosurgery Keywords: venous air embolism, precordial doppler, neurosurgery, neuroanesthesia, intermammary sulcus, intermammary cleft, inter-mammary sticky roll, adhesive tape, surgical towel, probe positioning Introduction Venous air embolism (VAE) is defined as air that becomes entrained within venous structures [1]. Although a VAE can occur during any invasive intervention, the incidence during neurosurgical procedures, in particular those involving the posterior fossa, has been reported to be as high as 82.6% [2]. A precordial Doppler is the standard of care for monitoring situations in which significant risk of VAE is anticipated. VAE that remains unrecognized or untreated can rapidly result in cardiovascular collapse and death.

Corresponding Author Dr. M. Vijey Aanandhi Professor and Head, Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry and Analysis, School of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Vels Institute of Science Technology and Advanced Studies (VISTAS), Pallavaram, Chennai – 600117, India. Abstract Adverse drug reaction (ADR) is defined by the World Health Organization (WHO) as “any response to a drug which is noxious and unintended and which occurs at doses normally used in man for prophylaxis, diagnosis, or therapy of disease, or for the modification of physiological function”. The recent epidemiological studies say that the adverse drug reactions (ADRs) are fourth to sixth leading cause of death. Adverse drug reactions (ADRs) are the major reason behind the cause of morbidity and mortality, and also the leading cause of hospital admissions. ADRs negatively affect the patient’s quality of life and confidence in medications, which consequently leads to worse treatment outcomes. Monitoring of ADRs should be an ongoing, continuing and ceaseless process. The most ADRs would subside once the causative agent is discontinued or dose is being reduced; however, many ADRs results in permanent damage to the patients.
