Email: [email protected]. Abstract: The endoscopic management of persistent or prolonged air leak (PAL) has gained popularity, not only in post-surgical PAL but also in non-surgical scenarios. The literature that supports an endoscopic approach is restricted to case series, case reports, retrospective and some small prospective studies. Every patient who suffers from PAL secondary to bronchopleural fistula (BPF) or alveolopleural fistula (APF) should always be evaluated to determine surgical repair candidacy. There have been a number of articles that summarize the bronchoscopic modalities for the management of PAL, but none emphasize the initial evaluation with an algorithmic approach or discuss how to follow-up these patients in the immediate post- treatment phase and long-term.

  • Emerging Uses of Capnography in Emergency Medicine in Emergency Capnography Uses of Emerging
    Emerging Uses of Capnography in Emergency Medicine WHITEPAPER INTRODUCTION The Physiologic Basis for Capnography Capnography is based on a discovery by chemist Joseph Black, who, in 1875, noted the properties of a gas released during exhalation that he called “fixed air.” That gas—carbon dioxide (CO2)—is produced as a consequence of cellular metabolism as the waste product of combining oxygen and glucose to produce energy. Carbon dioxide exits the body via the lungs. The concentration of CO2 in an exhaled breath reflects cardiac output and pulmonary blood flow as the gas is transported by the venous system to the right side of the heart and then pumped into the lungs by the right ventricle. Capnographs measure the concentration of CO2 at the end of each exhaled breath, commonly known as the end- tidal carbon dioxide (EtCO2). As long as the heart is beating and blood is flowing, CO2 is delivered continuously to the lungs for exhalation. An EtCO2 value outside the normal range in a patient with normal pulmonary blood flow indicates a problem with ventilation that may require immediate attention. Any deviation from normal ventilation quickly changes EtCO2, even when SpO2—the indirect measurement of oxygen saturation in the blood—remains normal. Thus, EtCO2 is a more sensitive and rapid indicator of ventilation problems than SpO2.1 Why EtCO2 Monitoring Is Important It is generally accepted that EtCO2 monitoring is the practice standard for determining whether endotracheal tubes are correctly placed. However, there are other important indications for its use as well. Ventilatory monitoring by EtCO2 measurement has long been a standard in the surgical and intensive care patient populations.

Place animal in right lateral recumbence Hair should not be clipped over lead site. If matted, only lightly clip, but not down to skin Prepare the lead sites w/ alcohol first, then apply ultrasound gel or KY jelly if desired. Caution: ECG paste may corrode metal skin clips For cats, place a thin layer of alcohol-saturated cotton over site, apply gel and attach skin clips Do not allow the metal clips to come in contact with metal (each other, metal exam table, etc) Increase GAIN setting on monitor for small complexes Insure that skin clips have adequate spring tension If electrical interference is encountered move electrical equipment away from the monitor and check ECG filter setting on monitor (High or Low) Note: Operating monitor with battery will reduce interference 3 SETTING UP ECG LEADS Prepare site with alcohol Use figures below for lead selection Connect lead wires to patient cable Connect patient cable to monitor Turn monitor on Metal clips must not contact metal table or each other Note: LA above is reference electrode.
