Printed on acid-free paper Springer is part of Springer Science+Business Media (www.springer.com) Preface Perioperative care of the patient with a multisystem in fl ammatory (rheumatic) disease has become increasingly complex. Patients are often receiving mul- tiple medications, are at least intermittently profoundly immunosuppressed, and may have signi fi cant organ dysfunction. At the same time, perioperative medicine has evolved almost into its own subspecialty. Physicians who have expertise in managing patients with rheumatic disease infrequently spend signi fi cant amount of their time also managing patients undergoing surgical procedures, and the reverse is equally true. Hence, there is the need for a reference source offering some guidance on the management of these patients in the perioperative setting. Despite the burgeoning literature on the medical management of the surgi- cal patient, scant data have been generated regarding patients with complex rheumatic disease. Prospective trials do not generally include these patients, and retrospective reviews are few and relatively small. Thus, textbooks and review articles in this clinical area have been by necessity limited to expert opinion, and none have extensively focused on the special clinical problems that are emphasized in this text. The authors of this text have collectively done yeoman’s work in putting together a set of unique chapters which I hope that you will fi nd both readable and useful. Many of the authors when approached to write these chapters voiced concern that there were little data, let alone strong evidence, to dictate their management suggestions. My standard reply was, “Exactly; that’s why this book should be written, and why you should provide your experience based opinion.” For many of the clinical scenarios discussed in this book, it is not likely that there will ever be strong evidence to guide us in making the decisions that must, nonetheless, be made. Evidence is referenced and commented upon when available, but as editor, I pushed the authors to provide you with their best opinion (based on their extensive personal experience that few clinicians have had the opportunity to share) when high-level evidence does not exist. Our goal is to provide at least a semipaved path for rheumatologists, who infrequently manage surgical problems, and medical consultants, who only seldom encounter patients with these rheumatic diseases, to tread as they care for these patients in the periop- erative period. We all recognize that “truth” in medicine is a fl uid concept, but at the time of this writing, these contents re fl ect the best we can do. v vi Preface On a personal note, I warmly acknowledge my former partners at the University of Pennsylvania, Michael Baime and Eliot Nierman, superb gen- eral internists, who kindled my interest in medical consultation and tolerated and supported my efforts as a rheumatologist trying to learn the nuances of perioperative medicine.

  • Cardiac Hypoxic Resistance and Decreasing Lactate During Maximum
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Cardiac hypoxic resistance and decreasing lactate during maximum apnea in elite breath hold divers Thomas Kjeld1*, Jakob Møller 1, Kristian Fogh1, Egon Godthaab Hansen2, Henrik Christian Arendrup3, Anders Brenøe Isbrand4, Bo Zerahn4, Jens Højberg5, Ellen Ostenfeld6, Henrik Thomsen1, Lars Christian Gormsen 7 & Marcus Carlsson6 Breath-hold divers (BHD) enduring apnea for more than 4 min are characterized by resistance to release of reactive oxygen species, reduced sensitivity to hypoxia, and low mitochondrial oxygen consumption in their skeletal muscles similar to northern elephant seals. The muscles and myocardium of harbor seals also exhibit metabolic adaptations including increased cardiac lactate-dehydrogenase- activity, exceeding their hypoxic limit. We hypothesized that the myocardium of BHD possesses 15 similar adaptive mechanisms. During maximum apnea O-H2O-PET/CT (n = 6) revealed no myocardial perfusion defcits but increased myocardial blood fow (MBF). Cardiac MRI determined blood oxygen level dependence oxygenation (n = 8) after 4 min of apnea was unaltered compared to rest, whereas cine-MRI demonstrated increased left ventricular wall thickness (LVWT). Arterial blood gases were collected after warm-up and maximum apnea in a pool. At the end of the maximum pool apnea (5 min), arterial saturation decreased to 52%, and lactate decreased 20%. Our fndings contrast with previous MR studies of BHD, that reported elevated cardiac troponins and decreased myocardial 15 perfusion after 4 min of apnea. In conclusion, we demonstrated for the frst time with O-H2O-PET/CT and MRI in elite BHD during maximum apnea, that MBF and LVWT increases while lactate decreases, indicating anaerobic/fat-based cardiac-metabolism similar to diving mammals.
