  • Protocols for Injuries to the Eye Corneal Abrasion I
    PROTOCOLS FOR INJURIES TO THE EYE CORNEAL ABRASION I. BACKGROUND A corneal abrasion is usually caused by a foreign body or other object striking the eye. This results in a disruption of the corneal epithelium. II. DIAGNOSTIC CRITERIA A. Pertinent History and Physical Findings Patients complain of pain and blurred vision. Photophobia may also be present. Symptoms may not occur for several hours following an injury. B. Appropriate Diagnostic Tests and Examinations Comprehensive examination by an ophthalmologist to rule out a foreign body under the lids, embedded in the cornea or sclera, or penetrating into the eye. The comprehensive examination should include a determination of visual acuity, a slit lamp examination and a dilated fundus examination when indicated. III. TREATMENT A. Outpatient Treatment Topical antibiotics, cycloplegics, and pressure patch at the discretion of the physician. Analgesics may be indicated for severe pain. B. Duration of Treatment May require daily visits until cornea sufficiently healed, usually within twenty-four to seventy-two hours but may be longer with more extensive injuries. In uncomplicated cases, return to work anticipated within one to two days. The duration of disability may be longer if significant iritis is present. IV. ANTICIPATED OUTCOME Full recovery. CORNEAL FOREIGN BODY I. BACKGROUND A corneal foreign body most often occurs when striking metal on metal or striking stone. Auto body workers and machinists are the greatest risk for a corneal foreign body. Hot metal may perforate the cornea and enter the eye. Foreign bodies may be contaminated and pose a risk for corneal ulcers. II. DIAGNOSTIC CRITERIA A. Pertinent History and Physical Findings The onset of pain occurs either immediately after the injury or within the first twenty-four hours.

Subsequent respiratory arrest [1,2]. In recent years, new interest was raised similar case was reported few years later [2]. Common features of to HD dialysate bicarbonate concentration. After standardizing to both patients were morbid obesity, a previously stable HD sessions and an acute respiratory infection at time of hypercapnia [1,2]. HD pre-dialysis serum bicarbonate level was recommended as >22 patients with decreased ventilation reserve, due to morbid obesity inflammation malnutrition complex and comorbidities midweek mEq/L [11]. As higher dialysate bicarbonate concentration became with or without obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and/or obesity more prevalent, a large observation cohort study demonstrated hypoventilation syndrome (OHS) as well as chronic obstructive that high dialysate bicarbonate concentration was associated pulmonary disease (COPD), are at increased risk. COPD is common with worse outcome especially in the more acidotic patients among HD patients but frequently under-diagnosed [3]. Most [12]. However, still not enough attention is paid to HD dialysate COPD patients do well during HD with only mild- moderate pCO2 bicarbonate in the increasing number of patients with impaired increases and slightly decreased pH as compared to non-COPD ventilation, and to their risk of intra-dialytic exacerbation of chronic HD patients [2,4].
