  • Coding Billing
    CodingCoding&Billing FEBRUARY 2020 Quarterly Editor’s Letter Welcome to the February issue of the ATS Coding and Billing Quarterly. There are several important updates about the final Medicare rules for 2020 that will be important for pulmonary, critical care and sleep providers. Additionally, there is discussion of E/M documentation rules that will be coming in 2021 that practices might need some time to prepare for, and as always, we will answer coding, billing and regulatory compliance questions submitted from ATS members. If you are looking for a more interactive way to learn about the 2020 Medicare final rules, there is a webinar on the ATS website that covers key parts of the Medicare final rules.

  • Iatrogenic Tension Pneumothorax After Surgical Tracheostomy in a Child with Idiopathic Subglottic Stenosis - Case Report
    Kosin Medical Journal 2019;34:161-167. https://doi.org/10.7180/kmj.2019.34.2.161 &D VH 5HSRUWV Iatrogenic Tension Pneumothorax after Surgical Tracheostomy in a Child with Idiopathic Subglottic Stenosis - case report Sang Yoong Park, Woo jae Yim, Joon Ho Jeong, Jeongho Kim, Seung-Cheol Lee, So Ron Choi, Jong-Hwan Lee, Chan Jong Chung Department of Anesthesiology and Pain Medicine, Dong-A University College of Medicine, Busan, Korea Tracheostomy is increasingly performed in children for upper airway anomalies. Here, an 18-month-old child (height 84.1 cm, weight 12.5 kg) presented to the emergency department with dyspnea, stridor, and chest retraction. However, exploration of the airways using a bronchoscope failed due to subglottic stenosis. Therefore, a surgical tracheostomy was successfully performed with manual mask ventilation. However, pneumomediastinum was found in the postoperative chest radiograph. Although an oxygen saturation of 99% was initially maintained, oxygen saturation levels dropped, due to sudden dyspnea, after 3 hours. A chest radiograph taken at this time revealed a left tension pneumothorax and small right pneumothorax. Despite a needle thoracostomy, the pneumothorax was aggravated, and cardiac arrest occurred. Car - diopulmonary-cerebral resuscitation was performed, but the patient was declared dead 30 minutes later. This study high - lights the fatal complications that can occur in children during tracheostomy. Therefore, close monitoring, immediate suspicion, recognition, and aggressive management may avoid fatal outcomes. Key Words : Pediatrics, Pneumomediastinum, Tension pneumothorax, Tracheostomy, Thoracostomy Tracheostomy is increasingly being performed swallowing problems, some of which can be in children, leading to improvements in neonatal life-threatening in children.

  • Complications Associated with the Use of Autologous Costal Cartilage
    Rhinoplasty Aesthetic Surgery Journal 2015, Vol 35(6) 644–652 Complications Associated With the Use © 2015 The American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, Inc. Reprints and permission: of Autologous Costal Cartilage in Rhinoplasty: [email protected] DOI: 10.1093/asj/sju117 A Systematic Review www.aestheticsurgeryjournal.com Kiran Varadharajan, MRCS, DOHNS; Priya Sethukumar, MRCS (ENT); Mohiemen Anwar, MRCS, DOHNS; and Kalpesh Patel, FRCS Abstract Background: Autologous costal cartilage grafts are common in rhinoplasty. To date, no formal systematic review of complications associated with autol- ogous costal cartilage grafting in rhinoplasty exists. Objectives: The authors review current literature to examine the rates of donor and recipient site complications associated with autologous costal carti- lage in rhinoplasty. Methods: Databases (EMBASE, PubMed, MEDLINE, and Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews) and references of pertinent articles were searched between January 1980 to July 2014 to find studies evaluating rates of complications with autologous costal cartilage grafting in rhinoplasty. These studies were then screened with specific inclusion/exclusion criteria, and data were extracted from included studies and pooled for analysis. Results: A total of 21 eligible studies were included. Pooled donor site complication incidence was pneumothorax (0.1%), pleural tear (0.6%), infection (0.6%), seroma (0.6%), scar-related problems (2.9%), and severe donor site pain (0.2%). Pooled recipient site complications were as follows: warping (5.2%), infection (2.5%), displacement/extrusion (0.6%), graft fracture (0.2%), and graft resorption (0.9%). Conclusions: Autologous costal rhinoplasty remains a safe procedure, but is associated with not insignificant rates of minor recipient site complications, such as warping.

This is an open access article distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited. Use of thrombolytic therapy in pulmonary embolism is restricted in cases of massive embolism. It achieves faster lysis of the thrombus than the conventional heparin therapy thus reducing the morbidity and mortality associated with PE. The compartment syndrome is a well-documented, potentially lethal complication of thrombolytic therapy and known to occur in the limbs involved for vascular lines or venepunctures. The compartment syndrome in a conscious and well-oriented patient is mainly diagnosed on clinical ground with its classical signs and symptoms like disproportionate pain, tense swollen limb and pain on passive stretch. However these findings may not be appropriately assessed in an unconscious patient and therefore the clinicians should have high index of suspicion in a patient with an acutely swollen tense limb. In such scenarios a prompt orthopaedic opinion should be considered. In this report, we present a case of acute compartment syndrome of the right forearm in a 78 years old male patient following repeated attempts to secure an arterial line for initiating the thrombolytic therapy for the management of massive pulmonary embolism.

Int Arch Otorhinolaryngol 2019;23:125–130. Abstract Introduction Vocal cord dysfunction is characterized by unintentional paradoxical vocal cord movement resulting in abnormal inappropriate adduction, especially during inspiration; this predominantly manifests as unresponsive asthma or unexplained stridor. It is prudent to be well informed about the condition, since the primary presentation may mask other airway disorders. Objective This descriptive study was intended to analyze presentations of vocal cord dysfunction in a tertiary care referral hospital. The current understanding regarding the pathophysiology and management of the condition were also explored. Methods A total of 27 patients diagnosed with vocal cord dysfunction were analyzed based on demographic characteristics, presentations, associations and examination findings. The mechanism of causation, etiological factors implicated, diagnostic considerations and treatment options were evaluated by analysis of the current literature. Results Therewasastrongfemalepredilection noted among the study population (n ¼ 27), which had a mean age of 31. The most common presentations were stridor Keywords (44%) and refractory asthma (41%).
