First described by Aubaniac in 1952, central venous catheterization, or central line placement, is a time-honored and tested technique of quickly accessing the major venous system. Benefits over peripheral access include greater longevity without infection, line security in situ, avoidance of phlebitis, larger lumens, multiple lumens for rapid administration of combinations of drugs, a route for nutritional support, fluid administration, and central venous pressure (CVP) monitoring. Central vein catheterization is also referred to as central line placement. Overall complication rates are as high as 15%, [1, 2, 3, 4] with mechanical complications reported in 5-19% of patients, [5, 6, 7] infectious complications in 5-26%, [1, 2, 4] and thrombotic complications in 2-26%. [1, 8] These complications are all potentially life-threatening and invariably consume significant resources to treat. Placement of a central vein catheter is a common procedure, and house staff require substantial training and supervision to become facile with this technique. A physician should have a thorough foreknowledge of the procedure and its complications before placing a central vein catheter. The supraclavicular approach was first put into clinical practice in 1965 and is an underused method for gaining central access. It offers several advantages over the infraclavicular approach to the subclavian vein. At the insertion site, the subclavian vein is closer to the skin, and the right-side approach offers a straighter path into the subclavian vein. In addition, this site is often more accessible during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and during active surgical cases. Finally, in patients who are obese, this anatomic area is less distorted.

Pericardiocentesis is the aspiration of fluid from the pericardial space that surrounds the heart. This procedure can be life saving in patients with cardiac tamponade, even when it complicates acute type A aortic dissection and when cardiothoracic surgery is not available. [1] Cardiac tamponade is a time sensitive, life-threatening condition that requires prompt diagnosis and management. Historically, the diagnosis of cardiac tamponade has been based on clinical findings. Claude Beck, a cardiovascular surgeon, described 2 triads of clinical findings that he found associated with acute and chronic cardiac tamponade. The first of these triads consisted of hypotension, an increased venous pressure, and a quiet heart. It has come to be recognized as Beck's triad, a collection of findings most commonly produced by acute intrapericardial hemorrhage. Subsequent studies have shown that these classic findings are observed in only a minority of patients with cardiac tamponade. [2] The detection of pericardial fluid has been facilitated by the development and continued improvement of echocardiography. [3] Cardiac ultrasound is now accepted as the criterion standard imaging modality for the assessment of pericardial effusions and the dynamic findings consistent with cardiac tamponade. With echocardiography, the location of the effusion can be identified, the size can be estimated (small, medium, or large), and the hemodynamic effects can be examined by assessing for abnormal septal motion, right atrial or right ventricular inversion, and decreased respiratory variation of the diameter of the inferior vena cava

Video-assisted thoracoscopic talc pleurodesis is a highly effective technique to manage recurrent pneumothorax or pleural effusion.Surgical treatment using thoracoscopy may hasten postoperative recovery and reduce hospital stay.

Spontaneous pneumothorax is a life-threatening condition in patients with severe underlying lung disease; thus, tube thoracostomy is the procedure of choice in SSP. Pleurodesis decreases the risk of recurrence, as does thoracotomy or video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) to excise the bullae

Pericardial window is used diagnostically and, more often, therapeutically for drainage of accumulated pericardial fluid (a condition that most often occurs after cardiac surgery but has many other possible causes). The pericardium envelops the heart like a cocoon; its cardiac filling can be impaired when this cavity fills with excess fluid. When the limited space between the noncompliant pericardium and heart is acutely filled with blood or fluid, cardiac compression and tamponade may result. Pericardial window in combination with systemic chemotherapy may also prevent accumulation of large fluid volumes in patients with neoplastic pericardial disease. [1, 2] Indications The following are indications for a pericardial window [6] : Symptomatic pericardial effusions Asymptomatic pericardial effusions that warrant a pericardial window for diagnosis Hemodynamically stable patients with an undiagnosed pericardial effusion (a thoracoscopic approach is ideal) Coexisting pericardial, pleural, or pulmonary pathology that requires diagnosis or therapy (a thoracoscopic approach is ideal) Known benign effusions that reaccumulate after aspiration Drainage of a purulent pericardial effusion Early fungal or tuberculous pericarditis in which resection of the pericardium is required to prevent future pericardial constriction Use as part of the mediastinal debridement, in patients with descending mediastinitis

If you look at someone’s back, you’ll see that the spine runs straight down the middle. When a person has scoliosis, their backbone curves to the side. The angle of the curve may be small, large or somewhere in between. But anything that measures more than 10 degrees is considered scoliosis. Doctors may use the letters “C” and “S” to describe the curve of the backbone. You probably don’t look directly at too many spines, but what you might notice about someone with scoliosis is the way they stand. They may lean a little or have shoulders or hips that look uneven. What Causes Scoliosis? In as many as 80% of cases, doctors don’t find the exact reason for a curved spine. Scoliosis without a known cause is what doctors call “idiopathic.” Some kinds of scoliosis do have clear causes. Doctors divide those curves into two types -- structural and nonstructural. In nonstructural scoliosis, the spine works normally, but looks curved. Why does this happen? There are a number of reasons, such as one leg’s being longer than the other, muscle spasms, and inflammations like appendicitis. When these problems are treated, this type of scoliosis often goes away. In structural scoliosis, the curve of the spine is rigid and can’t be reversed

Coronary artery bypass surgery, also known as coronary artery bypass graft (CABG, pronounced "cabbage") surgery, and colloquially heart bypass or bypass surgery, is a surgical procedure to restore normal blood flow to an obstructed coronary artery. https://goo.gl/jCYutL

http://vencer-la-diabetes-rapido.info-pro.co/ Como Controlar La Diabetes Tipo 2 Naturalmente Sin Medicamentos, Pre Diabetes Y Diabetes Tipo 1. https://youtu.be/BOSkQ5MnjT0 Que es la Insulina? Una definición practica sin adentrarnos en terminos estrictamente medicos es que la insulina es una hormona formada por 51 aminoácidos. Dentro del páncreas, las células beta producen la hormona llamada insulina. Con cada comida, las células beta liberan insulina para ayudar al cuerpo a utilizar o almacenar en la sangre la glucosa que se obtiene de los alimentos. Su déficit provoca la diabetes mellitus y su exceso provoca hiperinsulinismo con hipoglucemia. En las personas con diabetes tipo 1, el páncreas no produce insulina. Las células beta han sido destruidas y se necesitan inyecciones de insulina para utilizar la glucosa de las comidas. Las personas con diabetes tipo 2 producen insulina, pero sus cuerpos no responden bien a la misma. Algunas personas con diabetes tipo 2 necesitan medicamentos para la diabetes o inyecciones de insulina para ayudar a su cuerpo a utilizar la glucosa para obtener energía. * La insulina no se puede tomar como una píldora, ya que se descompone durante la digestión al igual que la proteína en los alimentos. Se debe inyectar en la grasa debajo de la piel para que llegue a la sangre. Existen diferentes tipos de insulina en función de la rapidez con que trabajan, y en funcion de su duración. La insulina viene en diferentes concentraciones, la más común es U-100. Tipos de insulina: * De Acción Rápida: Comienza a trabajar unos 15 minutos después de la inyección, con picos en aproximadamente 1 hora, y continúa trabajando por un tiempo de 2 a 4 horas. Tipos: Insulina glulisina (Apidra), la insulina lispro (Humalog) y la insulina aspart (NovoLog). * Regular o de Acción Corta: Generalmente llega al torrente sanguíneo a los 30 minutos después de la inyección, picos de entre 2 a 3 horas después de la inyección, y es efectiva durante aproximadamente 3 a 6 horas. Tipos: Humulin R, Novolin R * De Acción Intermedia: Generalmente llega al torrente sanguíneo de aproximadamente 2 a 4 horas después de la inyección, picos de 4 a 12 horas y eseficaz durante aproximadamente 12 a 18 horas. Tipos: NPH (Humulin N, Novolin N) * De Acción Prolongada: Alcanza el torrente sanguíneo varias horas después de la inyección y tiende a disminuir los niveles de glucosa de manera bastante uniforme durante un período de 24 horas. Tipos: La insulina detemir (Levemir) y la insulina glargina (Lantus) Nota: Esta información debes consultarla siempre con tu medico especialista. La insulina Tiene 3 Características: El inicio: Es el tiempo antes de que la insulina alcance el torrente sanguíneo y se inicie la reducción de la glucosa en sangre. Pico: Es el tiempo durante el cual la insulina está surtiendo el máximo efecto en términos de reducción de la glucosa en sangre. La duración: Es cuánto tiempo la insulina continúa reduciendo la glucosa sanguínea.
