Pulmonary Hemorrhage

ExERCISE-INDUCED PULMONARy HEMORRHAGE

Exercise-induced pulmonary hemorrhage (EIPH) occurs in horses that race at high speeds, such as Thoroughbred and Standardbred racehorses. The disease is almost unknown in endurance horses or draft breeds. As a general rule, the more intense the exercise or higher the speed attained, the greater the proportion of horses with EIPH. The prevalence of EIPH varies with the method used to detect it a...

Pulmonary Hemorrhage in Systemic

Reported here is the first case of massive infrapuhnonary hemorrhage emerging in the setting of systemic necrotizing vasculitis associated with hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAG)-positive viral hepatitis. Demonstration of circulating immune complexes, cryoglobulins containing both HBsAg and RBsAb, and resolution of the symptoms following immunosuppressive therapy suggest an immune complex medi...

Pulmonary artery catheter-induced hemorrhage.

Pulmonary artery rupture by a flow-directed balloon-tipped catheter is a rare complication if guidelines for insertion of catheters are strictly applied. It should be stressed that the need for a "confirmed" wedge pressure should be weighed against the very real risk of this potentially fatal complication. Users of this catheter should expect and anticipate distal migration of the catheter tip....

Efficacy of Tranexamic Acid in Severe Pulmonary Hemorrhage in a Asphyctic Neonate

Pulmonary hemorrhage (PH) is rarely seen in neonates and generally occurs based on the pathological process as perinatal asphyxia. Additionally, hypothermia treatment can be associated with thrombocytopenia and hemorrhage in term infants. Generally, PH is severe and persistant hemorrhage can related to neonatal mortality. Sometimes, supportive therapies such as positive-end expiratory pressure ...
