Contemporary Patterns of Multiple Organ Dysfunction in Trauma
BACKGROUND Multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) is associated with poor outcomes for trauma patients. Different forms of MODS may exist and have different consequences. The ability to distinguish them clinically may have implications for prognosis and treatment. We wished to study whether prolonged MODS (PRMODS) could be observed as a distinct clinical entity to early resolving MODS (ERMO...
متن کاملSevere heat stroke with multiple organ dysfunction
Second, why were conventional cooling techniques terminated after 8 hours when the graph (Figure 1 in the report by Broessner and coworkers [1]) indicates that body temperature was effectively lowered to below 39°C (the initial goal in treatment of heat stroke)? We question the cooling technique, because aggressive conventional cooling in the intensive care unit should achieve 39°C within 1 hou...
متن کاملSevere Spasm of the Renal Artery after Blunt Abdominal Trauma Simulating End-Organ Infarction
Traumatic occlusion of the renal artery is a serious injury. Management differs according to the grade of injury. In most circumstances, emergency surgical revascularization or endovascular intervention is required. We describe the case of a child with multiorgan injuries and spasm of the main renal artery after blunt trauma simulating arterial occlusion or end-organ infarction.
متن کاملPlasma chromogranin A after severe burn trauma
BACKGROUND Chromogranin A (CgA) in plasma (P-CgA), a neuroendocrine marker of sympathetic stress, has been shown to predict mortality in medical intensive care. We hypothesized that the magnitude of CgA release would reflect stress load, and thereby injury severity in burn intensive care patients. METHODS Fifty-one consecutive patients with a burn area exceeding 10% were included. P-CgA was m...
متن کاملFertility preservation after bilateral severe testicular trauma
surgery, patient underwent collection of seminal fluid revealing a sperm count of 40 million; the sperm was then cryopreserved to guarantee a future reproductive potential. The serum testosterone level was too low and for this reason, a hormone replacement therapy was set. Three months after injury, the patient reported normal erectile and ejaculatory function. Five months after the injury, spe...
