Blunt Chest Trauma — Suspected Aortic Injury

Extracorporeal Rewarming From Accidental Hypothermia of Patient With Suspected Trauma

The use of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation is a new approach to rewarming patients with severe hypothermia and hemodynamic instability. There are, however, many questions regarding qualification for this technique in case of suspected or confirmed trauma.A male with confirmed accidental hypothermia (25°C) and after successful cardiopulmonary resuscitation from in-hospital cardiac arrest was...

Ultrasonographic Diagnosis of Suspected Hemopneumothorax in Trauma Patients

BACKGROUND Bleeding and trapped air in the pleural space are called hemothorax and pneumothorax, respectively. In cases where there are delays in diagnosis and treatment, the mortality rates due to hemopneumothorax can be significant. Hemopneumothorax is characterized by decreased lung sounds or chest percussion and subcutaneous emphysema. Diagnosis of pneumothorax and hemothorax can be achieve...

new semigroup compactifications via the enveloping semigroups of associated flows

this thesis deals with the construction of some function algebras whose corresponding semigroup compactification are universal with respect to some properies of their enveloping semigroups. the special properties are of beigan a left zero, a left simple, a group, an inflation of the right zero, and an inflation of the rectangular band.

Radiology Rounds - January 2010 - Imaging Suspected Cervical Spine Trauma

Figure 1. Cervical spine CT demonstrates normal alignment without fracture in a patient who experienced a minor hyperflexion injury. Each year in the United States and Canada, more than 13 million patients are treated for injuries that put them at risk of injury to the cervical spine. Few of these patients have a cervical spine fracture or other serious injury to the neck. It has been common pr...
