Abstract:

Introduction:Acute blood loss represents a leading cause of death in both civilian and battlefield trauma, despite the prioritization of massive hemorrhage control by well-adopted trauma guidelines. Current Tactical Combat Casualty Care (TCCC) and Tactical Emergency Casualty Care (TECC) guidelines recommend the application of a tourniquet to treat life-threatening extremity hemorrhages. While extremely effective at controlling blood loss, the proper application of a tourniquet is associated with severe pain and could lead to transient loss of limb function impeding the ability to self-extricat

Abstract:

Although most extremity hemorrhage from trauma can be controlled with direct pressure and/or pressure dressings, the occasional uncontrolled hemorrhage can be life threatening. Tools that may be able to control such life-threatening extremity hemorrhage include hemostatic dressings, tourniquets, and several new devices that have recently become available. Hemostatic dressings, a relatively new concept, incorporate materials that increase coagulation into a dressing that is applied directly to the wound. Although the use of tourniquets has a long history, recent military conflicts have provided

Abstract:

Delivering therapeutics deep into damaged tissue during bleeding is challenging because of the outward flow of blood. When coagulants cannot reach and clot blood at its source, uncontrolled bleeding can occur and increase surgical complications and fatalities. Self-propelling particles have been proposed as a strategy for transporting agents upstream through blood. Many nanoparticle and microparticle systems exhibiting autonomous or collective movement have been developed, but propulsion has not been used successfully in blood or used in vivo to transport therapeutics. We show that simple gas-

Abstract:

Background: Guillain Barre Syndrome (GBS) is an autoimmune disease where antibodies attack the myelin sheath of peripheral nerves. The hallmark of the disease includes symmetrical quadriparesis, respiratory distress, and failure with subsequent need for mechanical ventilation. Most cases occur after a viral or bacterial infection. Other causes, such as intracranial hemorrhage, also exist, and several case studies report an association between these two pathologies. Case Report: In this report, we present the case of an elderly male patient with intracranial (IC) bleeding post-GBS. The patient

Abstract:

Metastasis may occur in any bone but more commonly occurs in the spine, pelvis, or other axial bones. Metastasis in peripheral bones located distal to the elbow or knee, so-called acrometastasis, is rare. Although the mechanism of acrometastasis development is not completely understood, it is thought to be the result of a massive dissemination of cancer cells; thus the prognosis of patients with acrometastasis is relatively poor. Here, we report the case of renal pelvic cancer with multiple acrometastases in both the upper and lower extremities without axial bone metastasis in a 68-year-old ma

ABSTRACT: A case of blackleg in a brown brocket deer (Mazama gouazoubira) associated with trauma from being hit by a car in southern Rio Grande do Sul is reported. The clinical signs included fever, dehydration and lethargy that worsened progressively until 36 hours after the accident, when the animal died. In the fore right limb, there was a comminuted closed fracture of the radius and ulna but no skin wounds were observed. Grossly, the musculature of the pelvic limbs presented hemorrhage, edema and emphysema. Microscopically, the muscles of both rear legs had necrosis, edema, hemorrhage and

Abstract:

Traumatic asphyxia is a rare syndrome caused by blunt thoracoabdominal trauma and characterized by cyanosis, edema, and subconjunctival and petechial hemorrhage on the face, neck, upper extremities, and the upper parts of the thorax. Traumatic asphyxia is usually diagnosed by history and inspection; however, the patient should be monitored more closely due to probable complications of thoracoabdominal injuries. Treatment is conservative, but the prognosis depends on the severity of the associated injuries. Herein we present a traumatic asphyxia due to an elevator accident in a 32-year-old male

Object. Stereotactic evacuation of hematoma has been reported to reduce the incidence of mortality and to improve functional outcome in patients with spontaneous putaminal hemorrhage. Stereotactic evacuation of hematoma has not been widely accepted as a standard therapy, however, because its effect on functional outcome has been regarded as marginal and there have been no randomized trials with sufficient statistical power to quantify the benefits of this procedure. The authors reassessed the value of stereotactic evacuation of hematoma by analyzing its impact on activities of living during th

AbstractExternal aortic compression (EAC) has long been used to control exsanguinating post-partum hemorrhage, but it has only recently been described in the prehospital trauma setting. This paper reports four cases where manual EAC was used during transport to manage life-threatening bleeding, twice from stab wounds, once from ruptured ectopic pregnancy, and once from severe lower-limb trauma. It showed that EAC has life-saving potential in the prehospital setting, but that safety and efficacy during transport requires the use of a hands-free compression device, such as an aortic tourniquet.

Pigmented purpuric dermatoses (PPD) include several skin diseases characterized by multiple petechial hemorrhage as consequence of capillaritis. PPD generally present with red to purple macules that progressively evolve to golden-brown color as the hemosiderin is reabsorbed. These lesions, often asymptomatic or associated with mild pruritus, usually occur on the lower extremities and may be a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge both for general practitioners and specialists in internal medicine or flebology.

This article represents the discussion of a clinical case of superior sagittal sinus thrombosis as a focal point of fatal pulmonary embolism. Pulmonary embolism is a life-threatening condition, with a mortality rate of up to 40%. The direct source of pulmonary embolism is deep vein thrombosis of the lower extremities and pelvis in 80–90% of all cases. The veins of the upper extremities and venous heart cause it less often. Pulmonary embolism in patients with cerebral venous thrombosis is observed in 1.4% of patients.Cerebral venous thrombosis is a cerebrovascular disease manifested by venous o
