Join Brig (Dr) J Muthukrishnan in this engaging episode of our medical podcast as he hosts Lt Col (Dr) Kislay Kishore, an eminent pulmonologist from the Army Institute of Cardiothoracic Sciences, to discuss pleural effusion. Dive into the causes, symptoms, and diagnostic challenges of this common yet complex condition. Lt Col (Dr) Kishore shares his extensive clinical experience, providing valuable insights into identifying and understanding pleural effusion.

On this episode - part 2/2 if you will - we continue our discussion of pleural disease with a focus on hemothorax & management of bronchopleural fistulas. Small tube or large tube? When do you call in the reinforcements? What about endobronchial valves for persistent air leaks? Learn the answers to these questions - and so much more -n with Dr. Mike Sobieszczyk our expert interventionalist! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

In this episode, host Alyssa Watson, DVM, welcomes back Andrew Linklater, DVM, DACVECC, to talk about his recent Clinician's Brief article, “Top 5 Causes of Pleural Effusion in Dogs.” Dr. Linklater reviews what makes an effusion a transudate, exudate, or something in between. He then details his top effusion causes—hemothorax, chylothorax, pyothorax, nonseptic effusion, hydrothorax, and an honorable mention to pneumothorax.Resource:https://www.cliniciansbrief.com/article/pleural-effusions-fluid-lungs-chestContact:podcast@vetmedux.comWhere To Find Us:Website: CliniciansBrief.com/PodcastsYouTube: Youtube.com/@clinicians_briefFacebook: Facebook.com/CliniciansBriefLinkedIn: LinkedIn.com/showcase/CliniciansBrief/Instagram: @Clinicians.BriefX: @CliniciansBriefThe Team:Alyssa Watson, DVM - HostAlexis Ussery - Producer & Multimedia Specialist

On this episode of Critical Care Time, Nick & Cyrus revisit the pleural space! We had SO much great content we opted to split the episode into two parts. We also figured it would be nice to get an interventionalists take on this and we thus recruited Dr. Mike Sobieszczyk to help navigate this complex topic! Here we discuss things like hepatic hydrothorax, indwelling pleural catheters and all things parapneumonic effusion. Check it out and leave us a review! If you missed our first episode on pleural disease, head on back to episode 10 and get caught up. If you like what you heard here, make sure to come back in 2 weeks for the second part!

  “So much of this is just knowing what is their diagnosis, what medications are they on, what could be the root cause of this—where is their disease to begin with? There's really a lot of differential diagnosis and workup that has to be thought about, you know, when you're dealing with shortness of breath and pulmonary toxicities,” Beth Sandy, MSN, CRNP, OCN®, thoracic medical oncology nurse practitioner at the Abramson Cancer Center at the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia, told Jaime Weimer, MSN, RN, AGCNS-BS, AOCNS®, manager of oncology nursing practice at ONS, during a discussion about just a few of the pulmonary toxicities oncology nurses may encounter in patients receiving pharmaceutical cancer treatments.

So, when we inhale, we're inhaling oxygen, and we need that gas exchange to occur in the alveoli, which are the tiny, little bubble-like structures within the periphery of the lungs. And they're communicating with tiny, itty-bitty little blood vessels. And that's where the gas exchange occurs, where you get rid of the carbon dioxide from the blood and you get oxygen to the blood. And what ends up happening is there is, for whatever reason it may be, that gas exchange can't occur, and that can result in so many different forms from different toxicities, whether there's an inflammation causing the alveoli not to work correctly, whether there's an obstruction where there's literally something obstructing the air getting into the lungs, or whether there's compression from an external source like a fusion or something like that that is pressing against the lungs where that gas exchange cannot occur.” TS 2:36  “Pulmonary embolism, I'll tell you, is one of the most common things that we see in cancer. As a matter of fact, often patients are diagnosed with cancer because they present with a pulmonary embolism into the E.R. (emergency room) and there's really not a lot of reasons why healthy-otherwise patients develop a PE [pulmonary embolism]. So, we start looking for cancer. So, just having cancer in general puts you in that hypercoagulable state. . . . And then, being on chemotherapy increases that risk.” TS 6:38  “I think we need to really make sure that they're compliant. We need to make sure they're not having bleeding. Are you having significant bruising anywhere? Are you having unprovoked nosebleeds? And by that, I mean, I always tell people, ‘Were you just sitting watching TV and it started dripping?' versus, ‘Oh, I blew my nose and some blood came out.' Okay, well, that is probably pretty common side effect of this and should stop quickly.” TS 12:06  “The problem is the majority of these patients have metastatic disease or an incurable cancer. So, we prefer not to stop it [PE medication] in those patients because if you think about it, their risk comes from the cancer. And we're not getting rid of that if they have metastatic disease. I think for those patients with metastatic disease, as long as they're tolerating it, they're not having bleeding events, we will typically tend to just keep them on it.” TS 13:09  “The main difference with the targeted therapies is it tends to be worse, and it's not something that you can rechallenge. And I think that's kind of one of the most important things to think about here. In immunotherapy, it's like, okay, it's T-cell mediated; we gave you corticosteroids; it calmed itself down. And a lot of times we can rechallenge, and we don't necessarily see it again. Whereas with targeted therapies, you have to be much more cautious. If you look at the package inserts for the EGFR and ALK inhibitors, most of them are going to tell you this is not something you ever rechallenge. Any kind of symptomatic pneumonitis, you're going to permanently discontinue the drug. Because if you give it again, it's going to recur in a pretty bad way, where corticosteroids may not even be helpful again even if you rechallenge them.” TS 17:52  “What can happen in cancer, typically, thoracic cancers—so lung cancer, mesothelioma for sure, thymic cancers like thymomas and thymic carcinomas—often will have pleural effusion or pleural disease as well. But when cancer cells get into that fluid, there's irritation which causes an increase in the amount of fluid there. And then what happens is when that space, that pleural space, is now enlarged with fluid or engorged with fluid, a few things occur here. Patients are short of breath because it's a pressure gradient there. So, you're trying to inhale against this fluid-filled cavity that's making it hard. So, often patients will describe it as it feels like someone's giving you a really tight hug and they won't stop.” TS 21:59  “There is another procedure called a talc pleurodesis, where you can have a procedure where you inject some powder in there that will kind of dry it up. The downside of that is that it kind of fuses the pleura to the lung, so there can be some complications there, some pain, and decreased lung function just from doing that, but it can be an easy fix that you certainly don't want to have an indwelling catheter there.” TS 25:11  “So, patients need to know, if they are short of breath at all, call us; let us know. The other thing that's important is know with their baseline vital signs are, especially their pulse ox. You know, some people, their pulse oximetry may be in the low 90s or upper 80s at baseline. We need to know that because there's a big difference if a patient has, you know, they're living at 99% versus 91% normally. Because if they come in and they live at 99 and they're 91, that's a huge drop. But if they come in and they were 91 to begin with and they're 90, that's not a big difference. So, we really do need to make sure we know what their baseline is before they're starting any treatments.” TS 29:18  “This is not something that you want to downplay. You can't sit there and say, you know, ‘Oh, they smoke a lot, so it's probably that.' Or, ‘They have this type of cancer, so it's probably that.' I think this is something that you have to take shortness of breath seriously, and you have to work up and understand and know your patient. But for the most part, this is not something you're going to just triage to the next day or to a few days later. You're going to need some kind of urgent intervention or workup to be done pretty quickly.” TS 32:54  “I think the biggest misconception is that they can't be treated even if they're severe. Most of these things can be reversed. Part of it is just diagnosing it at first and then going from there and starting the appropriate treatment strategy.” TS 33:29

This episode covers pleural effusions.Written notes can be found at https://zerotofinals.com/medicine/respiratory/pleuraleffusion/ or in the respiratory section of the 2nd edition of the Zero to Finals medicine book.The audio in the episode was expertly edited by Harry Watchman.

In this panel episode recorded at SIR 2023, Drs. Stephen Hunt, Chuck Martin, and Gaurav Gadodia update us on current applications and future directions of augmented reality in interventional radiology. --- CHECK OUT OUR SPONSOR Medtronic Ellipsys Vascular Access System https://www.medtronic.com/ellipsys --- EARN CME Reflect on how this Podcast applies to your day-to-day and earn free AMA PRA Category 1 CMEs: https://earnc.me/voyqG5 --- SHOW NOTES Dr. Hunt explains the differences between virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), and mixed reality (MR) since there is increasing levels of overlap between virtual and real worlds with each category . He notes that all three are being explored in surgical fields, especially orthopedics and neurosurgery. Within IR, augmented reality can be used to adjust images and subtract out respiratory motion, making biopsies and ablations safer and more effective. Dr. Hunt became interested in AR when his PIGI Lab at the University of Pennsylvania needed 3D models to access liver tumors in experimental mice. Additionally, AR is a useful tool for planning difficult procedures and teaching interventional procedures to trainees across the globe. Dr. Martin speaks about the intersection of medicine and industry. He directs research studies for Mediview, a company focused on bringing AR into medical imaging. Dr. Martin speaks about the important role that industry plays in commercializing an invention and getting it into operators' hands. As larger companies enter the AR space, accessibility and user interfaces will improve. Additionally, the shift towards AR product development can guide future FDA regulations. Dr. Gadodia's engineering background made him excited to enter the AR space as resident at the Cleveland Clinic. He highlights applications of AR in the non-academic setting. Using a headset could increase procedural efficiency and access to care. Finally, we discuss major shifts in industry and medicine that favor the increasing use of AR, such as industry's need for clinician input in product development, the multitude of startups working on the same issues, and the overarching goal of patient safety. --- RESOURCES Ep. 7- Lung Tumor Ablation with Dr. Stephen Hunt: https://www.backtable.com/shows/vi/podcasts/7/lung-tumor-ablation Ep. 53- International IR Volunteer Work with Dr. Stephen Hunt: https://www.backtable.com/shows/vi/podcasts/53/international-ir-volunteer-work Mediview: https://mediview.com/ Microsoft HoloLens: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/hololens Penn Image-Guided Interventions (PIGI) Lab: https://www.med.upenn.edu/pigilab/

2.19 Pleural Effusions: Transudate vs Exudate Pulmonary system review for the USMLE Step 1 Exam Pleural effusion is an abnormal accumulation of fluid in the pleural cavity. Pleural effusions can be characterized as either exudative or transudative based on the content of the extra fluid. Exudative effusions have high protein and lactate dehydrogenase content, while transudative effusions have low protein and lactate dehydrogenase content. Pleural exudates are commonly caused by lung infections, lung cancer, and inflammatory diseases. Pleural transudates are caused by increased hydrostatic pressures or decreased oncotic pressure within the lung capillaries that force fluid into the pleural cavity. Transudative effusions are not caused by inflammation, so lactate dehydrogenase content is not expected to be high. Proteins are too big to move between cells, so transudative effusions have low protein content.

In Part II of our Lung Biopsy Series Dr. Fred Lee and Dr. Christopher Beck discuss Pleural and Parenchymal Blood Patching to prevent Pneumothorax, including results of the recent JVIR article from Sept 2021. --- CHECK OUT OUR SPONSOR RADPAD® Radiation Protection https://www.radpad.com/ --- EARN CME Reflect on how this Podcast applies to your day-to-day and earn AMA PRA Category 1 CMEs: https://earnc.me/0lTQ87 --- SHOW NOTES In this episode, Dr. Fred Lee and our host Dr. Chris Beck discuss the use of parenchymal and pleural blood patches to reduce the rate of lung biopsy re-interventions. First, Dr. Lee describes why he has incorporated parenchymal blood patching at the end of most biopsies, noting that it is a straightforward procedure that only adds on a few extra minutes to the overall biopsy, and it can reduce the rate of re-intervention. Both doctors agree that minimizing the need for chest tubes can greatly improve the patient experience. Pleural blood patches are used as a salvage technique in the event of a pneumothorax. Dr. Lee walks through his process of re-inflating the lung, finishing the biopsy, and using a three-way stopcock to inject blood onto the pleural surface and along the needle track. He notes that there are other valid ways of treating intraprocedural pneumothoraces (saline, fibrin plug, etc); however, he prefers the pleural blood patch because of its liquid-to-solid clotting transition, minimal time, minimal cost, and relatively low risk. Throughout this episode, we cite data from Dr. Lee's previous publications, which are cited below. --- RESOURCES Percutaneous Lung Biopsy with Pleural and Parenchymal Blood Patching: Results and Complications from 1,112 Core Biopsies: https://www.jvir.org/article/S1051-0443(21)01202-1/fulltext CT-Guided Lung Biopsies: Pleural Blood Patching Reduces the Rate of Chest Tube Placement for Postbiopsy Pneumothorax: www.ajronline.org/doi/full/10.2214/AJR.10.6324 Pulmonary Intraparenchymal Blood Patching Decreases the Rate of Pneumothorax-Related Complications following Percutaneous CT–Guided Needle Biopsy: www.jvir.org/article/S1051-0443…6)32178-9/fulltext

We start off Part 1 of a 2 part series with Dr. Fred Lee discussing Percutaneous Lung Biopsy Technique, with tips and tricks to help your daily practice. --- CHECK OUT OUR SPONSOR RADPAD® Radiation Protection https://www.radpad.com/ --- EARN CME Reflect on how this Podcast applies to your day-to-day and earn AMA PRA Category 1 CMEs: https://earnc.me/QD39HM --- SHOW NOTES In this episode, Dr. Fred Lee and our host Dr. Chris Beck discuss tips for achieving safe and successful percutaneous lung biopsies. They start by discussing the increasing popularity of core biopsy (as opposed to fine needle aspiration), since an adequate amount of specimen is needed for genetic testing and personalized medicine. Dr. Lee emphasizes that knowing the goals of lung biopsy for each individual patient helps him decide how much specimen to collect and how the specimen should be handled. Next, Dr. Lee walks through his lung biopsy technique. He outlines the difference between conventional CT and CT with fluoroscopy. While CT with fluoroscopy can be more efficient, it poses radiation risk to the patient and the physician. To minimize radiation risks, he advises IRs to intermittently tap the foot pedal and stand lateral to the CT scanner. The doctors also discuss some of the trickiest lung regions to biopsy and ways to avoid pneumothorax. Finally, Dr. Lee comments on the choice between percutaneous lung biopsies and electromagnetic navigation bronchoscopy, noting that each procedure has different advantages and risks. He encourages interventional radiologists and interventional pulmonologists to explore these options and take evidence-based approaches. Throughout this episode, we cite data from Dr. Lee's previous publications, which are cited below. --- RESOURCES Percutaneous Lung Biopsy with Pleural and Parenchymal Blood Patching: Results and Complications from 1,112 Core Biopsies: https://www.jvir.org/article/S1051-0443(21)01202-1/fulltext
