CardioNerds Critical Care Cardiology Council members Dr. Gurleen Kaur and Dr. Katie Vanchiere meet with Dr. Yash Patel, Dr. Akanksha, and Dr. Mohammed El Nayir from Trinity Health Ann Arbor. They discuss a case of pulmonary air embolism, RV failure, and cardiac arrest secondary to an ocular venous air embolism. Expert insights provided by Dr. Tanmay Swadia. Audio editing by CardioNerds Academy intern, Grace Qiu. A 36-year-old man with a history of multiple ocular surgeries, including a complex retinal detachment repair, suffered a post-vitrectomy collapse at home. He was found hypoxic, tachycardic, and hypotensive, later diagnosed with a pulmonary embolism from ocular venous air embolism leading to severe right heart failure. Despite a mild embolic burden, the cardiovascular response was profound, requiring advanced hemodynamic support, including an Impella RP device (Abiomed, Inc.). Multidisciplinary management, including fluid optimization, vasopressors and mechanical support to facilitate recovery. This case underscores the need for early recognition and individualized intervention in cases of ocular venous air embolism. US Cardiology Review is now the official journal of CardioNerds!

Pearls- Clear Vision, Clouded Heart: Ocular Venous Air Embolism with Pulmonary Air Embolism, RV Failure, and Cardiac Arrest Hypoxia, hypotension and tachycardia in a patient following ocular instrumentation are classic findings suggestive of pulmonary embolism from possible air embolism. The diagnosis of RV failure is based on clinical presentation, echocardiographic findings (such as McConnell's sign), and invasive hemodynamic assessment via right heart catheterization. Mechanical circulatory support can be considered as a temporary measure for patients with refractory RV failure. Central Figure: Approach to Pulmonary Embolism with Acute RV Failure Notes - Clear Vision, Clouded Heart: Ocular Venous Air Embolism with Pulmonary Air Embolism, RV Failure, and Cardiac Arrest 1. What is an Ocular Venous Air Embolism (VAE), and how can it be managed in critically ill patients? An Ocular Venous Air Embolism is defined as the entry of air into the systemic venous circulation through the ocular venous circulation, often during vitrectomy procedures. Early diagnosis is key to preventing cardiovascular collapse in cases of Ocular Venous Air Embolism (VAE).  The goal is to stop further air entry. This can be done by covering the surgical site with saline-soaked dressings and checking for air entry points. Adjusting the operating table can help, especially with a reverse Trendelenburg position for lower-body procedures. The moment VAE is suspected, discontinue nitrous oxide and switch to 100% oxygen. This helps with oxygenation, speeds up nitrogen elimination, and shrinks air bubbles. Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy can reduce bubble size and improve oxygenation, especially in cases of cerebral air embolism, when administered within 6 hours of the incident. Though delayed hyperbaric oxygen therapy can still offer benefits, the evidence is mixed. VAE increases right heart strain, so inotropic agents like dobutamine can help boost cardiac output, while norepinephrine supports ventricular function and systemic vascular resistance, but this may also worsen pulmonary resistance.  Aspiration of air via multi-orifice or Swan-Ganz catheters has limited success, with success rates ranging from 6% to 16%. In contrast, the Bunegin-Albin catheter has shown more promise, with a 30-60% success rate. Catheterization for acute VAE-induced hemodynamic compromise is controversial, and there's insufficient evidence to support its ...

A pulmonary embolism is a condition in which vessels in the lungs are blocked by a thrombus or other material that has traveled from somewhere else in the body. This is usually a result of a venous thromboembolism, but can also be due to amniotic fluid, air or fat embolus, or tumor material in patients with cancer. A key thing to understand about pulmonary embolism is that the airway is not occluded. In pulmonary embolism, one or more blood vessels are occluded. What this means is that blood coming from the right side of the heart isn't able to pass freely through the pulmonary vasculature to participate in gas exchange, which negatively affects perfusion. In this episode you'll learn: Pulmonary embolism pathophysiology Which of your patients are at highest risk for having a PE Common signs and symptoms of PE Priority nursing assessments Tests utilized to evaluate or diagnose PE Treatments for PE, including pharmacological and surgical And more!

Dyspnea After Pulmonary Embolism: Optimal Medical Therapy in Peripheral Vascular Disease   Guest: Stan Henkin, M.D. Host: Malcolm R. Bell, M.D.   Historically, majority of clinical and research focus has been on acute management of pulmonary embolism (PE). However, long-standing functional impairment after PE is common, occurring in up to 50% of individuals with history of PE. This is termed post-PE syndrome – an underrecognized, underdiagnosed, and undertreated entity. In this podcast, experts discuss epidemiology, pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment of post-PE syndrome.   Topics Discussed: What is Post-PE syndrome? How common is it? What is your suggested work-up of patient who presents with dyspnea after PE? When should a patient be referred to a tertiary/expert center?   Connect with Mayo Clinic's Cardiovascular Continuing Medical Education online at https://cveducation.mayo.edu or on Twitter @MayoClinicCV and @MayoCVservices.

On this week's release, Cyrus and Nick revisit one of their favorite topics: Pulmonary Embolism! In this episode - a follow up to our two-parter from season 1 - we sit down with Dr. Rick Channick of UCLA to talk about his approach to PE management with a focus on catheter directed therapies & PE response teams. This episode is packed full of expert insights and practical clinical pearls. Give it a listen and let us know what you think!Risk Stratification MethodologiesWhat is the landscape of risk stratification in Pulmonary Embolism (PE)?Broadly, what interventions does each risk category group warrant?Rule of Thumb: The greater the risk to the patient, the more likely aggressive interventions will be considered.Most patients with PE are low risk:Typically treated with systemic anticoagulationExcellent prognosis High risk PE patients typically have hemodynamic involvement and can present in shock requiring emergent management :No contraindications + shock due to PE systemic thrombolysisAbsolute contraindications:Prior history of ICHKnown cerebrovascular lesionKnown malignant intracranial neoplasmNon-acute ischemic stroke, within the last 3 monthsSuspect aortic dissectionIntermediate risk patients:Management options exist and are tailored to each specific patient.Most, but not all, patients with PE deemed to be at intermediate risk will do well with systemic anticoagulation.Some patients are good candidates for catheter directed therapies such as thrombectomy or thrombolysis.Who? We don't really know with a high degree of certainty. Considerations should be made for those with numerous risk factors for poor PE-related outcomes OR those with significant cardiopulmonary reserve / excellent functional status who theoretically could benefit from more brisk reversal of their acute pulmonary hypertension.See more in depth show notes at criticalcaretime.com Hosted on Acast.

PE's (or Pulmonary Emboli) are a key part of Emergency Care, something that many of us will consider as a differential diagnosis multiple times of a daily basis, in a similar way to acute coronary syndrome, so we need to be absolute experts on the topic! A PE normally occurs when a Deep Vein Thrombosis shoots off to the pulmonary arterial tree, occurring in 60-120 per 100,000 of the population per year The inhospital mortality is 14% and the 90 day mortality is around 20%. But this is proportional to its size, and risk stratifying PE's once we've got the diagnosis is really important. PE is a real diagnostic challenge and less than 1 in 10 who are investigated for a PE end up with the diagnosis, so knowing the risk factors, associated features and thresholds for work up are really important. There are some key concepts in risk stratification and particularly in test thresholds that we'll cover in this episode that are applicable to all of our practice…..we're excited! Getting these right helps us to avoid missing the diagnosis and equally importantly ensure we aren't ‘over testing' & ‘over diagnosing' because investigation and treatment for a PE isn't without it's own risks. In the episode we'll talk in depth about factors associated with presentation, risk factors, investigations and finally onto treatments, covering the whole spectrum from low risk PE's up to those with massive PE's and cardiac arrest. The evidence base behind the work up and treatments is truly fascinating and we hope you find this episode as eye-opening as we did to prepare for! Once again we'd love to hear any thoughts or feedback either on the website or via X @TheResusRoom! Simon, Rob & James

I'm Dr. Mark Bonta and In today's episode, Dr. Kaplovitch dives deep into the different types of blood clots and the importance of personalized treatment. He explains that not all blood clots are created equal - some predominantly affect the veins, while others can travel to the lungs and become life-threatening. We discuss the various risk factors that can lead to blood clot formation, from genetic conditions to long plane rides, and Dr. Kaplovitch offers practical advice on managing this complex disorder.We also touch on the fascinating history behind some blood thinning medications, like warfarin, which was originally used as rat poison! Dr. Kaplovitch clarifies the distinctions between its toxic properties and medical use. Throughout our conversation, we emphasize the importance of transparently counseling patients about the risks and benefits of different treatments. Dr. Kaplovitch highlights the abundance of research in the field of thrombosis and how it informs the personalized approach he takes with his patients.So join us as we simplify these complex medical concepts and explore the latest advancements in blood clot prevention and treatment.
