Inhaled Nitric Oxide in Acute Respiratory Distress SyndromeMuhammad Asim Rana
A simple description of mechanism how nitric oxide helps in treatment of refractory hypoxemia in ARDS. Intended to teach respiratory therapists and ICU physicians.
A neglected topic for way too long, the interest in fluid therapy seems to be quickly rising as the medical community is making a shift from looking at fluids as a mere method of stabilization towards the appreciation of its relevant side effects.
Many questions remain to be answered indeed:
Is the upgrade from saline 0.9% to balanced crystalloids worth the extra cost?
Does HES still have a place in the OR?
Do we have to fill the gap left by HES on ICU with crystalloids, other colloids or even albumin?
Is it really impossible to avoid fluid overload by using only crystalloids?
Is there still a definitive place for human albumin?
How do we treat and monitor specific patient populations, like patients with trauma, liver failure, brain edema and right heart failure among others?
How do we avoid a one-size-fits-all regimen in perioperative goal-directed therapy?
What with the fluids beyond resuscitation?
And what do the authors of the big fluid trials do in real life themselves?
The 9th International Fluid Academy Day will again be a 1 day concise meeting on all aspects of fluid managament and hemodynamic monitoring in the critically ill.

High frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV) is a type of mechanical ventilation that uses a constant distending pressure (mean airway pressure [MAP]) with pressure variations oscillating around the MAP at very high rates (up to 900 cycles per minute). This creates small tidal volumes, often less than the dead space.

A brief yet comprehensive coverage of ICU role in ECMO cases. Presentation has been prepared in order to help ICU fellows and registrars to understand the importance of their role and to know necessary actions they have to take in case of need.
A simplified description of basal ganglia stroke to help understand the clinical scenarios where patients present with neurological symptoms not clearly pointing towards possibility of stroke.
Vertebral artery pseudo-aneurysms and dissections are known to occur as a result of mechanical
manipulations of the cervical region, traumatic injury, spontaneously and iatrogenic injury because of central
venous catheterization. Central venous lines have become an integral part of patient care, but they are
not without complications. Vertebral artery injury (leading to pseudo-aneurysm and dissection) is one of
the rarer complications of central venous catheter placement. We report a case of inadvertent vertebral
artery catheterization during a dialysis catheter placement which subsequently demonstrated arterial
blood. Duplex ultrasound and computed tomographic (CT) scan confirmed vertebral artery catheterization.
It was successfully treated with open surgical technique by the vascular surgeon because of the size of
catheter and subsequent requirement of artery repair. There were no neurological sequelae. Open surgical
repair remains the gold standard of treatment. Endovascular repair of vertebral artery pseudo-aneurysms
has been described with promising outcomes, but long-term results are lacking. This case report describes
the rare iatrogenic event of vertebral artery injury and reviews its etiology, diagnosis, complications, and management.
From eye drops to icu, a case report of three side effects of ophthalmic timo...Muhammad Asim Rana
Timolol Maleate (also called Timolol) is a nonselective beta-adrenergic blocker and a class II antiarrhythmic drug, which is used
to treat intraocular hypertension. It has been reported to cause systemic side effects especially in elderly patients with other
comorbidities.These side effects are due to systemic absorption of the drug and it is known that Timolol is measurable in the serum
following ophthalmic use. Chances of life threatening side effects increase if these are coprescribed with other cardiodepressant
drugs like calcium channel or systemic beta blockers. We report a case where an elderly patient was admitted with three side
effects of Timolol and his condition required ICU admission with mechanical ventilation and temporary transvenous pacing.The
case emphasizes the need of raising awareness among physicians of such medications about the potential side effects and drug
interactions. A close liaison among patient’s physicians is suggested.

The best use of systemic corticosteroids in the intensive care units, reviewMuhammad Asim Rana
Corticosteroids are one of the most common medications that are used in the intensive care units (ICUs);
corticosteroids are used for a variety of indications, including septic shock, acute respiratory distress syndrome
(ARDS), bacterial meningitis, tuberculous meningitis, lupus nephritis, severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
(COPD) exacerbations and many others.
Corticosteroids are associated with many severe side effects that affect morbidity and mortality of the patients like
increased risk of infections, glucose intolerance, hypokalemia, sodium retention, edema, hypertension, myopathy
etc. In order to make the best use of these medications and to minimize the unwanted side effects we should follow
some particular protocol. Please keep in our mind that there is controversy about dosing and tapering of steroids, so
effort has been made to include the best available evidence.
This review discusses mainly the most common indications of corticosteroids in ICU, dosing of corticosteroids in
those indications and how to taper corticosteroids according to the best evidence that recommends their use.
Literature search was done using Medline, BMJ, Uptodate, Chochrane database, Google scholar and the best
evidence based guidelines in which steroids are recommended to treat ICU related disorders. Sex hormones are not
discussed in this review since its use is rare in the intensive care units.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

2. Patient’s Data
• 37 yrs old alcoholic female with history of
recurrent gall stones.
• Admitted with pancreatitis
• Lipase 1120, Amylase 560.
• 5th day developed SOB, worsened so electively
intubated.
• FiO2 90%, Sat O2 78%, PaO2 48.
10. • The pt is on PCV with the following settings
PEEP=12, FiO2=1.0, IP=18, PIP=28, Vt=350 ml
(down from 450ml) & Slope is set at the
slowest possible flow delivery.
• ABG’s on these settings are:
• 7.28/49/53 (↓O2 ↑CO2 from previous).
• The RT notices that PIP reaches only
23cmH2O. No leaks are found in the system.
• What recommendations might be made to
improve this patient’s ABG’s?
11. Decrease the Rise Time
Better ventilation is actually accomplished by
adjusting the slope to achieve a faster
pressure delivery and increase the Vt,
The PIP will return to 28 cm H2O and the
patient's ABG values will improve without
further adjustments
