Emergency situations during hair transplant and how to avoid them.DrAnilKumarGargRejuv
Hair Transplant surgery is a safe outpatient day surgery.
Emergencies are uncommon but can appear suddenly.
Many of the emergencies, but not all, are preventable through attentive pre-operative and intraoperative care.
Clinic doctors and support staff must be prepared to manage emergencies.
Potential medical conditions which may convert into life-threatening emergencies during Hair transplant are-
Medication- Lidocaine toxicity, drug interactions( beta-blockers with adrenaline, lidocaine with Dilantin ), over sedation.
Allergy/ Anaphylactic shock
Hypotension- due to hypovolemia, cardiovascular shock, vasovagal syndrome.
Cardiovascular- Angina, myocardial infarction, arrhythmias (cardiac arrest).
Pulmonary- Dyspnea, Asthma, respiratory arrest.
Neurologic- seizures, stroke
Coagulation- bleeding diathesis
Trauma- accidental injury/fall

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

2. General considerations
• Time is the essence in the hyper acute evaluation of stroke patients
• The history, physical examination , serum glucose, oxygen saturation ,
and a non contrast CT scan are sufficient in most cases to guide acute
therapy
• “Time is brain”
3. General care for all stroke patients
• ABC of life and feeding test
• Protect the ischemic penumbra and Avoid secondary ischemia
• Prevent complication
• Standard nursing care
• Rehabilitative strategies
4. Airway protection
• For every stroke patient assessing vital signs and ensuring stabilization of
airway, breathing, and circulation is part of the initial evaluation of all
patients
• Patients with decreased consciousness or bulbar dysfunction may be
unable protect their airway and those with increased intracranial pressure
due to hemorrhage, vertebrobasilar ischemia or bihemispheric ischemia
• can present with vomiting, decreased respiratory drive or muscular airway
obstruction which results in hypoventilation with a resulting increase in
CO2 may lead to cerebral vasodilation and increase ICP
• in these case intubation may be necessary to restore adequate ventilation
and to protect the airway from aspiration
5. • Stroke patient should be positioned appropriately: Flat or 30o - 45o up depending
on the condition of the patient
• Oro-tracheal secretions should be removed
• If saturation Is below 95%, put on 100% intranasal or face mask
oxygen
6. Circulation
• When a stoke patients present with hypotension a prompt cardiac
evaluation is necessary
• Hypotension should be treated with maintenance fluid
• Hypertension depending on the type of stroke can be treated with
short acting antihypertensive
7. Dysphagia
• It is a common complication of stroke and a major risk factor
for developing aspirational pneumonia
• Dysphagia related to stroke is more precisely characterized as
oropharyngeal dysphagia, defined by swallowing impairment of
the upper digestive tract
• Independent predictors of dysphagia on initial presentation
include male gender, age greater than 70, disabling stroke, and
impaired pharyngeal response
• Dysphasia usually improves spontaneously with return of safe
swallowing function by two weeks In approximately 90 percent
of patients

9. Protect the ischemic penumbra and avoid
secondary damage
• our management goal is to optimize cerebral perfusion in the
ischemic penumbra
• Hypertension management :- for ischemic stroke it is only
recommended to decrease the blood pressure if it is above 220/ 120
or if there is concomitant mi, malignant hypertension, or if rtPA is
about to be give
• Fever :- it is detrimental and should be treated with antipyretics and
surface cooling
10. • Glucose :- it should be kept below 180mg/dl and above at least 60mg/dl, a
more intensive glucose control strategy doesn’t improve outcome
• Cerebral edema :- it peaks at the 2nd and 3rd day but couses mass effect up
to 10 days, which can be treated with water restriction and IV mannitol but
hypovolemia should be avoided.
• craniotomy and temporary removal of the cranium reduces mortality by
50%, the benefit for older patients ( age > 60) is less but still significant
11. • Usually patients with cerebral edema present with a
deteriorating mental status and at least one of the
following signs
13. Infections
• Fever after a stroke should prompt evaluation for common sources, including pneumonia
and urinary tract infection.
• Pneumonia is the commonest cause of fever in the first 48 hrs. of stroke with risk factors
including aspiration; atelectasis; intubation…
• Early mobilization, airway care and dysphagia assessment prevent pneumonia
• Urinary tract infections are often seen during the first 5 days of the hospitalization.
• Prolonged catheter use and poor catheter care are risks.
14. DVT and PTE prophylaxis
• The development of DVT may take place as early as day 2 after stroke
onset, with a peak incidence between days 2 & 7.
• The incidence of DVT in immobile patients with stroke was b/n 11%
and 15% of patients within the first month of stroke.
• PTE occurs in 1-3% of stroke with mortality rate of 13-25%
• Risk factors of DVT Severe disability; old age and dehydration
15. If there are no contraindications,
• low-dose subcutaneous UFH at a dosage of 5000 units twice a day or
LMWH is used.
• The Prevention of VTE after Acute Ischemic Stroke with LMWH study
showed that enoxaparin (40 mg once daily) was superior to UFH in
preventing VTE in patients with acute ischemic stroke but was
associated with a small increase in extra cranial hemorrhage rates
• If heparin is contraindicated, intermittent pneumatic compression
(IPC) of the lower extremities is recommended.
16. Standard nursing care
• Bed side care for clothing and feeding
• Frequent positioning to prevent pressure sore
• Routine care of ng tube , eye and mouth
• Monitoring the swallow test daily
19. We can classify acute ischemic stroke management principles to six categories
1.Medical support
2.IV thrombolytics
3.Endovascular revascularization
4.Antithrombotic treatment
5.Neuroprotection
6.Stroke care and rehabilitation
20. Intravenous thrombolysis
• The NINDS study on rtPA shows
that there is a clear benefit
selected patients with acute
stroke
• Iv rtPA ( 0.9mg/kg not to exceed
90mg ) 10% bolus and the rest
infused over 1 hr.
21. Management gaps
• Stoke management set up in our hospital has yet to improve
• We don’t have emergency CT scan
• We don’t have fibrinolytic agents
• The patient hypertension is managed with nefidipine
• We don’t have stroke care centers
• Patients initial RBS was not registered
