Cardiogenic Shock Teams Associated With Higher Survival Rates
New research provides detailed data on how cardiogenic shock teams function to reduce the risk of CS mortality.
Pulmonary Edema
Pulmonary Complications Linked to High-Dose Naloxone for Opioid Overdose
Higher rates of pulmonary complications are more likely to occur in patients who receive high total doses of naloxone for the treatment of opioid overdose in an out-of-hospital setting.
Predictors of Pulmonary Edema in PAH Following Prostacyclin Therapy
In patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension, high baseline right atrial pressure, left heart disease, and pulmonary veno-occlusive disease or pulmonary capillary hemangiomatosis are valuable predictors of pulmonary edema.
Case: Severe ARDS Following Hydrochlorothiazide Administration
A recent report published in The Journal of Emergency Medicine describes the case of a male patient who experienced HCTZ-induced pulmonary edema that was complicated by ARDS.
