Ventriculo-Arterial Coupling: Historical Foundations, Physiological Principles, and Clinical Relevance in Critical Care Hemodynamics

Authors: Buitrago C, Murillo N Cureus 18(7): e113201. doi:10.7759/cureus.113201 Abstract Ventriculo-arterial coupling describes the interaction between ventricular contractile performance and the arterial system, integrating end-systolic ventricular elastance, arterial elastance, stroke volume generation, and cardiovascular efficiency into a unified physiological framework. Although historically rooted in pressure-volume analysis, time-varying ventricular elastance, and Windkessel-based arterial modeling, the concept […]

Therapeutic Dilemma in Epidural Catheter Removal During Dual Antiplatelet Therapy and Anticoagulation Following Hepatic Artery Injury

Authors: Lousada T, Ferreira A, Dorna B, et al. Cureus 18(7): e113117. doi:10.7759/cureus.113117 Abstract Epidural catheter removal in the setting of concurrent dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) and anticoagulation poses a high risk of neuraxial hematoma. Current guidelines mandate prolonged interruption of antithrombotic therapy, which may be unfeasible in patients with recently implanted arterial stents at […]
