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 […]

Anaphylactic Shock Following Administration of Iodinated Computed Tomography (CT) Contrast Media

Authors: Asim Abdulla Ahmed Shilla R, Shaikh N, Nashrah U, et al. Cureus 18(7): e113223. doi:10.7759/cureus.113223 Abstract Anaphylactic shock is a severe and life-threatening allergic reaction that can result from contrast agents used in imaging procedures. Iodinated contrast media (ICM) are indispensable in diagnostic computed tomography (CT), yet they carry a small but serious risk […]

Accidental Endotracheal Tube Compromise During Genioplasty: An Anesthetic and Surgical Challenge

Authors: Shetty P, Sorake S, R R Cureus 18(7): e113240. doi:10.7759/cureus.113240 Abstract Airway security is critical in maxillofacial surgery, where operative procedures are performed in close proximity to the airway. Although genioplasty is considered a safe adjunct to orthognathic surgery, inadvertent endotracheal tube (ETT) damage during osteotomy is a rare but potentially life-threatening complication. A […]

Intrathecal Ropivacaine Versus Levobupivacaine for Infraumbilical Surgery

Authors: Jennifer Lydia J, Asokan A, M.S I, et al. Cureus 18(7): e113255. doi:10.7759/cureus.113255 Background Newer-generation amide local anesthetic drugs are relatively less cardiotoxic and neurotoxic than bupivacaine and thus can be used as safer alternatives to reduce bupivacaine-related toxicity. In the present study, we hypothesized that isobaric 0.5% levobupivacaine would be more efficacious than […]
