The use of pulse pressure variation shows promise in ventilated patients, but requires the insertion of an arterial line [5].
For each patient, the cannula insertion site was cleansed with 96% ethanol solution containing 5% povidone-iodine.
None of the patients was aware of the insertion method used.
Following healing, custom orthotics were created for the patients for insertion into shoes to reduce pressure on the previously fractured foot areas.
Both patients recovered completely with the following treatment protocol: (a) trendelenburg positioning of the patient, (b) insertion of a continuous-drainage cerebro-spinal fluid catheter into the lumbar thecal sac, (c) primary suture of the leaking skin wound, (d) IV antibiotic therapy.
Interventions: In the first 121 patients, the ideal depth of insertion was verified using fiberoptic bronchoscopy in the lateral position.
However, the present case suggests that MT tube insertion carries the risk of abnormal bleeding at the insertion site in such patients.
Four of the 16 patients showed an insertion at the duplication junctions ranging from four to 12 nucleotides.
ROC analysis for the prediction of patients with insertion time less than 10 min by DCS.
The mean age of the patients at the time of insertion of the implants was 50.97 ± 13.27 years.
