Pleural Diseases
Drainage
The removal of fluids or discharges from the body, such as from a wound, sore, or cavity.
Chest Tubes
Plastic tubes used for drainage of air or fluid from the pleural space. Their surgical insertion is called tube thoracostomy.
Thoracic Surgery, Video-Assisted
Endoscopic surgery of the pleural cavity performed with visualization via video transmission.
Bronchial Fistula
An abnormal passage or communication between a bronchus and another part of the body.
Pleura
The thin serous membrane enveloping the lungs (LUNG) and lining the THORACIC CAVITY. Pleura consist of two layers, the inner visceral pleura lying next to the pulmonary parenchyma and the outer parietal pleura. Between the two layers is the PLEURAL CAVITY which contains a thin film of liquid.
Thoracotomy
Surgical incision into the chest wall.
Thoracoplasty
Surgical removal of ribs, allowing the chest wall to move inward and collapse a diseased lung. (Dorland, 28th ed)
Lung Abscess
Solitary or multiple collections of PUS within the lung parenchyma as a result of infection by bacteria, protozoa, or other agents.
Thoracoscopy
Endoscopic examination, therapy or surgery of the pleural cavity.
Fistula
Abnormal communication most commonly seen between two internal organs, or between an internal organ and the surface of the body.
Respiratory Tract Fistula
An abnormal passage communicating between any component of the respiratory tract or between any part of the respiratory system and surrounding organs.
Pleural Cavity
Paired but separate cavity within the THORACIC CAVITY. It consists of the space between the parietal and visceral PLEURA and normally contains a capillary layer of serous fluid that lubricates the pleural surfaces.
Pneumonectomy
The excision of lung tissue including partial or total lung lobectomy.
Instillation, Drug
The administration of therapeutic agents drop by drop, as eye drops, ear drops, or nose drops. It is also administered into a body space or cavity through a catheter. It differs from THERAPEUTIC IRRIGATION in that the irrigate is removed within minutes, but the instillate is left in place.
Hemothorax
Hemorrhage within the pleural cavity.
Gastric Fistula
Abnormal passage communicating with the STOMACH.

Primary distension of the guttural pouch lateral compartment secondary to empyema. (1/139)

A 6-year-old, 420-kg quarter horse gelding was presented with a 2-month history of difficulty swallowing and dyspnea. The horse was diagnosed with a right guttural pouch empyema with many large chondroids. Two surgeries were required to completely remove all the chondroids from what proved to be a primary distension of the guttural pouch lateral compartment.  (+info)

Effect of zinc-reversible growth-inhibitory activity in human empyema fluid on antibiotic microbicidal activity. (2/139)

Abscess fluid supernatants have zinc-reversible microbial growth-inhibitory activity that is mediated by calprotectin, a zinc-binding protein. Because it inhibits microbial growth, this activity might interfere with killing by antibiotics that require their target organisms to be proliferating. In the present study, we cultured bacteria in human empyema fluid and used zinc to overcome the growth-inhibitory effect of calprotectin. We then compared the effect of zinc on killing by the beta-lactams ampicillin and cefazolin with that of the fluoroquinolone trovafloxacin, since the latter may be better able to kill nonproliferating organisms. In empyema fluid diluted 1:5 in normal saline, addition of zinc (30 microM) increased growth of two strains of Staphyloccocus aureus and two strains of Escherichia coli but did not affect the MICs or MBCs of the three antibiotics in Mueller-Hinton broth. For one strain of S. aureus, no effect of zinc was found on killing by either ampicillin or cefazolin. However, with the other strain of S. aureus and both strains of E. coli, significant enhancement of killing by both drugs was observed with zinc addition. On the other hand, no effect on the killing of any of the organisms was observed for trovafloxacin when zinc was added. These results suggest that the zinc-reversible growth-inhibitory activity of abscess fluid may interfere with the microbicidal activity of antibiotics requiring proliferating target organisms, although antibiotics better able to kill nonproliferating organisms may be less affected by this phenomenon.  (+info)

Pharmacokinetics of trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole in children. (3/139)

The present report extends experience with the use of trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (TMP-SMX) in children aged 3 months to 10 years. The regimen was TMP (200 mg)--SMX (1000 mg)/m-2d given in two equal doses. The drug was easily administered, well tolerated and efficacious in the treatment of a variety of infections in 12 children. A steady state had been achieved by the third dose of medication and accumulation of either component during days 1 through 4 did not occur. Serum concentrations of TMP were slightly lower in children aged less than 3 years compared with those aged 3 to 6 years but the differences were small and these results are preliminary. Peak mean serum TMP concentration was highest at day 3 when it reached 1.63 mug/ml. It is concluded that this regimen may be suboptimal for some major parenchymal infections even though the therapeutic result was excellent in most children.  (+info)

Rapid diagnosis of infectious pleural effusions by use of reagent strips. (4/139)

Reagent strips have not yet been tested for use in the diagnosis of infectious pleural effusions. A reagent strip was used to evaluate 82 patients with pleural effusions: 20 patients had transudative effusions, 35 had infectious exudative effusions (empyema in 14 and parapneumonic effusion in 21), and 27 had noninfectious exudative effusions. Pleural fluid protein, as evaluated by the reagent strip, proved accurate for the detection of exudative effusions (sensitivity, 93.1%; specificity, 50%; positive predictive value, 84.3%; negative predictive value, 71.5%; odds ratio [OR], 6.77; and 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.87-24). The reagent strip leukocyte esterase test effectively detected infectious exudative effusions (sensitivity, 42.8%; specificity, 91.3%; positive predictive value, 88.2%; negative predictive value, 51.2%; OR, 4.46; and 95% CI, 1.2-16.4). Pleural pH was significantly predicted by the reagent strip but was of no assistance in categorization of exudative effusions as infectious or noninfectious. Compared with physical, laboratory, and microbiological data, the reagent strip was as accurate for estimation of percentages of infectious and noninfectious exudative effusions. Thus, reagent strips may be a rapid, easy-to-use, and inexpensive technique for discriminating transudative from exudative pleural effusions and for categorizing exudative pleural effusions as infectious or noninfectious.  (+info)

Empyema in rheumatoid arthritis. (5/139)

Case notes of the last 67 patients to present at the Brompton Hospital with nontuberculous empyemas, and without malignant disease, have been examined. Three cases of empyema in association with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) were found, and these cases are reported. Previous literature concerning this association is reviewed. It is concluded that two types of empyema may occur in patients with RA. Some develop in association with nodular pleuropulmonary disease and the formation of pyopneumothoraces; in other cases large, recurrent, primary empyemas build up in the presence of active rheumatoid disease alone. As with rheumatoid pleural effusions, middle-aged men seem to be particularly susceptible.  (+info)

Evarts Ambrose Graham, empyema, and the dawn of clinical understanding of negative intrapleural pressure. (6/139)

The concept of negative intrapleural pressure is fairly new. Although the phenomenon had already been described, Wirz provided the first definitive analysis of its significance to the mechanics of breathing in 1923. By contrast, empyema has been known since antiquity; from the time of Hippocrates, treatment has consisted of open drainage. Open drainage was often successful and did not result in pneumothorax, because most cases of empyema were associated with adhesions and thickened visceral pleura that prevented the lung from collapsing. The epidemic of group A streptococcal pneumonia in military camps in 1917-1918 was associated with the rapid and early accumulation of empyema fluid and was the catalyst for renewed study of empyema. Use of open drainage to manage this illness resulted in a high immediate mortality rate, probably because patients developed pneumothorax. The work of Evarts Graham and the Empyema Commission married physiological understanding of pleural mechanics with rational clinical treatment and paved the way for further advances in thoracic surgery.  (+info)

An epidemiological investigation of a sustained high rate of pediatric parapneumonic empyema: risk factors and microbiological associations. (7/139)

We investigated the increasing incidence of pediatric empyema during the 1990s at Primary Children's Medical Center in Salt Lake City. Of 540 children hospitalized with community-acquired bacterial pneumonia (CAP) who were discharged from 1 July 1993 through 1 July 1999, 153 (28.3%) had empyema. The annual population incidence of empyema increased during the study period from 1 to 5 cases per 100,000 population aged <19 years. Streptococcus pneumoniae was identified as the most common cause of CAP with or without empyema; serotype 1 accounted for 50% of the cases of pneumococcal empyema. Patients with empyema were more likely to be >3 years old, to have > or =7 days of fever, to have varicella, and to have received antibiotics and ibuprofen before admission to the hospital, compared with patients without empyema (P<.0001 for each factor). The increasing incidence of empyema was associated with infection due to S. pneumoniae serotype 1, outpatient treatment with certain antibiotics, ibuprofen use, and varicella.  (+info)

Randomised trial of intrapleural urokinase in the treatment of childhood empyema. (8/139)

BACKGROUND: The role of intrapleural fibrinolytic agents in the treatment of childhood empyema has not been established. A randomised double blind placebo controlled trial of intrapleural urokinase was performed in children with parapneumonic empyema. METHODS: Sixty children (median age 3.3 years) were recruited from 10 centres and randomised to receive either intrapleural urokinase 40 000 units in 40 ml or saline 12 hourly for 3 days. The primary outcome measure was length of hospital stay after entry to the trial. RESULTS: Treatment with urokinase resulted in a significantly shorter hospital stay (7.4 v 9.5 days; ratio of geometric means 1.28, CI 1.16 to 1.41 p=0.027). A post hoc analysis showed that the use of small percutaneous drains was also associated with shorter hospital stay. Children treated with a combination of urokinase and a small drain had the shortest stay (6.0 days, CI 4.6 to 7.8). CONCLUSION: Intrapleural urokinase is effective in treating empyema in children and significantly shortens hospital stay.  (+info)

Emergence of parapneumonic empyema in the USA | ThoraxEmergence of parapneumonic empyema in the USA | Thorax
National hospitalisation data collected over a 13-year period were used to assess changes in the epidemiology of parapneumonic empyema. Our study revealed a substantial increase in the incidence of parapneumonic empyema hospitalisations in the USA. Parapneumonic empyema hospitalisations were commonly associated with in-hospital mortality and required long hospital stays. The largest relative increases were observed among young adults; however, the largest absolute increases occurred in older populations. Our data suggest that the most serious diseases were related to staphylococcal infections. Although parapneumonic empyema remains a relatively rare occurrence among children and young adults, empyema was more common and associated with a high in-hospital case fatality ratio among elderly people. The observed increasing trend is worrisome and consistent with previous reports from large healthcare centres or regions within the USA and abroad.4 6 9-13.

Empyema is a devastating complication that is rarely seen in the postpneumonectomy setting. A 56-year-old man presented to us 24 years after pneumonectomy with a 15 days history of chest pain and shortness of breath. Physical examination revealed a fluctuant swelling at the thoracotomy site. Computed tomography scan showed a large fluid density mass in the left pneumonectomy space. Needle aspiration and video assisted thoracoscopic surgery was carried out and culture of the aspirated fluid grew Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The patient was discharged with the chest tubes in place. At 2 months follow-up, the patient presented with fever and continuous copious drainage of pus from empyema tubes. Piperacillin with tazobactam at 4.5 grams per day helped in the resolution of fever but the output from the empyema tubes continued. An open window thoracostomy was performed and the patient was discharged on standard dosage of cefixime and fusidic acid. Following this antibiotic regimen, he remained stable with

Although the incidence of serious morbidity with childhood pneumonia has decreased over time, empyema as a complication of community-acquired pneumonia continues to be an important clinical problem. We reviewed the epidemiology and clinical management of empyema at 8 pediatric hospitals in a period before the widespread implementation of universal infant heptavalent pneumococcal vaccine programs in Canada. Health records for children | 18 years admitted from 1/1/00-31/12/03 were searched for ICD-9 code 510 or ICD-10 code J869 (Empyema). Empyema was defined as at least one of: thoracentesis with microbial growth from pleural fluid, or no pleural fluid growth but compatible chemistry or cell count, or radiologist diagnosis, or diagnosis at surgery. Patients with empyemas secondary to chest trauma, thoracic surgery or esophageal rupture were excluded. Data was retrieved using a standard form with a data dictionary. 251 children met inclusion criteria; 51.4% were male. Most children were previously healthy

VATS versus Fibrinolytics for Treatment of Primary Pediatric Empyema in Otherwise Healthy Children - SAGES Abstract ArchivesVATS versus Fibrinolytics for Treatment of Primary Pediatric Empyema in Otherwise Healthy Children - SAGES Abstract Archives
Joseph Balaban1, Lorrie Burkhalter2, Diana L Diesen3. 1UT Southwestern, Dallas, Tx, 2Childrens Health Dallas, 3UT Southwestern, Department of Surgery; Childrens Health Dallas. Introduction: Traditionally, Video Assisted Thorascopic Surgery (VATS) decortication has been the gold standard treatment for pediatric empyema. Recent studies have shown that fibrinolytics via tube thoracostomy produced similar outcomes while being less invasive and more cost-effective. Clinical practice started to change though difference in efficacy, hospital stay, cost, and failure rate are still debated.. Methods: We performed an IRB approved retrospective review of 161 otherwise healthy patients seen at a pediatric hospital from 2007 -2017 with a primary diagnosis of empyema treated with either fibrinolytics via chest tube or VATS decortication. Children were excluded if they had complex medical comorbidities or secondary empyema. This time period included our transition from first-line VATS treatment to ...

The presence of pus in the pleural space which is between the outer surface of the lung and the chest wall. Empyema is often a complication of pneumonia caused by bacteria such as Streptococcus pneumonia, Staphylococcus aureus, or Haemophilus influenza (H. flu) type b. The formation of the empyema is conventionally divided into three phases: exudative, fibrinopurulent and organizing. During the exudative phase, the pus accumulates. This is followed by the fibrinopurulent phase in which there is loculation of the pleural fluid (the creation of grapelike pockets of pus).

Empyema is pus in the pleural space. A parapneumonic effusion is a pleural effusion associated with a lung infection, usually pneumonia but infrequently a lung abscess. Bacterial pneumonia with a parapneumonic effusion is the most common precursor, seen in about 60% of empyema patients.1 Other causes of empyema are complications of chest surgery (22%), trauma (4%), esophageal perforation (4%), complications of chest tube/thoracentesis (4%), an extension from a subdiaphragmatic infection (3%), and assorted triggers (7%), including a hemothorax, chylothorax, or hydrothorax that becomes infected due to a systemic infection with hematogenous spread such as septicemia.1,2 ...

The case report describes the rare presentation of a 79-year-old patient with a locally perforated splenic flexure tumour of the colon presenting with an apparent empyema thoracis in the absence of abdominal signs or symptoms. Initial presentation was with a non-productive cough, anorexia and general malaise. An admission chest X-ray and subsequent computed tomographic image of the thorax showed a loculated pleural effusion consistent with an empyema. The computed tomography also showed a thickened splenic flexure. Thoracotomy was performed and a defect in the diaphragm was revealed after the abscess had been evacuated. A laparotomy was carried out at which point a tumour of the splenic flexure of the colon was found to be invading the spleen and locally perforated with subsequent collection in communication with the thorax. The tumour and spleen were resected and a transverse end colostomy was fashioned. One must consider the diagnosis of pathology inferior to the diaphragm when an apparent empyema

Pleural infection affects about 65,000 patients annually in the US and UK. In this and other forms of pleural injury, mesothelial cells (PMCs) undergo a process called mesothelial (Meso) mesenchymal transition (MT), by which PMCs acquire a profibrogenic phenotype with increased expression of α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) and matrix proteins. MesoMT thereby contributes to pleural organization with fibrosis and lung restriction. Current murine empyema models are characterized by early mortality, limiting analysis of the pathogenesis of pleural organization and mechanisms that promote MesoMT after infection. A new murine empyema model was generated in C57BL/6 J mice by intrapleural delivery of Streptococcus pneumoniae (D39, 3 × 107-5 × 109 cfu) to enable use of genetically manipulated animals. CT-scanning and pulmonary function tests were used to characterize the physiologic consequences of organizing empyema. Histology, immunohistochemistry, and immunofluorescence were used to assess pleural injury.

This is the first randomised controlled trial of fibrinolytic agents in childhood empyema and has established clearly that the use of urokinase reduces length of hospital stay. It provides an opportunity to discuss some issues in empyema management.. Tillett and Sherry14 recommended the use of fibrinolytic agents in loculated pleural effusions as early as 1949. They proposed that such intrapleural therapy could decrease the need for surgical intervention. Since then fibrinolytic agents have been reported anecdotally in adult and, more recently, in paediatric patients. There have been three small randomised controlled trials in adults. In one there was a significantly larger volume of pleural fluid drained from the group treated with streptokinase but there were no significant differences in duration of stay, need for surgical intervention (17%), or mortality (15%).4 The other two studies showed that patients treated with streptokinase5 or urokinase6 drained more pleural fluid and showed clinical ...

A dislocation model for the stress-strain behavior of dual phase steelsA dislocation model for the stress-strain behavior of dual phase steels
The key to the understanding of the mechanical behavior of dual phase (DP) steels is to a large extent to be found in the microstructure. The microstructure is in its turn a result of the chemical composition and the process parameters during its production. In this thesis the connection between microstructure and mechanical properties is studied, with focus on the microstructure development during annealing in a continuous annealing line. In-line trials as well as the lab simulations have been carried out in order to investigate the impact of alloying elements and process parameters on the microstructure. Further, a dislocation model has been developed in order to analyze the work hardening behavior of DP steels during plastic deformation.. From the in-line trials it was concluded that there is an inheritance from the hot rolling process both on the microstructure and properties of the cold rolled and annealed product. Despite large cold rolling reductions, recrystallization and phase ...

An increase in the incidence of empyema worldwide could be related to invasive pneumococcal disease caused by emergent nonvaccine replacement serotypes. To determine bacterial pathogens and pneumococcal serotypes that cause empyema in children in Australia, we conducted a 2-year study of 174 children with empyema. Blood and pleural fluid samples were cultured, and pleural fluid was tested by PCR. Thirty-two (21.0%) of 152 blood and 53 (33.1%) of 160 pleural fluid cultures were positive for bacteria; Streptococcus pneumoniae was the most common organism identified. PCR identified S. pneumoniae in 74 (51.7%) and other bacteria in 19 (13.1%) of 145 pleural fluid specimens. Of 53 samples in which S. pneumoniae serotypes were identified, 2 (3.8%) had vaccine-related and 51 (96.2%) had nonvaccine serotypes; 19A (n = 20; 36.4%), 3 (n = 18; 32.7%), and 1 (n = 8; 14.5%) were the most common. High proportions of nonvaccine serotypes suggest the need to broaden vaccine coverage ...

Human design flaws. 1. Female pelvis too small for the human babys head making birth difficult and prone to perinatal injuries to the baby.. 2. Retinal arteries/veins lying on and in front of the retina of the eyes. Many causes of blindness come from this defective design.. 3. Wisdom teeth (already noted) with secondary abscesses, occasionally dissecting up into the cranium -, brain abscess, meningitis, epidural empyema.. 4. Larynx too highly placed, leading to common choking deaths.. 5. A bony projection, called the Odontoid Process, an extension of the C2 vertebral body lie a long finger, up to the end of the brainstem. It can easily fracture, especially in rheumatoid arthritis. That leads to death or paralysis of all extremities and inability to breathe without a mechanical ventilator. A simpler rotatory ball-socket joint would be better and safer.. 6. Semi-soft disc material between vertebrae and just anterior to the spinal cord, were suited well to quadrupeds. But in humans the upper body ...

PMBus™ Compliant Digital Dual-Phase Synchronous Buck Controller with Auto-Control® - PV3207 | ROHM Semiconductor - ROHM Co.,...PMBus™ Compliant Digital Dual-Phase Synchronous Buck Controller with Auto-Control® - PV3207 | ROHM Semiconductor - ROHM Co.,...
The PV3207 is a dual phase digital synchronous buck controller with adaptive loop compensation, for point-of-load (POL) applications. The output can supply 0.6 V to 5.5 V, and can be configured and controlled via PMBus, with a single resistor, or through programming stored in the non-volatile memory (NVM). This controller may be used in single or dual phase mode. When used in dual phase mode, phases may be added or removed as the load varies, so that efficiency is maximized over the load range. Additionally, the outputs of the phases are interleaved so that the effective switching frequency at the output is doubled, and with Powervations Digital Stress Share (DSS) and PLL synchronization, multiple PV3207 devices may be used in parallel to increase the number of phases supporting the applications load. PV3207 uses Powervations proprietary adaptive digital control loop, Auto-Control, which adapts on a cycle-by-cycle basis, and provides active loop compensation to stabilize the control loop as the

Objective: Pleural drainage (PD) is the initial treatment option in patients with empyema. The aim of our study was to analyze the evolution of the empyema treated with PD depending on tube size used.. Material and Methods: This is a retrospective study over 10 years. We have analyzed the type of PD used (small (≤ 14F) and large (, 14F)), days of hospitalization (DH), fluid biochemical data, thoracic ultrasound, use of fibrinolysis, need for decortication and mortality. Placing either PD size is done randomly without following any clinical or biochemical criteria.. Results: We reviewed 50 patients, 72% were men and the average age was 53.14 ± 14.7 years. Small tube was placed in 40%, large tube in 48% and unknown thickness in 12%. The average pH of pleural fluid was 6.74 ± 0.43. The days until the placement of the DP were 3.58 ± 4.37. The average hospital stay was 21.04 ± 12.12 days. In a 36% thoracic ultrasound was made with a delay of 0.26 ± 0.45 days from request. In a 63.27% ...

Coxal Articulation or Hip-joint - WikiMD
The movements of the hip are very extensive, and consist of flexion, extension, adduction, abduction, circumduction, and rotation. The length of the neck of the femur and its inclinations to the body of the bone have the effect of converting the angular movements of flexion, extension, adduction, and abduction partially into rotatory movements in the joint. Thus when the thigh is flexed or extended, the head of the femur, on account of the medial inclination of the neck, rotates within the acetabulum with only a slight amount of gliding to and fro. The forward slope of the neck similarly affects the movements of adduction and abduction. Conversely rotation of the thigh which is permitted by the upward inclination of the neck, is not a simple rotation of the head of the femur in the acetabulum, but is accompanied by a certain amount of gliding. The hip-joint presents a very striking contrast to the shoulder-joint in the much more complete mechanical arrangements for its security and for the ...

Sacroiliac and Hip-Joint Function in Relation to Spinal Traction or ManipulationSacroiliac and Hip-Joint Function in Relation to Spinal Traction or Manipulation
Nutation is the motion of the sacral base anteriorly while the ilium moves posteriorly and inferiorly, with the PSIS as the point of reference during hip flexion. Counternutation is the motion of the sacral base posteriorly while the PSIS moves anteriorly and superiorly during forward flexion of the lumbar region during sitting or standing. The process of counternutation, the sacral base moving posteriorly with the ilia moving anteriorly and superiorly, is associated with protection of the lower lumbar spine. The sacral base posterior motion has a decompression effect upon the lower lumbar facets and posterior disc fibers. It also opens the lateral and central canals, as it occurs during flexion traction or spinal decompression traction.. This being the case, adjusting of the sacroiliac joints for AS fixation can be undermining the bodys natural defense mechanism. In cases of trauma or long-standing compensatory AS fixation following counternutation, it can be a necessary procedure. In cases of ...

Of 40,744 patients hospitalized with pneumonia, 3760 (9.2%) patients were diagnosed with pulmonary malignancy after their index pneumonia admission. Median time to diagnosis was 297 days, with only 27% diagnosed within 90 days of admission. Factors significantly associated with a new diagnosis of pulmonary malignancy included history of chronic pulmonary disease, any prior malignancy, white race, being married, and tobacco use. Increasing age, Hispanic ethnicity, need for intensive care unit admission, and a history of congestive heart failure, stroke, dementia, or diabetes with complications were associated with a lower incidence of pulmonary malignancy. ...
