Reverse Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy With Severe Dengue: Case Report From Pakistan., Warda Ajmal, Zahra Iftikhar, Asaad Akbar Khan

Journal of Community Hospital Internal Medicine Perspectives

Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy is an established transient cardiomyopathy found predominately in females with intense emotional and physical strain. It has four notable variants: Apical, Mid-Ventricular, Basal and Focal. Mid Ventricular variant is also referred to as Reverse Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy. Dengue is a viral arthopod-borne tropical disease endemic to Pakistan, with multiple reports of cardiovascular involvement. We report an atypical presentation of a 17 year old male, suffering from Dengue Fever, who presented to a tertiary care hospital with Reverse Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy.

Effect Of Acute Care Discharge Delays On Inpatient Rehabilitation Facility (Irf) Utilization, Eric Garrard 2024 University of St. Augustine for Health Sciences

Effect Of Acute Care Discharge Delays On Inpatient Rehabilitation Facility (Irf) Utilization, Eric Garrard

Student Dissertations

Discharge delays present hospitals with challenges in managing costs for Medicare admissions. Meanwhile, Inpatient Rehabilitation Facilities (IRF) are subject to strict pre-admission requirements that can complicate efficient transitions of care for patients with intensive rehabilitation needs. The purpose of this retrospective quantitative correlational study was to examine any relationship between acute care discharge delays and IRF utilization. This study investigated whether length of stay (LOS) and Medicare Advantage prior authorization requirements impact IRF referrals by reviewing 3,747 medical records of acute stroke patients aged 65 years and older at a regionally integrated healthcare system over a 3-year period (2020- 2022). …


Addressing Disparity: A Waiting Room Intervention For Preeclampsia Prevention In African Americans, Morgan Semana 2024 Dominican University of California

Addressing Disparity: A Waiting Room Intervention For Preeclampsia Prevention In African Americans, Morgan Semana

Nursing | Senior Theses

Maternal mortality is a pressing, global concern that particularly affects African American women in the United States. African American women face disproportionately a high maternal mortality rate (MMR), with rates more than double that of white women. Preeclampsia emerges as the leading cause of maternal mortality in African American women, driving the need for targeted interventions. To address this issue, a proposed research study aims to investigate the impact of a nurse-led, waiting room, preeclampsia and aspirin effectiveness educational intervention on the knowledge and preeclampsia rates among African American women. The study draws upon existing evidence that supports the use …

Systemic Storm: Multi-Organ Septic Emboli In Acute Aortic Valve Endocarditis, Jilpa Shah, Akshaj Pole, Amnah Andrabi

North Texas Research Forum 2024

According to the Infectious Disease Society of America (IDSA), Infective endocarditis (IE) is an infection of the endocardial surface of the native valve, prosthetic heart valve, or an implanted cardiac device such as a permanent pacemaker or a defibrillator. IE is a rare fatal disease with an incidence rate of 3 to 10 cases per 100,000 people, predominantly in males over the age of 50 years in developed countries. Septic emboli are a serious sequelae of infective endocarditis with commonly affecting brain, spleen, kidneys, and lung. Usually, initial management includes tapered long term antibiotics with surgical evaluation for possible valve …


Subacute Defibrillator Lead Associated Right Ventricular Perforation In A Young Individual With Non-Ischemic Cardiomyopathy: A Unique Clinical Case, Jackson V. Littlejohn, Aditya Sharma, Marisha R. Sharma 2024 HCA Healthcare

Subacute Defibrillator Lead Associated Right Ventricular Perforation In A Young Individual With Non-Ischemic Cardiomyopathy: A Unique Clinical Case, Jackson V. Littlejohn, Aditya Sharma, Marisha R. Sharma

North Texas Research Forum 2024

Pacemaker-lead associated complications are often documented in elderly populations with ischemic heart disease. Acute perforations within 24 hours of implantation are the most common, and immediate life-threatening complications are most likely to occur during an acute perforation. Subacute perforations between 1 day and 30 days after implantation are less common and carry a lower risk of life-threatening complications. Here, we present a unique case of subacute right ventricular perforation in a young individual with non-ischemic cardiomyopathy, challenging the conventional understanding of such an occurrence. Further adding to the intrigue of our case, the patient had recurrent hospital visits both before …

North Texas Research Forum 2024

Angioedema is the swelling of deeper layers of skin caused by a build-up fluid, oftentimes due to the culmination of immune system activation against allergens. There are several causes of angioedema, including animal dander, exposure to various foods, insect bites, and medications such as Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors and Angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs). This swelling primarily presents periorbital and periorally, however can also less-commonly affect the airway. Angioedema can be life-threatening if involving the throat and larynx given the potential of respiratory airway compromise. This case presents a patient who had been on an ACE-ARB for almost 2 decades, …
