Abstract 005: Outcomes of Heparin Induced Thrombocytopenia Type II in Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage Patients

Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology

This study aims to investigate the incidence, complications, and outcomes of SAH patients who develop HIT.MethodsICD‐9‐CM and ICD‐10‐CM codes were used to query the National Inpatient Sample for patients with SAH between 2010 and 2019. Results76,387 patients were diagnosed with SAH between 2010 and 2019.

Abstract 022: Acute Kidney Injury in Subarachnoid Hemorrhage: Exploring its Clinical Significance and Prognostic Implications

Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology

IntroductionSubarachnoid Hemorrhage (SAH) resulting from the spontaneous rupture of an aneurysm is a rare and highly debilitating condition. Despite its severity, patients with aneurysmal SAH remain understudied, particularly concerning the evaluation of the incidence and consequences of subsequent acute kidney injury (AKI).

A Patient with Vertigo

Dr. Smith's ECG Blog

But the well-formed Q-wave and the presence of a normal T-wave in inferior leads led me to believe this was Old Inferior MI with persistent ST Elevation, otherwise known as inferior LV aneurysm. Anterior LV aneurysm is much easier to recognize because the Q-wave is usually a QS-wave (no R-wave at all), in at least one lead.

Temporal trends in mortality of aortic dissection and rupture in the UK, Japan, the USA and Canada

Heart BMJ

Objective Aortic dissection and aortic aneurysm rupture are aortic emergencies and their clinical outcomes have improved over the past two decades; however, whether this has translated into lower mortality across countries remains an open question. In sensitivity analyses stratified by sex, similar trends were observed.
