Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death and has dramatically increased in
recent years. Continuous cardiac monitoring is particularly important for early diagnosis and …

Multiple international airway societies have created guidelines for the management of the
difficult airway. In critically ill patients, there are physiologic derangements beyond …

Right ventricular (RV) failure occurs when the RV fails to maintain enough blood flow
through the pulmonary circulation to achieve adequate left ventricular filling. This can occur …

Heart failure (HF) is an important cardiovascular disease because of its increasing
prevalence, significant morbidity, high mortality, and rapidly expanding health care cost. The …

ARDS is associated with poor clinical outcomes, with a pooled mortality rate of
approximately 40% despite best standards of care. Current therapeutic strategies are based …

Background: Right ventricular dysfunction (RVD) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality
in the setting of acute inferior wall myocardial infarction (IWMI), and early detection may …

Right ventricular failure (RVF) following left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation
remains a major complication which may significantly impair patient outcome. The genesis …
