Diagnosing Compartment Syndrome (CS) is complex. Symptoms can be nonspecific, especially in non-verbal or sedated patients. Key indicators like pain, pallor, and pulselessness vary in reliability. ICP measurements are common but vary in interpretation. In children, symptoms like agitation add to the challenge. SentinelpH®'s real-time monitoring aims to deliver critical, dynamic data, empowering clinicians to make swift, accurate decisions, and potentially saving limbs and lives. #HealthcareInnovation #MedicalTechnology #PatientCare #CompartmentSyndrome #SentinelpH Read more in Cureus Journal of Medical Science by Mikayla Hobbs, Hira T.

A quick search online reveals that, at least anecdotally, many patients behind their screens are suffering from symptoms resembling angina and anginal equivalents but feel that they are not being given serious attention as patients and thus suffer additionally from a lack of diagnosis (which then equates to a lack of treatment). Clinicians are only just now realizing how prevalent ischemia without any obstructed coronary arteries (INOCA) really is, but clinical practice continues to lag far behind with only a handful of institutions offering the ability to interrogate the microvasculature to get a "complete" picture of patient heart health. Worse still, almost all of our traditional non-invasive frontline tests are notoriously difficult to use consistently for diagnosing CMD at the beginning of a patient's care journey.

With inVibe, a division of THREAD, we're shaping the way we listen to and understand the patient's voice, including in the context of rare diseases. We're closing the distance between patients' real-life experiences and clinical trial design by using technology-driven market research.    In this clip, a patient with #aHUS is asked how feasible it would be if they had to travel to a regional hospital and how they feel about utilizing home health care.    Learn more: https://bit.ly/3vfouxT       #patientvoice #rarediseases #clinicalresearch #lifesciences #marketresearch 

A unique case published by Kevin Tom and Jeffrey Bzdusek in Cureus Journal of Medical Science of a #heroinoverdose complicated by acute compartment syndrome (#ACS), rhabdomyolysis, and acute renal failure highlights the critical need for vigilance in #emergencymedicine. This 38-year-old patient presented with a CK level of 212,845 U/L, one of the highest recorded. Early intervention with #fasciotomy and haemodialysis was key to recovery. Compartment syndrome, often due to #fractures (75%) or trauma, can also stem from opioid overdoses. Recognising and treating this rare but life-threatening condition is crucial.

Thank you for sharing such a compelling case, Kevin and Jeffrey! This study underscores the critical importance of early recognition and intervention in managing complex medical emergencies like acute compartment syndrome secondary to heroin overdose. Cases like these are crucial reminders of the multifaceted challenges posed by the opioid epidemic in emergency medicine. It's essential for healthcare providers to maintain vigilance and awareness, as ACS can manifest unexpectedly even in non-traumatic settings.

"Thoracic Duct–Venous Junction Obstruction as Unknown Cause of Abdominal Pain: Diagnosis and Treatment" from the University of Pennsylvania Health System. This study focuses on patients (like myself) experiencing abdominal pain and bloating due to thoracic duct-venous junction obstruction. It shows how decompression of this junction significantly improved symptoms. This highlights the importance of considering the lymphatic system in diagnosing abdominal pain. For therapists and patients, recognizing central lymphatic dysfunction is vital. This knowledge can lead to innovative treatments, enhancing our journey towards better health. #LymphedemaAwareness #ThoracicDuctHealth #LymphaticHealth
