Die Highlights vom Kongress des American College of Cardiology 2024

Im April diskutierten die Herz-Kreislauf-Spezialisten aus der ganzen Welt auf dem  Kongress des American College of Cardiology (ACC) u.a. neue Therapieansätze bei akutem Myokardinfarkt, koronarer Herzerkrankung, kardiogenem Schock oder Aortenklappenstenose. In unserem Kongress-Dossier haben wir für Sie Berichte über die „Late-Breaking Trials“ und andere wichtige Studien zusammengestellt.

Zusammenfassung

Die intraoperative Echokardiographie hat sich innerhalb der Anästhesiologie und Intensivmedizin während der letzten Jahre zu einem modernen Verfahren der perioperativen kardialen Diagnostik und Patientenüberwachung entwickelt. Fortschritte in der Bildaufbereitung und die Entwicklung neuer Schallwandlertechniken für die transösophageale Echokardiographie (TEE) haben hierzu in besonderem Maß beigetragen. Durch die Einführung multiplaner TEE-Sonden mit integrierter Doppler-Echokardiographiekapazität steht dem klinisch tätigen Anästhesisten eine neue Technik zur Verfügung, um Herzkammern, Herzklappen sowie die großen Gefäße qualitativ und quantitativ zu beurteilen. Die Kenntnis der physikalisch-technischen Grundlagen der Echokardiographie ist eine wichtige Voraussetzung, um diese Technologie erfolgreich am Patienten einzusetzen. Der vorliegende Übersichtsbeitrag beschreibt die verschiedenen Formen der Echokardiographie (M-mode, 2D- und Doppler-Echokardiographie) und deren spezifische Anwendungsmöglichkeiten. Zusätzlich werden die typischen Artefakte, die bei der Anwendung von Echokardiographieverfahren auftreten können, dargestellt und deren Beurteilung, Erkennung und Vermeidung erläutert.

Delir bei kritisch Kranken – Antipsychotika versus Placebo

16.05.2024 Delir Nachrichten

Um die Langzeitfolgen eines Delirs bei kritisch Kranken zu mildern, wird vielerorts auf eine Akuttherapie mit Antipsychotika gesetzt. Eine US-amerikanische Forschungsgruppe äußert jetzt erhebliche Vorbehalte gegen dieses Vorgehen. Denn es gibt neue Daten zum Langzeiteffekt von Haloperidol bzw. Ziprasidon versus Placebo.
