BACKGROUND Thoracic ultrasonography is more sensitive than chest radiography (CXR) in detecting pneumothorax; however, the role of ultrasonography to determine resolution of pneumothorax after thoracostomy tube placement for traumatic injury remains

The clinical utility of determining cardiac motion on ultrasound has been reported for patients presenting in pulseless medical cardiac arrest. However, the relationship between ultrasound-documented cardiac activity and the probability of surviving

Background Poor access to adequate health care coverage is associated with poor outcomes for many chronic medical conditions. We hypothesized that insurance coverage is also associated with mortality after gunshot trauma. Study Design The trauma reco

The relationship between lactate and head injury is controversial. We sought to determine the relationship between initial serum lactate, severity of head injury, and outcome. We hypothesized that lactate is elevated in head injured patients, and tha

Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is a proglucagon-derived hormone with cellular protective actions. We hypothesized that GLP-1 would protect the endothelium from injury during inflammation. Our aims were to determine the: (1) effect of GLP-1 on basal

The energy dissipation between gunshot and shotgun blasts is very different. Injuries from shotgun blasts vary depending on the distance of the victim from the shooter, the choke of the shotgun, the pellet load, and the wad of the ammunition. We post

Background We have used single-contrast (intravenous contrast only) computed tomography (SCCT) for triaging hemodynamically stable patients with penetrating torso trauma. We hypothesized that SCCT safely determines the need for operative exploration.

Background Intracranial pressure (ICP) is currently measured with invasive monitoring. Sonographic optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) may provide a noninvasive estimate of ICP. Our hypothesis was that bedside ONSD accurately estimates ICP in acutely

We have previously documented that endothelin 1 (ET-1) and prostacyclin (PGI2) decrease basal state hydraulic permeability (Lp). The aim of this study was to investigate the ability of ET-1 and PGI2 to modulate transendothelial fluid flux during situ
