Pericardial tamponade is an uncommon but extremely important cause of cardiogenic shock, because it is highly treatable. Unfortunately, the precise definition of tamponade can be challenging – and patients can rapidly transition from an uncomplicated pericardial effusion towards the development of tamponade. The IBCC chapter is located 👉 here. The podcast & comments are below. […]
IBCC – LV Outflow Tract Obstruction (LVOTO)
Dynamic LV outflow tract causes an inversion of all hemodynamics. Diuresis and inotropes may cause cardiogenic pulmonary edema! Vasoconstrictors and beta-blockers may improve cardiogenic pulmonary edema! Down is up and up is down. As you might imagine, failure to recognize this physiology could easily lead to management strategies that make matters worse. The IBCC chapter […]
IBCC: Type-1 Myocardial Infarction
Management of myocardial infarction is the core of cardiovascular critical care. Recent advances in the OMI/NOMI paradigm offer the ability to detect significant infarctions earlier – allowing for prompt triage and management. The IBCC chapter is located 👉 here.

PulmCrit wee: DDAVP Clamp-Bolus technique for severe hyponatremia
The DDAVP clamp technique has considerably simplified the management of severe hyponatremia. The fundamentals of the technique are as follows: Before the use of the DDAVP clamp, the primary cause of sodium overcorrection was endogenous free water excretion by the kidneys. For example, patients would present to the hospital with retention of free water due […]
