[Plasmapheresis and high-dose immunoglobulins in the treatment of acute demyelinating polyneuropathy].

Abstract:

:The authors report two clinical cases of Guillain-Barré syndrome, treated with contemporaneous use of plasmapheresis and high dose gammaglobulin. An early diagnosis and immediate application of such a therapeutic association, are of paramount importance in order to obtain remission of the neurologic symptomatology within a short time. They report the therapies carried out to avoid complications connected with this syndrome as well as cause which led to quit steroid use in these patients.

  • Validation of the Zero-Heat-Flux thermometer (SpotOn®) in major gynecological surgery to monitor intraoperative core temperature: a comparative study with esophageal core temperature.

    abstract:BACKGROUND:The Zero-Heat-Flux technology of the SpotOn® sensor to measure core temperature has been validated in vascular and cardiac surgery. Our aim was to assess its validity in gynecological surgery in terms of time of measurement, thermic status (hypo-, normo-, or hyperthermia) and the use of different warming dev...
