Congenital Uterine Anomalies
Congenital uterine anomalies are structural abnormalities of the uterus resulting from improper fusion, canalization, or resorption of the Müllerian ducts during fetal development. These anomalies include septate, bicornuate, unicornuate, and didelphys uterus, among others. They can be asymptomatic or associated with infertility, recurrent pregnancy loss, preterm birth, or abnormal menstruation. Diagnosis is typically made using imaging modalities like ultrasound, MRI, or hysterosalpingography. Treatment depends on the type and severity of the anomaly, with surgical correction such as hysteroscopic septum resection often indicated in symptomatic cases. Early detection is crucial for optimizing reproductive outcomes and guiding appropriate management strategies.
Approach to severe hyperkalemia in ICU
Approach to Severe Hyperkalemia in the ICU focuses on rapid identification and targeted intervention to prevent life-threatening complications. The session outlines key steps including ECG monitoring, membrane stabilization with calcium gluconate, intracellular potassium shift using insulin-dextrose and beta-agonists, and potassium elimination via diuretics or dialysis. It emphasizes prioritizing reversible causes like renal failure or medication-induced hyperkalemia. Real-world ICU scenarios and evidence-based protocols will guide clinicians in managing this critical electrolyte emergency effectively.
