Significance of Allis tissue forceps

These forceps are greatly useful in surgeries especially those that require the manipulation of tough tissues. Sometimes it is also referred to as Allis clamps as its design looks like a clamp. Also, these forceps are not only useful for grasping tissues but also for grasping tendons and fascia including bowel and breast tissues. Moreover, this tool is useful in multiple surgical scenarios including ENT, Obstetrics and gynecology, orthopedic, and general surgeries.

Anatomy of Allis tissue forceps

These forceps feature a scissor-like design with opposing arms that makes this tool user-friendly. There is a ratchet mechanism on its handle that enables self-locking of the jaws. The most distinctive feature of this tool is its jaws which are equipped with interlocking and fine teeth.

Moreover, surgeons can easily hold onto tissues with the help of the teeth configuration on the jaws which prevents slippage. Furthermore, there are multiple variations of this tool available including multiple lengths, tooth configurations, and serration patterns on the jaws. Surgeons can choose the one that suits best their surgical practice and the delicate nature of the tissues involved.

Advantages

There are three types of ECG leads available:

• Banana Type
• Snap Type
• Pinch/Clip/Grabber Type

Banana Type leads are common with old pattern of ECG machines. Chest leads are marked with C1, C2 or like V1, V2. Todays leads also carries a color coding.

Snap Type is used very frequently and attached to the connector with a snap or button. Easy to use with disposal type of connectors and these are frequently used in ICU, NICU and Emergency deptts. Apart from color coding, often chest lead numbers are marked as V1, V2.. and Limb leads as RA, RL, LL, LA.

The other type is Pinch type ECG lead  and it has a  clip type mouth to connect to the connector. 

In most cases, the leads are numbered, so that you dont have to remember them. It is true for both chest leads as well limb leads. The problem arises when the numbers fall off due wear and tear or when not numbered at all. In this case the color coding helps. 

The 12 ECG chest lead standard color coding are like this:

With the help of color coding any lay man can place ECG leads without a mnemonic.

Its also called as reentrant supraventricular tachycardia. Reentry supraventricular tachycardias (SVT) occurs due to the reentrant pathways above the bifurcation of the bundle of His. The mechanism of action is simple. Reentry is nothing but the circular propagation of an electrical impulse by 2 interconnected pathways which have different characteristics, conduction speed and refractory periods. If conduction over the first pathway is slow enough, a premature impulse may continue retrograde all the way up the second pathway. This by now has past its refractory period. If the first pathway has also past its refractory period, the impulse may reenter it and may start recycle. This sends an impulse each cycle to the ventricle and also backward to the atrium. Thus a  reentrant tachycardia begins.  Reentry Supraventricular tachycardia may be Atrioventricular nodal type in about 50%, Accessory bypass tract in 40% and sinoatrial nodal type in rest 10%.

Source: https://www.msdmanuals.com

Atrioventricular nodal type of reentry tachycardia (AVNRT) is often synonymously called Supra Ventricular Tachycardia. When the onset and offset is sudden, it is called Paroxysmal Supraventricular Tachycardia.

Signs and Symptoms:

Common presenting symptoms are breathlessness, palpitation, chest tightness, discomfort, chest pain, numbness, weakness, giddiness, unconsciousness. Duration of symptoms are variable, sudden on onset and offset. The rapid ventricular rate reduces the filling time significantly. This results in a drop in cardiac output & leads to hypotension and giddiness. Symptoms are marked when heart rate is more than 150 pm.

Diagnosis:

Paroxysmal Supra Ventricular Tachycardia is a regular tachycardia  ~140-280 bpm. It has a narrow QRS complex  (< 120 ms) and regular in rhythm. Retrograde p waves sometimes appear as inverted Q waves just after the QRS complex (common in leads II, III, aVF).

Example of Reentry Supraventricular Tachycardia ECG 

Management:

1. Vagal Maneuver  with carotid massage, valsalva maneuver
2. Adenosine, Beta blockers, CCBs or amiodarone on case to case basis
3. Unstable patients with persistent SVT : DC cardioversion with  50-100 J.
4. Catheter ablation in recurrent episodes not responding to medical treatment.

X-ray Abdomen or Abdominal X-ray is popularly known as AXR. This is another common x-ray, we frequently encounter. Here is an easy to remember mnemonics to read  an abdominal  X-ray.  We simply can remember it as Gases, Masses, Bones, Stones. A systematic approach to AXR interpretation is essential to avoid missing significant pathological changes. A systematic approach to AXR interpretation is essential to avoid missing significant pathological changes. Determine the ownership, adequacy and technical quality of the film. Name and date of birth of the patient and date radiograph was performed. Projection, Posture (e.g. supine or erect). Adequacy of exposure and then Look for ‘gases, masses, bones and stones’.

• Gases
  • Look for normal or abnormal intraluminal and extraluminal gas distribution. (Note: high inter-observer variability in interpretation of gas patterns)
  • Small bowel

• • • Intraluminal gas is usually minimal, centrally located within numerous tight loops of small diameter (2.5–3.5 cm), distinguished by valvulae conniventes (Stack of coins), characteristic mucosal folds that stretch all the way across the small bowel loops.
  • Large bowel
    • Has a mixture of gas and faeces located within loops of larger diameter (3–5 cm) around the periphery, with haustra, which are mucosal folds that stretch only part-way across the diameter of the large bowel loops.
  • Abnormal findings include:
    • Dilated loops of small or large bowel- obstruction, ileus or inflammation
    • Air–fluid levels on erect AXR—more than 5 fluid levels, greater than 2.5 cm in length is abnormal and associated with obstruction, ileus, ischaemia and gastroenteritis.
    • Intramural Gas -ischaemic colitis
    • Intraperitoneal gas—perforated viscus or penetrating abdominal injury Rigler’s Sign(double-wall sign) occurs when both sides of the bowel wall can be visualised and is a good indication of free intraperitoneal gas. However the sensitivity for detecting perforation on AXR is low and is best confirmed as subdiaphragmatic air on erect CXR or with a CT scan.
    • Extraperitoneal gas—within the soft tissues, retroperitoneal structures or chest in infection or trauma.
• Masses
  • Look for the size and position of the solid organ shadows of the liver, spleen, kidneys and bladder
  • Identify the retroperitoneal shadow of the psoas muscles. Bulging of the lateral margin or obliteration of the psoas shadow may indicate retroperitoneal pathology. Look for the dilated, calcified sac of a ruptured aortic aneurysm, or adjacent bony trauma (e.g. transverse process fractures).
• Bones
  • Look for abnormalities of the visible bones such as the ribs, spine, sacrum and pelvis (e.g. fractures, scoliosis, degenerative disease, tumours and metastatic deposition).
  • These may be incidental or provide additional information on the cause of the abdominal pain.
• Stones
  • Look for renal, ureteric and bladder stones/calcification.
  • Trace the course of the ureter from the pelvis of the kidney, along the tips of the lumbar spine transverse processes, over the sacroiliac joint, down to the ischial spine and medially to the bladder; 80–90% of renal tract stones are radio-opaque, but will require non-contrast CT or USS to confirm their position in the ureter.
  • Examine the RUQ and transpyloric plane at the level of L1 for evidence of gallstones (15% radio-opaque) or pancreatic calcification. Again, confirmation with USS or CT is indicated.

What is Acute Coronary Syndrome

 Coronary heart disease is a major cause of death and disability in developed countries and the world
•Unstable coronary disease (ACS) is characterized by plaque rupture or erosion with associated thrombosis
–STEMI
–NSTEMI
–Unstable angina
•STEMI is a true medical emergency

ECG in STEMI
•ECG is a mainstay in the initial diagnosis of patients with suspected ACS which will dictate management
•In patients with acute STEMI the ECG evolves through a typical sequence

•Definition of STEMI
–New ST elevation at the J point in two contiguous leads of >0.1 mV in all leads other than leads V2-V3
–For leads V2-V3 the following cut points apply: ≥0.2 mV in men ≥40 years, ≥0.25 mV in men <40 years, or ≥0.15 mV in women
•Other conditions which are treated as a STEMI
–New or presumed new LBBB
–Isolated posterior MI
•The presence of reciprocal ST depression helps confirm the diagnosis

Examples of ECG Changes in STEMI:

What are contiguous leads?

Contiguous leads are “next” to one another anatomically speaking. They view the same general area of the heart (specifically the left ventricle).The “inferior” leads (II, III and aVF) view the inferior wall of the left ventricle. Remember that the inerior leads make up the lower-left corner of the 12 lead ECG.The “septal” leads (V1 and V2) view the septal wall of the left ventricle. They are sometimes grouped together with the anterior leads.The “anterior” leads (V3 and V4) view the anterior wall of the left ventricle.The “lateral” leads (I, aVL, V5 and V6) view the lateral wall of the left ventricle. Leads I and aVL are sometimes referred to as the “high lateral” leads, because their positive electrode is on the left shoulder. Leads V5 and V6 are sometimes referred to as the “low lateral” leads because their positive electrodes are on the lateral left chest.

A 78 years old male, with h/o back pain for few months. The above x-ray of the patient is suggestive of ?

The popular mnemonics to remember is DRSABCD. This is quite simple to understand and interpret accordingly.

D – Details  about the patient and the x-ray. Why it’s important? Well, a what’s can go wrong if we interpret another patient’s x-ray for some one else. We describe details under the following sub heading.
