- Which Model is Better to Teach How to Perform Tube Thoracostomy: Synthetic, Cadaver, or Animal?(2022) MEYER-PFLUG, Adriano Ribeiro; RASSLAN, Roberto; USSAMI, Edson Yassushi; SILVA, Francisco de Salles Collet e; OTOCH, Jose Pinhata; DAMOUS, Sergio Henrique Bastos; MONTERO, Edna Frasson de Souza; MENOGOZZO, Carlos Augusto Metidieri; VIEIRA, Joaquim Edson; UTIYAMA, Edivaldo MassazoIntroduction: The lack of standardized skill training reported by medical students in performing tube thoracostomies may be associated with higher complications. The ideal training model is yet to be determined. This study sought to evaluate three different models. Methods: Between 2015 and 2017, 204 last-year medical students of Universidade de Sao Paulo with no prior training in tube thoracostomy were randomized into three groups: cadaver, pig, and synthetic models. All groups performed 1-d tube thoracostomy hands-on training and a 40-min theoretical class. The knowledge acquisition was measured by a comparison between a theoretical test before and 3 wk after the class, and the skills improvement was evaluated by a comparison between the skills test on the same day of the hands-on training and another after 24 wk (the retention skill test). A questionnaire was submitted to evaluate their satisfaction rate and self-reported confidence, as per a Likert scale. Results: The theoretical post-test score was higher compared to the pretest score in all groups (P < 0.001). The retention skills test in the cadaver and synthetic groups decreased compared to the skills test (P = 0.01 and P = 0.007, respectively). There was no difference between the groups either in the theoretical test or in the skills test. Student satisfaction was higher in the cadaver and pig groups. The confidence perception increased in all groups after the training. Conclusions: The models used for tube thoracostomy training appear to have a similar impact on skills retention, knowledge acquisition, and confidence. Although the satisfaction rate is lower for the synthetic model, it has no biological risk or ethical issues and is more feasible. (C) 2022 Published by Elsevier Inc.
- N-acetylcysteine reduces the renal oxidative stress and apoptosis induced by hemorrhagic shock(2016) MOREIRA, Miriam Aparecida; IRIGOYEN, Maria Claudia; SAAD, Karen Ruggeri; SAAD, Paulo Fernandes; KOIKE, Marcia Kiyomi; MONTERO, Edna Frasson de Souza; MARTINS, Jose LuizBackground: Renal ischemia/reperfusion injury induced by hemorrhagic shock (HS) and subsequent fluid resuscitation is a common cause of acute renal failure. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of combining N-acetylcysteine (NAC) with fluid resuscitation on renal injury in rats that underwent HS. Materials and methods: Two groups of male Wistar rats were induced to controlled HS at 35 mm Hg mean arterial pressure for 60 min. After this period, the HS and fluid resuscitation (HS/R) group was resuscitated with lactate containing 50% of the blood that was withdrawn. The HS/R + NAC group was resuscitated with Ringer's lactate combined with 150 mg/kg of NAC and blood. The sham group animals were catheterized but were not subjected to shock. All animals were kept under anesthesia and euthanized after 120 min of fluid resuscitation or observation. Results: Animals treated with NAC presented attenuation of histologic lesions, reduced oxidative stress, and apoptosis markers when compared with animals from the HS/R group. The serum creatinine was similar in all the groups. Conclusions: NAC is a promising drug for combining with fluid resuscitation to attenuate the kidney injury associated with HS.
- Pulmonary impact of N-acetylcysteine in a controlled hemorrhagic shock model in rats(2013) SAAD, Karen Ruggeri; SAAD, Paulo Fernandes; DANTAS FILHO, Luiz; BRITO, Jose Mara de; KOIKE, Marcia Kiyomi; ZANONI, Fernando Luiz; DOLHNIKOFF, Marisa; MONTERO, Edna Frasson de SouzaBackground: Experimental hemorrhagic shock (HS) is based on controlling bleeding and the treatment of fluid resuscitation to restore tissue oxygenation and perfusion. The HS could promote ischemia/reperfusion injury, which induces a general exacerbation of the inflammatory process, initially compromising the lungs. N-acetylcysteine (NAC), an antioxidant, may attenuate ischemia/reperfusion injury. This study evaluated the effect of NAC in association with fluid resuscitation on pulmonary injury in a controlled HS model in rats. Methods: Male Wistar rats were submitted to controlled HS (mean arterial pressure of 35 mm Hg for 60 min). Two groups were constituted according to resuscitation solution administered: RLG (Ringer's lactate solution) and RLG+NAC (Ringer's lactate in association with 150 mg/kg NAC. A control group was submitted to catheterization only. After 120 min of resuscitation, bronchoalveolar lavage was performed to assess intra-alveolar cell infiltration and pulmonary tissue was collected for assessment of malondialdehyde, interleukin 6, and interleukin 10 and histopathology. Results: Compared with the RLG group, the RLG+NAC group showed lower bronchoalveolar lavage inflammatory cell numbers, lower interstitial inflammatory infiltration in pulmonary parenchyma, and lower malondialdehyde concentration. However, tissue cytokine (interleukin 6 and interleukin 10) expression levels were similar. Conclusion: N-acetylcysteine was associated with fluid resuscitationeattenuated oxidative stress and inflammatory cell infiltration in pulmonary parenchyma. N-acetylcysteine did not modify cytokine expression.
