A Prospective Study

Background: The aim of the study is to investigate whether the circadian IOP rhythm can be influenced by combined cataract surgery with high frequency deep sclerotomy (HFDS) and whether intraocular pressure (IOP) can be significantly reduced by HFDS. Methods: In our study 10 patients were included, in whom 24 h IOP monitoring was installed before and after HFDS/cataract surgery using a Triggerfish. HFDS is a minimally invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS). Results: After performed HFDS combined with cataract surgery, the IOP was reduced from 27.7 ± 2.11 mmHg to 14.4 ± 2.59 mmHg, which is highly significant (p < 0.001). The contact lens sensor (CLS) cosinor analysis pre- and postoperatively showed that the circadian rhythm is not influenced by the surgery, i.e., the circadian IOP rhythm did not show significant differences before and after surgery. Conclusions: HFDS combined with cataract surgery is a potent surgical method that can significantly reduce the IOP. However, the circadian rhythm cannot be changed by the surgery. The acrophase remained during the night in all patients.

A Prospective Study

Aim A prospective study was undertaken to assess the diagnostic value and therapeutic usefulness of fibreoptic bronchoscopy in the critically ill. Method Fifty-six bronchoscopies were performed in fifty patients. Biochemical, radiological, microbiological and clinical assessments were made before and after each procedure. Results Eighteen fibreoptic bronchoscopies were performed for therapeutic indications (32.1%) of which ten (55.6%) yielded a useful outcome. Thirty-eight bronchoscopies were for diagnostic purposes (67.8%) of which 22 (5 7.9%) were clinically useful. Broncho-alveolar lavage was performed in twenty-eight cases (50%) and it led to a clinically useful diagnosis in 17 (60.7%). There was no major complication. A subgroup of patients was defined (persistent left lower lobe collapse or consolidation following thoracic or abdominal surgery) in whom fibreoptic bronchoscopy usually did not yield a useful outcome. Conclusion The use of fibreoptic bronchoscopy in the Intensive Care Unit, in combination with the technique of broncho-alveolar lavage, results in a clinically useful outcome in the majority of cases. Fibreoptic bronchoscopy is an effective and safe diagnostic and therapeutic tool in critically ill patients.
