Indwelling pleural catheters (IPCs) are commonly used in the management of malignant pleural effusion (MPE). There is little data on their use in non-malignant conditions. All IPC insertions for non-malignant cases from five large UK centres were found using prospectively maintained databases. ...
Studies suggest that noncatheterized male and female residents with bacteriuria living in nursing homes have no higher frequency of courses of antimicrobial treatment, infections, or hospitalizations than those without persistent bacteriuria. As a result, screening for ASB in the elderly should be ...
11-13 A pilot nonrandomized study (n = 65) suggested that patients with malignant pleural effusion treated with indwelling pleural catheters spent less time in hospital (8% vs 11.2% of their remaining lifespan) than those treated with talc pleurodesis.14 The Australasian Malignant Pleural ...

Whole blood is routed into the system from a subject’s peripheral vein with a single cannulation using a dual-lumen catheter (Fig. 1c) via the efflux lumen (designated as in-flow in Fig. 1a) then through the CTC capture module, exiting back into the subject’s circulatory system via th...

indwelling pleural catheterPleural effusions account for significant symptoms and morbidity. Recent studies demonstrate a high mortality in patients with benign pleural effusions, now better characterized as nonmalignant pleural effusions (NMPEs) based on their prognosis. The most common nonmalignant ...
