Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of the accuracy of ventricular catheter placement using freehand placement, ultrasonic guidance, and stereotactic neuronavigation.
TL;DR: Stereotactic- and ultrasound-guided ventricular catheter placements are significantly more accurate than freehand placement, and the use of these intraoperative guidance techniques reduced proximal shunt failure in this study.
Journal ArticleDOI
Management of intracranial hemorrhage in patients with left ventricular assist devices
Thomas J. Wilson,William R. Stetler,Wajd N. Al-Holou,Stephen E. Sullivan,Jeffrey J. Fletcher +4 more
TL;DR: Overall, the development of an ICH significantly reduced survival compared with the natural history of patients on LVAD therapy and the authors' data suggest that withholding aspirin for 1 week and warfarin for 10 days is sufficient to reduce the risk of hemorrhage expansion or rehemorrhage while minimizing therisk of thromboembolic events and pump failure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Risk factors associated with peripherally inserted central venous catheter-related large vein thrombosis in neurological intensive care patients
Thomas J. Wilson,Devin L. Brown,William J. Meurer,William R. Stetler,D. Andrew Wilkinson,Jeffrey J. Fletcher +5 more
TL;DR: Alterations in blood flow and consistency, but not vessel injury, appear associated with symptomatic thrombosis following placement of PICCs in neurological intensive care patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of catheter-related large vein thrombosis in centrally inserted versus peripherally inserted central venous lines in the neurological intensive care unit.
TL;DR: In neurological critical care patients, CICVCs appear to have a better risk profile compared to PICCs, with a decreased risk of CRLVT.
Journal ArticleDOI
Filum terminale lipomas: imaging prevalence, natural history, and conus position.
Michael J. Cools,Wajd N. Al-Holou,William R. Stetler,Thomas J. Wilson,Karin M. Muraszko,Mohannad Ibrahim,Frank La Marca,Hugh J. L. Garton,Cormac O. Maher +8 more
TL;DR: Filum terminale lipomas are a common incidental finding on spinal MRI, and most patients present without associated symptoms, and the untreated natural history is generally benign for asymptomatic patients.
