She was found to be in cardiogenic shock. Her initial EKG was concerning for STEMI and her troponin was positive. She was eventually diagnosed with spontaneous coronary artery dissection. This case report discusses her presentation, management, and clinical course. We emphasize the need for emergency medicine physicians to be concerned for SCAD, especially in women with a history of fibromuscular dysplasia, connective tissue disorders, or peri-partum status.展开更多
目的:调查国内多器官功能障碍综合征(multiple organ dysfunction syndrome,MODS)患者脓毒性休克的发生、病死情况。方法:采用多中心、现况调查方法,分析2002年3月—2005年1月全国11省市、37家三级医院1 087例MODS患者的病例情况。结果:...目的:调查国内多器官功能障碍综合征(multiple organ dysfunction syndrome,MODS)患者脓毒性休克的发生、病死情况。方法:采用多中心、现况调查方法,分析2002年3月—2005年1月全国11省市、37家三级医院1 087例MODS患者的病例情况。结果:1087例患者中,发生脓毒性休克的患者占39.7%,28d住院病死率为60.4%,随着年龄的增长,病死率逐渐上升。结论:脓毒性休克具有较高的病死率。年龄≥55岁、黑便、粪便潜血阳性是MODS患者发生脓毒性休克的主要高危因素,而年龄≥50岁、血pH值<7.35为MODS合并脓毒性休克的患者死亡的高危因素。展开更多
