    Abstract Venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation is increasingly used for mechanical circulatory support during lung transplant. Optimal intensity of intraoperative anticoagulation would be expected to mitigate thromboembolism without increasing bleeding and blood product transfusions. Yet, the optimal intensity of intraoperative anticoagulation is unknown. We performed a retrospective cohort study of 163 patients who received a bilateral lung transplant at a single center. We categorized the intensity of anticoagulation into 4 groups (very low to high) based on the bolus dose of unfractionated heparin given during lung transplant and compared the rates of intraoperative blood transfusions and the occurrence of thromboembolism between groups. When compared to the very low-intensity group, each higher intensity group was associated with higher red blood cell, fresh frozen plasma, and platelet transfusions. The occurrence of thromboembolism was similar across groups. These preliminary data suggest that lower intensity anticoagulation may reduce the rate of intraoperative blood transfusions, although further study is needed.

    Abstract A hollow viscus injury is an uncommon but potentially dangerous intra-abdominal injury that can result from blunt abdominal trauma. It can be misdiagnosed in patient, particularly when the patient has other concerning findings. Also, diagnosis can be increasingly difficult in a patient with a pre-existing ventral hernia and chronic abdominal pain. In this case we present a 66-year-old women, with a history of a large ventral hernia and chronic abdominal pain, who presented to the emergency department after a motor vehicle crash (MVC). Patient denied abdominal tenderness at the time of presentation and the initial computed tomography (CT) did not demonstrate any abnormal findings within the abdomen. Patient later began experiencing increased abdominal pain and presented with a small bowel perforation within the hernia that required a bowel resection and hernia repair.  A review of the literature reveals that not only are hollow viscus injuries rare but there appears to be few documented cases of viscus injuries occurring within a existing ventral hernia.

    Abstract This research investigates the impact of socio-demographic factors such as age, gender, income and location on ICT acceptance for diabetes self-care. The investigation is due to the increasing number of diabetic patients in South Africa, where large segments of the population experience technological forms of exclusions. The context warrants research in geographical areas where ICT use is not pervasive yet. This research, used the UTAUT model with purposive sampling for 497 diabetic respondents, residing in low socio-economic communities. It analysed survey data using linear regression. It found that age had a strong moderating effect on all four UTAUT constructs. Gender only had a moderating effect on performance expectancy and social influence. In contrast to findings in the extant literature, income and location had no significant moderating effect in this context.
