Residents’ Practices and Perceptions About Do Not Resuscitate Orders and Pronouncing Death: An Opportunity for Clinical Training

American Journal of Hospice and Palliative Medicine® (2010)

Mohammad Siddiqui Jean L. Holley

Although ''Do not resuscitate'' (DNR) orders are among the most commonly discussed patient preference treatment measures, few studies have assessed internal medicine residents' views on this complex topic. Our objective was to assess resident practices in establishing code status. We also examined resident training and experiences in pronouncing death.An 18-question survey addressing DNR discussions and pronouncing death was emailed to internal medicine residents in the state of Illinois. Each question had multiple-choice options.A total of 175 residents completed the questionnaire (22% response rate). Seventy-eight percent of the residents had discussed DNR status with patients or their families at least 9 times. However, only one third of the residents felt very comfortable in such discussions. Only 26% of the residents had been observed by a faculty member during a code status discussion and fewer (16%) while pronouncing death. Do not resuscitate discussions rarely occurred in an outpatient clinic (27%). Most residents (90%) thought they would benefit from formal training in DNR discussion.Although most residents discuss DNR status with patients and families, only a quarter are observed in such discussions by attending physicians and only a third feel comfortable with this aspect of clinical care. Developing a structured residency program curriculum to address resident skills in end-of-life care would benefit residency training.

Atypical Case of Mucosal Malignant Melanoma

The American Journal of Gastroenterology (2008)

Neetu Mahendraker Mohammad Siddiqui Jyothi Reddy

Purpose: Malignant melanoma of the gastrointestinal mucosa in the absence of cutaneous lesions is very rare. We report an unusual case of primary malignant melanoma of the duodenal mucosa. A 38-year-old diabetic male presented with nausea, bilious vomiting and severe, colicky, epigastric pain for 3 days associated with worsening jaundice for 7 days. Proton pump inhibitors were started 3 months earlier for “heart burn”. Review of systems was positive for decreased appetite. Rest of the history was non contributory. Physical exam revealed stable vitals; scleral icterus and epigastric tenderness. Initial laboratory work up was significant for elevated total bilirubin, transaminases and alkaline phosphatase suggestive of obstructive jaundice. Computed Tomography scan of abdomen with contrast showed hepatic hilar lymphadenopathy and biliary obstruction. Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatogram revealed ulcerated proximal duodenal mass with common bile duct (CBD) stricture. Pathology confirmed duodenal malignant melanoma with involvement of CBD. Comprehensive physical exam to rule out any cutaneous or retinal melanoma was negative. Extensive imaging with whole body positron emission tomography and magnetic resonance imaging of the brain did not reveal any other foci. Despite being on chemotherapy and radiotherapy patient rapidly deteriorated with extensive metastasis and expired within 8 months of diagnosis. This case illustrates that a high index of suspicion is warranted to diagnose mucosal malignant melanoma in a timely manner which can originate in esoteric locations and progress rapidly with significant mortality.

Predictors of Mortality in Patients with Lower Extremity Peripheral Arterial Disease: 5‐Year Follow‐up

Journal of Interventional Cardiology (2009)

Zehra Jaffery Adam B. Greenbaum Mohammad Siddiqui Neetu Mahendraker Vikesh Gupta

Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is associated with increased mortality. Lower extremity (LE) revascularization improves symptoms, but less is known about long-term survival benefits of LE arterial revascularization.Two hundred and eighty-three patients with an ankle brachial index (ABI) or=65 years (HR 2.42 [95% CI 1.52-3.85], P < 0.001), history of coronary artery disease (HR 1.67 [95% CI 1.13-2.46], P = 0.010), chronic kidney disease (HR 1.75 [95% CI 1.15-2.67], P = 0.010), and an ABI

Prevention of Damage to Cuffed Catheters

Home Hemodialysis International (1999)

Mahendra Agraharkar Mohammad Siddiqui Tejinder S. Ahuja

Cuffed catheters, although not ideal for long-term use, are now used more frequently due to an increase in the aging population, in whom the vessels are not suitable for either arteriovenous fistulas or polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) grafts. Infections and thrombosis remain the major causes for removal or change of catheters. We recently identified eight catheter defects that required replacement of catheters. Of these, two were due to patient negligence: one catheter was accidentally severed while the patient was shaving; the other was snipped during a haircut. One was believed to have a manufacturing defect. One catheter sustained needle-prick damage near the hub while irrigating the catheter. Two catheters were lost due to needle pricks during skin closure, and one catheter sustained similar damage while fixing the suture wing to the skin. The other two were damaged by suture material slicing through the lumen of the catheter as it expanded due to increased blood flow during repeated dialyses. Importantly, several of these injuries to the catheters were not immediately obvious and were detected only after repeated use of the catheters. Delayed bleeding of cuffed catheters necessitating change or removal has not been reported. Such bleeding may be due to manufacturing defects, patient carelessness, or iatrogenic causes. Avoiding the use of sutures can minimize the latter. Skin closure strips and a double transparent dressing may serve the same purposes, such as securing the catheter and aiding wound healing. In addition, these dressings have the added advantage of being waterproof, bacteria-proof, and cost effective.
