The patient’s bladder malignancy was initially treated with transurethral resection, with histopathology at that procedure showing high-grade papillary urothelial malignancy with lamina propria invasion, but no muscular invasion; this procedure was followed by formal complete resection approximately 3 months later.

One complication that can develop in patients with ARDS who are mechanically ventilated is a bronchopleural fistula (BPF). Although rare, the frequency of BPF in patients with COVID-19 pneumonia is increasingly recognized. Here, we present a 48-year old man with BPF associated with COVID-19 pneumonia. Treatment with a commercial endobronchial valve (EBV) system resulted in reduced air leak allowing for tracheostomy placement. Our case adds to a growing body of evidence suggesting that the presence of COVID-19 pneumonia does not hinder the utility of EBV’s in the treatment of BPF’s.","PeriodicalId":87365,"journal":{"name":"Southwest journal of pulmonary & critical care","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46587353","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One aspect of the high cost of healthcare is the cost of new drugs. Cancer drugs have received much of the attention because of their extremely high price (1). For example, crizotinib, used to treat non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), costs $19,144 for each month's supply. Pfizer, the manufacturer of crizotinib, has just announced that they are offering a refund if its drug \"doesn't work\" (2). If crizotinib use is discontinued and documentation of ineffectiveness is provided, Pfizer will refund the out-of-pocket amount that was paid for up to the first three bottles (30-day supply) of crizotinib, up to a maximum of $19,144 for each month's supply, or a total of $57,432. Of course, the cost of care includes more than just a single drug and can be much higher and Pfizer is reimbursing only the drug cost.

Dr. Dona Upson forwarded an article from Sunday’s edition of the Albuquerque Journal featured Michel Boivin, a SWJPCC Associate Editor, in an article titled, “Exhaustion in the ICU: Doctors reflect on state’s nearly 5,000 COVID-19 deaths” (1). Boivin and his wife Teri Heynekamp, a married couple who were many years at the University of New Mexico, shared their thoughts last week on New Mexico nearing 5,000 COVID-19 deaths (Figure 1). Yesterday was Day 587 of the COVID-19 pandemic in New Mexico, just another brief hospital scene amid 19 months of loneliness, fatigue and grief. “We feel exhausted,” Heynekamp said in an interview, “like a type of exhaustion that I’ve never experienced in my life.” Doctors and other health care providers say their workload has hardly let up. Even the arrival of safe, effective vaccines, some doctors say, has provided little relief, introducing a new dynamic instead — the knowledge that most …","PeriodicalId":87365,"journal":{"name":"Southwest journal of pulmonary & critical care","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41900350","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
