Dr. Vipin Malik, M.D.'s Expert Contributions
  • Patient's Guide to ICU

    I have developed this document to help patients and their families navigate critical care processes and vocabulary. It is not comprehensive and can be modified/corrected as/if needed. Direct expert/specialist opinion/consultation should be obtained if there is any confusion or questions that arise...

  • Treating a paralyzed diaphragm?

    Diaphragmatic plication, diaphragmatic pacemaker and Sural Nerve transplantation could be considered. Specialty referral/consultation recommended. READ MORE

  • Low oxygen levels during sleep?

    Brief drops could be due to suboptimal signal but if persistent and especially if observed during sleep the following morning, consider Sleep Apnea. In that situation consider getting overnight pulse oximetry or Home Sleep Study and establishing care with a sleep specialist. READ MORE

  • Chest?

    More detailed history and testing needed but consider hiatal hernia particularly in presence of symptoms GER (gastroesophageal reflux). READ MORE

  • Chronic bronchitis, asthma, vocal cord dysfunction?

    I am unable to see values clearly on scanned reports . Flattening of inspiratory FV loops point towards possibility of extrathoracic airway obstruction such as VCD. If patient has had any major operations requiring prolonged intubation, subglottic stenosis could be considered given ?BOX like feature of FV loops. Patient should get direct laryngoscopy for evaluation of VCD. Cannabis smoking can contribute to chronic bronchitis and she should consider stopping smoking. D-dimer had high negative predictive value and as such borderline elevation might not be that informative. Clinical correlation/examination would be required. Consider silent gastroesophageal reflux as a cause of constant throat clearing. Avoiding eating or drinking within 3 hours of bedtime and elevating head of bed at night could be helpful in minimizing silent GER. READ MORE

  • Ddimer

    Normal D-dimers have high negative predictive value and as such borderline elevated D-dimers might not be informative. Clinical correlation would be required for prognostication regarding PE. Patient can get VQ scan and lower extremity venous dopplers if suspicion for VTE (venous thromboembolism) is high including family history of VTE, use of oral contraceptives, prolonged immobilization, etc..

  • Heavy chest

    Consider Vocal Cord Dysfunction. READ MORE
