Observational Study[Iatrogenic events: A significant cause of admission in intensive care units.]
Identification and analysis of iatrogenic events leading to admission in intensive care units. ⋯ Iatrogenic event is a significant cause of ICU admission, involved in 12% of all the hospitalizations in our unit. It has an impact on the patient's profile (significantly older) and their ICU stay (increased need for transfusion). More than a third of events could be preventable and potentially accessible to corrective actions.

Case Reports[Sub-capsular renal hematoma during severe preeclampsia: Clinical case and review of the literature.]
Renal haematoma during severe preeclampsia is a rare uneventful event. It is usually associated with other organ injury such as cerebral or liver haematoma. ⋯ In the current case report, we describe an isolated renal haematoma during a severe preeclampsia complicated by a HELLP syndrome. This patient was managed with a conservative treatment (control of arterial pressure and induction of delivery) and an imaging follow-up.
