Filter by:Postponement of elective surgical procedures is a major issue in health care facilities. It increases burden on hospitals and healthcare systems as well as misery of the patients and their family members. Patient's stay in the hospitals is prolonged. Hospitals and patients resources are wasted and their expenses are increased. The rate of postponement is different in different regions. It is estimated to be in between 9 to 44 %. Reason may be organizational or medical. Elective procedures are cancelled due to insufficient OT timings, non-availability of; anesthetists, blood or beds in ICU, change of plan and medical reasons like respiratory infections, cardiac problems, hypertension and uncontrolled diabetes. Tertiary care hospitals in Peshawar, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan are overburdened and patients on OT list are frequently postponed. Operating room timings has been increased to overcome the issue but no recent data is available regarding actual postponement rate and possible causes in this region. The need is felt to assess the problem and suggest recommendations to decrease patients' sufferings and improve hospital workings.
With all of the gains that have been achieved with endovascular mechanical thrombectomy revascularization and intravenous thrombolysis logistics, there is still a subgroup of patients with salvageable brain tissue for whom persistent emergent large vessel occlusion (ELVO) portends a catastrophic outcome. Study aims to test the safety and efficacy of emergent microsurgical intervention in acute ischemic stroke patients with symptomatic middle cerebral artery occlusion after failure of mechanical thrombectomy.
Randomized clinical trial evaluating changes in functional capacity, postoperative complications and 30-day mortality in patients over 60 years of age undergoing major gastrointestinal surgery who participate in a multimodal prehabilitation program, compared to non-prehabilitated patients.
The first case of COVID-19 was identified on December 19 and the world is actually experiencing a pandemic. The surgical procedure in patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection involves the exposure of other patients and the group of health workers who face the care of the patient. Thus, screening with lung ultrasound is an alternative to identify patients with an established or suspected infection that requires urgent surgery. Therefore, the aim of this study is to determinate the operational characteristics of lung ultrasound during the screening process for SARS-CoV-2 infection in patients with an indication for urgent surgery.
Delirium is a phenomenon which affects patients with various disorders and representing various age groups. Screening instruments make it possible to diagnose the condition at an early stage and to prevent its development. The aim of the study is to examine the reliability and validity of the Polish version of the 4AT (Pol4-AT) in patients after cardiac surgery. Procedure of validation: After obtaining the author's consent, the original English version of the 4AT was separately translated by 3 centres working on the validation of the Pol4-AT (University of Rzeszów, Poland; University Hospital in England; Karolinska University, Sweden). Then, three translations were compared, to be approved by the project supervisor (Karolinska University). Any doubts arising during the comparison were consulted with the English translator. As a result, one coherent version was accepted and translated back into English. The questionnaire was distributed in a convenient sample of 20 patients to examine the validity of the face. Vague words and statements were changed, and the final version translated into Polish was created. The Pol4-AT was tested for internal consistency and reliability.
Pancreatic metastases are a rare entity. In cases of metastatic renal carcinoma (RCC) it can present as isolated pancreatic metastasis, considering the possibility of surgical resection. Goals: - Define survival after resection of pancreatic cancer metastases renal in a wide range of our country. - Identify predictive survival factors Methods: Retrospective multicenter study in which cases of pancreatic resection due to renal cancer metastases.
