Traumatic brain injury (TBI) in combination with shock has been associated hypocoagulability. However, recent data suggest that TBI itself can promote a systemic procoagulant state via the release of brain-derived extracellular vesicles. The objective our study was to identify if differences thrombelastography indices when controlling for other variables coagulopathy following trauma. We hypothesized is independently less coagulopathic state.Prospective includes all highest-level trauma...
There are no national studies of nonelective readmissions after emergency general surgery (EGS) diagnoses that track nonindex hospital readmission. We sought to determine the rate overall and at 30 90 days discharge for EGS diagnoses, hypothesizing a significant portion would be hospitals.The 2013 2014 Nationwide Readmissions Database was queried all patients 16 years or older admitted with an primary diagnosis survived index hospitalization. Multivariable logistic regression identified risk...

Objective: Active duty military surgeons often have limited trauma surgery experience prior to deployment. Consequently, military-civilian training programs been developed at high-volume centers evaluate and maintain proficiencies. Advanced Surgical Skills for Exposure in Trauma (ASSET) was incorporated into the predeployment curriculum Army Training Detachment 2011. This is first study assess whether demonstrated improved knowledge increased confidence after taking ASSET.

Previous studies have debated the optimal time to perform excision and grafting of second- third-degree burns. The current consensus is that should be performed before sixth hospital day. We hypothesize patients who undergo within 48 hours better outcomes.The American College Surgeons Trauma Quality Programs data set was used identify all with at least 10% total body surface area burns from years 2017 2019. Patients other serious injuries (any Abbreviated Injury Scale, >3), severe...
Objective: Considerable variation in primary spontaneous pneumothorax (PSP) management exists the pediatric population. This study aims to compare nationwide outcomes of children with PSP. Methods: The Nationwide Readmissions Database (2016 2018) was used identify patients 1 18 years old Trauma, secondary pneumothoraces, and elective admissions were excluded. Demographics complications compared among undergoing initial nonoperative (NOM; observation or percutaneous drainage) operative...
