Enhanced recovery may be viewed as a comprehensive approach to improving meaningful outcomes in patients undergoing major surgery. Evidence support enhanced pathways (ERPs) is strong colorectal There some controversy about the adoption of specific elements "bundles" because relative importance different components ERPs hard discern (a consequence multiple simultaneous changes clinical practice when are initiated). evidence that approaches fluid management better than alternatives surgery;...
To examine implementing an enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocol for women undergoing major gynecologic at academic institution and compare surgical outcomes before implementation.Two ERAS protocols were developed: a full pathway using regional anesthesia open procedures light without vaginal minimally invasive procedures. Enhanced pathways included extensive preoperative counseling, carbohydrate loading oral fluids surgery, multimodal analgesia with avoidance of intravenous...
BACKGROUND: Hospital readmission rates are an increasingly important quality metric since enactment of the 2012 Readmissions Reduction Program. The proliferation enhanced recovery protocols and earlier discharge raises concerns for increased rates. OBJECTIVE: We evaluated effect on readmissions identified risk factors readmission. DESIGN: This study involved implementation a multidisciplinary protocol. SETTINGS: It was conducted at large academic medical center PATIENTS: All patients...
Abstract During surgery, various haemodynamic variables are monitored and optimised to maintain organ perfusion pressure oxygen delivery – eventually improve outcomes. Important that provide an understanding of most pathophysiologic conditions during surgery include heart rate, arterial pressure, central venous pulse variation/stroke volume variation, stroke volume, cardiac output. A basic physiologic these the corresponding monitoring methods is essential. We therefore revisit rationale for...
Abstract Background The explosion of biomedical information has led to an ‘information paradox’—the volume available made it increasingly difficult find relevant when needed. It is thus critical for physicians acquire a working knowledge informatics. Aim To evaluate four search tools commonly used answer clinical questions, in terms accuracy, speed, and user confidence. Methods From December 2008 June 2009, medical students, resident physicians, attending at the authors' institution were...
The effects of both hyperglycemia and hypoglycemia are deleterious to patients with neurologic injury.On January 1, 2002, the neurointensive care unit at University Virginia Health System initiated a strict glucose control protocol (goal < 120 mg/dl). authors conducted an impact study determine this on presenting aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage.Among 834 admitted between 1995 2007, in-hospital mortality was 11.6%. median admission for survivors lower (135 vs. 176 mg/dl); however,...
Liver transplantation may be complicated by massive intraoperative bleeding, and red blood cell (RBC) transfusions required. The storage duration or age of transfused RBCs has been shown to affect the morbidity mortality critically ill, trauma, cardiac surgery patients. Here we investigate effect RBC on outcomes liver transplant Five hundred thirty-one patients underwent orthotopic between January 1, 2000 August 15, 2010. patient demographics, Model for End-Stage Disease-sodium (MELD-Na)...
