Abstract Objectives The aims of this study were, first, to establish the agreement between digital and ultrasound assessment occipital position and, second, evaluate repeatability measurements head direction, angle middle line, progression distance in women second stage labor. Methods Digital examination then transabdominal was performed on 50 labor determine fetal position. We also obtained three‐dimensional (3D) blocks by transperineal sonography, two experts 3D measured progression....
New cases of the novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), also known as severe acute respiratory syndrome 2 (SARS-CoV-2), continue to rise worldwide following declaration a pandemic by World Health Organization (WHO). The current has completely altered workflow health services worldwide. However, even during this critical period, patients with other diseases, like cancer, need be properly treated. A few reports have shown that mortality due SARS-CoV-2 is higher in elderly and those active...
Objective: To compare 90-day morbidity in patients undergoing lung lobectomy performed by either robotic-assisted thoracic surgery (RATS) or video-assisted (VATS). Intraoperative complications, drainage time, length of hospital stay, postoperative pain, quality life, and readmissions within 90 days were also compared. Methods: This was a two-arm randomized clinical trial including with lesions (primary cancer metastasis) who candidates for lobectomy. Patients comorbidities that precluded...
Pleurodesis is one of the best methods controlling malignant pleural effusions (MPE), a distressing complication metastatic disease. In recent studies wide range diseases, iodopovidone was used as sclerosing agent for pleurodesis and demonstrated good results with low morbidity. The aim this study to evaluate efficacy safety in MPE.A retrospective analysis performed on patients MPE who underwent at our institution between 2005 2008. All instillation 20 mL 10% iodopovidone, 80 normal saline 2...
Our previous study demonstrated the safety and short-term efficacy of robotic-assisted thoracic surgery (RATS) in clinical N2 (c-N2) stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. From this, present was devised, which follow-up time sample size were both extended to explore long-term potential benefit survival RATS compared with lobectomy c-N2 NSCLC patients.Patients NSCLS randomly assigned a 1:1 ratio accept operation through thoracotomy or RATS. The da Vinci Surgical System (Si/Xi)...
The primary objective of the study was to evaluate health-related quality life (HRQL) patients with benign post-intubation tracheal stenosis considered as unfit for surgical treatment. Secondary objectives were: (I) determine if clinical variables (gender, age, total treatment time, and type device) could influence HRQL (II) compare results a normal standardized population.Prospective between August-2014 December-2016 including treated silicone stents, T-Tubes or tracheostomy. Candidates...
<b><i>Background:</i></b> Silver nitrate (SN) is an alternative to talc pleurodesis in patients with malignant pleural effusion (MPE). Nevertheless, SN complications have not been thoroughly investigated so far. <b><i>Objective:</i></b> To evaluate frequent adverse events (AE) of treatment at three different doses for MPE. The secondary objective was systemic inflammation, efficacy and quality life these patients....
