Single-center retrospective cohort.To compare surgical outcomes of patients based on lumbar drain variables relating to output and duration.The use drains following spine surgery, specifically with respect hospital readmission, postoperative hematoma, anemia, site infections, has been controversial.Patients aged ≥18 years who underwent fusion a between 2017 2020 were included grouped readmission status, last 8-hour (<40 mL cutoff), or duration (2 days cutoff). Total all drains, total the...
This study sought to analyze the efficacy and safety of postoperative prednisone reduce reliance on opioids in adult benign oropharyngeal surgery.
Study Design: This was a retrospective cohort study. Objective: To determine if age (younger than 65) and Medicare status affect patient outcomes following lumbar fusion. Summary of Background Data: is common spine surgery insurance provider, but most qualifying patients are older 65. There paucity literature investigating clinical for under the Materials Methods: Patients 40 years who underwent fusion between 2014 2019 were queried from electronic medical records. with >2 levels fused,...
Four-corner arthrodesis is commonly performed for advanced collapse patterns of wrist arthritis. Reduction the capitolunate (CL) angle during four-corner fusion crucial to allow greatest radiocarpal joint arc motion. Previous studies demonstrate variable inter- and intraobserver reliability measuring CL angle. However, in a fusion, hardware implementation scaphoid excision can complicate carpal alignment measurements. The purpose this study investigate parameters following arthrodesis.
The purpose of this study was to identify and characterize factors that may contribute revision surgery following primary cubital tunnel release (CuTR) surgery.
Study Design. Retrospective cohort study. Objective. The objective of this study was to determine if baseline prognostic nutritional index (PNI) score could be used predict outcomes in patients with native spine infections, including the need for operative intervention. Summary Background Data. Nutritional status is an important, potentially modifiable risk factor, consider population. a tool that has demonstrated utility as marker preoperative undergoing surgery, however it not yet been...
Despite smartphone ownership becoming ubiquitous, it is unclear whether and where disparities persist in experience using health apps. In 2 diverse samples of adults with type diabetes collected 2017-2018 2020-2021, we examined adjusted app use by age, gender, race, education, annual household income, insurance status, literacy, hemoglobin A1c. the earlier sample (N = 422), 87% owned a 49% those had ever used app. Participants lower income or limited literacy ≥50% odds owning smartphone....
