Consumers of higher levels Brassica vegetables, particularly those the genus (broccoli, Brussels sprouts and cabbage), reduce their susceptibility to cancer at a variety organ sites. vegetables contain high concentrations glucosinolates that can be hydrolyzed by plant enzyme, myrosinase, or intestinal microflora isothiocyanates, potent inducers cytoprotective enzymes inhibitors carcinogenesis. Oral administration either isothiocyanate, sulforaphane, its glucosinolate precursor,...
The aims of this study were to: (a) assess the prevalence diagnosed OSA and symptoms undiagnosed in a cohort ambulatory surgical patients, (b) characterize frequency postoperative complications outpatients with diagnosis or propensity to OSA.
loss (restenosis) > 6 months after PCI compared to those with AHI < 10. 5 Literature regarding outcomes cardiac surgery in patients OSA is sparse, and little known about the Study Objectives: We examined prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) among undergoing its impact on postoperative outcomes.Methods: Subjects were recruited from inpatient cardiovascular units at two tertiary care centers.Crystal Monitor 20-H recorded polysomnograms preoperatively.Regression analyses performed...
To identify baseline patient characteristics associated with increased susceptibility to surgical site infection (SSI) after elective surgery.The Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services considers SSI be preventable through adherence current control practices; however, the etiology of wound is incompletely understood.Prospective cohort study involving patients undergoing cardiac, vascular, craniotomy, spinal surgery at 2 academic medical centers in Baltimore, MD. A comprehensive history was...
The American Society of Anesthesia practice guidelines recommend that pediatric and adult patients who undergo ambulatory surgery be screened for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). With this in mind, our objective was to assess the frequency screening by anesthesia providers signs symptoms OSA children undergoing an setting.Prospective single-blinded observational study providers' preoperative interview caregivers consecutive younger than age 18 were scheduled surgery.One hundred one (30...
Abstract: With recent advances in surgical and anesthetic technique, there has been a growing emphasis on the delivery of care to patients undergoing ambulatory procedures increasing complexity. Appropriate patient selection meticulous preparation are vital provision safe, quality perioperative experience. It is not unusual for with complex medical histories substantial systemic disease be scheduled discharge same day as their procedure. The trend “push envelope” by triaging progressively...
