Background: Despite recommendations, maternal influenza vaccine acceptance has stagnated around 50%. Materials and Methods: A prospective cohort study was conducted of pregnant women seen in the clinic from September 2018 to April 2019. Primary outcomes included uptake reasons for refusal, categorized based on Health Belief Model. We compared characteristics between three vaccination groups (never refused, refused vaccinated, not vaccinated) by using chi-square one-way analysis variance....
INTRODUCTION: Tissue dissemination during uncontained laparoscopic electromechanical morcellation has raised safety concerns. This study sought to assess whether contained tissue extraction using morcellators entirely within a bag is safe, practical technique for preventing spillage. METHODS: Patients undergoing or robotic hysterectomy myomectomy at four hospitals were included. After surgical dissection, specimens be extracted placed into containment with blue dye. The was insufflated...
The goal of this study was to evaluate safety after same-day discharge following minimally invasive hysterectomy for endometrial cancer and intraepithelial neoplasia in patients with without morbid obesity (body mass index 40 kg/m2). Our secondary objective identify barriers discharge. Retrospective cohort undergoing from January 2016 May 2022. Complications within 60 days surgery were reviewed. Of those discharge, we compared the 60-day complication rates between obesity. We demographic...
Objective:To establish descriptive observations associated with prolonged hospitalization after laparoscopic hysterectomy prior to the implementation of a department-wide Enhanced Recovery After Surgery protocol.Methods:A retrospective cohort study at three academic affiliated hospitals in southeastern United States was conducted evaluating length by patient, surgical, and physician factors for 384 patients who underwent total hysterectomy, assisted vaginal robotic benign conditions general...

A literature conducted find cases similar approach. Results: Three surgically managed our institution ureteroureteral...
INTRODUCTION: Treatment of chlamydia and gonorrhea in pregnancy decreases adverse health outcomes, including preterm birth. The impact time to treatment on birth is unknown. METHODS: Retrospective cohort study women who delivered at a public hospital between July 2016 June 2018. Polytomous logistic regression was used examine associations no infection, timely (within one week), delayed (after week) very Multifetal gestations, cases diagnosed after 20 weeks, subsequent deliveries from...
