Amyand's hernia is an unusual condition characterized by the presence of a normal or inflamed appendix located within inguinal hernia. We present rare situation wherein 56-year-old male patient presented with incarcerated in right He was emergently taken to operating room, diagnostic laparoscopy changed open, due cecum and terminal ileum. The segment had be resected primary anastomosis. purulent contents were washed out, defect left unrepaired abscess canal.
Abstract Bile duct injury (BDI) is a potentially devastating complication after cholecystectomy. Familiarity with the diagnosis and multidisciplinary treatment options imperative. This report highlights utility of rendezvous stenting procedure in high-risk patient describes rare involving stent misplacement through surgical drain. 96-year-old female who suffered Strasburg Class D during cholecystectomy, repaired over T-tube. The T-tube dislodged postoperatively. Endoscopic transhepatic...
BackgroundThe COVID-19 pandemic revealed flaws in the stockpiling and distribution of ventilators. In this study, we assessed durability, sterilizability, performance a 3D-printed ventilator.MethodsSLS-printed devices were dropped from 1.83 m autoclaved before evaluation on simulated patient. The respiratory an extrusion-printed device was studied using variable compliance model. Ranges sustainable rates evaluated as function tidal volume.ResultsAutoclaving dropping did not negatively impact...
Abstract During the Coronavirus-19, or COVID-19, pandemic there was an early shortage of available ventilators. Domestic production limited by dependence on overseas sources raw materials despite partnering with automotive manufacturers. Our group has developed a 3D printed alternative called CRISIS ventilator. Its design is similar to existing resuscitator devices market and uses modified Pressure-Control ventilation. Here we compare performance device simulated ARDS lung handling different...
Abstract The coronavirus disease of 2019 (COVID-19) has altered medical practice around the globe and revealed critical deficiencies in hospital supply chains ranging from adequate personal protective equipment to life-sustaining ventilators for critically ill hospitalized patients. We developed CRISIS ventilator, a gas-powered resuscitator that functions without electricity, which can be manufactured using hobby-level three-dimensional (3D) printers standard off-the-shelf available at local...
As the proportion of geriatric patients increases, so too does incidence trauma. Trauma centres must develop protocols to reduce risk complications from injuries in this specialised patient population. From a soft tissue standpoint, open wounds tend heal slower these and have significant impact on their quality life. In case report, we describe our protocol for managing traumatic skin tears using combination grafts minced expansion with photographic documentation healing an elderly involved...
