Artificial intelligence (AI) is gaining traction in medicine and surgery. AI-based applications can offer tools to examine high-volume data inform predictive analytics that supports complex decision-making processes. Time-sensitive trauma emergency contexts are often challenging. The study aims investigate surgeons' knowledge perception of using clinical
PURPOSE The optimal neoadjuvant treatment for resectable carcinoma of the thoracic esophagus (TE) or gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) remains a matter debate. We performed an individual participant data (IPD) network meta-analysis (NMA) randomized controlled trials (RCTs) to study effect chemotherapy chemoradiotherapy, with focus on tumor location and histology subgroups. PATIENTS AND METHODS All, published unpublished, RCTs closed accrual before December 31, 2015 having compared at least two...
OBJECTIVES: To provide a narrative review of hospital violence (HV) and its impact on critical care clinicians. DATA SOURCES: Detailed search strategy using PubMed OVID Medline for English language articles describing HV, risk factors, precipitating events, consequences, mitigation strategies. STUDY SELECTION: Studies that specifically addressed HV involving medicine clinicians or their practice settings were selected. The time frame was limited to the last 15 years enhance relevance current...
OBJECTIVES: To explore gamification as an alternative approach to healthcare education and its potential applications critical care. DATA SOURCES: English language manuscripts addressing: 1) theory application in care 2) implementation science focused on the knowledge-to-practice gap were identified Medline PubMed databases (inception 2023). STUDY SELECTION: Studies delineating underpinnings, or procedural mentoring, utilization for practice, analyses of benefits pitfalls comparison other...
Colorectal cancer commonly presents first as an emergency and is likely to be complicated by bowel obstruction/perforation requiring more difficult procedures, with poorer outcomes. Analysis of all the procedures performed on patients diagnosed in Wexford General Hospital, Ireland, during period 2000 2006 was carried out validate this hypothesis our western European population.Retrospective analysis a prospectively maintained database patient demographics, diagnosis, mode presentation...
Frailty is common among patients with hip fracture and may, in part, contribute to the increased risk of mortality morbidity after surgery. This study aimed develop a novel frailty score for traumatic that could be used predict postoperative as well facilitate further research into role fracture.
Postoperative death within 1 year following hip fracture surgery is reported to be up 27%. In the current study, we benchmarked predictive precision and accuracy of algorithms support vector machine (SVM), naïve Bayes classifier (NB), random forest (RF) against logistic regression (LR) in predicting 1-year postoperative mortality patients as well assessed relative importance variables included LR model. All adult who underwent primary emergency Sweden, between January 2008 31 December 2017...
Acute appendicitis is a common surgical emergency, and the standard approach to diagnosis management has been codified in several practice guidelines. Adherence these guidelines provides insight into independent patterns institutional resource constraints as impediments best practice. We explored data from recent ESTES SnapAppy observational cohort study determine guideline compliance contemporary identify opportunities close evidence-to-practice gaps.We undertook preplanned analysis of...
Abstract Background Shared decision-making (SDM) between clinicians and patients is one of the pillars modern patient-centric philosophy care. This study aims to explore SDM in discipline trauma emergency surgery, investigating its interpretation as well barriers facilitators for implementation among surgeons. Methods Grounding on literature topics understanding, barriers, a survey was created by multidisciplinary committee endorsed World Society Emergency Surgery (WSES). The sent all 917...
Abstract Background Small bowel obstruction (SBO) is a common surgical emergency associated with substantial morbidity, hospital length of stay (LOS), and healthcare cost. The World Society Emergency Surgery (WSES) Bologna guidelines provide evidence-informed recommendations for managing adhesive SBO, promoting timely intervention (or non-operative management (NOM) when ischaemia, strangulation, or peritonitis are absent). However, guideline adoption its impact on outcomes remain under...
Abstract Background Geriatric patients frequently undergo emergency general surgery and accrue a greater risk of postoperative complications fatal outcomes than the population. It is highly relevant to develop most appropriate care measures guide patient-centered decision-making around end-of-life care. Portsmouth - Physiological Operative Severity Score for enumeration Mortality morbidity (P-POSSUM) has been used predict mortality in undergoing different types surgery. In present study, we...
