Safety-net hospitals (SNHs) provide essential services to predominantly underserved patients regardless of their ability pay. We hypothesized that who underwent coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) would have inferior observed outcomes at SNHs compared with non-SNHs but matched cohorts comparable outcomes.We queried the Nationwide Readmissions Database for isolated CABG from 2016 2018. ranked by percentage all admissions in which patient was uninsured or insured Medicaid; top quartile were...
(1) Background: This study examines frailty’s impact on proximal aortic surgery outcomes. (2) Methods: All patients with a thoracic aneurysm who underwent root, ascending aorta, or arch from the 2016–2017 National Inpatient Sample were included. Frailty was defined by Adjusted Clinical Groups Indicator. Outcomes of interest included in-hospital mortality and composite death, stroke, acute kidney injury (AKI), major bleeding (MACE). (3) Results: Among 5745 patients, 405 (7.0%) met frailty...
The relation of angiographically recognized coronary occlusion to regional myocardial blood flow has not been studied adequately in spite its clinical significance. This is particularly important, as revascularization procedures, based on angiographic studies, are being performed with increasing frequency. To compare the severity reduction occlusion, (85-Kr washout) was measured 34 patients. Selective anteriograms were obtained using Sones technique, and occlusions graded a percentage...
Objective: Conventional endoscopy remains the gold standard for detecting esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) despite its high cost and need expertise. In resource-poor regions, a less labor-intensive yet accurate screening tool is needed. The purpose of this study to assess feasibility establishing non-endoscopic program in rural India test diagnostic accuracy EsophaCap swallowable sponge ESCC high-risk patient population. Methods: A prospective cohort was conducted between 2017 2019,...
