This international investigation was designed to determine if, and under what circumstances experiences at science centers, significantly correlated with a range of adult general public technology literacy measures. Given the complex cumulative nature learning, highly variable free-choice center experiences, an epidemiological research approach used. Quantitative surveys were administered 6,089 adults living in 17 communities located 13 countries; all active centers. Data collection analysis...
Adolescent and young adult (AYA) cancer survivors have unique needs, yet few tailored rehabilitation programs exist. CaRE-AYA is an 8-week multidimensional program for AYAs that targets impairments, activity limitations participation restrictions comprises individualized exercise prescription weekly group-based self-management education. We conducted a single-arm multi-method pragmatic feasibility study evaluating CaRE-AYA's feasibility, acceptability, safety (primary outcomes) assessed...
To provide universal accessibility, public community spaces such as museums must be designed considering the experience of all patrons, including visitors living with Autism Spectrum Disorder. develop a better understanding autism at Canada Science and Technology Museum, we invited four school children one adult male for visit, whom identified being on spectrum. They were joined by their support persons. We interviewed adult, his caregiver teaching staff accompanying children. analyzed our...
Worldwide, the number of patients waiting for organ transplantation exceeds organs available. Program uncontrolled donation after circulatory death (uDCD) implemented in Europe has resulted a 10-15% expansion donor pool. We aimed to describe eligible an uDCD program regional tertiary care center.We conducted retrospective cohort study Canadian academic center located rural area including all adults who received cardiopulmonary resuscitation 2016 and died emergency department (ED) or during...
(Abstracted from Am J Obstet Gynecol 2023;228:553.e1–553.e8) The transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block is an anesthetic technique wherein a local solution into the fascial between and internal oblique muscles. TAP has been shown to reduce requirements of opioids after surgery; however, it can be time-consuming for use in operating room setting.
<h3>Introduction</h3> Air travel and cancer surgery are associated with increased risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE). We sought to investigate the incidence postoperative VTE in gynecologic oncology patients who flew before after surgery, prior era routine extended prophylaxis. <h3>Methods</h3> A retrospective cohort study identified 136 having travelled by air from between 2008–2017. All underwent laparoscopy or laparotomy for suspected confirmed malignancy at a single tertiary care...
<h3>Objectives</h3> Surgeon-administered Transversus Abdominis Plane (TAP) block is a contemporary approach to providing postoperative analgesia. We evaluated its efficacy in double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial, hypothesizing that TAP blocks would decrease total opioid use the first 24 hours postoperatively. Secondary outcomes included pain scores, nausea and vomiting, incidence of clinical ileus, time flatus, hospital length-of-stay. <h3>Methods</h3> Patients with suspected...
<h3>Objectives</h3> Studies suggest increased radiosensitivity in mismatch repair deficient (MMRd) endometrial cancers (ECs) compared to MMR intact (MMRi) cohort. The aim of the study was compare recurrence patterns between MMRd and MMRi EC assess whether use radiation leads higher salvage recurrences. <h3>Methods</h3> Newly diagnosed all stages histology were prospectively recruited from 3 cancer centers Ontario, Canada 2015–2018. Tumors reflexively assessed for by immunohistochemistry....
