In Brief Objective: Purposes of this study were: 1) to compare mortality and postoperative morbidities (intra-abdominal abscess, wound dehiscence, intestinal stricture) in extremely low birth weight (ELBW) infants who underwent initial laparotomy or drainage for necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) isolated perforation (IP); 2) determine the ability distinguish NEC from IP preoperatively importance distinction on outcome measures; 3) evaluate association between extent disease determined at...
BACKGROUND Nonoperative management of liver and spleen injury should be achievable for more than 95% children. Large national studies continue to show that some regions fail meet these benchmarks. Simultaneously, current guidelines recommend hospitalization grade + 2 (in days). A new treatment algorithm, the ATOMAC guideline, is in clinical use at many centers but has not been prospectively validated. METHODS literature review conducted through MEDLINE identified publications after American...
Nonoperative management (NOM) is standard of care for most pediatric blunt liver and spleen injuries (BLSI); only 5% patients fail NOM in retrospective reports. No prospective studies examine failure BLSI children. The aim this study was to determine the frequency clinical characteristics patients.A observational conducted on 18 years or younger presenting any 10 Level I trauma centers April 2013 January 2016 with computed tomography. Management based Arizona-Texas-Oklahoma-Memphis-Arkansas...
Injury is still the number 1 killer of children ages to 18 years in United States (http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/fastats/children.htm). Children who sustain injuries with resulting disabilities incur significant costs not only for their health care but also productivity lost economy. The families survive childhood injury disability face emotional and financial hardship, along a societal burden. entire process managing enormously complex varies by region. Only comprehensive cooperation broadly...
In the United States, there is a perceived divide regarding benefits and risks of firearm ownership. The American College Surgeons Committee on Trauma Injury Prevention Control designed survey to evaluate (COT) member attitudes about ownership, freedom, responsibility, physician-patient freedom policy, with objective using results inform injury prevention policy development.A 32-question was sent 254 current U.S. COT members by email Qualtrics. SPSS used for χ exact tests nonparametric...
Abstract Background Nonoperative management (NOM) is the standard of care for blunt liver and spleen injuries (BLSI) in stable pediatric patient. Angiography with embolization (AE) utilized as an adjunctive therapy adult BLSI patients, but it rarely population. In this planned secondary analysis, we describe current utilization patterns AE BLSI. Methods After obtaining IRB approval at each center, cohort data was collected prospectively children admitted confirmed on CT 10 Level 1 trauma...
Timely identification of high-risk pediatric trauma patients and appropriate resource mobilization may lead to improved outcomes. We hypothesized that reverse shock index times the motor component Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) (rSIM) would perform equivalently total GCS (rSIG) in prediction mortality need for intervention following trauma.
The base deficit, an important indicator of physiologic derangement after severe injury in adults, has not been specifically examined the pediatric trauma population. purpose this study was to assess ability admission deficit predict severity and outcome population.The group included all patients National Trauma Data Bank over a 2-year period aged 0 12 years with (0 -30 mEq/L) recorded from emergency department. Age, presence closed head injury, were analyzed respect mortality other...
Background: Reconstruction of the abdominal wall poses a problem common to many surgical specialties. Abdominal defects may be caused by trauma and/or prior surgery, with dehiscence or infection. Several options repair structural integrity exist, including primary closure, flaps, mesh, and skin grafts. Complications these procedures include recurrent infection wall, dehiscence, flap death, poor graft take. Risk factors predisposing complications tissue edema, preoperative infection, patient...
