Objective To characterize the work loads and practice patterns of general surgeons in United States over a 3-year period (1995 to 1997). Methods The surgical operative logs 2434 “generalist” recertifying surgery form basis this report. Selected demographics group are as follows: location: 50% Northeast Southeast, 21% Midwest, 29% West Southwest; type: 45% solo, 40% group, 9% academics; size community: 46% highly urban, 19% rural. Parameters evaluated were average number procedures their...
In Brief Objective: To assess changes in general surgery workloads and practice patterns the past decade. Background: Nearly 80% of graduating residents pursue additional training a surgical subspecialty. This has resulted shortage surgeons, especially rural areas. The purpose this study is to characterize surgeons versus certified subspecialists compare these data with those from previous Methods: operative logs 4968 individuals recertifying 2007 2009 were reviewed. Data 3362 (68%) only...
A variation of an extracranial-intracranial arterial bypass is presented. The subclavian artery used as the donor vessel and saphenous vein graft; thus, a to cortical branch middle cerebral can be accomplished. advantage this modification that vein, when tunneled subcutaneously behind ear, positioned in straight line from recipient vessel. Since lies axis head rotation, turning causes little displacement graft, opposed graft common carotid artery. An additional over superficial temporal...
✓ A saphenous vein bypass graft from the contralateral superficial temporal artery to ipsilateral middle cerebral was performed in a patient who required occlusion of his left common carotid artery. This procedure used because unavailability an donor The is working well 8 months postoperatively.
One hundred nineteen patients suffered penetrating cardiac trauma over a 15-year period: 59 had gunshot wounds, 49 stab and 11 shotgun wounds. The overall survival rate was 58%. most commonly injured structures were the ventricles. Twenty-seven injuries to more than one chamber. Thirty associated pulmonary injuries. Emergency thoracotomy performed in 47 with 15% survival. Median sternotomy used 30 90% Seventeen of 83 thoracotomies required extension across sternum for improved exposure or...
The results of adjuvant chemotherapy (CMF), endocrine therapy (t), and immunotherapy (BCG) in 318 women who had undergone mastectomy for Stage I1 breast cancer are reported after 45 months life table analysis.CMFT was found to be more effective than CMF alone increasing recurrence-free survival.This beneficial effect appears limited patients with estrogen receptor-positive tumors (ER+).Patients receptor-negative (ER-) (<3 fmoUmg) have increased recurrence rates higher mortality.
Purpose Good clinical judgment is important to providing high-quality patient care. Keeping current in one's field challenged by rapid advances health care and demanding practices. Understanding the collective factors that influence a practicing physician's could help medical educators design improvement programs target specific audiences. Method Data from two specialty boards, American Board of Internal Medicine Surgery, were used. Multiple regression analyses conducted relating...
