Purpose: This study aimed to demonstrate the performance of popular artificial intelligence (AI) language model, Chat Generative Pre-trained Transformer (ChatGPT) (OpenAI, San Francisco, CA, U.S.A.), in generating informed consent (IC) document blepharoplasty. Methods: A total 2 prompts were provided ChatGPT generate IC documents. Four board-certified plastic surgeons and 4 nonmedical staff members evaluated AI-generated documents original currently used clinical setting. They assessed these...
Background: Nonvascularized fat grafting has become one of the most popular options for breast contouring. However, survival process grafts remains to be elucidated. In this study, we tracked fate nonvascularized with in vivo bioluminescence and immunohistochemistry. Methods: or vascularized adiposal flaps from luciferase transgenic rats were transplanted Lewis rats. The bioluminescent signals monitored longitudinally. addition, engrafted viability adipocytes was evaluated...
BackgroundIn breast reconstruction, symmetry is a vital issue. However, when the original unusually shaped or patient desires augmentation at time of obtaining symmetrical breasts becomes difficult.
Abstract Background The prevalence and risk factors of cholelithiasis in individuals with severe or profound intellectual motor disabilities (SPIMD) are poorly characterised. Thus, we aimed to investigate the determinants a cohort SPIMD under medical care residential facility. Methods We categorised 84 patients hospital for persons into groups: those (Group CL) without N) cholelithiasis. Gallstones were detected via computed tomography, ultrasonography both. evaluated gastrostomy status,...
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect blood flow-restricted training (BFRT) on jump performance in relation changes muscle strength. Seventeen untrained young men were assigned into either BFRT or normal (NORT) groups and performed low-intensity [30–40% one-repetition maximum (1RM)] resistance exercise (horizontal squat, 3–4 sets × 15–30 repetitions) twice a week for 10 weeks. with their proximal thighs compressed by air-pressure cuffs flow restriction. Squat 1RM,...
Early detection of compromised circulation is essential for postoperative monitoring free flap. Hourly clinical check-ups such as inspection and palpation still result in a delay detection. Conversely, optical reflection temperature measurement are useful alternatives detecting blood circulation. However, conventional methods that verify ischemia congestion within short period have not been reported. In this study, we measured short-term changes rat flap using wearable flexible sensor probe...
Abstract Wearable sensors have seen remarkable recent technological developments, and their role in healthcare is expected to expand. Specifically, monitoring tissue circulation patients who undergone reconstructive surgery critical because blood flow deficiencies must be rescued within hours or the transplant will fail due thrombosis/haematoma artery vein. We design a wearable, wireless, continuous, multipoint sensor monitor circulation. The system measures pulse waves, skin colour,...
Restoring facial symmetry is a major treatment goal of paralysis. Surgical techniques have evolved with the aim reconstructing paralyzed side as similar possible to nonparalyzed side. Therefore, quantitative measure asymmetry important for plastic surgery operations. Several graphic systems quantify been proposed. However, they are often time-consuming, may require expensive and complicated hardware, not widely used.1 Recent advances in artificial intelligence opened new avenues analysis...
Compromised circulation is a potential complication during the postoperative period following tissue transplantation. The use of monitoring device allows physicians to detect compromised immediately. Such devices need be continuously usable, wearable, and area-detectable. However, existing fail satisfy all these requirements simultaneously. We developed multipoint pulse wave-monitoring device. An array reflective optical sensors implemented on thin film substrate was used as lightweight...
This study analyzed the blink characteristics of patients with incomplete and complete facial paralysis. The authors measured compared palpebral distance, eyelid movement eye-closing ratio blinks in 55 Bell's palsy or Ramsay Hunt syndrome (Bell & group) 14 paralysis (Complete Paralysis group). Bell group, distance (7.94 mm) was smaller on paralyzed side than non-paralyzed (9.61 mm). eyeclosing upper were reduced (65.3% versus 93.7%, 4.61 7.97 Complete group (25.3% 94.7%, 2.10 8.49 In...
Composite grafts are excellent options for treating external nasal deformities because they provide support and include the skin, which improves delicate anatomy of nose. However, constrained by size limits since rely on blood flow to bed. This is a critical issue when recipient sites have scarring or degenerative diseases. A novel stair-step incision was made produce graft bed with supply maximize use nonvascularized composite grafts. Instead making full-thickness defect through skin...
Various neurovascular free muscle transfers for smile reconstruction in patients with facial paralysis have been reported. However, these methods focused on perioral smiling rather than eye smiling. Although the lower eyelid does not contribute significantly to closure, dynamic reanimation of upward movement bulging malar region during is important reconstruction. The authors present a novel procedure and V-shaped latissimus dorsi flap containing descending branch (DB) thoracodorsal nerve...
Although the great toe plays important roles in walking, loading, and maintaining balance when compared with other toes, there are few reports on reconstruction, including reconstruction of distal phalanx. This report aims to describe use a superficial circumflex iliac artery perforator (SCIP)-osteocutaneous flap for reconstructing complex tissue defect toe. A 62-year-old man presented crush injury forefoot. Because was severely crushed, proximal phalanx reconstructed using...
Summary: Syndactyly of the hand is commonly treated using local flaps with skin grafts; however, contractures and/or pigmentation pose a challenge, requiring repeated surgery. Here, we describe case 1-year-old boy who underwent web transplantation for syndactyly. To best our knowledge, no “web web” transplantations have been documented in pediatric literature. Because patient had an “extra” space, functional and aesthetic reconstruction was performed careful preparation. The vascular pattern...
Tissue circulation monitoring is an effective method to detect compromised in time after tissue transplantation. Use of flexible photoplethysmography (PPG) devices for allows the continuous measurement signals at multiple positions on tissue. An algorithm evaluation that considers motion artifacts also necessary such devices, although conventional algorithms cannot be used with weak PPG during circulation. In this study, we developed discriminates between three states – normal circulation,...
Orbital roof fracture is a relatively rare trauma. In most cases, surgical intervention not needed since the slight. However, invasive procedures are inevitable once pulsatile exophthalmos occurs if vision impairment to be avoided. We report our experience of orbital in child with exophthalmos. Good reconstruction anterior cranial base was achieved using custom-made titanium mesh and minimally approach. A 3-year-old girl who had been diagnosed subdural hematoma, brain contusion, right caused...
Direct browlift is useful but leaves a scar above the brow. We proposed dual-plane to avoid facial scarring while effectively resolving brow ptosis in young and adult patients.
Medical device-related pressure injuries result from the external exerted by medical devices on skin or subcutaneous floor. Although concept of was recently proposed, it has not gained widespread acceptance, frequently leading to management these alongside common ulcers without distinction. However, is important acknowledge that differ and should be treated accordingly. We herein report a case stage 4 injury in median back caused rigid dorsal brace. In addition, we describe successful...
