Presentation during nights and weekends has been associated with variations in care poor outcomes for many time-sensitive conditions such as trauma, stroke, cardiac arrest. We sought to determine whether variation clinical exists patients treated by the emergency general surgery service at our trauma center. performed a retrospective cohort study Level 1 center (2017-2022) of who transferred from other facilities or presented directly department. The primary exposure variable was...
The use of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) as salvage therapy for patients with severe acute respiratory distress syndrome is gaining greater acceptance among trauma intensivists. objective this study was to review ECMO usage in the USA.The National Inpatient Sample (NIS) from years 2002 2012 queried aged 15 and older treated who had one or more traumatic injuries defined by International Diagnostic Codes, Ninth Edition (ICD-9). primary outcomes interest were incidence overall...
The oyster toadfish (Opsanus tau) is an ideal model to examine the effects of anthropogenic noise on behavior because they rely acoustic signals for mate attraction and social interactions. We predict that have acclimated living in noise-rich environments are common waterways urban areas, like New York City (NYC). used passive monitoring at two locations see if calling patterns altered areas typically high boat traffic versus low (Pier 40, NYC, NY, Eel Pond, Woods Hole, MA, respectively)....
BACKGROUND In patients for whom surgical equipoise exists damage control laparotomy (DCL) and definitive (DEF), the effect of DCL its associated resource utilization are unknown. We hypothesized that DEF would be with fewer abdominal complications less utilization. METHODS 2016, six US Level I trauma centers performed a yearlong, prospective, quality improvement project primary aim to safely decrease use DCL. From this cohort undergoing emergent laparotomy, those who underwent but were...
BACKGROUND Rates of damage control laparotomy (DCL) vary widely and consensus on appropriate indications does not exist. The purposes this multicenter quality improvement (QI) project were to decrease the use DCL identify where exists. METHODS In 2016, six US Level I trauma centers performed a yearlong, QI utilizing single tool: audit feedback. Each emergent was prospectively reviewed. Damage cases adjudicated based majority vote faculty members as being or potentially, in retrospect, safe...
The authors raise an interesting question. To date, studies evaluating cervical spine clearance in elderly patients are limited to retrospective, single institution studies. add this body of literature and frame it the context radiology resource utilization. Indeed, significant numbers unnecessary scans could delay reading other critical imaging. It is a worthy goal continually reevaluate our current standards practice optimize patient care. Canadian C-Spine Rule1 most commonly used...
