The current COVID-19 pandemic underlines the importance of a mindful utilization financial and human resources. Preserving resources manpower is paramount in healthcare. It important to ensure ability surgeons specialized professionals function through pandemic. A conscious effort should be made minimize infection this sector. high mortality rate within group would detrimental. This manuscript result collaboration between major Italian surgical anesthesiologic societies: ACOI, SIC, SICUT,...
Background: The management of high-surgical risk patients with moderate to severe acute cholecystitis is challenging in clinical practice. Early laparoscopic cholecystectomy considered the gold standard for who do not respond conservative treatment. However, those unfit surgery due risk, alternative treatment options such as percutaneous cholecystostomy (PC) are available. There no clear guidelines regarding following PC. primary aim this study was propose indications PC and establish...
Viral pneumonia is the most relevant clinical presentation of COVID-19 which may lead to severe acute respiratory syndrome and even death. Eosinopenia was often noticed in patients with pneumonia, but its role poorly investigated. The aim present study investigate characteristics outcomes eosinopenia.We revised records consecutive admitted our ER-COVID-19 area order compare without eosinopenia. We considered following outcomes: 4-weeks survival; need for intensive support; hospital...
SUMMARY In February 2020, 2019 novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) outbreak put the whole health system of Lombardy (Northern Italy) under severe pressure. The response was immediate, nevertheless, aggressiveness infection causing acute respiratory syndrome with immediate need hundreds intensive care unit (ICU) beds exceeded surge capacity. impact on surgical activities has been massive and surgeons had to deal several problems, such as canceling lists, supporting other medical areas, putting in...
Background: We aimed to assess the ability of comprehensive complication index (CCI) and Clavien-Dindo (CDC) scale predict excessive length hospital stay (e-LOS) in patients undergoing liver resection for hepatocellular carcinoma. Methods: Patients were identified from an Italian multi-institutional database randomly selected be included either a derivation or validation set. Multivariate logistic regression models ROC curve analysis including CCI CDC as predictors e-LOS fitted compare...
Clear indications on how to select retreatments for recurrent hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) are still lacking.To create a machine learning predictive model of survival after HCC recurrence allocate patients their best potential treatment.Real-life data were obtained from an Italian registry between January 2008 and December 2019 median (IQR) follow-up 27 (12-51) months. External validation was made derived by another cohort Japanese cohort. Patients who experienced first surgical approach...
Laparoscopic adhesiolysis has been demonstrated to be technically feasible in small bowel obstruction and carries advantages terms of post-surgical course. The increasing dissemination laparoscopic surgery the emergency setting lack concrete evidence literature have called for a consensus conference draw recommendations clinical practice.A search was used outline evidence, held between experts field. A survey international added expertise debate. public jury surgeons discussed validated...
During pandemic, admissions for surgical emergencies dropped down dramatically. Also acute appendicitis decreased. The aim of the present study was to evaluate change in volume and clinical presentation patients with during pandemic variation treatment.This is a retrospective admitted 11 Italian hospital lockdown period (March-April 2020) compared same previous 2 years (2018-2019). number rate complicated non-complicated were recorded between two periods; non-operative vs operative treatment...
ERAS pathway has been proposed as the standard of care in elective abdominal surgery. Guidelines on emergency surgery have recently published; however, few evidences are still available literature. The aim this study was to evaluate feasibility an enhanced recovery protocol a large cohort patients undergoing and identify possible factors impacting postoperative compliance.This is prospective multicenter observational including who underwent major general for either intra-abdominal infection...
Cardiac arrest in the operating room is a rare but potentially life-threatening event with mortality rates of more than 50%. Contributing factors are often known, and recognised rapidly as patients usually under full monitoring. This guideline covers perioperative period complementary to European Resuscitation Council (ERC) guidelines.The Society Anaesthesiology Intensive Care for Trauma Emergency Surgery jointly nominated panel experts develop guidelines recognition, treatment prevention...
Background: There still is reluctance among surgeons when it comes to using bedside US in their daily clinical practice, except for very specific fields.Generally, the decision-making process relies on imaging techniques (e.g. CT, MRI). This may lead a latency of execution, and consequently delay decision making.Objectives: The purpose this study assess economic impact systematic routine use surgeon-performed point-of-care (SP-POCUS) everyday activities surgical department, both urgent...
