Abstract Introduction Increased mortality has been demonstrated in older adults with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), but the effect of frailty unclear. Methods This multi-centre cohort study involved patients aged 18 years and hospitalised COVID-19, using routinely collected data. We used Cox regression analysis to assess impact age, delirium on risk inpatient mortality, adjusting for sex, illness severity, inflammation co-morbidities. ordinal logistic Clinical Frailty Scale (CFS)...
Artificial intelligence (AI) is gaining traction in medicine and surgery. AI-based applications can offer tools to examine high-volume data inform predictive analytics that supports complex decision-making processes. Time-sensitive trauma emergency contexts are often challenging. The study aims investigate surgeons' knowledge perception of using clinical
Timing and adequacy of peritoneal source control are the most important pillars in management patients with acute peritonitis. Therefore, early prognostic evaluation peritonitis is paramount to assess severity establish a prompt appropriate treatment. The objectives this study were identify clinical laboratory predictors for in-hospital mortality develop warning score system, based on easily recognizable assessable variables, globally accepted.This worldwide multicentre observational...
Emergency surgery represents a unique context. Trauma teams are often multidisciplinary and need to operate under extreme stress time constraints, sometimes with no awareness of the trauma's causes or patient's personal clinical information. In this perspective, dynamics how trauma function is fundamental ensuring best performance outcomes.An online survey was conducted among World Society Surgery members in early 2021. 402 fully filled questionnaires on topics knowledge translation tools,...
Acute mesenteric ischaemia (AMI) is a condition with high mortality. This survey assesses current attitudes and practices to manage AMI worldwide.A questionnaire about the of diagnosing managing AMI, endorsed by several specialist societies, was sent different medical specialists hospitals worldwide. Data from individual health care professionals teams were collected.We collected 493 forms 71 countries 94 team 34 countries. Almost half respondents surgeons, most responding (70%) led...
Abstract Background Shared decision-making (SDM) between clinicians and patients is one of the pillars modern patient-centric philosophy care. This study aims to explore SDM in discipline trauma emergency surgery, investigating its interpretation as well barriers facilitators for implementation among surgeons. Methods Grounding on literature topics understanding, barriers, a survey was created by multidisciplinary committee endorsed World Society Emergency Surgery (WSES). The sent all 917...
The objectives of the study were to investigate organizational characteristics acute care facilities worldwide in preventing and managing infections surgery; assess participants' perception regarding infection prevention control (IPC) measures, antibiotic prescribing practices, source control; describe awareness about global burden antimicrobial resistance (AMR) IPC measures; determine role Coronavirus Disease 2019 pandemic on said awareness.A cross-sectional web-based survey was conducted...
Abstract Purpose This study aims to compare the outcomes of laparoscopic versus open repair techniques in patients undergoing emergency surgery for incarcerated incisional hernia a tertiary care setting. Methods A prospective evaluation was conducted on 45 who underwent and between 2018 August 2021. Patients were divided into two groups based surgical technique used: ( n = 15) 30). Key variables analysed included demographic data, body mass index, American Society Anesthesiologists scores,...
BACKGROUND Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is an invasive endoscopic procedure used mainly to treat hepato-pancreato-biliary (HPB) diseases. The need for ERCP has increased with the rising number of HPB diseases over past decade. Thus, due demand, performed at more centers. Currently, it by general surgeons, gastroenterology and radiology specialists in United States Europe as recommended British Society Gastroenterology (BSG). AIM To present results procedures from...
Abstract Background Acute appendicitis is the most common non-gynecological emergency during pregnancy. The diagnosis of pregnancy challenging due to changes in both physiological and laboratory variables. Guidelines suggest patients with suspected acute should be stratified based on clinical scoring systems, optimize use diagnostic imaging prevent unnecessary surgery. Surgeons require additional information beyond that provided by studies before deciding upon exploratory laparoscopy a high...
Abstract Background Investigating the context of trauma and acute care surgery, article aims at understanding factors that can enhance some ethical aspects, namely importance patient consent, perceptiveness role leader, perceived ethics as an educational subject. Methods The employs international questionnaire promoted by World Society Emergency Surgery. Results Through analysis 402 fully filled questionnaires surgeons from 72 different countries, three main topics are investigated through...
Endoscopic detorsion is the first-line recommended treatment modality in sigmoid volvulus patients who have no peritoneal irritation signs on admission. In this paper, we present results of endoscopic procedures applied at time presentation with diagnosis and review current literature about topic.
Objective: To compare the outcomes between two methods of dissection (balloon trocar vs. telescopic dissection) used in total extra-peritoneal (TEP) inguinal hernia repair.
Introduction: Abdominal pain requires rapid diagnosis and treatment, especially in emergency circumstances. Sometimes the of disease cannot be accomplished with laboratory imaging methods, an invasive procedure such as diagnostic laparoscopy may required to obtain a diagnosis. Diagnostic is also performed therapeutically, but laparotomy inevitable some cases. The aim study evaluate role treatment retrospectively examine factors that force surgeon perform laparotomy. Material Methods:...
Introduction: Botulinum toxin A (BTX -A) is a powerful and long-acting inhibitor of muscle contractions in both striated smooth muscles.BTX-A inhibits peristalsis by reducing the release acetylcholine, which responsible for gastric motility.Thus, it causes delay emptying, early satiety weight loss.The aim this study to observe effects endoscopic intragastric injection BTX-A obese patients.Methods: Intragastric botox was applied 67 patients.The average age these patients 38 body mass index 32...
Abdominal cocoon syndrome (ACS) is a rare situation and has an unknown etiology. Patients are characterized by the development of intraabdominal fibrotic tissue surrounding small intestine as result chronic inflammation peritoneum. Small bowel perforations due to foreign bodies not frequent in clinical practice. The coexistence these two situations extremely uncommon. In this article, radiological findings treatment process patient who presented with acute abdomen association conditions presented.
