Medicaid and Uninsured populations are a significant focus of current healthcare reform. We hypothesized that outcomes following major surgical operations in the United States is dependent on primary payer status.From 2003 to 2007, 893,658 were evaluated using Nationwide Inpatient Sample (NIS) database: lung resection, esophagectomy, colectomy, pancreatectomy, gastrectomy, abdominal aortic aneurysm repair, hip replacement, coronary artery bypass. Patients stratified by status: Medicare (n =...
Objectives: STAT Mortality Categories (developed 2009) stratify congenital heart surgery procedures into groups of increasing mortality risk to characterize case mix providers. This update the Score and is empirically based for all reflects contemporary outcomes. Methods: Cardiovascular surgical operations in Society Thoracic Surgeons Congenital Heart Surgery Database (January 1, 2010 – June 30, 2017) were analyzed. In this 2020 Update Categories, associated with a specific combination was...
Background: Anomalous aortic origin of a coronary artery (CA) is the second leading cause sudden cardiac death in young athletes. Management controversial and longitudinal follow-up data are sparse. We aim to evaluate outcomes prospective study anomalous CA patients following standardized algorithm. Methods: Patients with were followed prospectively from December 2012 April 2017. All evaluated algorithm, reviewed by dedicated multidisciplinary team. Assessment myocardial perfusion was...
Anomalous aortic origin of a right coronary artery may cause myocardial ischemia and sudden death in the young. Data on or longitudinal outcomes are sparse pediatric anomalous population.Patients <21 years with were prospectively enrolled. Computerized tomography angiography defined morphology. Exercise stress test perfusion imaging (sPI) performed if >7 younger concern for ischemia. High-risk features included intramural length, slit-like/hypoplastic ostium, exertional symptoms, evidence...
Abstract BACKGROUND: Radiotherapy (RT) has been a risk factor for development of soft tissue sarcomas (STS). The objective the current study was to quantify STS after RT and surgery breast cancer (BCa), assess time trends, compare long‐term survival patients with RT‐associated non–RT‐associated angiosarcoma (AS) using Surveillance, Epidemiology, End Results (SEER) database. METHODS: Women BCa reported SEER in 1973 2003 were included. Kaplan‐Meier curves proportional hazards models, as ratios...
Background: Anomalous aortic origin of a coronary artery (AAOCA) is common congenital heart lesion that may be rarely associated with myocardial ischemia and sudden death in the young. Evidence-based criteria for managing young patients AAOCA are lacking. The Congenital Heart Surgeons Society (CHSS) established multicenter registry aged ≤30 years to develop these criteria. Methods: All institutional members CHSS eligible enroll patients. Patients were enrolled retrospectively if diagnosis...
Background: Intraseptal anomalous aortic origin of a coronary artery is considered benign condition. However, there have been case reports patients with myocardial ischemia, arrhythmia, and sudden cardiac death. The purpose this study was to determine the clinical presentation, perfusion on provocative stress testing, management children an intraseptal course in prospective cohort. Methods: Patients were prospectively enrolled from December 2012 May 2019, evaluated, managed following...
Background: Anomalous aortic origin of a coronary artery (AAOCA) encompasses wide morphologic spectrum, which has impeded consensus regarding indications for the diverse repair strategies. We constructed profile current surgical techniques and explore their application to variants. Methods: Patients <30 years old (n = 113) with isolated AAOCA who underwent operations at 29 Congenital Heart Surgeons Society (CHSS) institutions from 1998 2012 were identified CHSS Registry. Operative...
Anomalous aortic origin of the left coronary artery (AAOLCA) confers a rare, but significant, risk sudden cardiac death in children. Surgery is recommended for interarterial AAOLCA, and other subtypes considered benign. We aimed to determine clinical characteristics outcomes 3 AAOLCA subtypes.All patients with <21 years old were prospectively enrolled (December 2012-November 2020), including group 1: from right sinus course, 2: intraseptal 3: juxtacommissural between noncoronary sinus....
