Neurosurgeons lack precise insights into the true costs of transsphenoidal endoscopic surgery for sellar and suprasellar lesions (TESS), including pituitary adenomas, craniopharyngiomas, apoplexy. To address this critical knowledge gap, we employ time-driven activity-based costing (TDABC) TESS. We analyzed 221 TESS procedures performed between 2017 2022 at a large academic medical center. Costs were calculated using TDABC. Software was developed to extract information regarding all resources...

Objectives Venous thromboembolism is a potentially fatal complication of superficial endovenous treatment. Proper risk assessment and thromboprophylaxis could mitigate this hazard; however, there are currently no evidence-based or consensus guidelines. This study surveyed UK Republic Ireland vascular consultants to determine areas consensus. Methods A 32-item survey was sent via the Vascular Endovascular Research Network (phase 1). These results generated 10 statements which were...

BACKGROUND A eutectic mixture of lidocaine and prilocaine (EMLA) has been shown to be effective in reducing pain from needle sticks, including those associated with blood sampling intravenous insertion. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effectiveness EMLA cream applied before puncture for local anesthetic administration minor surgical procedures this double-blind, randomized, controlled, parallel-group study. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients were randomly assigned receive or placebo (Aqueous) under an...

Basic surgical skills are an integral part of training. Simulation-based training offers opportunity both to trainees and trainers learn teach outside the operating room in a nonpatient, nonstressed environment. However, widespread adoption simulation technology especially medical education is prohibited by its inherent higher cost, limited space, interruptions clinical duties. Mobile laboratory has been proposed as means address some these limitations. A new program designed Royal College...

Vascular graft implantation is a very common practice in clinics; however, one of the major limitations synthetic vascular grafts that they are prone to infection, which has drastic implications. In severe stages this requires removal graft, if left untreated mortality almost definite. Therefore, it important detect infection early disease process manage and eliminate with appropriate drug delivery. However, current detection methods time consuming, not reliable expensive. researchers...

The association of autoimmune disease (AI) with transplant‐free survival in the setting severe Group 3 pulmonary hypertension and extensive fibrosis remains unclear. We report cases (mean artery pressure ≥35 mmHg right ventricular dysfunction) after arterial hypertension‐specific therapy. used multivariate regression to determine clinical variables associated survival. Of 286 screened patients, 55 demonstrated were treated parenteral prostacyclin (+)AI subgroup (n = 34), when compared (–)AI...

Objective We sought to determine if any histopathologic component of the pulmonary microcirculation can distinguish systemic sclerosis ( SS c)‐related fibrosis PF ) with and without hypertension PH ). Methods Two pathologists blindly evaluated 360 histologic slides from lungs 31 c‐ explants or autopsies (n = 22) 9) . The presence abnormal small arteries, veins, capillaries (pulmonary microcirculation) was semiquantitatively assessed in areas preserved lung architecture. Capillary...
