Walled-off pancreatic necrosis (WON) is a sequelae of acute pancreatitis that requires debridement, once infected. Recently, endoscopic necrosectomy has become the mainstay for management. However, peripancreatic collections extend to paracolic gutter or lesser sac, are more challenging treat endoscopically. We report an method management necrotic into gutter.Consecutive patients, with symptomatic WON extending retroperitoneum, were included in prospective registry. Each patient underwent...
Abstract Length of stay is an important metric in healthcare systems, primarily because it reflects the cost care provided. In United States, as many countries, inpatient hospital stays are significantly more expensive than outpatient across all conditions,1 so earlier discharge and transition to crucial help control ever-increasing healthcare. burn patients, length has traditionally been estimated at 1 day per 1% total body surface area burn. This estimation was first described a round...
Carpometacarpal (CMC) fracture-dislocations are uncommon hand injuries, with few studies available regarding their treatment. The current operative treatment options include fixation K-wires, mini-screws, or plates, though there is no standardized approach because of varying injury patterns and complications associated each device. INnate™ threaded intramedullary nail a relatively novel option that has shown promise in metacarpal fracture by facilitating faster mobilization recovery enhanced...
Treatment for burn scars with associated joint contracture has been a long-studied topic few concrete, definitive answers. While preventative measures scar are often discussed, very recent papers highlight conservative treatment after formation. We present two cases of patients wound that improved in mobility and range motion serial casting. Although our were mature from musculoskeletal standpoint, first patient was able to improve her neutral ankle position by 20° progressive, fixed...
Abstract Introduction Split-thickness skin grafts have remained the mainstay treatment for 2nd and 3rd-degree burns. Traditional dermatome (TD) with a rotating circular blade (DRO) are devices that been used grafting since 1900s 2013, respectively. Few studies conducted analyzing graft harvesting DRO. Our study analyzed depth consistency when DRO versus TD. We this using varying levels of expertise, gathered both devices, compared across graft. Methods The was on deidentified cadaver. There...
Abstract Toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) is a drug-mediated disease process that mimics partial-thickness thermal injury. It has long been treated with frequent wound dressing changes and supportive care. There minimal efficacious systemic therapy. The pathophysiology poorly understood but causes necrosis of keratinocytes at the dermal–epidermal junction leading to sloughing epidermis. rare high mortality rates associated hospital stays. This case report describes application autologous...
Objectives: High risks of falls have been reported in older adults with chronic pain but similarly affects all ages. This cross-sectional study aimed to determine the prevalence and associated risk factors ages living pain. Materials Methods: Patient-reported data were analyzed from 591 enrolled a local clinic between November 2017 April 2019. Sociodemographic, history falls, biopsychosocial measures examined identify describe who fell previous year. Factors using logistic regression....
Abstract Introduction Autologous split-thickness skin grafts (STSG) have been the gold standard concerning treatment of both full and partial thickness burns. However, new treatments are emerging such as spray-on autologous keratinocyte suspensions (AKS). AKS is composed a patient’s own keratinocytes, fibroblasts, melanocytes. STSG in conjunction with has showed promising results for deep The graft takedown historically on postoperative day (POD) 6. Once take down occurs, occupational...
