Free flaps for scalp reconstruction occasionally traverse the face to reach recipient vessels in neck if superficial temporal are unavailable and vein grafts circumvented. When using latissimus flap, facial skin at exposure incision is not redundant enough cover proximal flap. Integra® (Integra LifeScience) can be applied exposed portion of flap containing vascular pedicle, expediting completion operation without need perform immediate grafting. If perfusion marginal, surgeon relieved...
Objectives Variability in opioid-prescribing practices after common pediatric surgical procedures at our institution prompted the development of guidelines that provided suggested dose limitations for narcotics. The aims this study were to improve opioid prescription through implementation developed and assess compliance identify barriers preventing guideline utilization. Methods We conducted a single-center cohort all children who underwent most outpatient general surgery from August 1,...
The ability to competently suture is an expected skill for graduating medical students, but many graduates report feeling unprepared perform this skill. This study aimed improve student confidence and clinical readiness third-year clerkships by implementing a novel, mandatory 7.5-hour longitudinal suturing skills curriculum across the first 3 years of school.The required was implemented all students throughout school at large academic health center in mid-South United States. Precurriculum...
Polyether ether ketone (PEEK) custom implants have been fundamental in addressing bone malformations and restoring traumatic defects within the field of craniofacial surgery. Although such are generally considered safe appropriate alternatives to autologous grafts, there has a lack standardized reporting adverse events associated with PEEK implants. The purpose this study is multi-fold: (1) explore current landscape allogeneic materials utilized for grafting; (2) analyze characterize from...
Blue Rubber Bleb Nevus Syndrome is a congenital rarity that manifests as vascular malformations throughout the body, including gastrointestinal tract. With fewer than 300 cases reported, etiology and clinical course poorly understood; however, literature suggests TEK mutations on chromosome 9 result in unregulated angiogenesis. We present case of young female treated for anemia unknown who presented hemorrhagic shock due to hemorrhage necessitating small bowel resection, with cutaneous,...
Sepsis prevention pathways, which often include blood and urine cultures, are common in children's hospitals. Fever tachycardia, signs seen patients with appendicitis, frequently trigger these pathways. We hypothesized that cultures were obtained children appendicitis.We conducted a single-center retrospective cohort study evaluating image-confirmed appendicitis from 4/1/2019 to 10/1/2020, coinciding the initiation of sepsis Factors associated culture acquisition, as well results, treatment,...
