Abstract
We report herein the case of a 48-year-old woman with a previous history of hip joint surgery due to congenital hip dislocation who experienced massive bleeding during a second operation. Postoperative pelvic angiography revealed large, complex arteriovenous fistulas with combined venous aneurysm. S...

Abstract
We analyzed retrospective data from 239,286 patients 65 years of older who underwent major noncardiac surgery in 1997 to 2004 at veteran hospitals nationwide. Propensity-score matching was used to adjust for differences between patients who received intraoperative blood transfusions (9.4%) and those...

Abstract
We demonstrate, in simulated and live-operating environments, that eye metrics can reliably distinguish nonexpert from expert surgeons. As current medical educators rely on subjective measures of surgical skill, eye metrics may serve as the basis for objective assessment in surgical education and cr...

Abstract
The 47 patients in the CS group were similar to the 47 in the no-CS group for all matched variables. Patients in the CS group received an average of 819 mL of autologous CS blood. The CS group received fewer intraoperative (2 vs 4 U; P = .002) and total (4 vs 8 U; P < .001) units of allogeneic packe...

Abstract
The incidences of sepsis and septic shock exceed those of pulmonary embolism and myocardial infarction. The risk factors for mortality include age older than 60 years, the need for emergency surgery, and the presence of any comorbidity. This study emphasizes the need for early recognition of patient...

Abstract
Abstract
Increasing glucose concentrations exert considerable opposing effects on several well-established innate immunologic processes. The opposing findings might contribute to recent clinical controversies. Physician judgment and experience are essential to imminent treatment of critically ill and periope...

Abstract
Microcirculatory alterations have been repeatedly observed in patients with severe sepsis, but recent findings show that these also occur in patients with severe heart failure and in those submitted to high-risk surgery. More severe and more persistent alterations are observed in patients with a poo...

Abstract
The traditional on-call system for the management of acute general surgical admissions is inefficient and outdated. A new model, Acute Surgical Unit (ASU), was developed at Nepean Hospital in 2006. The ASU is a consultant-driven, independent unit that manages all acute general surgical admissions. T...

Abstract
IMPORTANCE OF THE FIELD: To date, surgical dissection is based only on mechanical forces. The use of a chemical product that is able to ease tissue dissection represents an important advance. MESNA (sodium-2-mercaptoethanesulfonate) has recently been validated for chemically assisted tissue dissecti...

Abstract
An earlier peak in IL-1beta levels and a consistent decrease in TNF-alpha were seen in healing intestinal tissues; but no clear pattern of increased anti-inflammatory or regulatory cytokines was seen, which might explain the earlier healing of intestinal tissues. Additional studies are required to d...

Abstract
After surgery, in sepsis and various critical illnesses, factors such as severity of the acute phase response, liver dysfunction, and hemodilution from blood loss have cumulative impacts in decreasing cholesterol; therefore, degree of hypocholesterolemia often reflects severity of illness. The direc...

Abstract
Hospitalization is a complex experience; this can be made worse if surgical intervention is required, especially when the patient is a child.
