Financial Impact of Anastomotic Leakage in Colorectal Surgery

open access: yes, 2019
Background: Anastomotic leakage after colorectal surgery is a complication that requires additional treatments strongly affecting the economic outcomes. We evaluated the use of resources and the economic burden associated with anastomotic leaks following

Anastomotic Failure Is Not Affected by Anastomotic Technique in Minimally Invasive Two‐Stage Oesophagectomy

open access: yesANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The choice of anastomotic technique in minimally invasive oesophagectomy (MIO) may influence postoperative morbidity and long‐term outcomes. The primary aim of our study is to determine whether circular (CS) or linear‐stapled (LS) anastomosis is associated with anastomotic complications following MIO.

A Review of Linear Stapled‐Sutured Intrathoracic Oesophago‐Gastric Anastomosis by a Single Surgeon Over Three Decades

open access: yesANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper describes the technique of performing an intrathoracic linear stapled/sutured anastomosis between the oesophagus and gastric conduit. It analyses the outcome from a single surgeon working at two co‐located hospitals. Method A retrospective review of prospectively collected data was performed.

Depth and Procedure Specific Effects of Antimicrobial Versus Conventional Sutures on Surgical Site Infection: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
Antimicrobial sutures may be particularly beneficial in colorectal and abdominal procedures, where reductions in deep SSI may offset the additional suture cost. Several studies also reported favorable wound‐healing outcomes. ABSTRACT Background Surgical site infections (SSIs) are common postoperative complications that delay wound healing and increase ...

Heart‐Rate Variability and Its Role in Non‐Cardiac Surgery Perioperative Care: Scoping Review

open access: yesANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Heart rate variability (HRV) is a non‐invasive method of assessing autonomic function. Those with autonomic dysfunction may be at heightened risk of peri‐operative complications due to sympatho‐parasympathetic imbalance. This review summarises the clinical applications of HRV, approaches to how it is measured, and its role in ...
