Framework for developing a national surgical, obstetric and anaesthesia plan

BJS Open, Volume 3, Issue 5, Page 722-732, October 2019., 2019
This article describes a possible skeleton process for developing a national surgical, obstetric and anaesthesia plan (NSOAP) from the authors' experiences of developing some of the world's first NSOAPs in low‐ and middle‐income countries. It discusses the specific challenges encountered and highlights lessons learned from navigating this process ...

Quantitative Analysis of the Corneal Collagen Distribution after In Vivo Cross‐Linking with Second Harmonic Microscopy

BioMed Research International, Volume 2019, Issue 1, 2019., 2019
Corneal cross‐linking (CXL) is a surgical procedure able to modify corneal biomechanics and stabilize keratoconus progression. Although it is known that CXL produces changes in corneal collagen distribution, these are still a topic of discussion. Here we quantitatively compare the corneal stroma architecture between two animal models four weeks after ...

Nodular Epithelial Hyperplasia after Photorefractive Keratectomy Followed by Corneal Collagen Cross‐Linking

Case Reports in Ophthalmological Medicine, Volume 2013, Issue 1, 2013., 2013
This study describes a case of nodular epithelial hyperplasia and stromal alterations in a patient with keratoconus who was submitted to topography‐guided photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) followed by corneal collagen cross‐linking. Debridement of the epithelial nodule was performed. After a 2‐year followup, a new topography‐guided PRK was indicated.
