Qualitative study of clinician and patient perspectives on the mode of anaesthesia for emergency surgery

open access: yesBJS (British Journal of Surgery), Volume 107, Issue 2, Page e142-e150, January 2020., 2020
Although delivering a chosen mode of anaesthesia for certain emergency surgery procedures is potentially beneficial to patients, it is a complex intervention to evaluate. Seventy‐nine interviews with clinicians and patients were analysed thematically to explore experiences of anaesthesia in emergency surgery.

Effects of fentanyl on intraocular pressure and pupil size in medetomidine‐methadone premedicated dogs: a pilot study

open access: yesVeterinary Record Open, Volume 7, Issue 1, 2020., 2020
Background This is a pilot study to evaluate the effects of fentanyl on intraocular pressure (IOP) and pupil size (PS) in dogs premedicated with medetomidine and methadone. Methods Sixteen dogs with a median (first quartile–third quartile) age of 3.5 (1.25–6) years and a mean (sd) weight of 18.6 (9.2) kg were included.

Effect of preoperative oral antibiotics in combination with mechanical bowel preparation on inflammatory response and short‐term outcomes following left‐sided colonic and rectal resections

open access: yesBJS Open, Volume 3, Issue 6, Page 830-839, December 2019., 2019
This single‐centre propensity‐matched cohort study compared postoperative outcomes in patients undergoing left‐sided colonic or rectal resection with or without preoperative oral antibiotics and mechanical bowel preparation. In 204 matched patients, the addition of oral antibiotics and mechanical bowel preparation was associated with a significant ...

Framework for developing a national surgical, obstetric and anaesthesia plan

open access: yesBJS 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

open access: yesBioMed 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

open access: yesCase 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.
