Personalized Healthcare Outcome Analysis of Cardiovascular Surgical Procedures
Manufacturing & Service Operations Management, 2023Problem definition: This study addresses three important questions concerning personalized healthcare: (1) Are outcome differences between hospitals heterogeneous across patients with different features? (2) If they are, how do the best quality hospitals identified using patient-centric information differ from those identified using population-average ...

Atrial fibrillation occurring early after cardiovascular surgery: impact of the surgical procedure
Surgery Today, 2012Postoperative atrial fibrillation/flutter (AF) is still the most common complication after cardiovascular surgery, and it is important to determine the risk factors in order to establish effective management for recent postoperative AF. This study investigated the clinical predictors of postoperative AF using a prospectively collected database.A total ...

Phrenic nerve injury (PNI) with resulting hemidiaphragmatic paralysis occurred in 19 (2.1 +/- 0.5%) of 891 closed cardiac surgical procedures during a twenty-three-year period. Diagnosis was confirmed by standard radiographic criteria. Phrenic nerve injury was most commonly noted following systemic-pulmonary artery anastomosis, ligation of persistent ...

Surgery for Obesity and Related Diseases, 2018
In recent years, bariatric surgery was found to have therapeutic potential for the treatment of type 2 diabetes (T2D) in severely obese patients (body mass index [BMI] ≥35 kg/m2) and to reduce cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk and mortality. However, the benefit of CVD risk reduction after metabolic surgery in nonseverely obese T2D patients (BMI

Obesity Surgery, 2019
Several reports highlight bariatric surgery as an efficient and long-lasting strategy for weight loss. Herein, we aimed to evaluate the impact of bariatric surgery on 10-year cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk and to compare the effectiveness of different surgical procedures, employing the Framingham Risk Score (FRS).Retrospective longitudinal ...

Many pediatric cardiac surgery centers obtain mediastinal cultures at the time of delayed sternal closure (DSC). There are no recommendations regarding how to treat patients with positive cultures. We explored the clinical significance of positive mediastinal cultures with regard to surgical site infections (SSI).A retrospective study was performed on ...
