Implementation of a Standardized Handoff System for a General Surgery Residency Program [PDF]
, 2017 Introduction: The I-PASS Handoff Bundle is an evidence based standardized set of educational materials designed to decrease handoff failures in patient care. Two of every three sentinel events , the most serious events reported to the Joint Commission,

Applications of controlled surgery in dimension 4: Examples
, 2006 The validity of Freedman's disk theorem is known to depend only on the fundamental group. It was conjectured that it fails for nonabelian free fundamental groups. If this were true then surgery theory would work in dimension four.

Use of National Burden to Define Operative Emergency General Surgery.
JAMA Surgery, 2016 IMPORTANCE Emergency general surgery (EGS) represents 11% of surgical admissions and 50% of surgical mortality in the United States. However, there is currently no established definition of the EGS procedures.

Perturbative 3-manifold invariants by cut-and-paste topology [PDF]
arXiv, 1999 We give a purely topological definition of the perturbative quantum invariants of links and 3-manifolds associated with Chern-Simons field theory. Our definition is as close as possible to one given by Kontsevich. We will also establish some basic properties of these invariants, in particular that they are universally finite type with respect to ...

Borromean surgery formula for the Casson invariant [PDF]
Alg. Geom. Topol. 8 (2008), 787-801, 2005 It is known that every oriented integral homology 3-sphere can be obtained from S^3 by a finite sequence of Borromean surgeries. We give an explicit formula for the variation of the Casson invariant under such a surgery move. The formula involves simple classical invariants, namely the framing, linking number and Milnor's triple linking number.

Heegaard Floer homology and Morse surgery [PDF]
arXiv, 2006 We establish surgery formulas for filtration of the Heegaard Floer homology associated with p/q surgery on a null-homologous knot K in a three-manifold Y, induced by K_{p/q}. Here K_{p/q} is the core of the attached solid torus (which produces the surgery). This would generalize a result of Ozsvath and Szabo.

Roscoe Reid Graham (1890 to 1948): a Canadian pioneer in general surgery. [PDF]
, 2014 Roscoe Reid Graham, a Canadian surgeon trained at the University of Toronto, was a true pioneer in the field of general surgery. Although he may be best known for his omental patch repair of perforated duodenal ulcers-often referred to as the Graham ...
