Pediatric Preanesthesia Assessment Electronic Triage Tool: Implementation, Quality Improvement, and Retrospective Observational Evaluation of a Patient‐Administered Questionnaire

open access: yesPediatric Anesthesia, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Preanesthesia assessment is essential but resource‐intensive. Electronic health records (EHRs) are widespread, yet pediatric perioperative screening remains variable. Objective To develop and implement a preanesthesia triage tool based on patient‐administered electronic triage questionnaire (PAC‐Q) integrated with the Epic EHR to ...

MRI in Sheep Model for Myelomeningocele Repair Using a Novel Polymer and Other Dural Patches

open access: yesPrenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To compare postnatal MRI outcomes after prenatal myelomeningocele repair using three different dural substitutes. Method 32 sheep fetuses were included, with 34.3%(11/32) serving as healthy controls and the remaining undergoing prenatal spinal lumbar defect creation to recreate a myelomeningocele in the fetus.

No increased risk of spinal cerebrospinal fluid leak after spinal manipulative therapy: A retrospective cohort study

open access: yesPM&R, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Spinal cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leaks, a rare but debilitating condition, have been described following spinal manipulative therapy (SMT) in case reports. However, the nature of the potential association between SMT and CSF leak is uncertain, and symptoms such as neck pain or headache may reflect preexisting leaks rather than ...

Nonthermal plasma approaches for combating implant‐associated infections: A compendious review

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
Implant‐associated infections pose serious clinical challenges. Non‐thermal plasma (NTP) modifications overcome this bottleneck in distinct ways relative to traditional sterilization methods. Gas‐phase plasmas generate highly energetic species, UV radiation and reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (RONS), which alter the implant surface properties.
