Effect of Enhanced Patient Education on Patient Satisfaction and 30-Day Readmission Rates after Cardiac Arrhythmia Ablation

, 2016
Patient satisfaction and 30-day hospital readmission rates are metrics used to assess quality of patient care. Dissatisfied patients pose a high risk of readmission (Boulding, Glickman, Manary, Schulman, Staelin, 2011) and during the vulnerable discharge

Raising the bar: Utilizing quality improvement tools to increase compliance with clinical care guidelines in inflammatory bowel disease patients

JPGN Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Patients admitted for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are often managed by rotating teams of care providers during their hospital stay. This can lead to potential variability in the care they receive. Our team developed a scoring system of six key high‐quality care components called the standardized IBD care index (SICI) to standardize care ...

Elective Surgical Care Pathways Are Associated With Lower Fracture Rates at Presentation and Contribute to Superior Clinical Outcomes in Metastatic Bone Disease

Journal of Surgical Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Metastatic bone disease (MBD) often necessitates orthopaedic surgical intervention, which occurs through either emergent or elective care pathways. This study compared post‐operative outcomes between patients undergoing elective versus emergent surgery for MBD involving the pelvis and appendicular skeleton. Methods We

An Interactive Preoperative Virtual Reality Intervention for Breast Cancer Patients Undergoing Oncological Surgery: A Feasibility and Pilot Randomized Clinical Trial

Journal of Surgical Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Preoperative anxiety is common before surgery and is associated with adverse outcomes, yet access to mental health support remains limited. We evaluated the feasibility and acceptability of a novel preoperative virtual reality (VR) prototype designed to reduce anxiety in patients undergoing cancer surgery.

Hospital Volume and Post‐Hepatectomy Liver Failure After Major Hepatectomy

Journal of Surgical Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Post‐hepatectomy liver failure (PHLF) following major hepatectomy (MH) increases the risk of morbidity and death. The relationship between institutional MH volume, PHLF, and outcomes is not well characterized. Methods Adults undergoing MH from 2014 to 2021 in the ACS NSQIP hepatectomy‐targeted database were included.

Level of Vascular Ligation for Sigmoid Colon Cancer: Does It Matter? The Pina Low‐T Study

Journal of Surgical Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Methods In sigmoid colon cancer surgery, the inferior mesenteric artery (IMA) can be ligated at its origin (high ligation, HLG) or distal to the left colic artery bifurcation (low ligation, LLG). While high ligation facilitates lymph node harvest and mobilization, it may compromise colonic perfusion and increase nerve injury ...
