Effects of an increase in emergency cases with difficulties in transport to hospital during the COVID‐19 pandemic on postoperative short‐term outcomes of colorectal perforation: A study based on the National Clinical Database

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
In 2022, emergency cases with difficulties in transport markedly increased during the COVID‐19 pandemic, but had little effect on short‐term outcomes of colorectal perforation. These data suggest that the emergency system for patients with colorectal perforation was largely maintained during the pandemic in Japan, with no evidence indicating a serious ...

Guidelines for Perioperative Care [PDF]

World Journal of Surgery, 2013
In this issue of World Journal of Surgery, three new guidelines on perioperative care are published: for colonic resections, rectal/pelvic surgery, and pancreatoduodenectomy. These guidelines are produced as a joint effort from and on behalf of the International Association for Surgical Nutrition and Metabolism, one of the ISS societies, the Enhanced ...

Possibility of incorrect evaluation of intraoperative blood loss during open and laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This study showed that estimated BL (e‐BL) was significantly greater than intraoperative BL(i‐BL) in cases of laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy (LDP), and that e‐BL was significantly less than i‐BL in cases of open DP (ODP), only among patients with pancreatic cancer.

Preoperative sarcopenia negatively impacts short‐ and long‐term outcomes of rectal cancer: A propensity score‐matched analysis

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This study examined the effects of skeletal muscle mass on the short‐ and long‐term outcomes of rectal cancer. This study revealed that preoperative sarcopenia was associated with more total postoperative complications, more anastomotic leakage, and worse survival in rectal cancer patients.

Perioperative palliative care is essential

International Journal of Palliative Nursing, 2020
Access to palliative care is recognised internationally as a basic human right. Ensuring adequate clinical knowledge and communication skills to achieve this outside of specialist palliative care settings is therefore essential.

A Discrete Event Simulation Model for Coordinating Inventory Management and Material Handling in Hospitals [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
For operating rooms (ORs) and hospitals, inventory management of surgical instruments and material handling decisions of perioperative services are critical to hospitals' service levels and costs. However, efficiently integrating these decisions is challenging due to hospitals' interdependence and the uncertainties they face. These challenges motivated

Novel body component score predicts long‐term survival in patients with stage I–III colorectal cancer following radical resection

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
The body component score (BCS) consists of three key elements: skeletal muscle, bodily fat, and ectopic fat. BCS can comprehensively represent the states of body composition and predict the long‐term survival of resectable colorectal cancer following radical resection.

The diagnosis, classification, and treatment of sarcoma in this era of artificial intelligence and immunotherapy

Cancer Communications, Volume 42, Issue 12, Page 1288-1313, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Soft‐tissue sarcomas (STS) represent a group of rare and heterogeneous tumors associated with several challenges, including incorrect or late diagnosis, the lack of clinical expertise, and limited therapeutic options. Digital pathology and radiomics represent transformative technologies that appear promising for improving the accuracy of ...

Hand-drawn Symbol Recognition of Surgical Flowsheet Graphs with Deep Image Segmentation [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
Perioperative data are essential to investigating the causes of adverse surgical outcomes. In some low to middle income countries, these data are computationally inaccessible due to a lack of digitization of surgical flowsheets. In this paper, we present a deep image segmentation approach using a U-Net architecture that can detect hand-drawn symbols on
