Quantitative futility is an appraisal of the risk of failure of a treatment. For those who do not survive, a laparotomy has provided negligible therapeutic benefit and may represent a missed opportuni...
A two-stage methodology was used; stage one defined a timeframe for futility using an online survey and steering group discussion; stage two applied this definition to patients enrolled in NELA Decemb...
Quantitative futility occurred in 4% of patients (7442/180,987). Median age was 74 years (range 65-81 years). Median NELA risk score was 32.4% vs. 3.8% in the surviving cohort (p < 0.001). Early morta...
Quantitative futility after emergency laparotomy is associated with quantifiable risk factors available to decision-makers preoperatively. These findings should be incorporated qualitatively by the mu...
Trauma is one of the leading causes for years of life lost in New Zealand. Its costs to acute care services alone amount to hundreds of millions per year, and it is the main contributor to years of li...
A retrospective study of trauma patient from June 2016 to February 2019. Data for major trauma patients were supplied from the Canterbury Trauma Registry. Data for minor trauma patients were individua...
Sixty trauma laparotomies were performed over 36 months, predominantly male gender (43/60) and under 40 years of age (39/60). Motor vehicle accident (31/60) and knife injuries (10/60) were the most co...
There is no statistically significant difference in time to operation between trauma laparotomy patients with no MI on pre-operative CT to patients with MI on pre-operative CT. There are recognisable ...
The prevalence of uterine fibroids is estimated to be approximately 80%. Fibroids can be associated with abnormal uterine bleeding, pressure symptoms, and infertility. Given this high prevalence, appr...
To discuss the multiple techniques for optimizing the use of mini-laparotomy in minimally invasive myomectomy....
We use intraoperative surgical video to demonstrate techniques that optimize the use of the mini-laparotomy for myomectomy....

Patient's undergoing fertility preserving, minimally invasive myomectomy at the Cleveland Clinic. The patient(s) included in this video gave consent for publication of the video and posting of the vid...
After the surgeon has selected to proceed with mini-laparotomy myomectomy, different techniques can be employed to optimize management. We demonstrate and discuss these techniques to ensure that surge...
In this video, we perform a mini-laparotomy myomectomy optimally and describe the techniques employed....
Specific techniques employed in mini-laparotomy myomectomy make the case safe, effective, and can lead to same-day discharge....
Mini-laparotomy myomectomy is a technique used to perform minimally invasive myomectomy. Following the discussed steps, surgeons can be more confident in performing this method of myomectomy....
During laparotomy, patients requiring intestinal resection may be temporarily left in gastrointestinal discontinuity (GID). We performed this study to determine predictors of futility for patients ini...
Laparotomy incisions provide easy and rapid access to the peritoneal cavity in case of emergency surgery. Incisional hernia (IH) is a late manifestation of the failure of abdominal wall closure and re...
Laparoscopic appendectomy is the gold standard surgical procedure currently performed for acute appendicitis. The conversion rate is one of the main factors used to measure laparoscopic competence, be...
To identify the main preoperative parameters associated with a higher risk of conversion in order to determine the surgical method indicated for each patient....
Retrospective study of patients admitted with acute appendicitis who underwent laparoscopic appendectomy. A total of 725 patients were included, of which 121 (16.7%) were converted to laparotomy....
The significant factors that predicted conversion, identified by univariate and multivariate analysis, were: the presence of comorbidities (OR 3.1; 95%CI; p<0.029), appendicular perforation (OR 5.1; 95...
Laparoscopic appendectomy is a safe procedure to treat acute appendicitis. It is a minimally invasive surgery and has many advantages. Preoperatively, it is possible to identify predictive factors for...
Emergency laparotomies are associated with higher mortality and longer hospital stays than elective laparotomies. The purpose of this study was to survey patient characteristics, hospital care pathway...
This is a retrospective cohort study of all patients over 18 years of age who underwent emergency laparotomy at St Olav's Hospital, Trondheim, between 1 January 2015 and 1 April 2020. Patients were se...
A total of 939 patients with a median (interquartile range) age of 68 years (54-76) were included. Intestinal obstruction was the primary indication for surgery in 488 (52.0 %) patients, followed by p...
Although caution should be exercised when comparing findings between studies, our results suggest that the quality of treatment at St Olav's Hospital, Trondheim, is on a par with that at similar insti...
Operating rooms contribute to over 40% of hospital expenses, with a portion attributed to waste from single-use, sterile surgical supplies (SUSSS). This research aimed to determine the amount of cost ...
A descriptive-analytical investigation was conducted in two prominent teaching hospitals in Mashhad, Iran 2018. Seventy-seven laparotomy surgeries were scrutinized, documenting both used and unused di...
The study revealed that during surgery in the operating rooms, waste of SUSSS averaged 5.9%. Betadine solution and sterile Gauze types were the top two contributors to resource wastage. Sterile Gauze ...
Inadequate management of available and commonly used disposable supplies leads to increased hospital expenses. Enhancing the surgical team's knowledge of sterile surgical supplies usage and making tho...
Currently, damage control surgery (DCS) employing multiple-staged laparotomy (MSL) is a standard hemostatic approach for treating trauma patients with unstable hemodynamics attributable to massive hem...
This retrospective, single-center, observational study evaluated outcomes of hemodynamically unstable patients with traumatic massive hemoperitoneum requiring surgical intervention between 2005 and 20...
A total of 170 patients met the inclusion criteria; 141 patients underwent SSL, and 29 underwent MSL. In the propensity-matched analysis with 27 pairs, the SSL group had significantly lower in-hospita...
Single-staged laparotomy may be an effective surgical treatment for the traumatic massive hemoperitoneum cases with hemodynamic instability, if conducted following sufficient damage control resuscitat...
There is a lack of large-scale data on outcomes of cirrhotic patients undergoing trauma laparotomy. We aimed to compare outcomes of cirrhotic versus noncirrhotic trauma patients undergoing laparotomy....
We analyzed 2018 American College of Surgeons Trauma Quality Improvement Program. We included blunt trauma patients (≥18 y) who underwent a laparotomy. Patients who were transferred, dead on arrival, ...
Four hundred and seventy-one patients (cirrhotic, 157; noncirrhotic, 314) were matched. Mean age was 57 ± 15 y, 78% were male, and median injury severity score was 24. Cirrhotic patients had higher ra...
