Bystander cricothyroidotomy with household devices - A fresh cadaveric feasibility study.
INTRODUCTION In various motion pictures, medical TV shows and internet chatrooms, non-medical devices were presented as tools for life-saving cricothyroidotomies. However, there is uncertainty about whether it is possible for a bystander to perform a cricothyroidotomy and maintain gas exchange using improvised household items. This study examines the ability of bystanders to carry out an emerge...
متن کاملA cadaveric study of surgical landmarks for retrograde parotidectomy
PURPOSE Retrograde parotidectomy is employed in situations where tumors or scar tissue obscure the facial nerve trunk, making anterograde parotidectomy hazardous. Hence, the reliability of anatomical landmarks in retrograde parotidectomy is of equal practical importance. METHODS Distances from soft tissue and osseous landmarks to the corresponding peripheral branches of the facial nerve were ...
متن کاملAn analytical model based on simulation aiming to improve patient flow in a hospital surgical suite
Surgical suits allocate a large amount of expenses to hospitals; on the other hand, they constitute a huge part of hospital revenues. Patient flow optimization in a surgical suite by omitting or reducing bottlenecks which cause loss of time is one of the key solutions in minimizing the patients’ length of stay[1] (LOS) in the system, lowering the expenses, increasing efficiency, and also enhanc...
متن کاملGastrocnemius recession: A cadaveric study of surgical safety and effectiveness
Background and purpose - Many methods of gastrocnemius lengthening have been described, with different surgical challenges, outcomes, and risks to the sural nerve. Our aims were (1) to locate the gastrocnemius muscular-tendinous junction in relation to the mid-length of the fibula (from here on designated the mid-fibula), (2) to compare the dorsiflexion achieved with dorsal recession or ventral...
متن کاملQuality of life comparison in common rhinologic surgeries
Various questionnaires are used in patients who undergo rhinologic surgeries but a unique comprehensive questionnaire is needed to evaluate quality of life (QOL) in rhinologic surgeries. The purpose of this study was to prepare a comprehensive questionnaire and compare QOL among four common rhinologic surgeries including functional endoscopic sinus surgery, septoplasty, septorhinoplasty, and se...
