surgical risk calculatorRisk assessment is difficult yet would provide valuable data for both the surgeons and the patients in major hepatobiliary surgeries. An ideal risk calculator should improve workflow through efficient, timely, and accurate risk stratification. The American College of Surgeons ...

Despite advances in treatment approaches such as surgical resection combined with chemotherapy and radiation therapy, challenges persist due to treatment resistance and tumor recurrence [6, 7]. Notably, more than half of LGG patients eventually progress to highly aggressive gliomas [8], underscoring ...
3,6 Given that, the accurate selection of the patients and a thorough preoperative assessment of morbidity and mortality risk are mandatory. The American College of Surgeons (ACS) developed the National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (NSQIP) online surgical risk calculator (SRC) with this ...
The pediatric NSQIP program is in the early stages of facilitated surgical quality improvement for children. The objective of this study is to describe the initial experience of the first Canadian Children’s Hospital participant in this program. Method Randomly sampled surgical cases from the “inc...
ventricular unloading is best achieved by surgical implantation of a temporary rotary or volume-displacement pump. After cardiopulmonary resuscitation, hemodynamic stabilization allows assessment of cerebral injury and prognosis. Published series demonstrate that 50–75% of patients with profound shock can be...
preferred site for vascular access, and, although a majority of surgical patients are dialysed without anticoagulation, citrate is associated with less side effects and improved clearance parameters compared to heparin. There does not appear to be a benefit to increase the dose of continuous therapies...
