Abstract:
Spurred by recent press reports and other concerns this thesis focuses on the quality of surgical instruments. The current situation is reviewed by considering the regulatory framework and by investigating the quality of newly purchased instruments. A range of test protocols based on British Standards and best practices from industry were developed. These were designed to be practical in the real world situation and a user-friendly database was built to collate all the relevant data and inform the Supply Chain. The conditions experienced by instruments during their lifetime in the health care

Background: Opioid-induced respiratory depression (OIRD) is a life-threatening complication of opioid analgesia. Failure to recognize and respond to OIRD may result in respiratory arrest, anoxic brain injury, and death.

Early detection of OIRD facilitates the timely rescue of patients on medical-surgical units where critical patient events are less likely to be witnessed.

Abstract:
Minimally invasive surgery has evolved over the last century to become a gold standard for many surgical procedures. This relates to the reduction in morbidity associated with large incisions. Patients benefit from reduced surgical trauma and post-operative pain, and a more rapid recovery and return to normal activities. This is at the cost of an increased complexity of technical skill required and therefore steep learning curve, especially related to the loss of the stereopsis of binocular vision, which provides our keenest depth perception in dextrous skills.

Abstract:
Associations between patient and procedural factors on the nature and quality of the immediate in-home recovery from anesthesia following ambulatory orthopedic surgery are unknown. Further, there is a paucity of outcomes research quantitatively categorizing in-home patient recovery and safety following discharge from same-day orthopedic procedures. Tools are available, however, to shed light on outcomes in this population, and integration of such available measures is critical. Ambulatory orthopedic surgery is a burgeoning specialty, with growth expected over the foreseeable future. The exp

A gestão do risco clínico e a segurança do doente são componentes essenciais no desenvolvimento de políticas de qualidade nas organizações de saúde. Estas dimensões assumem especial destaque no Bloco Operatório (BO) devido à sua dinâmica complexa, à qual está intrínseco um conjunto de actores com diferentes especificidades e funções, mas com um único objectivo: melhoria contínua da qualidade dos cuidados prestados. Trata-se de um estudo exploratório-descritivo, transversal, de abordagem quantitativa, cujo objectivo é analisar a opinião dos profissionais do BO (enfermeiros, anestesiologistas e

Abstract:
Knowledge of The Joint Commission's National Patient Safety Goals and an effective provider cooperative practice involving communication and teamwork are essential for the delivery of safe and compliant patient care in the surgical setting. The purpose of this study was to assess the impact of an educational intervention for physicians and nurses designed to increase documentation of compliance with national patient safety standards. As events of noncompliance have impacted patient safety at the hospital where this project was conducted, measures were needed to assess barriers to compliance wi

Introdução: Por se tratar de uma falha médica com potencial implicação jurídica, a retenção inadvertida de corpos estranhos continua sendo subnotificada, o que dificulta o seu estudo e a sua compreensão. Como resultado, ainda se enfrenta um problema recorrente. Este estudo explorou a experiência de cirurgiões brasileiros em relação à retenção de corpos estranhos, analisando as suas características e consequências. Métodos: Foi enviado um questionário de preenchimento voluntário, confidencial e anônimo, por correio eletrônico, aos cirurgiões membros de nove sociedades brasileiras, durante um pe

Abstract:
Rapid infusers are used for rapid fluid administration as a part of medical treatment during surgical procedures. The rapid infusers on the market today have proved to present various functional, usability and safety issues for the customers and the problems have not been adequately addressed. This has motivated SLL Innovation to develop a new improved rapid infusion system. The primary reason for considering the development of a rapid infuser device was to meet customer demands and improve safety during the acute situations when the system is to be used.

L’immunothérapie par anti-PD1/PD L1 a bouleversé la prise en charge du cancer bronchique non à petites cellules (CBNPC) depuis 2015, offrant notamment la perspective d’un contrôle prolongé de la maladie métastatique. Néanmoins la majorité des patients ne tire pas de bénéfice de ces traitements. Il est donc indispensable d’identifier des biomarqueurs permettant de mieux Sélectionner les patients pour l’immunothérapie. A partir d’un modèle murin de CBNPC, nous avons établi le rôle du volume tumoral comme facteur prédictif de la réponse à un traitement par anti-PD1. La mesure du volume tumoral mé

La insuficiencia venosa crónica representa un conjunto de síndromes clínicos cuya fisiopatología es la hipertensión venosa. Su elevada prevalencia y costes en términos de discapacidad y absentismo laboral motivaron este estudio para determinar las mejores estrategias de tratamiento quirúrgico. La ablación de las varices a través de accesos percutáneos y particularmente la radiofrecuencia (RFO) representa una técnica mínimamente invasiva, con menor morbilidad postoperatoria, rápida recuperación funcional y mayor satisfacción del paciente en términos de calidad de vida(CV).
