Predictive Factors of Health Discharge Outcomes for Colorectal Cancer Patients in a Romanian Hospital

2020

Abstract In-hospital data on colorectal cancer from Romania demonstrate differences from other European countries, especially in the mean age of patients, discharge rates and length of stay. Our study aimed to investigate possible factors that could predict the health outcomes at the discharge of colorectal cancer patients hospitalized in a Romanian county hospital. We retrospectively analysed 9009 colorectal cancer patients from a Romanian County Hospital. The model of binary logistic regression, a stationary or aggravated discharge disposition was associated with patients with age equal or higher than 60 years (p=0.002), the nonretirement status of patients (p=0.004), discharge from a sur…

Lebermetastasen kolorektaler Karzinome - wie oft kann man operieren?

2007

Recurrent liver metastases of colorectal carcinoma are frequent. The repeat hepatectomy is superior to other therapeutic options. In about 20 % of patients with recurrent liver metastases a complete resection (R 0) is possible. The morbidity of repeat hepatectomy is similar to that of first hepatectomy. The 5-year survival rate after repeat hepatectomy ranges between 30 and 40 %. Often in the follow-up additional operations become necessary for extrahepatic recurrencies. For determination of the optimal therapy an interdisciplinary approach must be chosen.

Passagere Kolostomieanlagen nach Eingriffen am Colon Sigmoideum und Rektum—Sind Sie Noch Gerechtfertigt?

1997

Abstract Primary anastomosis is increasingly favored even in emergency colorectal surgery. Two-stage procedures are frequently considered obsolete. The aim of this study is to define conditions when a two-staged operative strategy with a temporary colostomy is still appropriate. We analyzed a series of 126 patients who were treated by a colostomy following resection and subsequent closure of the colostomy. In 44 cases the primary operation was a Hartmann resection, in 39 cases a resection with colostomy and mucous fistula and in 43 cases a resection with primary anastomosis and proximal loop colostomy. Complications of diverticular or neoplastic disease were generally managed by resection w…

Supplemental Perioperative Oxygen and the Risk of Surgical Wound Infection<SUBTITLE>A Randomized Controlled Trial</SUBTITLE>

2005

ContextSupplemental perioperative oxygen has been variously reported to halve or double the risk of surgical wound infection.ObjectiveTo test the hypothesis that supplemental oxygen reduces infection risk in patients following colorectal surgery.Design, Setting, and PatientsA double-blind, randomized controlled trial of 300 patients aged 18 to 80 years who underwent elective colorectal surgery in 14 Spanish hospitals from March 1, 2003, to October 31, 2004. Wound infections were diagnosed by blinded investigators using Centers for Disease Control and Prevention criteria. Baseline patient characteristics, anesthetic treatment, and potential confounding factors were recorded.InterventionsPati…

Fit-for-Discharge Criteria after Esophagectomy: An International Expert Delphi Consensus

2021

Summary There are no internationally recognized criteria available to determine preparedness for hospital discharge after esophagectomy. This study aims to achieve international consensus using Delphi methodology. The expert panel consisted of 40 esophageal surgeons spanning 16 countries and 4 continents. During a 3-round, web-based Delphi process, experts voted for discharge criteria using 5-point Likert scales. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics. Consensus was reached if agreement was ≥75% in round 3. Consensus was achieved for the following basic criteria: nutritional requirements are met by oral intake of at least liquids with optional supplementary nutrition via jejunal fe…

The cost of adverse event management in patients with RAS wild-type metastatic colorectal cancer treated with first-line cetuximab and panitumumab: A…

2019

Abstract Background In Italy, previously untreated patients with RAS wild-type metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) may receive an epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) inhibitor with a chemotherapy regimen (CT). The choice of anti-EGFR, either cetuximab (cet+CT) or panitumumab (pan+CT), depends on various factors, including adverse event (AE) profiles. Although AE profiles will evolve with increasing use and familiarity, the differences in AE profiles can be explored using literature and safety data from the summary of product characteristics (SmPC). The financial impact of these differences on the Italian National Health Service has yet to be estimated. Methods We developed a model to es…

Recognition and characterization of small colonic neoplasia with high-definition colonoscopy using i-Scan is as precise as chromoendoscopy

2010

Abstract Background The EPKi system (Pentax, Japan) enables resolution above HDTV. Aim of the study was to test the efficacy of HD+ alone and with the new post-processing digital filter i-Scan or chromoendoscopy (Methylene blue 0.1%) in screening for colorectal cancer. We focused on lesions less than 5 mm as a surrogate marker for the optical possibilities of the EPKi system. Methods The last 30 cm of the colon in a screening population were inspected with HD+ alone, in combination with i-Scan (2:1 randomisation) and subsequently with chromoendoscopy. All lesions were characterized and targeted biopsies were performed. Results i-Scan augmented in 69 patients the identification of lesions fr…
