UnknownTherapeutic Anticoagulation with Heparin in Noncritically Ill Patients with Covid-19.

Background

Thrombosis and inflammation may contribute to the risk of death and complications among patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19). We hypothesized that therapeutic-dose anticoagulation may improve outcomes in noncritically ill patients who are hospitalized with Covid-19.

UnknownA prognostic model for use before elective surgery to estimate the risk of postoperative pulmonary complications (GSU-Pulmonary Score): a development and validation study in three international cohorts.

Background

Pulmonary complications are the most common cause of death after surgery. This study aimed to derive and externally validate a novel prognostic model that can be used before elective surgery to estimate the risk of postoperative pulmonary complications and to support resource allo...

UnknownReducing the environmental impact of surgery on a global scale: systematic review and co-prioritization with healthcare workers in 132 countries.

Background

Healthcare cannot achieve net-zero carbon without addressing operating theatres. The aim of this study was to prioritize feasible interventions to reduce the environmental impact of operating theatres.

Methods

This study adopted a four-phase Delphi consensus co-prioritizati...

UnknownChallenges of one-year longitudinal follow-up of a prospective, observational cohort study using an anonymised database: recommendations for trainee research collaboratives.

Background

Trainee research collaboratives (TRCs) have pioneered high quality, prospective 'snap-shot' surgical cohort studies in the UK. Outcomes After Kidney injury in Surgery (OAKS) was the first TRC cohort study to attempt to collect one-year follow-up data. The aims of this study were t...

UnknownPancreatic surgery outcomes: multicentre prospective snapshot study in 67 countries.

Background

Pancreatic surgery remains associated with high morbidity rates. Although postoperative mortality appears to have improved with specialization, the outcomes reported in the literature reflect the activity of highly specialized centres. The aim of this study was to evaluate the out...

UnknownGlobal overview of the management of acute cholecystitis during the COVID-19 pandemic (CHOLECOVID study).

Background

This study provides a global overview of the management of patients with acute cholecystitis during the initial phase of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Methods

CHOLECOVID is an international, multicentre, observational comparative study of patients admitted to hospital with acute c...

UnknownMulticentre prospective cohort study of body mass index and postoperative complications following gastrointestinal surgery.

Background

There is currently conflicting evidence surrounding the effects of obesity on postoperative outcomes. Previous studies have found obesity to be associated with adverse events, but others have found no association. The aim of this study was to determine whether increasing body mass...

UnknownTiming of surgery following SARS-CoV-2 infection: an international prospective cohort study.
Peri-operative SARS-CoV-2 infection increases postoperative mortality. The aim of this study was to determine the optimal duration of planned delay before surgery in patients who have had SARS-CoV-2 infection. This international, multicentre, prospective cohort study included patients undergoing ele...
