REACT: Rapid Evaluation Assessment of Clinical Reasoning Tool.

Introduction: Clinical reasoning encompasses the process of data collection, synthesis, and interpretation to generate a working diagnosis and make management decisions. Situated cognition theory suggests that knowledge is relative to contextual factors, and clinical reasoning in urgent situations is framed by pressure of consequential, time-sensitive decision-making for diagnosis and management. These unique aspects of urgent clinical care may limit the effectiveness of traditional tools to assess, teach, and remediate clinical reasoning.

Augmentation Mastopexy with Surgical Excision of the Lower Pole to Avoid Waterfall Deformity: A Surgical Technique and Nipple Areolar Complex Case Series.

Purpose of this article is to demonstrate a way of avoiding the waterfall deformity in augmentation mastopexy patients. We will show a case series of results and explain how this technique gives satisfying aesthetic results for patients seeking breast augmentation who also require mastopexy. We will show how addressing the breast parenchyma on the lower pole via direct excision can give reliable results and avoids the waterfall deformity.

Locally administered ketorolac and bupivacaine for control of postoperative pain in breast augmentation patients: part II. 10-day follow-up.

Background: Previously, it was shown that locally applied intraoperative ketorolac and bupivacaine significantly reduced pain in the recovery room. The objective of this study was to test the effectiveness of the same solution over the first 10 days.

Methods: This study was a prospective, randomized, double-blind clinical trial with ethical approval.

Locally administered ketorolac and bupivacaine for control of postoperative pain in breast augmentation patients.

With recent developments in the field of analgesia, the question arises whether there is a role for placing local anesthetics, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, or both into the breast implant pocket. The objective of this study was to test the effectiveness of locally administered intraoperative ketorolac and bupivacaine with epinephrine at reducing pain in the postoperative period. The study was a prospective, randomized, double-blind clinical trial.
