Long-Term Laryngotracheal Complications After Inhalation Injury: A Scoping Review.

Long-term laryngotracheal complications (LTLC) after inhalation injury (II) are an under-recognized condition in patients with burns. The purpose of this study was to systematically review all available evidence on LTLC after II and identify gaps in knowledge to guide the direction of future research. A scoping review was performed to synthesize all available evidence on LTLC after II, as guided by the question, "What are the LTLC after II, in patients with or without a history of translaryngeal intubation and/or tracheostomy?".

A progressive scholarly acceptance analysis of robot-assisted arthroplasty: a review of the literature and prediction of future research trends.

Robot-assisted arthroplasty (RAA) is increasingly practised in orthopaedic surgery. The aim of this study was to perform a bibliometric analysis of all published primary research into RAA and to apply the Progressive Scholarly Acceptance (PSA) model to evaluate its acceptance as an orthopaedic surgical technique. A literature search was performed that included all peer-reviewed, primary, English language publications on RAA from its introduction in 1992 up to 2019.

Decreasing Posterior Femoral Condyle Offset Improves Intraoperative Correction of Flexion Contracture in Total Knee Arthroplasty.

Multiple intraoperative strategies are described to achieve full extension in total knee arthroplasty, but only a few studies have assessed the effect of the flexion gap on intraoperative improvement in flexion contracture. The aim of this study was to determine whether posterior condylar offset, in isolation, independently affects extension at the time of total knee arthroplasty.Two hundred and seventy-eight patients who underwent total knee arthroplasty for knee osteoarthritis and flexion contracture ≥ 5 degrees between January 2008 and July 2018 were included in this study.

3 Tesla MRI brain scanning under general anaesthesia in a paediatric 3 Tesla-compatible cochlear implant recipient, first reported case: Clinical considerations and implications for future practice.

Objectives: To demonstrate the safety and feasibility of the first reported case of a 3 Tesla MRI scan in a paediatric 3 Tesla-compatible cochlear implant recipient under general anaesthesia.

Materials And Methods: A three-year-old child with bilateral optic pathway glioma treated with chemotherapy, who subsequently received a right sided 3 Tesla-compatible cochlear implant for sensorineural hearing loss was examined. The CI device chosen was implanted due to its purported MRI compatibility.
