Same-day discharge for pediatric Nuss procedure; an analysis of the NSQIP-pediatric database from 2017-2022.

Purpose: Limited data exists evaluating same-day discharge for pediatric Nuss procedure; most being single-center studies. Our analysis, using the NSQIP-P registry, aimed to assess if same-day discharge for the Nuss procedure influenced post-operative outcomes.

Methods: The NSQIP-P database (2017-2022) identified patients who underwent the Nuss procedure.

Trends and outcomes in pediatric laparoscopic appendectomy: a NSQIP-P analysis of same-day discharge and readmission rates.

Purpose: Practice patterns of same-day discharge for pediatric laparoscopic appendectomy for non-perforated appendicitis are not well-analyzed. Our aim is to evaluate current practice patterns and outcomes of same-day discharge for these patients.

Methods: NSQIP-P retrospective registry identified patients (2017-2021) who underwent laparoscopic appendectomy for non-perforated appendicitis.

Oxytocin Analogues for the Oral Treatment of Abdominal Pain.

Abdominal pain presents an onerous reality for millions of people affected by gastrointestinal disorders such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). The oxytocin receptor (OTR) has emerged as a new analgesic drug target with OTR expression upregulated on colon-innervating nociceptors in chronic visceral hypersensitivity states, accessible via luminal delivery. However, the low gastrointestinal stability of OTR's endogenous peptide ligand oxytocin (OT) is a bottleneck for therapeutic development.

Operative Timing for Elective Thoracoscopic Lobectomy for CPAM and Sequestration: A NSQIP-Pediatric Analysis 2017-2021.

Background: There is limited literature on optimal timing for elective thoracoscopic lobectomy for congenital pulmonary airway malformations (CPAM) and sequestration. Using NSQIP-P, we aim to assess optimal operative timing for elective thoracoscopic lobectomy for CPAM and sequestration.

Methods: Data from the NSQIP-Pediatric registry was used to evaluate elective thoracoscopic lobectomy patients from 2017 to 2021 diagnosed with congenital pulmonary airway malformation or sequestration.

Same-Day Discharge for Elective Pediatric Laparoscopic Gastrostomy Tube Insertion is Safe and Increasing in Frequency; A NSQIP Pediatric Retrospective Review 2017 to 2021.

Background: There is limited literature reviewing same-day discharge for elective pediatric gastrostomy tube placement. Our aim was to assess the outcomes and national trends of same-day discharge following elective pediatric laparoscopic gastrostomy.

Methods: ACS NSQIP-P registry data from 2017 to 2021 was used to evaluate elective pediatric laparoscopic gastrostomy patients who presented from home and discharged home with a diagnosis of failure to thrive, feeding difficulty or dysphagia.
