Purpose: This study aims to evaluate the burden of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infections in patients with haematological diseases. It seeks to analyse the relevance of prevention, diagnosis and treatment of RSV infections.
Methods: A multi-centre, retrospective study was conducted across University Hospitals in Cologne, Düsseldorf, Bonn, and the University Medical Centre Hamburg-Eppendorf between Jan 2016 and Aug 2023.
Background: The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) maintains the Manufacturer and User Facility Device Experience (MAUDE) database for reporting adverse events associated with medical devices, including emerging technologies, such as robotic-assisted total hip arthroplasty (THA). Aim of this study was to evaluate the variation of adverse events associated with robotics in THA.
Methods: Medical device reports (MDRs) within the MAUDE database were identified between 2017 and 2021.
Article Synopsis
- This study investigates the postoperative outcomes of patients with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) undergoing total hip arthroplasty (THA) compared to those without PTSD (NPTSD).
- It shows that PTSD patients had a higher rate of emergency department visits within 14 days and 1 month post-surgery, and they also received more prescriptions, particularly opioids, although the number of opioid prescriptions was similar between both groups.
- Despite the differences in health care utilization and complications within the first month, the rates of revision hip arthroplasty within 2 years were comparable between PTSD and NPTSD patients.
Purpose: To compare adverse events, postoperative opioid-prescribing patterns, health care use, and secondary anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) surgery rates of patients undergoing primary ACLR with a preoperative antidepressant prescription (ADP) against a propensity-matched group with no preoperative antidepressant prescription (NADP) using the TriNetX Diamond Network.
Methods: Patients undergoing primary ACLR between ages 18 and 35 years of age were queried from the database using International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision/Current Procedural Terminology codes. Patients with an ADP were propensity matched in a 1:1 ratio to patients with NADP based on 11 patient characteristics.
