Patterns and predictors of postoperative complications and recurrence after ileocecal resection for Crohn's disease: a national multicenter longitudinal study.

Background: Crohn's disease (CD) negatively impacts quality of life, and a high percentage of patients will need surgery. Ileocecal resection (ICR) is the most common abdominal procedure performed in CD. Postoperative complications are frequent, and recurrence is common.

A calculator for musculoskeletal injuries prediction in surgeons: a machine learning approach.

Background: Surgical specialists experience significant musculoskeletal strain as a consequence of their profession, a domain within the healthcare system often recognized for the pronounced impact of such issues. The aim of this study is to calculate the risk of presenting musculoskeletal injuries in surgeons after surgical practice.

Methods: Cross-sectional study carried out using an online form (12/2021-03/2022) aimed at members of the Spanish Association of Surgeons.

Surgery for inflammatory bowel disease in Spain: How are we doing? Initial results of a nationwide prospective registry.

Introduction: Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), which includes Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), requires a multidisciplinary approach, and surgery is commonly needed. The aim of this study was to evaluate the types of surgery performed in these patients in a nationwide study by hospital type, global postoperative complications, and quality of life after surgery.

Methods: A prospective, multicenter, national observational study was designed to collect the results of surgical treatment of IBD in Spain.

Negative pressure therapy as a safe alternative in the treatment of massive subcutaneous emphysema in critically ill patients COVID-19.

Many surgical treatments have been described for massive subcutaneous emphysema (MSE) over the recent years. However, there is no consensus on which is the most recommended and there is great diversity in treatment. With new advances in minimally invasive therapy performed at the bedside, especially in intensive care units, it has been possible to increase therapeutic efficacy.

Assessment of Body Composition as an Indicator of Early Peripheral Parenteral Nutrition Therapy in Patients Undergoing Colorectal Cancer Surgery in an Enhanced Recovery Program.

Background: A poor body composition (BC) has been identified as a risk factor for patients with colorectal cancer (CRC). This study was performed to assess the effect of early peripheral parenteral nutrition (PPN) on BC in patients undergoing CCR surgery within an enhanced recovery program.

Methods: Patients with normal nutritional status were prospectively included between October 2016 and September 2019, randomized into two groups (PPN with periOlimel N4-E versus conventional fluid therapy) and subsequently classified according to their preoperative CT scan into high- or low-risk BC groups.

Effect of Early Peripheral Parenteral Nutrition Support in an Enhanced Recovery Program for Colorectal Cancer Surgery: A Randomized Open Trial.

Background: Peripheral parenteral nutrition allows repletion of acute nutrient deficiencies and could prevent further nutrition deficits before and after colorectal surgery. A randomized open study was performed to evaluate the effect of perioperative peripheral parenteral nutrition (PPN) support on postoperative morbidity after colorectal cancer surgery within an enhanced recovery program.

Methods: Patients were randomized into two groups: peripheral parenteral nutrition (PPN) (with Peri-Olimel N4-E) versus conventional fluid therapy (FT).

The Thiel cadaveric model for pelvic floor surgery: Best rated in transferable simulation-based training for postgraduate studies.

Objective: To determine whether the Thiel cadaveric model is better and more realistic than other surgical simulation techniques for learning pelvic floor and perineal surgical procedures according to the opinions of urogynecologists and surgeons participating in international postgraduate pelvic floor surgery courses using cadavers embalmed by the Thiel method.

Study Design: An observational prospective study was performed in urogynecologists and surgeons attending international postgraduate pelvic floor and perineal surgery courses using cadavers embalmed by the Thiel method. A survey was completed by the participants after finishing the course.
