Article Synopsis
- The study highlights the increasing importance of metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS) in addressing global obesity, emphasizing the need for rigorous academic and fellowship training for surgeons.
- A Modified Delphi method involving 89 surgeons from 42 countries was used to establish expert consensus on the necessary criteria for surgeons to obtain privileges for performing MBS, reaching agreement on 29 out of 30 statements.
- Key consensus points include the requirement for surgeons to hold a general surgery degree, complete a dedicated fellowship, and adhere to defined learning curves for various MBS procedures, alongside maintaining patient data and collaborating in a multidisciplinary team.
Background: There is little international data on morbidity and mortality of surgery for perforated peptic ulcer (PPU). This study aimed to understand the global 30-day morbidity and mortality of patients undergoing surgery for PPU and to identify variables associated with these.
Method: We performed an international study of adults (≥ 18 years) who underwent surgery for PPU from 1st January 2022 to 30th June 2022.
Background: No robust data are available on the safety of primary bariatric and metabolic surgery (BMS) alone compared to primary BMS combined with other procedures.
Objectives: The objective of this study is to collect a 30-day mortality and morbidity of primary BMS combined with cholecystectomy, ventral hernia repair, or hiatal hernia repair.
Setting: This is as an international, multicenter, prospective, and observational audit of patients undergoing primary BMS combined with one or more additional procedures.
Objective: This study aimed to assess 30-day morbidity and mortality rates following cholecystectomy for benign gallbladder disease and identify the factors associated with complications.
Summary Background Data: Although cholecystectomy is common for benign gallbladder disease, there is a gap in the knowledge of the current practice and variations on a global level.
Methods: A prospective, international, observational collaborative cohort study of consecutive patients undergoing cholecystectomy for benign gallbladder disease from participating hospitals in 57 countries between January 1 and June 30, 2022, was performed.
Objective: As the thoracolumbar interfascial plane (TLIP) block may be a promising alternative in spinal surgery, there is a need for timely meta-analysis of this method's effectiveness in different medical outcomes.
Methods: The meta-analysis of 6 randomized controlled studies on the application of TLIP block in spinal surgery was performed under the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. The primary outcome used for comparison was the mean difference (MD) of pain intensity scores at rest/in motion between patients receiving TLIP block and those receiving no block care.
