AI Article Synopsis
Article Abstract
Background: The nursing work in the operating room is heavy, intensive, and irregular, and the quality of nursing work can directly affect the surgical effect and patient prognosis. Therefore, nursing management in the operating room should be strengthened to protect patients' life safety effectively.
Objective: To assess the effectiveness of applying the 6S management model in operating room nursing.
Design: This was a retrospective study.
Setting: This study was conducted at the Department of Anesthesia Surgery, Nanfang Hospital, Southern Medical University.
Participants: The research included 100 operating room nurses on duty between January 2020 and December 2022.
Intervention: From January 2020 to June 2021, the hospital conducted routine training programs for nurses in the operating room. From July 2021 to December 2022, the hospital adopted the 6S management model for overseeing nursing work in the operating room.
Primary Outcome Measures: (1) nursing quality score (2) nursing staff safety awareness (3) nursing disputes and complaints (4) incidence of adverse reactions (5) patient satisfaction with the quality of nursing care.
Results: Following the adoption of the 6S management model, there was a noticeable improvement in the nursing quality scores, the nursing staff's awareness of safety, and the satisfaction levels of patients with the quality of care provided by operation nurses (P < .05). Additionally, the incidence of nursing disputes, complaints, and adverse events among patients decreased significantly compared to before the implementation of 6S (P = .01).
Conclusion: Implementing 6S management with a focus on the work of operation room nurses enhanced the competence of the nursing staff and improved management effectiveness, ultimately leading to increased patient satisfaction.

Presentation and Surgical Outcomes of Primary Hyperparathyroidism After Radioactive Iodine Therapy.
J Surg Res
January 2025
Department of Surgery, Washington University School of Medicine, Saint Louis, Missouri.
Background: Radioactive iodine (RAI) is a common treatment for various thyroid diseases. Previous studies have suggested susceptibility of parathyroid glands to the mutagenic effect of RAI and the development of primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT). We tested the possible link between prior RAI treatment, disease presentation, and treatment outcomes.

Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Nemours Children's Health, Wilmington, Delaware.
Case: A 14-year-old adolescent girl sustained a Lisfranc fracture-dislocation with an interposed extensor hallucis brevis (EHB) tendon. Following multiple failed attempts at closed reduction in both the emergency department and the operating room, the patient was treated in a staged manner with temporizing closed reduction and percutaneous pinning in improved alignment, followed by definitive open reduction and internal fixation once soft tissues allowed.
Conclusions: Anatomic reduction and stable fixation of Lisfranc injuries is vital to regain stability and reduce the risk of midfoot arthritis and collapse.
Combining Transversus Abdominis Plane and Rectus Sheath Blocks in Open Inguinal Hernia Surgery Anesthesia: A Retrospective Cohort Analysis.
World J Surg

Department of Gastroenterological Surgery, Tampere University Hospital, Tampere, Finland.
Background: Lichtenstein hernia repair is a common surgical procedure. Previously, combined rectus sheath (RS) and transversus abdominis plane (TAP) blocks have been shown to be beneficial in laparoscopic inguinal hernia surgery. Our hypothesis is that combining the two blocks will also be beneficial in open Lichtenstein hernioplasty day-case procedures.

Nanomaterials (Basel)

Guangdong Key Laboratory of Materials and Equipment in Harsh Marine Environment, School of Ocean Engineering, Guangzhou Maritime University, Guangzhou 510725, China.
Metal oxide semiconductor (MOS) hydrogen sensors offer advantages, such as high sensitivity and fast response, but their challenges remain in achieving low-cost fabrication and stable operation at room temperature. This study investigates Nb-doped TiO (NTO) thin films prepared via a one-step micro-arc oxidation (MAO) with the addition of NbO nanoparticles into the electrolyte for room-temperature hydrogen sensing. The characterization results revealed that the incorporation of NbO altered the film's morphology and phase composition, increasing the Nb content and forming a homogeneous composite thin film.

Background/objectives: Healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) and antimicrobial resistance (AMR) present significant challenges in modern healthcare, leading to increased morbidity, mortality, and healthcare costs. Examination gloves play a critical role in infection prevention by serving as a barrier to reduce the risk of cross-contamination between healthcare workers and patients. This manuscript aims to provide consensus-based guidelines for the optimal selection, use, and disposal of examination gloves in healthcare settings, addressing both infection prevention and environmental sustainability.
