Did COVID19 affect patients with gallbladder disease or appendicitis? @M_Esquivel_MD @explorersurgeon @OrlyFarber @ATitanMD @maryhawn https://t.co/Y8bmO0TPOX

@CWISociety @StanfordSurgery @stanfordtrauma @JeffChoi01 @AydinKaghazchi Yes, likely a bias from historical studies and early experiences. We have a considerably lower institutional hardware failure rate. But agree wholeheartedly with @jnahmias1 . Plating well and getting good outcomes takes mentorship, experience, skill and patience.

@DavidASpain Many thanks to the @SurgInfxSoc for the honor of having my proposal selected, and thank you @DavidASpain for the continued support! Can’t wait to present my findings at #SIS2022

Our @JSurgRes meta-analysis found SSRF hardware failure is uncommon in contemporary literature. Table 2 proposes research agenda to mitigate hardware failures. @StanfordSWAT team effort from @explorersurgeon @AydinKaghazchi Beatrice Sun

@NKDhillonMD @kheirbek @traumadoctorsam @DavidASpain @JeffChoi01 @GreiffenPatrick @DrJaneKeating @ricaurte_daniel @LenworthJacobs @dotu3535 @FredricPieracci @CWISociety @Brownsurgical We (ACS) do all our own SSRF and SSSF on our trauma patients. We see the patients in the trauma bay, manage them pre and postoperatively, and follow them longitudinally at our Chest Wall Injury Center.

@traumadoctorsam @DavidASpain @JeffChoi01 @GreiffenPatrick @kheirbek @DrJaneKeating @ricaurte_daniel @LenworthJacobs @dotu3535 @FredricPieracci @CWISociety We also publish our guidelines in the Trauma Guide app (available in the App Store)….can be found under the heading “Surgical Stabilization of Rib Fractures”.

Water waste, potential for bacterial outbreaks, cost savings…the list goes on. Next steps: let’s quantify the benefits of transitioning to mostly alcohol-based rub to be able to move forward in an evidence-based manner. Thanks to @explorersurgeon for the mentorship!

Time to transition: In support of alcohol-based surgical rub https://t.co/hYNy9eHHft. The West deals with another year of drought - a healthcare system’s drain on water should be evaluated…
