Objective: To review the cases of Stevens-Johnson syndrome and/or toxic epidermal necrolysis in adult male patients to determine the incidence of genitourinary manifestations, the indication for urethral catheters, and to provide recommendations for management. Materials and methods: This is a retrospective observational study of adult male patients over a ten year period. The study group is divided into patients with and without genitourinary manifestations. Results: We identified 57 patients who met the study inclusion criteria, of whom 39 had genitourinary involvement. The most common location of lesions was the phallus although many patients had multiple sites of involvement. These lesions were treated similarly compared to other nongenitourinary cutaneous lesions. Four patients presented with dysuria, one with frequency, and one with hesitancy and intermittency. A urethral catheter was placed in 25 of the 39 patients. None of the patients who were not catheterized and did not have lower urinary tract symptoms at the time of presentation developed voiding symptoms during their hospital stay. Apart from a one-time episode of incontinence in one patient that resolved spontaneously, none of the patients who were catheterized developed voiding issues after their catheters were removed. No patients required follow-up with urology after discharge. Conclusions: No patients developed a symptomatic urethral stricture. Many patients had multiple sites of involvement. Despite no standardized treatment being used, all cutaneous lesions were successfully treated in patients who survived their illness, with documented resolution of genitourinary lesions on physical examination. Routine urethral catheterization and urologic consultation are not necessary in these patients.

Urology - Abstract
Ureteral stenting following uncomplicated ureteroscopy is common practice. Several studies have proven the safety of omitting routine stent placement following distal ureteral stone treatment. However, there is a paucity of data regarding the utility of stent placement for proximal ureteroscopy. We designed a prospective, randomized controlled trial to evaluate the role of ureteral stent placement following ureteroscopy for proximal ureteral and renal stones.Seventy-two patients with proximal ureteral or renal stones measuring up to 1.5cm were prospectively randomized into stented (37) or unstented (35) groups. The surgeon was blinded to the treatment group until after stone treatment. Patients tracked postoperative pain medications and completed validated pain questionnaires on postoperative days 0, 3, 7 and 28. Stents were removed on postoperative day 7. Postoperative follow up imaging was obtained at four weeks.No statistical differences between the two groups in terms of demographics or stone characteristics. Operative time was longer in the stented group (p0.03). Patients in the stented group had more irritative urinary symptoms (p.0001) and pain (p.0001), lower quality of life scores (p0.001) and used more narcotics (p.0005) during the first week but no differences at 30 days. Emergency room visits and overall complication rates were similar between the two groups. 3 nonstented patients required stent placement. 2 stented patients required early stent removal. Urinary tract infections developed in 3 stented but in no unstented patients. Postoperative imaging did not reveal any hydronephrosis in either group and the total stone free rate (SFR) was 94%.For the majority of uncomplicated ureteroscopic treatment of proximal ureteral and kidney stones, it may be safe to omit ureteral stents in order to potentially decrease urinary symptoms and pain while improving short-term quality of life. Further studies with larger patient cohorts may be warranted to confirm our results.

To study healthcare avoidance behavior in pilots related to fear of aeromedical certificate loss.Voluntary participation in an anonymous survey distributed to U.S. pilots.A total of 3765 pilots were included in the analysis. There were 56.1% of pilots (n = 2111) who reported a history of healthcare avoidance behavior due fear for losing their aeromedical certificate. There were 45.7% who sought informal medical care (n = 1721) and 26.8% who misrepresented/withheld information on a written healthcare questionnaire for fear of aeromedical certificate loss (n = 994).Aircraft pilots may participate in healthcare avoidance behavior related to fear of losing their aeromedical certificate. Further work is necessary to address pilot healthcare avoidance.

Introduction Mortality associated with burn injuries is declining with improved critical care, including resuscitation. However, patients admitted with concurrent substance use have increased risk of complications and poor outcomes. The impact of alcohol and methamphetamine use on acute burn resuscitation has been described in single center studies, however, has not been studied since implementation of computerized decision support for resuscitation. The purpose of this study was to evaluate resuscitation volumes for patients with alcohol and methamphetamine use within a large prospective observational trial at 5 major US burn centers. Methods We performed an observational trial across five institutions with > 20% total body surface area (TBSA) burn, weighing >40kg that were resuscitated utilizing computerized decision support. Patients were evaluated based presence of alcohol, with a minimum blood alcohol level of 0.10, or positive methamphetamines on urine drug screen. Fluid volumes and urine output were examined over 48 hours and Wilcoxon Method was utilized to compare patient groups. Results A total of 296 patients were analyzed. 37 (12.5%) were positive for methamphetamine use, 50 (16.9%) were positive for alcohol use, and 209 (70.1%) with negative for both. Patients positive for methamphetamine received a mean of 5.30 ±2.63 cc/kg/TBSA, patients positive for alcohol received a mean of 5.41 ± 2.49 cc/kg/TBSA, and patients with neither received a mean 4.33 ± 1.79 cc/kg/TBSA. Patients with methamphetamine or alcohol use had significantly higher fluid requirements than those who were negative for both substances. In the first 6 hours patients with alcohol use had significantly higher urinary output in comparison to patients with methamphetamine use which had similar output to patients negative for both substances. Conclusions This study demonstrated that patients with alcohol and methamphetamine use had statistically significantly larger fluid resuscitation requirements compared to patients without. The effects of alcohol as a diuretic align with previous literature. However, patients with methamphetamine lack the increased urinary output as a cause for their increased fluid requirements. Methamphetamine’s neurologic and cardiovascular effects due to increased release of dopamine, serotonin, and norepinephrine are known. Further investigation is required to better understand the mechanism underlying the need for increased resuscitation after burn injury in patients positive for methamphetamines. Applicability of Research to Practice The impact of alcohol and illicit substances on burn care, especially during the initial resuscitation, aids providers in guiding early critical care.

Introduction Fungal wound infections (FWI) cause morbidity and increase mortality in burn patients. Our burn center experienced 44 patients with fungal wound colonization (FWC) and/or FWI between JAN 2015 and JAN 2019. In response, we undertook a performance improvement project to prevent and treat FWC and FWI. Methods Members of the multidisciplinary team met to develop a clinical practice guideline (CPG) for the prevention and management of FWC and FWI based on current evidence. We focused on patients with elevated risk, that is, with burns ≥20% total body surface area (TBSA) and in the Burn ICU (BICU). Interventions included: utilizing alternating silver sulfadiazine and mafenide acetate creams upon admission; reducing the use of mafenide acetate solution; utilizing silver nitrate solution post-operatively; and applying topical nystatin cream or powder for suspected FWC or FWI. We educated all staff members and updated order sets and training materials. We collected data on all burn patients who had a wound biopsy out of concern for possible infection. Biopsy results were categorized as FWC or FWI. Retrospective data were collected for MAR 2020 - MAR 2021 (PRE). Post-implementation, prospective data collection began MAR 2022 (POST) and will continue for one year. Adherence to the CPG was assessed by chart review. Mann-Whitney and Fischer Exact tests were performed. Results The PRE (n=15) and POST (n=9) groups were similar in age (43±13 vs. 48±18 years) but differed in TBSA (49±19 vs 28±25%, p< .05). PRE group biopsies showed FWC in 0 patients and FWI in 11 of 15 patients (73%); 8 of these (53%), all with FWI, died. In the POST group, FWC was found in 1 patient (11%) and FWI was found in 2 of 9 patients (22%); one death occurred in the patient with FWC. Adherence to the CPG for admission topical wound care was 7% in the PRE group vs 89% in the POST group (p=0.0001); adherence to the CPG for day-of-biopsy topical wound care was 27% in the PRE group vs 89% in the POST group (p< 0.01). Conclusions Adherence to a CPG for the prevention and treatment of FWC and FWI was associated with a lower (but not statistically significant) prevalence of these complications. Limitations include a difference in the TBSA between the 2 groups and potential concurrent changes in practice. Ongoing data collection includes the evaluation of other potential contributing factors. Applicability of Research to Practice Fungi are common in the environment, and when combined with immunosuppression and extensive open wounds, may cause wound infection in burn patients. More research is needed to further evaluate effective treatments for the prevention and treatment of FWC and FWI in these patients.

Infectious Diseases ,Oncology - Abstract
Background Secondary infections in patients receiving extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) are difficult to identify as many signs traditionally associated with infection, such as temperature, are partially controlled by the ECMO circuit. This study analyzes the utility of procalcitonin (PCT) as a diagnostic marker in identifying secondary infections in patients receiving ECMO with influenza or COVID-19. Methods A single center retrospective study was performed on patients receiving ECMO with underlying influenza or COVID-19 from November 2017 to October 2021. Patient demographics, time receiving ECMO, culture data, and PCT levels were extracted. The first PCT within three days of an infection designated positive was compared to negative values, PCT extracted from patients without an identified infection or any PCT 10 days after the most recent infection. Furthermore, PCT levels were compared by type of pathogen as well as site of infection via Mann-Whitney U tests. Results 84 patients (77% males) met inclusion criteria with median age of 43 (interquartile range (IQR): 35-51). Median ECMO time was 416 hours (IQR: 232-824), with 64 (76%) of the patients admitted for COVID-19. A total of 276 (3.3 per patient) PCT were ordered during the study period. Of the 92 infections identified, 33 (36%) had an associated PCT value with 19 (58%) PCT collected on the day of positive culture, 10 (32%) within one day, and 4 (12%) collected two to three days after positive culture. There was no significant difference between median PCT value among the infection group (1.0 IQR: 0.40-1.19) compared to the non-infectious group (1.27 IQR: 0.47-4.26, p= 0.19), between Gram-positive and Gram-negative infections (1.09 IQR: 0.43-2.70 vs. 0.95 IQR: 0.4-1.29 p= 0.35) or between bloodstream infections and respiratory infections (1.3 IQR 0.45-2.70 vs. 0.55 IQR: 0.4-1.38, p=0.35). PCT does not decline after infection is identified (Figure 1). Procalcitonin Trends Figure 1.Procalcitonin levels do not statistically decline over the course of an infection. Conclusion While PCT has been proposed as a potential diagnostic marker for secondary infections in patients receiving ECMO, this single center study did not demonstrate utility of PCT in identifying secondary infections. Furthermore, there was no association of PCT levels with either the site of infection or type of infectious organism. Disclosures All Authors: No reported disclosures.

Rehabilitation ,Emergency Medicine ,Surgery - Abstract
Introduction Though commonly used to tailor fluid resuscitation, urine output may be a late indicator of impending burn shock. We sought to identify precedents of an early oliguric episode within 6 hours of admission. We hypothesize that specific variables may indicate early at-risk features during resuscitation. Methods We performed a secondary analysis of adults enrolled in the Burn Navigator resuscitation trial. We divided into two cohorts: those with oliguria (< 30ml/hr) and those without. Variables were compared by descriptive statistics. Results A total of 146 adults met inclusion criteria. More oliguric patients experienced systolic pressures < 90 mmHg (p=0.02) or Diastolic pressures < 40 mmHg (P=0.01). The minimum bicarbonate level (p=0.04), larger TBSA (p=0.01) and larger full thickness component (p=0.004) were all predictors of early oliguria. There were also more female patients (p=0.003) in the oliguric group. No cohort difference was observed for these variables: burn mechanism, percent partial thickness, HR >140 beats per minute (BPM) or hourly change in HR >10 BPM, temperature < 36C, hourly MAP drop >10 mmHg, creatine kinase, age, body mass index, hematocrit level, alcohol level, or methamphetamine use. Conclusions Specific variables and physiological derangement thresholds precedes the first oliguric episode during major burn resuscitation. These variables constitute at-risk features that may help derive future algorithms for efficient burn resuscitation. Applicability of Research to Practice Precursor variables of an early oligouric episode identify patients needing closer fluid titration.

Rehabilitation ,Emergency Medicine ,Surgery - Abstract
Introduction Initial fluid infusion rates for resuscitation of burn injuries typically use formulas based on patient weight and total body surface area (TBSA) burned. However, the impact of this rate on overall resuscitation volumes and outcomes have not been extensively studied. The purpose of this study was to determine the impact of initial fluid rates on 24 hour volumes and outcomes using the Burn Navigator (BN). Methods The BN database is composed of 300 patients with > 20% TBSA, >40kg that were resuscitated utilizing the BN. Four study arms were analyzed based on the initial formula – 2ml/kg/TBSA, 3 ml/kg/TBSA, 4 ml/kg/TBSA or the Rule of Ten. Total fluids infused at 24 hours after admission were compared as well as resuscitation-related outcomes. Results A total of 296 patients were eligible for analysis. Higher starting rates (4 ml/kg/TBSA) resulted in significantly higher volumes at 24 hours (5.2 + 2.2 ml/kg/TBSA) than lower rates (2 ml/kg/TBSA resulted in 3.9 + 1.4 ml/kg/TBSA). No shock was observed in the high resuscitation cohort, whereas the lowest starting rate exhibited a 12% incidence, lower than both the Rule of Ten and 3 ml/kg/TBSA arms. There was no difference in 7-day mortality across groups. Conclusions Higher initial fluid rates resulted in higher 24-hour fluid volumes. The choice of 2ml/kg/TBSA as initial rate did not result in increased mortality or more complications. An initial rate of 2ml/kg/TBSA is a safe strategy. Applicability of Research to Practice Utilizing a lower starting fluid rate is a safe strategy and should considered after severe burn injury.

Introduction Maximizing patient satisfaction is now a significant focus in many outpatient orthopedic clinics as it has been shown to affect many facets of healthcare. With this quality improvement study, we sought to determine the areas of the longest patient wait time during their clinical encounter and evaluate the effect of an identification card system on those times. We hypothesized that utilizing an identification card system would expedite the time patients spend in the clinic and decrease wait times. Methods This quality improvement study was conducted in an orthopedic hand surgery clinic within a military treatment facility. Pre-intervention and intervention data collection consisted of a time sheet that was filled out by surgeons and clinic staff as the patient progressed through their appointment. The intervention consisted of a card system to track the patient throughout their encounter and mark their order in the queue. Results There were a total of 130 patients in the pre-intervention group and 113 in the intervention group. Compared with the pre-intervention group, the intervention group patients had significantly less time from check-in to being roomed by the clinic staff with a mean of 13 ± 13 vs. 21 ± 19 minutes in the pre-intervention group (P Conclusion We provided a simple way to decrease patient wait times and increase time with the healthcare team, utilizing our existing clinic space. Time with the orthopedic surgeon significantly increased because of our intervention, while the overall clinic time trended down.

Status migrainosus (SM) is a subtype of migraine defined by migraine lasting >72 hours and is difficult to treat in clinical practice. Magnesium is commonly used in the treatment of migraine. We conducted a retrospective cohort study to determine if length of admission was associated with IV magnesium therapy in patients with SM. We reviewed the charts of all patients admitted to a large military treatment facility from October 2013 to December 2018 with the admission diagnosis of migraine. There were 333 patients that were reviewed and 141 met the inclusion criteria. Nearly half of patients received IV magnesium therapy with routine care (46.8%, n = 66). IV magnesium therapy was not associated with length of admission (58 hours (IQR 25.5, 86) compared to 42 hours (IQR 25.5, 80.5) respectively, p = 0.47). Of the cases without Neurology consultation, patients who received magnesium therapy (n = 5) had numerically shorter admission but this difference did not meet statistical significance (n = 12) (17 hours (IQR 13.75, 31.25) versus 24.5 hours (IQR 15.25, 58.75), p = 0.0534). This study contributes to the limited pool of available data on the treatment of SM. Prospective research is needed to study magnesium therapy in patients with prolonged migraine.

General Engineering - Abstract
Introduction The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has precipitated change across the aviation industry, including aeromedical standards. U.S. pilot occupational behavior regarding COVID-19 infections and vaccinations have not been well-studied. Methods We conducted an anonymous survey of 661 U.S. pilots from September 1, 2021, through December 15, 2021. Results We found 23.8% of pilots reported a history of COVID-19 infection but only 20.5% of infected pilots reported this history to an aeromedical examiner (AME)/flight surgeon. Of uninfected pilots, 50.5% reported being either extremely unlikely or somewhat unlikely to disclose a new infection to an AME/flight surgeon. Seventy-nine point six percent (79.6%) of pilots received at least one dose of any COVID-19 vaccine and 89.6% of those who received a vaccine complied with the 48-hour no-flying policy. Of the unvaccinated pilots, 74.5% reported being either extremely unlikely or somewhat unlikely to receive a vaccine.

Current literature suggests that infant oral anatomy may impact breastfeeding outcomes. Our research seeks to evaluate superior labial frenulum (SLF) attachment site grade utilizing a modified existing system and investigate the correlation with breastfeeding outcomes.Two hundred and eight dyads were recruited from the nursery at Brooke Army Medical Center. The neonate's SLF and lingual frenulum were evaluated and photo-documented. Photos were assessed by blinded reviewers utilizing a modified Stanford SLF grade. Breastfeeding mothers completed surveys on attitudes and associated pain with feedings 24 h postdelivery, at 2 weeks and at 2 months. Categorical data were analyzed using chi-squared tests or Fisher's exact tests. Means and standard deviations were analyzed using analysis of variance or Wilcoxon's test.At 2 weeks and 2 months, 86.8% and 72.8% were breastfeeding, respectively. At 2 months, SLF grade 1 newborn dyads had a significantly lower breastfeeding rate (50.0%) compared to SLF grade 2 (75.3%) and SLF grade 3 (85.7%) subjects (p = 0.0384). At 2 weeks and 2 months, there was no difference between SLF groups with regard to maternal breastfeeding attitudes or pain scores. There was no significant difference in terms of weight, referrals, or lingual-labial frenulectomy between SLF groups.Our study shows no correlation between SLF attachment grade and breastfeeding outcomes to include length of breastfeeding, maternally reported confidence, maternal pain, or infant weight. Our findings do not support labial frenulectomy based on SLF grade alone and highlight the need for a more robust functional grading system.2 Oxford Center for Evidence-Based Medicine. http://www.cebm.net/index.aspx?o=5653 Laryngoscope, 132:2498-2504, 2022.

Diagnosis of a new medical condition in pilots may precipitate the end of an aviation career or hobby. For this reason, a barrier exists for pilots to seek medical care due to fear of losing an aeromedical certificate. Females represent a growing proportion of pilots in the United States and data on healthcare seeking behavior in this cohort is sparse. We conducted an anonymous online survey of 154 female pilots and 131 female non-pilots in the United States. 83.7% of female pilots have experienced healthcare related aversion compared to 27.5% of non-pilots. 66.7% of female pilots had withheld information from a physician while 46.0% had delayed or forwent medical care due to concern for their medical status. Further studies should be conducted to inform policy change to address pilot healthcare barriers.

To assess whether a self-care toolkit (SCT) provided to breast cancer patients undergoing surgery could mitigate distress and lessen symptoms associated with surgery.One hundred women with breast cancer, planning to undergo initial surgery, were randomly assigned to either one of two groups: treatment as usual (TAU; n = 49) or TAU with the addition of an SCT (n = 51). The SCT contained an MP3 player with audio-files of guided mind-body techniques (breathing, progressive muscle relaxation, meditation, guided imagery, and self-hypnosis) and acupressure antinausea wristbands. Anxiety, pain, nausea, sleep, fatigue, global health, and quality of life (QOL) were assessed using validated outcome measures. Two inflammatory blood markers (erythrocyte sedimentation rate [ESR] and C-reactive protein [CRP]) were measured serially. Data were collected at baseline (T1), immediately before surgery (T2), within 10 h postoperatively (T3), and ∼2 weeks postsurgery (T4).Numerous studies have shown that psychological distress associated with a cancer diagnosis can affect pain perception and QOL.Between T1 and T4, there were significant between-group differences in Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS)-57 scores of Pain Interference, Fatigue, and Satisfaction with Social Roles, favoring the SCT group compared with TAU (p = 0.005, p = 0.023, and p = 0.021, respectively). There was a significant mean change in Defense and Veterans Pain Rating Scale (DVPRS) scores from T2 to T3, with the SCT group having significantly smaller increases in postoperative pain (p = 0.008) and in postoperative ESR (p = 0.0197) compared with the TAU group. Clinically significant reductions in anxiety occurred in the SCT group during the main intervention period.These results suggest that using the SCT in the perioperative period decreased pain perceptions, fatigue, and inflammatory cytokine secretion.

OBJECTIVE To assess the effect of group education on the frequency of chronic headaches among adolescents. BACKGROUND Chronic headaches are a common problem among adolescents with significant psychosocial morbidity. Brief education on lifestyle interventions to decrease headache frequency has established benefits among adult patients but is less proven among adolescents. METHODS This study is a chart review examining our experience with a group education program for 155 adolescents, aged 12-17 years old, enrolled in the U.S. military medical system with at least 3 months of chronic headaches who were referred to a headache evaluation clinic. The primary outcome of our study was self-reported number of days with a headache in the previous 30 days based on patient recall. We used a paired samples t-test to measure the change in headache frequency between the frequency reported at the headache class and follow-up more than 6 months after the class. RESULTS Most of the adolescents seen in the program were female (114/155 [73.5%]) and suffered from migraine headaches (108/155 [69.8%]). Severe headache-related disability was reported by 40.6% of subjects (63/155). Subjects reported an average of 19 days with headache during the previous 30 days. Females and patients with higher headache-related disability reported a higher number of days with headache. Participation in the group education was associated with an 11.5 (SD 11.9, P

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: In 2016, the Department of Defense extended maternity leave from 6 to 12 weeks for active duty mothers to support breastfeeding initiation and duration. Limited data exist regarding the impact of prolonged maternity leave. Our objective was to evaluate the prolongation of maternity leave on the initiation and duration of breastfeeding in active duty mothers. METHODS: In this single-center retrospective cohort study, we used data collected from Department of Defense electronic health care records of infants born to active duty mothers who were delivered during calendar years 2014 and 2016. The primary outcomes were initiation and duration of breastfeeding and breastfeeding exclusivity evaluated throughout the first year of life. Secondary outcomes were differences in breastfeeding rates between military-branch affiliation and military rank. RESULTS: No changes in breastfeeding initiation occurred between the 2 cohorts (n = 423 and 434). However, an increase in breastfeeding establishment was identified at the 2- (81.5% vs 72.4%; P = .002), 4- (70.5% vs 56.7%; P < .001), 6- (60.3% vs 46.5%; P < .001), and 9-month (45.4% vs 34.9%; P = .003) visits in the 12-week leave cohort. Exclusive breastfeeding increased at 2 (56.4% vs 47.2%; P = .007), 4 (47.5% vs 36.4%; P = .001), and 6 (37.3% vs 29.3%; P = .016) months. CONCLUSIONS: Increases in maternity leave correlated with increased breastfeeding duration and exclusivity through 9 months for active duty mothers. These data support the benefit of extended maternity leave in the military and the need for future studies to validate findings at other military treatment facilities.

OBJECTIVE The objective of this study is to discern patterns of serum sodium in a broad cohort of extremely low birth weight (ELBW) infants and associate those patterns with hospital outcomes. STUDY DESIGN Retrospective cohort study of ELBW infants from 323 neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) discharged from 2004 to 2014. We included patients who survived at least 7 days and had daily sodium levels available, and categorized infants by their minimum and maximum sodium levels. RESULTS We identified 26,871 infants of whom 12,428 met inclusion criteria. Only 1964 (15.8%) maintained eunatremia for the first week. We found most dysnatremias to be associated with increased overall mortality compared with eunatremic patients including moderate hyponatremia (12.9% vs. 8.6%, p

Background: This study assessed the potential cost-effectiveness of high (80–100%) vs low (21–35%) fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2) at preventing surgical site infections (SSIs) after abdominal surgery in Nigeria, India, and South Africa. Methods: Decision-analytic models were constructed using best available evidence sourced from unbundled data of an ongoing pilot trial assessing the effectiveness of high FiO2, published literature, and a cost survey in Nigeria, India, and South Africa. Effectiveness was measured as percentage of SSIs at 30 days after surgery, a healthcare perspective was adopted, and costs were reported in US dollars ($). Results: High FiO2 may be cost-effective (cheaper and effective). In Nigeria, the average cost for high FiO2 was $216 compared with $222 for low FiO2 leading to a −$6 (95% confidence interval [CI]: −$13 to −$1) difference in costs. In India, the average cost for high FiO2 was $184 compared with $195 for low FiO2 leading to a −$11 (95% CI: −$15 to −$6) difference in costs. In South Africa, the average cost for high FiO2 was $1164 compared with $1257 for low FiO2 leading to a −$93 (95% CI: −$132 to −$65) difference in costs. The high FiO2 arm had few SSIs, 7.33% compared with 8.38% for low FiO2, leading to a −1.05 (95% CI: −1.14 to −0.90) percentage point reduction in SSIs. Conclusion: High FiO2 could be cost-effective at preventing SSIs in the three countries but further data from large clinical trials are required to confirm this.

Cerebral vasospasm (VSP) is a frequent complication after aneurysmal and traumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) and carries significant morbidity and mortality. Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is associated with the severest casualties from Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom. From Oct. 1, 2008 the US Army Medical Department initiated a transcranial Doppler (TCD) ultrasound service for TBI; included patients were retrospectively evaluated for TCD-determined incidence of posttraumatic cerebral vasospasm and intracranial hypertension after wartime TBI. Patients were identified using a computerized registry and a prospective TCD database maintained in the Sentient NeuroCare Services. TCD recordings of mean cerebral blood flow velocities (CBFV) and Pulsatility Indices of the anterior and posterior circulation vessels were recorded using a 2-MHz transducer (Doppler Box, DWL/Compumedics, USA, Germany/Australia). Comprehensive TCD protocol was applied in all cases: if mean CBFV equaled or exceeded 100 cm/sec., 140 cm.sec and 200 cm/sec the TCD signs of mild vasospasm, moderate vasospasm and severe vasospasm respectively were considered present. 122 patients were investigated with daily TCD studies and comprehensive TCD protocol and published diagnostic criteria for VSP and raised intracranial pressure (ICP) were applied. TCD signs of mild, moderate and severe VSP involving anterior circulation vessels were observed in 71%, 42% and 16% of patients, respectively. TCD signs of mild, moderate and severe VSP involving posterior circulation vessels were observed in 57%, 32% and 14% of patients, respectively. TCD signs of intracranial hypertension were recorded in 43%, eight patients (7%) underwent transluminal angioplasty for post-traumatic symptomatic vasospasm treatment. These findings demonstrate that cerebral arterial VSP and intracranial hypertension are frequent and significant complications of combat TBI, therefore daily TCD monitoring is recommended for their recognition and subsequent management.

Most critically ill injured patients are transported out of the theater by Critical Care Air Transport Teams (CCATTs). Fever after trauma is correlated with surgical complications and infection. The purposes of this study are to identify the incidence of elevated temperature in patients managed in the CCATT environment and to describe the complications reported and the treatments used in these patients.We performed a retrospective review of available records of trauma patients from the combat theater between March 1, 2009, and March 31, 2010, who were transported by the US Air Force CCATT and had an incidence of hyperthermia. We then divided the cohort into 2 groups, patients transported with an elevation in temperature greater than 100.4°F and patients with no documented elevation in temperature. We used a standardized, secure electronic data collection form to abstract the outcomes. Descriptive data collected included injury type, temperature, use of a mechanical ventilator, cooling treatment modalities, antipyretics, intravenous fluid administration, and use of blood products. We also evaluated the incidence of complications during the transport in patients who had a recorded elevation in temperature greater than 100.4°F.A total of 248 trauma patients met the inclusion criteria, and 101 trauma patients (40%) had fever. The mean age was 28 years, and 98% of patients were men. The mechanism of injury was an explosion in 156 patients (63%), blunt injury in 11 (4%), and penetrating injury in 45 (18%), whereas other trauma-related injuries accounted for 36 patients (15%). Of the patients, 209 (84%) had battle-related injuries and 39 (16%) had non-battle-related injuries. Traumatic brain injury was found in 24 patients (24%) with an incidence of elevated temperature. The mean temperature was 101.6°F (range, 100.5°F-103.9°F). After evaluation of therapies and treatments, 80 trauma patients (51%) were intubated on a mechanical ventilator (P.001). Of the trauma patients with documented fever, 22 (22%) received administration of blood products. Nineteen patients received antipyretics during their flight (19%), 9 received intravenous fluids (9%), and 2 received nonpharmacologic cooling interventions, such as cooling blankets or icepacks. We identified 1 trauma patient with neurologic changes (1%), 6 with hypotension (6%), 48 with tachycardia (48%), 33 with decreased urinary output (33%), and 1 with an episode of shivering or sweating (1%). We did not detect any transfusion reactions or deaths during flight.Fever occurred in 41% of critically ill combat-injured patients evacuated out of the combat theater in Iraq and Afghanistan. Fewer than 20% of patients with a documented elevated temperature received treatments to reduce the temperature. Intubation of patients with ventilators in use during the transport was the only factor significantly associated with fever. Serious complications were rare, and there were no deaths during these transports.

Introduction Surgical site infection (SSI) is one of the most common healthcare-associated infections (HAIs). However, there is a lack of data available about SSI in children worldwide, especially from low-income and middle-income countries. This study aimed to estimate the incidence of SSI in children and associations between SSI and morbidity across human development settings.Methods A multicentre, international, prospective, validated cohort study of children aged under 16 years undergoing clean-contaminated, contaminated or dirty gastrointestinal surgery. Any hospital in the world providing paediatric surgery was eligible to contribute data between January and July 2016. The primary outcome was the incidence of SSI by 30 days. Relationships between explanatory variables and SSI were examined using multilevel logistic regression. Countries were stratified into high development, middle development and low development groups using the United Nations Human Development Index (HDI).Results Of 1159 children across 181 hospitals in 51 countries, 523 (45·1%) children were from high HDI, 397 (34·2%) from middle HDI and 239 (20·6%) from low HDI countries. The 30-day SSI rate was 6.3% (33/523) in high HDI, 12·8% (51/397) in middle HDI and 24·7% (59/239) in low HDI countries. SSI was associated with higher incidence of 30-day mortality, intervention, organ-space infection and other HAIs, with the highest rates seen in low HDI countries. Median length of stay in patients who had an SSI was longer (7.0 days), compared with 3.0 days in patients who did not have an SSI. Use of laparoscopy was associated with significantly lower SSI rates, even after accounting for HDI.Conclusion The odds of SSI in children is nearly four times greater in low HDI compared with high HDI countries. Policies to reduce SSI should be prioritised as part of the wider global agenda.
