Too busy to read the Lens? Listen to our weekly summary here! In this week's episode we discuss…Patching later in childhood for unilateral congenital cataract does not necessarily yield better final visual acuity. Intraoperative floppy iris syndrome was shown to be associated with use of certain antidepressants as well as inhalers, with some sex-specific patterns. Bisphosphonate use is linked to a higher cumulative incidence of age-related macular degeneration secondary to inflammatory signaling pathway activation.
With lives on the line, the smallest misstep in communication can have critical consequences. Patient data gets transferred at the handoff from the preoperative area to the operating room to the postoperative area, but most anesthesia practices have been slow to adopt a standardized approach to sharing this information. Today's guest, Pete Montrie, CRNA, DNP, created the AMPLE approach for his DNP project, and he'll explain how this streamlined process can improve communication and enhance patient safety. Here's some of what we discuss in this episode: Why he chose this topic for his DNP at the University of Alabama. The main issues that the literature identified during these handoffs. How he developed his project and his plan going in. The project resulted in a 70% increase in handoffs based on billing data.

CancerNetwork® spoke with Kamran Idrees, MD, MSCI, MMHC, FACS; Natalie A. Lockney, MD; and Milad Baradaran, PhD, DABR, about the potential utility of intraoperative radiation therapy (IORT) among patients with pancreatic cancer. The group detailed the design and mechanism, gradual technical advancements, and trial data supporting the application of this radiotherapy modality for this patient population. Idrees is the chief in the Division of Surgical Oncology & Endocrine Surgery, an associate professor of surgery, an Ingram Associate Professor of Cancer Research, and director of Pancreatic and Gastro-Intestinal Surgical Oncology at Vanderbilt University Medical Center. Lockney is an assistant professor in radiation oncology and the program director for the radiation oncology medical residency at Vanderbilt University Medical Center. Baradaran is the head of quality assurance operations and assistant professor in the Department of Radiation Oncology at Vanderbilt University Medical Center. As part of this discussion revolving around IORT, the group outlined the optimal conditions for using this technique depending on the extent of disease resectability in patients. Specifically, Idrees categorized patients as belonging to one of 3 major groups: those with metastatic disease, those with resectable disease, and those with borderline resectable or locally advanced disease. When considering these factors, patients with borderline resectable disease may be suitable to undergo IORT in combination with chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and surgery. The conversation also focused on a particular case involving a patient with pancreatic cancer who received IORT at their institution. Based on the outcome of this case, they highlighted how multidisciplinary collaboration in combination with careful patient selection may offer surgical resection through IORT. “[There] has to be a multidisciplinary team approach to carefully select these patients and [determine] who can benefit from this procedure,” Idrees said. “For the families and the physicians who are taking care of [patients with] pancreatic cancer, it's valuable to obtain a second opinion, even if [the tumor is] initially deemed unresectable. What's unresectable in one surgeon's hands may be resectable in a different team,” he added.

This piece is part of our coverage of The International Anesthesia Research Society (IARS) annual meeting. This wide ranging conversation tackles hemodynamics, intraoperative hypotension and its implications. We also discuss finance for medical practitioners and patient-centered research. Presented by Desiree Chappell, Vice President of Clinical Quality at NorthStar Anesthesia and TopMedTalk co-editor in Chief and Monty Mythen, TopMedTalk's founder and Senior Vice President Medical Affairs, Edwards Lifesciences with their guest Wael Saasouh, Anesthesiologist and Director of Research for NorthStar Anesthesia.
Although intraoperative ankle motion serves as a foundational reference for anticipated motion after surgery and guides the addition of procedures to enhance ankle motion in total ankle arthroplasty (TAA), the relationship between intraoperative and postoperative ankle motion remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate the discrepancy between intraoperative and postoperative ankle range of motion (ROM) following TAAs using the anterior-approach, fixed-bearing systems. In conclusion, this study revealed a significant difference between intraoperative ankle ROM and ankle ROM approximately 1 year after anterior-approach, fixed-bearing TAA, mainly due to plantarflexion motion restriction. Minimal difference in dorsiflexion suggests the importance of achieving the desired postoperative dorsiflexion motion during the surgery using the best possible adjunct procedures.

Studies have shown that monitoring and treating intraoperative nociceptive events can lead to less postoperative pain, making it a critical aspect of patient care during surgery. Still there is a difference in the perceived importance of anesthetic depth vs antinociception monitoring among anaesthetists. Which are the reasons behind this reality? Is it possible to guarantee intraoperative pain monitoring for all patients? Are the devices currently on the market known and used by professionals? In this episode our host Dr Roberta Monzani discuss with Dr Helmar Bornemann-Cimenti issues related to Intraoperative Pain Monitoring while highlighting the importance of pain management as an essential element in the medical health system and in patient care.

In this episode of the IJGC podcast, Editor-in-Chief, Dr. Pedro Ramirez, is joined by Dr. Janos L. Tanyi to discuss intraoperative imaging with OTL38 in ovarian cancer. Dr. Tanyi is an associate professor in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at The University of Pennsylvania. He developed an advanced immunotherapy program that allows patients' own immune cells to recognize and kill their tumor; a gene-engineered T cell approach. Dr. Tanyi has a broad background in immunotherapy, cancer immunology, molecular genetics and clinical expertise in gynecologic oncology. He has the frontline experience in ovarian cancer immunotherapy as he is the primary PI for both the ovarian cancer vaccine and adoptive T cell transfer trials at University of Pennsylvania. At Penn, he has fostered the establishment of a rich translational research environment focused on ovarian cancer. Furthermore, Dr. Tanyi led the Phase 2 and 3 trials evaluating the efficacy and safety of Pafolacianine Sodium combined with intraoperative molecular imaging during cytoreductive surgery of ovarian cancer. Highlights: - It is well known that the extent of residual disease after surgery is negatively correlated with patient survival in ovarian cancer. To achieve R0 complete cytoreduction remains the goal of surgery. In this phase III study, it was evaluated whether Cytalux, would identify cancer lesions not identified by the surgeon by white light visual inspection or palpation. - During this phase 3 trial, one or more additional cancer lesions were identified in approximately 33% of patients using of Cytalux with near-infrared imaging which was not detected by white light visual inspection and manual palpation. - The intraoperative use of Cytalux with near-infrared imaging can be a good adjunct to current surgical approaches in identifying additional cancer lesions during cytoreductive surgery.
Join us for an insightful episode on perfusion intraoperative non-technical skills, also known as PINTS. In this episode, we sit down with Dave Fitzgerald, the perfusion expert and Division Director of the Cardiovascular Perfusion Program at the Medical University of South Carolina to discuss the critical importance of these "soft skills" in perfusion. As an experienced perfusionist and educator, Dave sheds light on the human element of perfusion in the operating room (OR), and how mastering soft skills can lead to improved patient outcomes. Tune in to learn how non-technical skills such as communication, teamwork, and situational awareness can help perfusionists navigate complexities of the OR and provide the best possible care to their patients. Whether you're a seasoned perfusionist or a healthcare student interested in the field, this episode is not to be missed. Don't miss out on the AmSECT 61st International Conference, pre-conference session on PINTS on Thursday, March 23rd from 8am to 4pm in Orlando, Florida. Register online at www.amsect.org. This pre-conference workshop will focus on the use of non-technical skill assessment (PINTS) in a simulation session. This simulation will evaluate the feasibility of non-technical skills assessment during simulation as well as promote the use of the PINTS tool to assess perfusion non-technical skills and behaviors. Participants will increase their awareness of non-technical skills performance in improving quality and safety of perfusion care and management.
In this episode, Dr Jamie Coleman is joined by Roi Weiser, MD, from the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, and Suzanne Klimberg, MD, PhD, MSHCT, FACS, from the Division of Surgical Oncology at the University of Texas Medical Branch. They discuss their study, which shows that fluoroscopic intraoperative neoplasm and node detection (FIND) can be used to localize the biopsy clip marking a non-palpable breast or axillary lesion, obviating the need for an additional procedure to insert a localization device. Furthermore, FIND shows promising results, with decreased margin positivity and re-excision rate compared with wire localization.

Despite recent advances in arthroscopic rotator cuff repair, the retear rate remains high. New methods to optimize healing rates must be sought. Bone channeling may create a quicker and more vigorous healing response by attracting autologous mesenchymal stem cells, cytokines, and growth factors to the repair site. In conclusion, this trial did not demonstrate the superiority of intraoperative bone channeling in rotator cuff repair over standard rotator cuff repair at 24 months postoperatively. Healing rates, patient-reported function, and quality-of-life outcomes were similar between groups. Click here to read the article.

Kristin Chrouser, MD, MPH is an Associate Professor of Urology at the University of Michigan and Section Chief of Urology at the VA in Ann Arbor Michigan. She is an expert in intraoperative stress - something all surgeons are familiar with - and tackles it through a variety of academic avenues. We discuss physical stress through ergonomics and pain both in and out of the OR. We talk about the OR environment and mindsets that are conducive to a healthy and long surgical career. And we talk about how pain is the manifestation of so many stressful events in our life - whether they be physical, emotional, or psychological. This conversation is fun and full of practical pearls on how to keep yourself pain free and healthy.

This wide ranging discussion from Evidence Based Perioperative Medicine (EBPOM) USA asks how we should best try to manage the intraoperative period, where is the evidence telling us to focus? Do we get the impression that Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) delivers the value proposition? Are reduced complications always a good thing, even from a business perspective? What are the economic barriers to adopting enhanced recovery? Is Enhanced Recovery more spoken about than actually practiced? Presented by Monty Mythen and Desiree Chappell with their guests, Mark Koch, President and CEO of Somnia Anesthesia, Josh Lumbley, Chief Quality Officer of NorthStar Anesthesia, Sotiris Rompas, Global Health Economics and Reimbursement, Edwards Lifesciences - with additional questions from the audience.
This week we review a recent report from the team at Boston Children's Hospital about a novel approach to avoid heart block during complex congenital heart surgery? Assistant Professor of Pediatrics at Harvard Medical School Elizabeth DeWitt shares with us her insights into a recent report she co-authored by the departments of surgery and cardiology at her institution about intraoperative mapping of conduction. How easy is it to identify the conduction system and how effective at avoiding heart block? Who is a good candidate for this approach? Dr. DeWitt offers her insights as does Dr. John Triedman, Chief of Electrophysiology and a co-author. Dr. Triedman also shares with us information regarding the upcoming PedirhythmX conference that will be held in Boston 9/22-9/24. DOI: 10.1016/j.xjtc.2021.11.017
