What is an NSQIP nurse? Is this a new field of nursing? NSQIP stands for National Surgical Quality Improvement Program and the NSQIP nurse works as a surgical clinical reviewer examining surgical notes to abstract specific data so that it can be used as a basis for future quality improvement initiatives. Find out more about NSQIP nursing in this episode of NurseTalks._______________email: nursetalksIG@aol.com

In this episode, Dr Dante Yeh is joined by Gabriel Brat, MD, FACS, MPH and Jayson Marwaha, MD, MBI, from Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Boston, MA. They discuss their recent study, which compared the predictive utility of preoperative surgeon intuition and surgical risk calculators and found that, while preoperative surgeon intuition alone is an independent predictor of patient outcomes, traditional risk calculators are more robust predictors of postoperative complication.   Disclosure Information: Drs Brat and Marwaha have nothing to disclose.

The latest podcast episode is with Dr. AJ Copeland- a general surgeon, retired Colonel in the Army, former President of the Association of Women Surgeons and current Regent for the American College of Surgeons, and a personal hero of mine. She describes her rise in leadership in major national surgery organizations. She is a self-described "joiner" and if there was a position that seemed right for her, she would always raise her hand to do it. Once involved in a position, she notes the importance of doing the work. She found meaningful work in AWS as a contributor on numerous projects including the AWS Pocket Mentor found here and creating the guide for patients on "What is a surgical resident" (found here) as an ACS governor. On this episode, she shared some tips on leadership: - if you find a need- either something that needs to get done, or you think you can do it better- then raise your hand and get involved - When in the position, do the work - Bring others along. You may see their potential before they do. Tell others about opportunities, and encourage them to apply. She stressed the importance of getting involved in national societies, especially the American College of Surgeons. The ACS is the umbrella organization for all surgical subspecialties. Unlike smaller societies, the ACS has the numbers to help lobby for change, advocate for what surgeons need, and provide other services like education (SESAP, ATLS, the Clinical Congress), quality (NSQIP), and other benefits. She is one of 24 Regents of the ACS, a part of the organization that is responsible for the big picture and directives for all surgeons. She was a Governor prior to this, a body of around 300 surgeons who act as representatives of the Fellows. Governors represent the Fellows of the American College of Surgeons, and are the official communications link between Fellows and the Board of Regents. https://www.womensurgeons.org/ https://www.facs.org/

In questo video si parla della valutazione cardiologica dei pazienti candidati a procedure chirurgiche non cardiache. Tra gli argomenti considerati ci sono gli score clinici più utilizzati per stimare il rischio personale del paziente: come il Revised cardiac risk index (RCRI), l'American College of Surgeons surgical risk calculator e il myocardial infarction or cardiac arrest (MICA) del National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (NSQIP). Si fa inoltre riferimento alle linee guida perioperatorie dell'American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association del 2014 e al concetto di MACE, Major adverse cardiovascular events. Infine vengono considerate 4 condizioni cardiache ad alto rischio considerate controindicazioni alla chirurgia non cardiaca: le Sindromi Coronariche acute, l'Insufficienza cardiaca scompensata acuta, le Tachiaritmie e le Bradiaritmie che richiedono un trattamento urgente, la Stenosi Aortica grave sintomatica.

In this episode of the IJGC podcast, Editor-in-Chief Dr. Pedro Ramirez, is joined by Dr. Sarah Ackroyd to discuss postoperative complications of epidural analgesia. Dr. Sarah Ackroyd is a gynecologic oncology fellow at the University of Chicago. Her research interests include health economics and outcomes research with a focus on decision analysis and patient-centered medical decision making. Dr. Sarah Ackroyd is a gynecologic oncology fellow at the University of Chicago. Her research interests include health economics and outcomes research with a focus on decision analysis and patient-centered medical decision making. Main points: - Our study utilizing the NSQIP database found that in a cohort of >2,000 patients who received an epidural at time of hysterectomy for cancer, there was a ~14% higher rate of minor complications including blood transfusions and superficial wound infection. - Challenges of the epidural including hypotension and related complications, may be explained by the medication-induced sympathetic block that primarily prevents pain perception but can affect other sympathetic functions.J45 - Other studies in Gyn Oncology that utilized the epidural in an ERAS protocol demonstrate an overall improvement in postoperative pain scores, K43decreased opioid use, and no major complications. - In the appropriate patient with the above findings considered, regional anesthesia such as the epidural, should be considered as part of a multi-modal pain approach.

In this podcast, one of Global Spine Journal's Editor-In-Chiefs, Jeff Wang, interviews Zachary Smith on his article, "Thirty-Day Readmission Risk Factors Following Single-Level Transforaminal Lumbar Interbody Fusion (TLIF) for 4992 Patients From the ACS-NSQIP Database".

Hear a discussion on how physician feedback can improve process measure performance and how this may (or may not) relate to improvements in quality metrics. With Lahey Clinic Chief Quality Officer Rocco Ricciardi and Reviewer / Editorial author Robin McLeod.

This podcast highlights original research published in the March 2017 issue of Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, the official journal of the American Academy of Otolaryngology—Head and Neck Surgery (AAO-HNS) Foundation. The objective for this study was to determine which complications, as defined by the American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (NSQIP) database, correlate with 30-day mortality in surgery for malignancies of the head and neck. NSQIP data from 2005 to 2014 were queried for ICD-9 codes head and neck malignancies. Multivariate logistic regression was used to examine the correlation of individual complications with 30-day mortality. The NSQIP database has been extensively validated and used to examine surgical complications, yet there is little analysis on which complications are associated with death. This study identified complications associated with increased risk of 30-day mortality following head and neck cancer surgery. These associations may be used as a measure of complication severity and should be considered when using the NSQIP database to evaluate outcomes in head and neck surgery.   Click here to read the full article.
