Operating Room Ventilation With Laminar Airflow Shows No Protective Effect on the Surgical Site Infection Rate in Orthopedic and Abdominal Surgery.
In this analysis of a large data pool from the German national nosocomial infections surveillance system, the odds ratio for acquiring a severe surgical site infection (SSI) after hip prosthesis implantation was significantly higher using laminar airflow operating room ventilation (1.63 < 1.06, 2.52>), as compared with turbulent ventilation. In the case of knee prosthesis, appendectomy, cholecystectomy, colon surgery, and herniorrhaphy, no significant differences were detected in the outcome of severe SSI.Page: 695DOI: 10.1097/SLA.0b013e31818b757dAuthors: Brandt, Christian MD *; Hott, Uwe MD *; Sohr, Dorit PhD *; Daschner, Franz MD, PhD +; Gastmeier, Petra MD, PhD *; Ruden, Henning MD, PhD *

Eliminating health care disparities in the United States will require a multifaceted approach that will include increasing diversity in the health care workforce. We evaluated the demographic information of surgical residents, junior faculty, and tenured professors. Academic surgery is exceedingly deficient of African American and Latino American residents, junior faculty, and tenured professors and this undoubtedly needs to be corrected.Page: 704DOI: 10.1097/SLA.0b013e31817f2c30Authors: Butler, Paris D.

Improved Quality of Life Outcomes After Laparoscopy-Assisted Distal Gastrectomy for Early Gastric Cancer: Results of a Prospective Randomized Clinical Trial.
Although there are randomized prospective studies supporting the use of a laparoscopy-assisted gastrectomy for gastric cancer, they are primarily focused on oncologic outcome; these prior reports have not addressed postoperative quality of life. We report on the first clinical study comparing the quality of life of patients undergoing laparoscopic gastrectomy with those who have an open gastrectomy for early gastric cancer.Page: 721DOI: 10.1097/SLA.0b013e318185e62eAuthors: Kim, Young-Woo MD, PhD *+; Baik, Yong Hae MD, PhD +**; Yun, Young Ho MD, PhD ++; Nam, Byung Ho PhD [S]; Kim, Dae Hyun MD, PhD [P]; Choi, Il Ju MD, PhD *+; Bae, Jae-Moon MD, PhD *+++++
