“Prehabilitation” prior to CABG surgery improves physical functioning and depression☆
BACKGROUND Many patients demonstrate psychological distress and reduced physical activity before coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG). Here we evaluated the addition of a brief, cognitive-behavioural intervention (the HeartOp Programme) to routine nurse counselling for people waiting for CABG surgery. METHODS Randomised controlled trial comparing nurse counselling with the HeartOp prog...
متن کاملSingle-Port Robotic-Assisted Adrenalectomy: Feasibility, Safety, and Cost-Effectiveness
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES The introduction of robotic surgery offers patients and surgeons new options for adrenalectomy. Whereas multiport adrenalectomies have been safely performed using the robot, we describe our experience with the novel technique of single-port robotic-assisted adrenalectomy. METHODS We performed a matched-cohort study comparing 16 single-port robotic-assisted adrenalect...
متن کاملCost-effectiveness of routine surveillance endomyocardial biopsy after 12 months post-heart transplantation.
BACKGROUND Despite low risk of late rejection after heart transplant (HT), surveillance endomyocardial biopsies (EMBs) are often continued for years. We assessed the cost-effectiveness of routine EMB after 12 months post-HT. METHODS AND RESULTS Markov model compared the following surveillance EMB strategies to baseline strategy of stopping EMB 12 months post-HT: (1) every 4 months during year...
متن کاملCost-effectiveness of pediatric heart transplantation across a positive crossmatch for high waitlist urgency candidates.
Allosensitized children listed with a requirement for a negative prospective crossmatch have high mortality. Previously, we found that listing with the intent to accept the first suitable organ offer, regardless of the possibility of a positive crossmatch (TAKE strategy), results in a survival advantage from the time of listing compared to awaiting transplantation across a negative crossmatch (...
متن کاملMicroRNA Modulation during the In vitro Culture of Hematopoietic Stem Cells Prior to Transplantation
Background: Human umbilical cord blood (HUCB) is an acceptable and readily accessible source of stem cells. There is an ongoing interest in cord blood stem cell therapies; however, little is known about the possible unfavorable effects of laboratory modifications on the isolated HUCB cells. The involvement of miRNAs in several biological processes has been shown. The aim of this study was to ev...
