Conclusions: In the Australian context, the NRPC is a highly sensitive and useful tool for predicting 30-day mortality in high-risk emergency laparotomy patients and is comparable with P-POSSUM and ACS-NSQIP calculators.]]> Wed 20 Jul 2022 14:05:56 AEST ]]> Can CRP velocity in right iliac fossa pain identify patients for intervention? A prospective observational cohort study https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:47396 Tue 17 Jan 2023 11:07:35 AEDT ]]> CD36-a plausible modifier of disease phenotype in familial adenomatous polyposis https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:43079 Tue 13 Sep 2022 12:12:24 AEST ]]> Getting back ‘home’ after emergency laparotomy: how many never make it? https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:53789 70 years) had not returned to their pre-hospital residence. Conclusion: Patients who survive 90 and 365 days following EL nearly all return to their pre-hospital residence, with only a very small proportion of previously independent patients entering dependent care. This should help inform shared decision-making regarding emergency laparotomy in the acute setting.]]> Mon 15 Jan 2024 10:45:24 AEDT ]]> Combining sarcopenia and ASA status to inform emergency laparotomy outcomes: could it be that simple? https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:53774 Mon 15 Jan 2024 10:10:45 AEDT ]]> Sarcopenia ‘made simple’ and outcomes from emergency laparotomy https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:50742  0.5696; P < 0.001). Conclusion: Radiological sarcopenia (CT-assessed PM:L3) is a significant predictor of mortality in EL patients in Australia. The results of this study suggest that radiological sarcopenia is equivalent to established risk assessment tools. The more timely and easily accessible CT-assessed PM:L3 metric is potentially automatable and may have significant utility in clinical practice.]]> Fri 04 Aug 2023 08:25:43 AEST ]]>
