Journal ArticleDOI

Stephen M. Cohn,Avery B. Nathens,Frederick A. Moore,Peter Rhee,Juan Carlos Puyana,Ernest E. Moore,Gregory J. Beilman,Janet McCarthy,Rachelle B. Jonas,Joe Johnston,Peter P. Lopez,Dian Nuxoll,Huawei Tang,Bruce A. McKinley,Burapat Sangthong,Constantinos Constantinou,Patricio M. Polanco,Andrew B. Peitzman,Stephanie Huls,Jeffrey L. Johnson,Catherine C. Cothren,Melissa Thorson,Alan Beal,Teresa Nelson,Ronald G. Pearl,Larry M. Gentilello,Anthony A. Meyer,Le Ann D. Anderson,Barbara L. Gallea,Diane Rupp,Becky Saar,Michelle McGraw,Virginia Diaz,Kristi Carlson,Greg Wheatley +34 more
TL;DR: NIRS-derived muscle StO2 measurements perform similarly to BD in identifying poor perfusion and predicting the development of MODS or death after severe torso trauma, yet have the additional advantages of being continuous and noninvasive.
Journal ArticleDOI
Massive transfusion in trauma patients: tissue hemoglobin oxygen saturation predicts poor outcome.
Frederick A. Moore,Teresa Nelson,Bruce A. McKinley,Ernest E. Moore,Avery B. Nathens,Peter Rhee,Juan Carlos Puyana,Gregory J. Beilman,Stephen M. Cohn,Janet McCarthy,Rachelle B. Jonas,Joe Johnston,Peter P. Lopez,Avery B. Nathen,Dian Nuxoll,Huawei Tang,Burapat Sangthong,Constantinos Constantinou,Patricio M. Polanco,Andrew B. Peitzman,Stephanie Huls,Jeffrey L. Johnson,Catherine C. Cothren,Melissa Thorson,Alan Beal,G. Pearl Ronald,Larry M. Gentilello,Anthony A. Meyer,Leann Anderson,Barbara L. Gallea,Diane Rupp,Becky Saar,Michelle McGraw,V. A. Diaz,Kristi Carlson,Greg Wheatley +35 more
TL;DR: Patients who require massive transfusion can be predicted early, and persistent low StO2 identifies those MT patients destined to have poor outcome, and new strategies to improve outcome are tested.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prothrombin Complex Concentrate Versus Standard Therapies for INR Reversal in Trauma Patients Receiving Warfarin
Scott A. Chapman,Eric D. Irwin,Alan Beal,Nichole M Kulinski,Katherine E Hutson,Melissa Thorson +5 more
TL;DR: PCC, when added to FFP and vitamin K, resulted in a more rapid time to reversal of the INR, which did not differ significantly between the 2 groups.
Journal ArticleDOI
A systematic method for follow-up improves removal rates for retrievable inferior vena cava filters in a trauma patient population.
Eric D. Irwin,Matthew C. Byrnes,Scott Schultz,Jeffrey G. Chipman,Alan Beal,Mark N. Ahrendt,Gregory J. Beilman,J. Kevin Croston +7 more
TL;DR: It is hypothesized that the application of a systematic follow-up for rIVCF will improve filter removal rates, providing patients short-term prophylaxis from pulmonary embolism whereas avoiding complications of permanent filter retention.
Journal ArticleDOI
Repair of high-risk incisional hernias and traumatic abdominal wall defects with porcine mesh.
Matthew C. Byrnes,Matthew C. Byrnes,Eric D. Irwin,Dana Carlson,Amy Campeau,Jonathon C Gipson,Alan Beal,J. Kevin Croston +7 more
TL;DR: The technique in combination with the XenMatrix biologic mesh provides for durable repair and should be closed above the underlay mesh whenever possible, because this technique provides a more durable repair than using the mesh as a “fascial bridge.”
