Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluating an evidence-based bundle for preventing surgical site infection: a randomized trial.
Thomas Anthony,Bryce W. Murray,Bryce W. Murray,John T. Sum-Ping,Fima Lenkovsky,Fima Lenkovsky,Vadim D. Vornik,Betty J. Parker,Jackie McFarlin,Kathleen Hartless,Sergio Huerta +10 more
TL;DR: An evidence-based intervention bundle did not reduce SSIs and the bundling of interventions, even when the constituent interventions have been individually tested, does not have a predictable effect on outcome.
Journal ArticleDOI
Surgical site infections after colorectal surgery: do risk factors vary depending on the type of infection considered?
Jennifer Blumetti,Myda Luu,George A. Sarosi,Kathleen Hartless,Jackie McFarlin,Betty J. Parker,Sean P. Dineen,Sergio Huerta,Sergio Huerta,Massimo Asolati,Massimo Asolati,Esteban Varela,Esteban Varela,Thomas Anthony,Thomas Anthony +14 more
TL;DR: The lack of overlap between factors associated with incisional infection and organ/space infection suggests that separate risk models and treatment strategies should be developed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Correlation between ankle-brachial index, symptoms, and health-related quality of life in patients with peripheral vascular disease.
Joshua Long,Joshua Long,J. Gregory Modrall,J. Gregory Modrall,Betty J. Parker,Ann Swann,M.Burress Welborn,M.Burress Welborn,Thomas Anthony,Thomas Anthony +9 more
TL;DR: HRQL in patients with PVD correlates weakly with ABI, but exhibits a closer association with vascular symptoms, suggesting that sole reliance on these surrogates may not accurately reflect the effect of PVD on HRQL, or the potential benefit of vascular surgery in improving HRQL.
Journal ArticleDOI
Surgical complications exert a lasting effect on disease-specific health-related quality of life for patients with colorectal cancer
Thomas Anthony,Joshua Long,Linda S. Hynan,George A. Sarosi,Fiemu E. Nwariaku,James F. Huth,Charlene Jones,Betty J. Parker,Robert V. Rege +8 more
TL;DR: For patients who undergo treatment of colorectal cancer, HRQL at 1 year after diagnosis is still influenced significantly and negatively by the occurrence of surgical complications.
Journal ArticleDOI
Transmetatarsal amputation: assessment of current selection criteria
Thomas Anthony,James Roberts,J. Gregory Modrall,Sergio Huerta,Massimo Asolati,John Neufeld,Betty J. Parker,Weibin Yang,George A. Sarosi +8 more
TL;DR: Although most patients retain the ability to ambulate after TMA, multiple operations should be anticipated in the majority of patients and revision of a TMA to a more proximal level may be required, suggesting that current selection criteria for TMA may be inadequate.
