Journal ArticleDOI
Epidemiology of Cytomegalovirus Infection after Transplantation and Immunosuppression
Milan Fiala,John E. Payne,Thomas V. Berne,Thomas C. Moore,Werner Henle,John Z. Montgomerie,Satya N. Chatterjee,Lucien B. Guze +7 more
TL;DR: Reactivation of a latent infection and, less likely, respiratory infection appear to be the most probable mechanisms of cytomegalovirus infection after renal transplantation.
Journal ArticleDOI
A prospective study on the safety and efficacy of angiographic embolization for pelvic and visceral injuries.
George C. Velmahos,Konstantinos Toutouzas,Pantelis Vassiliu,Grant Sarkisyan,Linda S. Chan,Sue H. Hanks,Thomas V. Berne,Demetrios Demetriades +7 more
TL;DR: Angiographic embolization is highly effective in controlling bleeding caused by abdominal and pelvic injuries and difficult to manage by surgery and should be offered liberally in patients with selected injuries of the pelvis and abdominal visceral organs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Old age as a criterion for trauma team activation.
Demetrios Demetriades,Jack Sava,Kathleen Alo,Edward J. Newton,George C. Velmahos,James Murray,Howard Belzberg,Juan A. Asensio,Thomas V. Berne +8 more
TL;DR: Elderly trauma patients have a high mortality, even with fairly minor or moderately severe injuries, and a significant number of elderly patients with severe injuries do not meet the standard criteria for TTA.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluation of penetrating injuries of the neck: Prospective study of 223 patients
Demetrios Demetriades,Dimitrios Theodorou,Edward E. Cornwell,Thomas V. Berne,Juan A. Asensio,Howard Belzberg,George C. Velmahos,Fred A. Weaver,Albert E. Yellin +8 more
TL;DR: It was concluded that physical examination is reliable for identifying those patients with penetrating injuries of the neck who require vascular or esophageal diagnostic studies and color flow Doppler imaging is a dependable alternative to angiography.
Journal ArticleDOI

Juan A. Asensio,Santiago Chahwan,David Hanpeter,Demetrios Demetriades,Walter Forno,Esteban Gambaro,James Murray,George C. Velmahos,Jason Marengo,William C. Shoemaker,Thomas V. Berne +10 more
TL;DR: Abdominal vascular injuries are highly lethal and multiple arterial and venous injuries increase mortality, and mortality correlates with AAST-OIS for abdominal vascular injury.
