Risk Factors of Acute Kidney Injury According to RIFLE Criteria After Lung Cancer Surgery
Marc Licker,Vanessa Cartier,John Robert,John Diaper,Yann Villiger,Jean-Marie Tschopp,Cigdem Inan +6 more
TL;DR: The RIFLE classification is a valuable tool to assess AKI after lung cancer surgery, and the severity of perioperative renal impairment is associated with increased mortality and morbidity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hospital-wide surveillance of catheter-related bloodstream infection: from the expected to the unexpected
Walter Zingg,Hugo Sax,Cigdem Inan,Vanessa Cartier,M. Diby,François Clergue,Didier Pittet,Bernhard Walder +7 more
TL;DR: In a univariate Cox proportional hazards model, the high CRBSI rate in abdominal surgery was associated with longer CVC duration, frequent use of parenteral nutrition and CVC insertion by anaesthetists, and when frequent ward transfers occurred.
Hospital-wide surveillance of catheter-related bloodstream infection: from the expected to the
Walter Zingg,Hugo Sax,Cigdem Inan,Vanessa Cartier,M. Diby,François Clergue,Didier Pittet,Bernhard Walder +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors conducted a four-month prospective cohort study of all non-cuffed central venous catheters (CVCs) to design an efficient CRBSI surveillance and prevention program.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impact of aerobic exercise capacity and procedure-related factors in lung cancer surgery.
Marc Licker,Jean-Marie Schnyder,Jean-Georges Frey,John Diaper,Vanessa Cartier,Cigdem Inan,John Robert,Pierre-Olivier Bridevaux,Jean-Marie Tschopp +8 more
TL;DR: The data support the use of pre-operative CPET and the application of an intra-operative protective ventilation strategy and further studies should evaluate whetherPre-operative physical training can improve post-operative outcome.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hospital-wide multidisciplinary, multimodal intervention programme to reduce central venous catheter-associated bloodstream infection.
Walter Zingg,Vanessa Cartier,Cigdem Inan,Sylvie Touveneau,Michel Theriault,Angèle Gayet-Ageron,François Clergue,Didier Pittet,Bernhard Walder +8 more
TL;DR: The findings suggest that clinically relevant reduction of hospital-wide CLABSI was reached with a comprehensive, multidisciplinary and multimodal quality improvement programme including aspects of behavioural change and key principles of good implementation practice.
