Pain assessment and procedural pain management practices in neonatal units in Australia.

OBJECTIVE: To identify current pain assessment and procedural pain management practices in neonatal units in Australia. METHODS: Postal survey conducted during December 2003 and January 2004. The survey comprised questions relating to pain assessment scores, pain reduction strategies for minor painful procedures and the use of articulated policies relating to procedural pain management. Participants were the Nurse Unit Managers or their nominees of neonatal intensive care units, special care units and newborn emergency transport services in Australia. RESULTS: Surveys were sent to 181 eligible organizations, and 105 of these were returned (58%). Six units (6%) used pain assessment scores on a regular basis, and 16 units (15%) had an articulated policy directing pain management practices during painful procedures. Non-nutritive sucking and various nursing comfort measures were the pain reduction strategies most frequently used during minor painful procedures. Twenty-four units (23%) used sucrose or other sweet-tasting solutions during procedures; however, the reported frequency of their usage was low. Breast-feeding during venepuncture, heel lance and intramuscular or subcutaneous injection was infrequently practised and topical anaesthetic agents were rarely used. CONCLUSION: This survey demonstrates that the majority of Australian neonatal units have no articulated policy to guide pain management during painful procedures and do not regularly undertake pain assessments. Current evidence-based strategies to reduce procedural pain in hospitalized infants are used infrequently.

Electrophysiological effect of the maze procedure on canine sinoatrial node function.

The maze procedure is an operation that has had great initial success in curing atrial fibrillation. This procedure includes several right atrial incisions that may interrupt the integrity of the sinoatrial node or its arterial supply. To assess the effect of the maze procedure on sinus node function (SNF), the following studies were performed: sinus node recovery times (SNRT), corrected SNRT (CSNRT), CSNRT under autonomic blockade maximal heart rate and intrinsic heart rates. Thirty-four dogs underwent a right thoracotomy with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). The dogs were divided into three groups. Group 1 (n = 9), the sham group, underwent CPB without any incisions. Group 2 (n = 8) underwent CPB and one of the right atrial incisions. Group 3 (n = 18) underwent CPB and all three of the right atrial incisions. SNF was determined before and after the procedure. Groups 1 and 2 had no significant difference in measured SNF acutely after the procedure. In Group 3 the mean SNRT increased from 552 msec to 1,984 msec (P = 0.005). Sinus node dysfunction was corroborated by all studies. In the chronic studies, a trend toward recovery of SNF was observed. The maze procedure results in significant acute sinus node dysfunction. This dysfunction may resolve spontaneously over the ensuing months. Modifications of the maze procedure that avoid the sinus node or its blood supply area may reduce procedure related sinus node dysfunction.

Patient and family attitudes regarding the practice of procedures on the newly deceased.

UNLABELLED: Performance of emergency lifesaving procedures is an integral part of emergency medicine resident training. OBJECTIVE: To assess attitudes of ED patients regarding the practice of procedures on the newly deceased. METHODS: A descriptive survey was administered to a convenience sample of ED patients and their families at two urban military Level-1 trauma centers. Subjects were asked about their overall opinions regarding the practice of nontherapeutic procedural skills on themselves or relatives immediately after death in the ED. Subgroup analysis included the issue of advanced permission and opinions regarding procedures defined by the investigators as noninvasive (e.g., laryngeal mask airway) or invasive (e.g., cricothyrotomy). Data were analyzed descriptively and with chi-square as appropriate. For comparison of proportions, a sample size of at least 140 was chosen for an alpha of 0.05 and a beta of 0.10 to detect an effect size of 0.3. Alpha was corrected for multiple comparisons prior to the study. RESULTS: Three hundred seventeen surveys were collected and 88% (n = 280) were complete. Seventy-five percent (n = 290) and 70% (n = 273) of the respondents agreed to after-death procedures on themselves or their relatives, respectively. However, only 40% (n = 106) and 50% (n = 131) would allow such procedures without prior permission. Seventy-one percent (n = 189) were willing to give permission in a living will, while 85% (n = 238) indicated support of a wallet card format. There was no significant difference in permission rates when contrasting individual noninvasive and invasive procedures. CONCLUSION: Most patients are willing to have procedures performed on themselves or relatives shortly after death, yet the majority request that permission be obtained in advance. A living will or carried card would be acceptable for such permission.

Patient opinions and attitudes toward medical student procedures in the emergency department.

OBJECTIVES: To determine emergency department (ED) patients' preferences about having medical students perform procedures as part of medical student clinical training. METHODS: A questionnaire was administered to a sequential sample of 150 patients of 196 approached (76.5% participation rate) in a teaching hospital ED. Patients were asked how many procedures a medical student should have performed on other patients before the participant would allow the student to perform the procedure on them. The procedures included venipuncture, starting an IV, suturing the face, suturing the arm, performing a lumbar puncture, starting a central line, inserting a nasogastric tube, intubation, and cardioversion. RESULTS: If they had their preference, only a minority of patients would allow medical students to perform their first procedure on them for any of the procedures (a high of 42% for venipuncture, with a low of 7% for a lumbar puncture). Many patients prefer that medical students never perform a procedure on them (a high of 56% for a central line and a low of 21% for venipuncture). Patient beliefs were independent of age, gender, or insurance status. CONCLUSIONS: Patients are reluctant to be a medical student's first patient when it comes to procedures in the ED. This has implications for medical training and informed consent.

Refractive error after triple and non-simultaneous procedures: is the application of a standard constant keratometry value in IOL power calculation advisable?

PURPOSE: The purpose of this investigation was to determine whether or not the use of a standard constant keratometry value in cases of preoperative abnormal keratometry values in biometry for triple procedures is advisable. METHODS: Cataract surgery and penetrating keratoplasty were performed in 82 eyes; 53 eyes underwent triple procedures and 29 eyes underwent non-simultaneous procedures. A standard constant keratometry value of 42.50 D was applied in 18 triple-procedure eyes because the preoperative measured keratometry values were outwith the normal range (41-47 D). The spherical equivalent and expected values were compared after a mean follow-up of 20.5 months. RESULTS: Cases in the triple-procedure group that achieved spherical equivalent within +/- 2.0 D of expected values included nine of 18 eyes (50%) in which a standard constant keratometry value of 42.50 D was applied, three of 17 eyes (18%) in which keratometry values outwith the normal range were applied (p = 0.044), and eight of 18 eyes (45%) in which keratometry values within the normal range were applied (p = 0.862). Cases in the non-simultaneous procedure group that achieved spherical equivalent within +/- 2.0 D of expected values included 22 of 24 eyes (92%) in which keratometry values within the normal range were applied (p = 0.0025), and five of five eyes (100%) in which a standard constant keratometry value was applied. CONCLUSIONS: The application of a standard constant keratometry value of 42.50 D for intraocular lens power calculation in triple procedures can be recommended if abnormal keratometry values were measured previously. If possible, non-simultaneous procedures should take priority.

Relationship of quality goals and measurement performance to the selection of quality control procedures for multi-channel haematology analysers.

An approach is described for selecting QC procedures based on goals for analytical quality, the performance characteristics of the measurement procedure (imprecision, bias, frequency of errors), and the performance characteristics of the control procedure (probabilities for error detection and false rejection). Performance characteristics of stable sample QC procedures and patient data QC procedures (retained patient specimens, Bull's single-rule algorithm, Bull's multi-rule algorithm) are compared to determine when to apply these different QC procedures to multichannel hematology analysers. Precise, stable methods may be controlled using Bull's single-rule algorithm; less precise, less stable methods require Bull's multi-rule algorithm, retained patient specimens, or stable sample QC procedures; imprecise and unstable methods are best controlled using stable sample QC procedures. "Multi-stage" designs may employ stable samples for "startup" testing, retained patient specimens for short term monitoring, and Bull's single-rule algorithm for long term monitoring.

An articulation index based procedure for predicting the speech recognition performance of hearing-impaired individuals.

An articulation index calculation procedure developed for use with individual normal-hearing listeners [C. Pavlovic and G. Studebaker, J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 75, 1606-1612 (1984)] was modified to account for the deterioration in suprathreshold speech processing produced by sensorineural hearing impairment. Data from four normal-hearing and four hearing-impaired subjects were used to relate the loss in hearing sensitivity to the deterioration in speech processing in quiet and in noise. The new procedure only requires hearing threshold measurements and consists of the following two modifications of the original AI procedure of Pavlovic and Studebaker (1984): The speech and noise spectrum densities are integrated over bandwidths which are, when expressed in decibels, larger than the critical bandwidths by 10% of the hearing loss. This is in contrast to the unmodified procedure where integration is performed over critical bandwidths. The contribution of each frequency to the AI is the product of its contribution in the unmodified AI procedure and a "speech desensitization factor." The desensitization factor is specified as a function of the hearing loss. The predictive accuracies of both the unmodified and the modified calculation procedures were assessed by comparing the expected and observed speech recognition scores of four hearing-impaired subjects under various conditions of speech filtering and noise masking. The modified procedure appears accurate for general applications. In contrast, the unmodified procedure appears accurate only for applications where results obtained under various conditions on a single listener are compared to each other.

Accelerated immunofluorescence procedure for the detection of Salmonella in foods and animal by-products.

An accelerated, direct immunofluorescent-antibody procedure was developed for the detection of Salmonella in food products. This method includes pre-enrichment and selective enrichment but eliminates many of the washing and smear treatments present in existing methods. Commercially available fluorescein-conjugated somatic antiserum was used in comparing this method with conventional culture, biochemical, and serological procedures. The 894 samples tested represented 39 different products. The fluorescent-antibody procedure detected Salmonella in 216 test samples as compared to 205 positives recovered by using the standard culture procedures. In no instance did the fluorescent-antibody procedure fail to detect a Salmonella positive which had been detected by the standard procedure. With a three-tube, most-probable-number procedure, the fluorescent-antibody method was able to detect Salmonella at a level of 0.036 organism per g. In addition to being a more rapid method for the detection of Salmonella, it has proven to be comparable to conventional culture procedures.

Nitrous oxide inhalation is a safe and effective way to facilitate procedures in paediatric outpatient departments.

AIMS: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of nitrous oxide treatment given to children presenting procedural problems in a paediatric outpatient department. METHODS: The study comprised 70 children 6-18 years old. Two different groups were studied. (1) Children presenting with problems in establishing venous cannulation (VC) (n = 50). The patients were randomised to conventional treatment (CO); cutaneous application of EMLA or nitrous oxide treatment (NO); N2O and EMLA. (2) Anxious children/children undergoing painful procedures who repeatedly come to the clinic (n = 20). These children underwent two procedures with CO/NO, the order of priority being randomised. Altogether the study included 90 procedures. Main outcome measures were procedure time, number of attempts required to establish VC, pain, and evaluation. RESULTS: All procedures were performed with NO while four VC (8%) were not possible to perform with CO. The number of attempts required to establish VC was lower when using NO (median 2, range 2-9), compared with CO (median 4, range 2-9). The estimated pain was lower with NO. The total mean time required was similar for NO and CO when the time required for the NO procedure was included. One complication, tinnitus, was observed; it disappeared within 3 minutes. CONCLUSION: The pretreatment with nitrous oxide is a time effective and safe method for use at paediatric outpatient departments to reduce pain, facilitate venous cannulation, and thereby reduce the number of costly cancellations of planned procedures.

Radiographic assessment of hip osteoarthritis progression: impact of reading procedures for longitudinal studies.

OBJECTIVE: To compare radiographic reading procedures and evaluate their impact on sample size in hip osteoarthritis (OA) longitudinal studies. METHODS: Pelvic radiographs performed twice, three years apart, in 104 patients with hip OA were read by a single reader using the Kellgren and Lawrence system, joint space narrowing scale, and joint space width (JSW). Reading procedures were (a) films read as single radiographs, (b) films grouped by patient but read in random order, (c) films grouped by patient and chronologically ordered, all with landmarks for JSW measurements, (d) films read as single radiographs, without landmarks for JSW measurements. JSW was measured at the narrowest point with a 0.1 mm graduated magnifying glass. RESULTS: More Kellgren and Lawrence or joint space narrowing grades were modified respectively with the single (42% and 37%) than with the paired (32% and 23%) or chronologically ordered (34% and 29%) reading procedures. Variability of JSW progression was principally related to mean progression (88.3%) and landmarks (almost 10%). Standardised response means were -0.71 with the paired reading procedure with landmarks, -0.68 with the single reading procedure with landmarks, -0.65 with the single reading procedure without landmarks. With landmarks, 10% more patients would be needed using single than paired reading. Using single reading, 10% more patients would be needed without landmarks than with landmarks. CONCLUSION: Kellgren and Lawrence grading seems to be influenced by the reading procedure, as is joint space narrowing grading, for assessing hip OA. Paired reading procedure with landmarks for JSW should be recommended in longitudinal studies.

Regional survey of temporary transvenous pacing procedures and complications.

OBJECTIVE: A prospective regional survey was carried out to describe the current practice of temporary transvenous pacing in five hospitals in the Wessex region and identify factors that predispose to complications. METHODS: Data were collected on patient characteristics, pacing indication and setting, operator grade, training, experience and supervision, venous access, procedure time, duration of pacing, complications, and eventual outcome. RESULTS: A total of 144 procedures were performed on 111 patients (age 75 (12) years). Median procedure time was 30 (1-150) min. Trainees performed 129 (91.5%) procedures. The senior physician present was a cardiologist/cardiology trainee for 65/144 (45.1%), and had experience of >20 procedures for 81/144 (57.9%). Venous access was by the subclavian in 52 (46.8%), internal jugular in 37 (33.3%) and femoral in 22 (19.8%), requiring multiple stabs or multiple sites in 41(33.1%). Pacing wires remained in place for a median of 2 (0.04-20) days. Overall procedure times were shorter for cardiologists/cardiology trainees (24[1-90] v 45[10-150] min, p<0.0001), and experienced physicians (30[1-150] v 40[10-120] min, p<0.01). There were 50 complications in 46/144 (31.9%) procedures, affecting 31/111 (27.9%) patients. Immediate complications were less common with experienced physicians (1/81 v 5/59, p<0.05). Infection occurred more often with wires left in situ for >48 hours (17/86 v 2/55, p<0.01) and with longer procedure times (55[8-150] v 30[1-120] min, p<0.005). No factors predicted displacement, which occurred at a median time of 1 (0.04-8) day. Complications delayed permanent pacemaker insertion in 19/63 (22.9%) patients. CONCLUSIONS: Temporary pacemaker insertion is performed by physicians with variable experience and training. The presence of an experienced cardiologist/cardiology trainee and decreasing the time that pacing wires remain in situ may reduce complications.

Objective evaluation of ERCP procedures: a simple grading scale for evaluating technical difficulty.

BACKGROUND: and objective: Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is a technically demanding endoscopic procedure that varies from a simple diagnostic to a highly complex therapeutic procedure. Simple outcome measures such as success and complication rates do not reflect the competence of the operator or endoscopy unit, as case mix is not taken into account. A grading scale to assess the technical difficulty of ERCP can improve the objectivity of outcome data. METHODS: A I to IV technical difficulty grading scale was constructed and applied prospectively to all ERCPs over a 12 month period at a single centre. The procedures were performed by two senior trainees and two experienced consultants (trainers). The grading scale was validated for construct validity and inter-rater reliability at the end of the study using the chi(2) test and kappa statistics. RESULTS: There were 305 ERCPs in 259 patients over the 12 months study period (males: 112, females: 147, age range 17-97, mean 70.3 years). There was overall success in 244 (80%) procedures with complications in 13 (4%): bleeding in five (1.6%), cholangitis in one (0.3%), pancreatitis in five (1.6%), and perforation in two (0.7%). Success rate was highest for grade I, 49/55 (89%), compared with grade IV procedures, 8/11 (73%). There was a significant linear trend towards a lower success rate from grade I to IV (p=0.021) for trainees, but not for trainers. Complications were low in grade I, II, and III procedures, 12/295(4%), compared with grade IV procedures, 1/11(9%). The inter-rater reliability for the grading scale was good with a substantial agreement between the raters (kappa=0.68, p<0.001). CONCLUSION: Success and complications of ERCP by trainees are influenced by the technical difficulty of the procedure. Outcome data incorporating a grading scale can give accurate information when auditing the qualitative outcomes. This can provide a platform for structured objective evaluation.

Nonvascular interventional procedures: analysis of a 10-year database containing more than 21,000 cases.

PURPOSE: To analyze all procedures performed during 10 years in a nonvascular interventional practice. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Date, organ location, and type of all 21,324 procedures performed between October 1990 and September 2000 were recorded in a database; also included were patient age and inpatient or outpatient status. Because genitourinary procedures were not included during the first 4 years, nephrostomies were added retrospectively. Yearly interventional caseload was compared with the department caseload and the assignment of new medical record numbers. Trends in individual procedure location and type were analyzed, as well as patient age, inpatient status, daily caseloads, and day of the week when the procedure was performed. RESULTS: Caseloads have increased 10.8% per year, exceeding increases in radiology department and hospital activity. Abdomen, outside of a specific organ, was the most common location; catheter deployment was the most common procedure. Abscess drainage, placement of chest tubes, and nephrostomies have increased, but biliary drainages have decreased. Inpatients outnumbered outpatients in all years except 1995, but the trend was toward an increase in the proportion of outpatients. The average patient was 59.6 years old, with average age diminishing. Friday was the busiest day, but weekend procedures have increased. CONCLUSION: Nonvascular interventional procedures have increased, with more currently being performed on weekends.

Abdominal percutaneous interventional procedures: comparison of CT and US guidance.

PURPOSE: To compare ultrasound (US) with computed tomography (CT) as a guidance modality for percutaneous interventional procedures. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A database of abdominal interventional procedures was reviewed for the 6 months preceding and 6 months after the opening of a dedicated US interventional suite. Changes in the number and type of procedures performed, room time, number of needle passes, and complication rates were calculated. RESULTS: In the first 6 months, 305 interventional procedures (138 tissue biopsies and 167 fluid aspirations) were performed (CT guidance in 87% [n = 120] and 95% [n = 159], respectively). In the 6 months after installation of the suite, 395 procedures (195 tissue biopsies and 200 fluid aspirations) were performed (US guidance in 76% [n = 148] and 34% [n = 67], respectively). The largest increase in US utilization was for guidance of tissue biopsies, rising from 6% (18 of 305) to 37% (148 of 395) of all procedures. Room time was significantly less for US-guided procedures (mean US room time, 77 minutes +/- 33 [1 standard deviation]; mean CT room time, 99 minutes +/- 38; P < .0001). CONCLUSION: US guidance often allows performance of quicker, more accurate procedures than does CT guidance, probably because of its real-time capabilities.

Comparison of lateral ankle ligamentous reconstruction procedures.

The static restraints of various surgical procedures for chronic lateral ankle instability were compared. Forty cadaveric ankles were divided equally into the following five groups: 1) ankles with intact anterior talofibular and calcaneofibular ligaments, 2) ankles with incised anterior talofibular and calcaneofibular ligaments, 3) ankles with Chrisman-Snook procedure, 4) ankles with Watson-Jones procedure, or 5) ankles with modified Broström procedure. All ankles were placed in a mechanical apparatus for anterior drawer stress and inversion stress tests. After each application of force, a radiograph of the ankle joint was taken, and the anterior talar displacement and the talar tilt angle were measured. All procedures reduced anterior drawer and talar tilt when compared with the ankles with incised anterior talofibular and calcaneofibular ligaments. Significant differences were found among the groups for both inversion and anterior drawer stress at all forces, except for the third and fourth groups. The modified Broström group had the least amount of anterior talar displacement and talar tilt angle at all forces. There were no significant differences between the Watson-Jones and the Chrisman-Snook procedures in anterior talar displacement and talar tilt. The modified Broström procedure produced a greater mechanical restraint than either of the other procedures.

Histologic evaluation of the glenohumeral joint capsule after the laser-assisted capsular shift procedure for glenohumeral instability.

Glenohumeral joint capsule obtained from 42 patients who had undergone an arthroscopic laser-assisted capsular shift procedure was evaluated histologically. A total of 53 samples from the anterior inferior glenohumeral ligament of the joint capsule were collected before and at various times after the procedure (range, 0 to 38 months). Despite glenohumeral instability, joint capsule of the patients before the procedure showed no significant histologic lesions. Laser treatment significantly altered the histologic properties of the tissue as evidenced by hyalinization of collagen and necrotic cells (time 0). Tissues sampled during the short-term period (3 to 6 months) after the procedure demonstrated fibrous connective tissue with reactive cells and vasculature. Collagen and cell morphology returned to normal in the middle- to long-term period (7 to 38 months) after the procedure, while the number of fibroblasts remained elevated. Joint capsule collected from the shoulders of six patients who experienced stiffness after the procedure showed persistent synovial, cellular, and vascular reaction even after 1 year postoperatively, the cause of which is unclear. This study revealed histologic evidence of robust tissue healing and maturation after thermal treatment by the laser-assisted capsular shift procedure, although mechanical and biochemical characterization of the tissue was not evaluated. Correlation with clinical follow-up must be performed to further clarify the advantages and disadvantages of this procedure.

Critical care procedure logging using handheld computers.

INTRODUCTION: We conducted this study to evaluate the feasibility of implementing an internet-linked handheld computer procedure logging system in a critical care training program. METHODS: Subspecialty trainees in the Interdepartmental Division of Critical Care at the University of Toronto received and were trained in the use of Palm handheld computers loaded with a customized program for logging critical care procedures. The procedures were entered into the handheld device using checkboxes and drop-down lists, and data were uploaded to a central database via the internet. To evaluate the feasibility of this system, we tracked the utilization of this data collection system. Benefits and disadvantages were assessed through surveys. RESULTS: All 11 trainees successfully uploaded data to the central database, but only six (55%) continued to upload data on a regular basis. The most common reason cited for not using the system pertained to initial technical problems with data uploading. From 1 July 2002 to 30 June 2003, a total of 914 procedures were logged. Significant variability was noted in the number of procedures logged by individual trainees (range 13-242). The database generated by regular users provided potentially useful information to the training program director regarding the scope and location of procedural training among the different rotations and hospitals. CONCLUSION: A handheld computer procedure logging system can be effectively used in a critical care training program. However, user acceptance was not uniform, and continued training and support are required to increase user acceptance. Such a procedure database may provide valuable information that may be used to optimize trainees' educational experience and to document clinical training experience for licensing and accreditation.

Costing imaging procedures.

The existing National Health Service financial system makes comprehensive costing of any service very difficult. A method of costing using modern commercial methods has been devised, classifying costs into variable, semi-variable and fixed and using the principle of overhead absorption for expenditure not readily allocated to individual procedures. It proved possible to establish a cost spectrum over the financial year 1984-85. The cheapest examinations were plain radiographs outside normal working hours, followed by plain radiographs, ultrasound, special procedures, fluoroscopy, nuclear medicine, angiography and angiographic interventional procedures in normal working hours. This differs from some published figures, particularly those in the Körner report. There was some overlap between fluoroscopic interventional and the cheaper nuclear medicine procedures, and between some of the more expensive nuclear medicine procedures and the cheaper angiographic ones. Only angiographic and the few more expensive nuclear medicine procedures exceed the cost of the inpatient day. The total cost of the imaging service to the district was about 4% of total hospital expenditure. It is shown that where more procedures are undertaken, the semi-variable and fixed (including capital) elements of the cost decrease (and vice versa) so that careful study is required to assess the value of proposed economies. The method is initially time-consuming and requires a computer system with 512 Kb of memory, but once the basic costing system is established in a department, detailed financial monitoring should become practicable. The necessity for a standard comprehensive costing procedure of this nature, based on sound cost accounting principles, appears inescapable, particularly in view of its potential application to management budgeting.
