The Ideal

An improper stoma creation can cause many complications, varying from minor to life-threatening ones. Conversely, a good functioning stoma, at the ideal site improves patient’s quality of life. Most of the stoma complications occur in the early postoperative period and all clinicians must be familiar to these complications. All measures before and during operation must be taken to avoid these complications. Careful follow up after post operative period can help early diagnosis, proper treatment quick recovery of the patient. This review focus on common complications and treatment options of stoma creation.

BACKGROUND Ileostomy is a lifesaving procedure in cases like perforation, peritonitis, typhoid fever, tuberculosis, and trauma. Ileostomy serves the purpose of diversion, decompression, and exteriorisation. Construction of ileostomy is still a common and frequently performed procedure, even though it is a major advancement in the field of surgery. This study intends to evaluate the clinical profile of ileostomy and assess early postoperative complications of ileostomy. METHODS A total number of 36 patients admitted in MMIMSR, Mullana (Ambala), managed and operated with ileostomy were followed up closely from the day of admission in the hospital to the day of discharge. Different parameters were studied. RESULTS The clinical profile, techniques, complications, indications of ileostomy were studied in detail and along with various early complications encountered with ileostomy formation. The most common complication was peristomal irritation in 33 patients (91.7 %), followed by skin excoriation in 24 patients (66.7 %), fistula in 21 patients (58.3 %), high output stoma in 17 patients (47.2 %), stomal retraction in 3 patients (8.3 %), abscess in 2 patients (5.6 %), necrosis in 1 patient (2.8 %), and stenosis in 1 patient (2.8 %). CONCLUSIONS Construction of ileostomy and its management was associated with high rate of complications. However, most patients tolerated the complications of ileostomy well and the overall compliance was satisfactory. Loop ileostomy was the most commonly performed stoma and was associated with high rate of complications.

BACKGROUND: Surgical site infection is the most important and preventable cause of infections in surgical patients. It determines the morbidity and mortality in post -operative patients. Determination of modifiable factors can aid in modifying the course of post-operative period. The focus of this study is on the factors and organisms predisposing patient to surgical site infections. MATERIAL AND METHODS: A total of 140 cases undergoing emergency non traumatic abdominal operations were included and the variable factors were determined .RESULTS: Most of the patients (89.29 %) were in between 10-49 years. Rate of SSI was highest 26.47 % (9 among 34) in the 40 - 49 years age group. The rate of SSI was as high as 15 among 46 (32.61 %) dirty cases. Most of the infections (91.66 %) were started between 4th and 8th post operative days (POD) and it was highest 8 (33.33 %) on 5th POD. CONCLUSION: Multiple host, environment and infective organism related factors determine the outcome of surgery.

Two Parameters

Analytical sensitivity and spatial resolution are important and closely related factors in x-ray microanalysis using the AEM. Analytical sensitivity is the ability to distinguish, for a given element under given conditions, between two concentrations that are nearly equal. The analytical sensitivity is directly related to the number of x-ray counts collected and, therefore, to the probe current, specimen thickness and counting time. The spatial resolution in AEM analysis is determined by the probe size and beam broadening in the specimen. A finer probe and a thinner specimen give a higher spatial resolution. However, the resulting lower beam current and smaller X-ray excitation volume degrade analytical sensitivity. A compromise must be made between high spatial resolution and an acceptable analytical sensitivity. In this paper, we show the necessity of evaluating these two parameters in order to determine the low temperature Fe-Ni phase diagram.A Phillips EM400T AEM with an EDAX/TN2000 EDS/MCA system and a VG HB501 FEG STEM with a LINK AN10 EDS/MCA system were used.

Purpose The purpose of this study was to determine the attendance and success rates for seniors in voice therapy, identify any contributing patient-related factors, and compare results to existing findings for younger patients. Method This retrospective study included information from the voice records of 50 seniors seen by the same speech-language pathologist in a private practice. Analysis of attendance and outcome data divided participants into 6 groups. Outcomes for Groups 1–3 (64% of patients) were considered successful (positive voice change), while outcomes for Groups 4–6 (36% of patients) were considered unsuccessful. These data were compared to similar data collected for younger adults in a previous study. Results The attendance and success rates for seniors in this study were higher than those previously reported for younger patients. Further consideration of patient factors revealed that reports of increased stress, Reflux Symptom Index scores > 13, and higher Voice Handicap Index functional subscale scores were significant in distinguishing between patients in the successful and unsuccessful treatment outcome groups. Conclusions The relatively high attendance and success rates among this sample of seniors suggest the desire to achieve voice improvement does not diminish with age, and chances for success in voice therapy among nonfrail seniors may be greater than for younger patients.
