  • General Surgery Residency Curriculum
    General Surgery Educational Goals & Objectives General surgeons are specialists in the evaluation and treatment of patients with injuries, deformities, or medical illnesses that require operative intervention. They may diagnose and treat acute and chronic disorders of the breast, endocrine system, gastrointestinal tract, and skin and soft tissue and may go on to further training in a particular area, including such specialties as bariatrics, cardiothoracic surgery, colorectal surgery, oncology, pediatrics, surgical critical care, transplant, trauma, and vascular surgery. Our General Surgery Residency at Community Memorial Hospital will provide the resident with a strong foundation in basic science, including anatomy, biology, immunology, pathology, and physiology, with special expertise in the clinical care of patients in the community. The goal of the residency is to provide exposure to a broad base of surgical interventions and to encourage critical thinking, such that graduates can provide compassionate care at the forefront of knowledge in General Surgery. Residents spend the majority of their initial time in General Surgery, with additional rotations in Anesthesia and Critical Care to develop foundational skills upon which to base further training. Subsequent rotations in General Surgery and its subspecialties hone technical skills and promote dedicated study of General Surgery in both the inpatient and outpatient settings. Focus will be on learning normal and abnormal anatomy, understanding the natural history of surgical disease (untreated, treated medically, and treated surgically), and gaining expertise in multiple procedural skills. Comprehensive experience in pre-and post-operative care as well as exceptional operative training ensures that our residents achieve excellence in the diagnosis and management of surgical disease.

    High ligation of sapheno-femoral junction and thermal ablation for lower limb Ann Ital Chir, 2020 91, 1: 61-64 primary varicosity in day hospital setting pii: S0003469X20030262 Epub Ahead of Print 2 June 2019 free reading: www.annitalchir.com Luciano Izzo*, Federico Pugliese*, Gorizio Pieretti°, Sara Izzo*, Paolo Izzo* With collaboration of : Gaetano Florio***, Mauro Del Papa***, Daniela Messineo** *Department of Surgery “Pietro Valdoni”, Policlinico “Umberto I”, “Sapienza” University, Rome, Italy **Department of Radiological Sciences, Oncology and Pathology, “Sapienza” University, Rome, Italy ***L.P. Delfino Hospital, Department of General Surgery, Colleferro, Rome, Italy °Multidisciplinary Department of Medical-Surgical and Dental Specialties, Plastic Surgery Unit, Università degli Studi della Campania “Luigi Vanvitelli”, Naples, Italy High ligation of sapheno-femoral junction and thermal ablation for lower limb primary varicosity in day hospital setting AIM: The traditional surgical treatment for lower limb primary varicosity has been for a long time high ligation of sapheno-femoral junction and stripping of great saphenous vein. Surgery, however, has been frustrated by postoperative pains and discomfort and recurrences so that it has been challenged by minimally invasive endovenous techniques such as laser treatment and radiofrequency ablation. The aim of the article is to assess the feasibility, in a day hospital set- ting, of a combined approach to greater saphenous vein reflux: high ligation of sapheno-femoral junction and thermal treatment of the great sapenous vein. METHODS: A retrospective analysis on 95 patients treated with high ligation and thermal ablation at our institution from January 2009 to July 2017 was performed, assessing duration of surgery, post-operative pain and analgesics require- ments, early complications and resumption of activities.

  • Clinical Review: Vascular Access for Fluid Infusion in Children
    Clinical review: Vascular access for fluid infusion in children • Nikolaus A Haas Critical Care20048:478 https://doi.org/10.1186/cc2880 © BioMed Central Ltd 2004 • Published: 3 June 2004 Abstract The current literature on venous access in infants and children for acute intravascular access in the routine situation and in emergency or intensive care settings is reviewed. The various techniques for facilitating venous cannulation, such as application of local warmth, transillumination techniques and epidermal nitroglycerine, are described. Preferred sites for central venous access in infants and children are the external and internal jugular veins, the subclavian and axillary veins, and the femoral vein. The femoral venous cannulation appears to be the most safe and reliable technique in children of all ages, with a high success and low complication rates. Evidence from the reviewed literature strongly supports the use of real- time ultrasound techniques for venous cannulation in infants and children. Additionally, in emergency situations the intraosseous access has almost completly replaced saphenous cutdown procedures in children and has decreased the need for immediate central venous access. Keywords • central venous access • child • epidermal nitroglycerine • intraosseous • transillumination • venous cutdown Introduction Nothing can be more difficult, time consuming and frustrating than obtaining vascular access in the paediatric patient. This was best described by Orlowski in 1984 [1], who stated, 'My kingdom for an intravenous line'.

  • Sepsis Prevention: Vascular Access Care and Laboratory Testing in the Intensive Care Unit
    SEPSIS PREVENTION: VASCULAR ACCESS CARE AND LABORATORY TESTING IN THE INTENSIVE CARE UNIT JASSIN M. JOURIA, MD DR. JASSIN M. JOURIA IS A MEDICAL DOCTOR, PROFESSOR OF ACADEMIC MEDICINE, AND MEDICAL AUTHOR. HE GRADUATED FROM ROSS UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF MEDICINE AND HAS COMPLETED HIS CLINICAL CLERKSHIP TRAINING IN VARIOUS TEACHING HOSPITALS THROUGHOUT NEW YORK, INCLUDING KING’S COUNTY HOSPITAL CENTER AND BROOKDALE MEDICAL CENTER, AMONG OTHERS. DR. JOURIA HAS PASSED ALL USMLE MEDICAL BOARD EXAMS, AND HAS SERVED AS A TEST PREP TUTOR AND INSTRUCTOR FOR KAPLAN. HE HAS DEVELOPED SEVERAL MEDICAL COURSES AND CURRICULA FOR A VARIETY OF EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS. DR. JOURIA HAS ALSO SERVED ON MULTIPLE LEVELS IN THE ACADEMIC FIELD INCLUDING FACULTY MEMBER AND DEPARTMENT CHAIR. DR. JOURIA CONTINUES TO SERVES AS A SUBJECT MATTER EXPERT FOR SEVERAL CONTINUING EDUCATION ORGANIZATIONS COVERING MULTIPLE BASIC MEDICAL SCIENCES. HE HAS ALSO DEVELOPED SEVERAL CONTINUING MEDICAL EDUCATION COURSES COVERING VARIOUS TOPICS IN CLINICAL MEDICINE. RECENTLY, DR. JOURIA HAS BEEN CONTRACTED BY THE UNIVERSITY OF MIAMI/JACKSON MEMORIAL HOSPITAL’S DEPARTMENT OF SURGERY TO DEVELOP AN E-MODULE TRAINING SERIES FOR TRAUMA PATIENT MANAGEMENT. DR. JOURIA IS CURRENTLY AUTHORING AN ACADEMIC TEXTBOOK ON HUMAN ANATOMY & PHYSIOLOGY. Abstract When patients are brought to the Intensive Care Unit, extensive laboratory testing and monitoring is often considered necessary in order to diagnose and treat critical conditions. However, laboratory tests and monitoring are not without risk. Results can be misleading, and the testing itself can be harmful, such as potentially causing anemia and infection. Health professionals need to take a sensible approach to laboratory testing and monitoring for patients in the Intensive Care Unit, focusing on the benefits and risks of each procedure and being mindful of the probability of disease.
