Gaddo Flego MD, Francesco Cardinale MD, ASL Nr 4 "Chiavarese", Italy and Ligurian Regional HTA Network The Italian National Health System is centrally governed by the Ministry of Health and by Local Health Authorities (ASL) at Regional level. The Region of Liguria is divided into 5 ASL. Each ASL governs hospitals in the territory of competence. Liguria, for the government of technological innovation, approved with a formal act in 2011 (DGR 295) the creation of a Regional HTA Network in order to implement the process of Health Technology Assessment and to develop the concept of Evidence Based Medicine. The main point of the resolution is the introduction of a Mini HTA grid, that must be filled by proponents before the introduction of any technological innovation. Regional HTA Workflow Since 2011 the Ligurian Network Regional HTA Network has Organisation & Role Hospitals require innovative evaluated the following technologies through Mini devices: Director HTA grid compilation 1) Virtual Colonoscopy CAD Coordination group 2) Porcine Dermal Collagen Surgery Consists of all Professionals who Grid submission to Scientific 3) Sling for urinary incontinence may be involved in the Secretariat 4) Collagen Matrix for sutures evaluation, depending on the 5) Fixation device in surgery device to be evaluated: doctors 6) Sterilization devices with different specialisations, Analysis of quality of data 7) Implantable device for Glaucoma clinical engineers, chemists, produced in the grid, 8) Intravascular Catheter context and scientific health economists and 9) Optical Coherence Tomography literature by the Scientific 10) Pneumothorax drainage system representatives of the citizens.

  • Information for Patients Having a Sigmoid Colectomy
    Patient information – Pre-operative Assessment Clinic Information for patients having a sigmoid colectomy This leaflet will explain what will happen when you come to the hospital for your operation. It is important that you understand what to expect and feel able to take an active role in your treatment. Your surgeon will have already discussed your treatment with you and will give advice about what to do when you get home. What is a sigmoid colectomy? This operation involves removing the sigmoid colon, which lies on the left side of your abdominal cavity (tummy). We would then normally join the remaining left colon to the top of the rectum (the ‘storage’ organ of the bowel). The lines on the attached diagram show the piece of bowel being removed. This operation is done with you asleep (general anaesthetic). The operation not only removes the bowel containing the tumour but also removes the draining lymph glands from this part of the bowel. This is sent to the pathologists who will then analyse each bit of the bowel and the lymph glands in detail under the microscope. This operation can often be completed in a ‘keyhole’ manner, which means less trauma to the abdominal muscles, as the biggest wound is the one to remove the bowel from the abdomen. Sometimes, this is not possible, in which case the same operation is done through a bigger incision in the abdominal wall – this is called an ‘open’ operation. It does take longer to recover with an open operation but, if it is necessary, it is the safest thing to do.

This guide should not be used to seek help in a medical emergency. If you experience a medical emergency, seek medical treatment in person immediately. Life After Ostomy Surgery As a person who lives with an ostomy, I understand the importance of support and encouragement in those days, weeks, and even months after ostomy surgery. I also know the richness of life, and what it means to continue living my life as a happy and productive person. Can I shower? Can I swim? Can I still exercise? Will I still have a healthy love life? These are the questions that crossed my mind as I laid in my bed recovering from ostomy surgery. In the weeks following, I quickly discovered the answer to all of these questions for me was YES! I was the person who would empower myself to take the necessary steps and move forward past my stoma. Those who cared for and loved me would be there to support me through my progress and recovery. Everyone will have a different journey. There will be highs, and there will be lows. Although our experiences will differ, I encourage you to embrace the opportunity for a new beginning and not fear it. Remember that resources and support are available to you — you are not alone. Our experiences shape our character and allow us to grow as people. Try and grow from this experience and embrace the world around you.

It consists of the mouth, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine, rectum, and anus .When we swallow our food, it passes into the esophagus which connects the mouth and the stomach . Once food enters the stomach, it is broken down into liquid form before moving on to the small intestine . By the time food enters into the small intestine, it is mostly liquid .The small intestine is a series of hollow loops measuring approximately 22 feet long .The small intestine’s job is to absorb nutrients that will fuel our bodies .After leaving the small intestine, what remains enters the large intestine which is also known as the colon .In the colon, most of the liquid is absorbed, leaving human waste (also called stool) behind .

    cancer.org | 1.800.227.2345 Ileostomy Guide Ileostomy surgery is done for many different diseases and problems. Some conditions that can lead to ileostomy surgery include ulcerative colitis, Crohn’s disease, familial polyposis, and cancer. Sometimes an ileostomy is only needed for a short time (temporary), or it may be needed for the rest of a person's life (permanent). For the thousands of people who have serious digestive diseases, an ileostomy can be the start of a new and healthier life. If you’ve had a chronic (long-term) problem or a life- threatening disease like cancer, you can look forward to feeling better after you recover from ileostomy surgery. You can also look forward to returning to most, if not all of the activities you enjoyed in the past. This guide will help you better understand ileostomy – what it is, why it’s needed, how it affects the normal digestive system1, and what changes it brings to a person’s life. ● What Is an Ileostomy? ● Types of Ileostomies and Pouching Systems ● Caring for an Ileostomy What Is an Ileostomy? An ileostomy is an opening in the belly (abdominal wall) that’s made during surgery. It's usually needed because a problem is causing the ileum to not work properly, or a disease is affecting that part of the colon and it needs to be removed. The end of the ileum (the lowest part of the small intestine) is brought through this opening to form a 1 ____________________________________________________________________________________American Cancer Society cancer.org | 1.800.227.2345 stoma, usually on the lower right side of the abdomen.

  • Current Status of Intestinal Transplantation
    Gut: first published as 10.1136/gut.30.12.1771 on 1 December 1989. Downloaded from Gut, 1989, 30, 1771-1782 Progress report Current status of intestinal transplantation The successful development of clinical intestinal transplantation remains an exciting challenge for the transplant surgeon, immunologist, and gastro- enterologist. Bowel transplantation was first attempted in 1901 by Carrel who transplanted portions of small intestine into the neck of dogs.' Interest was rekindled in 1959 when Lillehei showed that autotransplantation of the small intestine into the dog was feasible.' Despite recent major improve- ments in techniques, however, and the introduction of new immuno- suppressive regimens which have seen the flourishing of liver, heart, heart/ lung and pancreatic transplant programmes, the clinical results of small intestinal transplantation remain dismal. Two major problems confront us; first, the complex immunological phenomena occurring after small bowel transplantation, which include both classical graft rejection and graft versus host disease, do not appear to be easily controlled by current immunosuppressive protocols, and require elaborate treatment of both graft and host.-' Second, the physiological functions of the graft are severely deranged by the process of transplantation and further immunological damage will not only hamper recovery but destroy the barrier functions so vital to recipient survival. http://gut.bmj.com/ A series of clinical intestinal transplants were performed in the early 1970s by several institutions, with only one survivor beyond two weeks. More recently small intestinal transplants have been carried out in several major transplant centres in Europe and North America and two European recipients have survived beyond six months (personal communication).

  • Review on Lithotripsy and Cavitation in Urinary Stone Therapy Morteza Ghorbani, Ozlem Oral, Sinan Ekici, Devrim Gozuacik, and Ali Kos¸Ar

Depending on the frequency, the level of changes in pressure as a consequence of mechanical acoustical energy and/or pressure can be targeted to the desired forces. It is mostly an undesirable phenomenon. Although the elimination of cavitation is a major topic in the study area, thereby enabling the use of ultrasound in therapeutic appli- of fluid dynamics, its destructive nature could be exploited cations. Because of its ability to exert localized energy from sur- for therapeutic applications. Ultrasonic and hydrodynamic face of the skin into soft tissues, ultrasound has attracted much sources are two main origins for generating cavitation.
