1. 1. Obesity and Common Surgical Disorders, Effects on Incidence and Complications

   Författare :Anders Rosemar; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Obesity; complications; BMI; diverticular disease; groin hernia; postoperative complications; groin hernia repair; surgery; incidence;

   Sammanfattning : Background: Overweight and obesity are becoming increasingly common, not only in the developed countries but also in developing countries. It is well documented that obesity increases the risk of several medical disorders; however, less is known of effects of obesity on common surgical disorders and treatments. LÄS MER

3. 2. Acute pancreatitis - severity classification, complications and outcome

   Författare :Bodil Andersson; Lund Kirurgi; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; quality of life; costs; exocrine function; endocrine function; risk factors; acute pancreatitis; mortality; severity classification; artificial neural networks; pancreatic pseudocysts; treatment; complications; outcome; long-term follow-up;

   Sammanfattning : Acute pancreatitis, with an annual incidence of approximately 35 per 100 000 inhabitants in Sweden, is in most cases mild and self-limiting. Severe acute pancreatitis, affecting 10-15% of the cases is, however, associated with severe complications and even death. LÄS MER

4. 3. Pulmonary Atelectasis in General Anaesthesia : Clinical Studies on the Counteracting Effects of Positive End-Expiratory Pressure

   Författare :Erland Östberg; Mats Enlund; Lennart Edmark; Sophie Lindgren; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; General anaesthesia; pulmonary atelectasis; positive end-expiratory pressure; oxygen; computed tomography; continuous positive airway pressure; mechanical ventilation; Anestesiologi och intensivvård; Anaesthesiology and Intensive Care;

   Sammanfattning : Partial lung collapse, i.e., pulmonary atelectasis, is common during general anaesthesia. The main causal mechanism is reduced lung volume with airway closure and subsequent gas absorption from preoxygenated alveoli. LÄS MER

5. 4. Perioperative complications in obese patients : A thesis on risk reducing strategies

   Författare :Fredrik Ander; Lars Berggren; Rebecca Ahlstrand; Alex de Leon; Johan Raeder; Örebro universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Intubation time; videolaryngoscopy; obesity; esophagogastric junction; remifentanil; esmolol; high-resolution manometry; pulmonary aspiration; postoperative pain; postoperative opioid-sparing;

   Sammanfattning : Aspiration of gastric content and delayed or failed intubation are the leading causes of anesthesia-related mortality and morbidity. In the recovery period, airway obstruction with subsequent hypoxia is a relatively common cause of morbidity, and is highly associated to the amount of opioids administered, especially in obese patients.

7. 5. Pulmonary complications after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation

   Författare :Ulrica Forslöw; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : The respiratory tract is one of the most common and serious sites for complications in HSCT patients. In this project the incidence, outcome, and risk factors for patients with infectious or non-infectious pulmonary complications were studied. Bronchoscopy and pulmonary function tests (PFTs) were evaluated as diagnostic tools. LÄS MER
