Journal ArticleDOI
A meta-analysis of prehospital care times for trauma.
TL;DR: National averages for prehospital times for trauma patients transported by helicopter and ground ambulance over a 30-year period are determined so that policymakers can compare individual emergency medical systems to national norms.
Journal ArticleDOI
An acute care surgery model improves outcomes in patients with appendicitis.
Angela S. Earley,John P. Pryor,Patrick K. Kim,Joseph H. Hedrick,Jibby E. Kurichi,Amy C. Minogue,Seema S. Sonnad,Patrick M. Reilly,C. W. Schwab +8 more
TL;DR: In patients with acute appendicitis, the presence of an in-house acute care surgeon significantly decreased the time to operation, rupture rate, complication rate, and hospital length of stay.
Journal ArticleDOI
Abdominal compartment syndrome in the open abdomen.
Vicente H. Gracias,Benjamin M. Braslow,Jon Johnson,John P. Pryor,Rajan Gupta,Patrick M. Reilly,C. William Schwab +6 more
TL;DR: Management of the open abdomen with the temporary abdominal closure does not prevent the development of abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS), and severe physiologic derangement and high crystalloid requirements may predict which patients will develop ACS.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pelvic radiography in blunt trauma resuscitation: a diminishing role.
Oscar D. Guillamondegui,John P. Pryor,Vincente H. Gracias,Rajan Gupta,Patrick M. Reilly,C. William Schwab +5 more
TL;DR: The PXR has limited sensitivity for detecting pelvic fractures compared with CT scanning and may continue to be beneficial in unstable patients, those with positive physical findings, or those who cannot undergo CT scanning because of other clinical priorities.
Journal ArticleDOI
Respiratory complications and mortality risk associated with thoracic spine injury.
Bryan A. Cotton,John P. Pryor,Imtiaz Chinwalla,Douglas J. Wiebe,Patrick M. Reilly,C. William Schwab +5 more
TL;DR: Compared with patients with low thoracic SCI or thoracolumbar fractures, patients with HT-SCI have an increased risk of pneumonia and death.
