Preliminary Normative Standards of the Mayo Clinic Esophagectomy CONDUIT Tool.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

To collect patient-reported outcomes after esophagectomy to establish a set of preliminary normative standards to aid in symptom-score interpretation.

Patients and methods

Patients undergoing esophagectomy often have little understanding about postoperative symptom management. The Mayo Clinic esophageal CONDUIT tool is a validated questionnaire comprising 5 multi-item symptom-assessment domains and 2 health-assessment domains. A prospective nonrandomized cohort study was conducted on adult patients who have had esophagectomies using the CONDUIT tool from August 17, 2015, to July 30, 2018 (NCT02530983). The Statistical Analysis System v9.4 (SAS Institute Inc., Cary, NC) was used to calculate and analyze the scores.

Results

Over the study period, 569 patients were assessed for eligibility, and 241 patients consented and were offered the tool. Of these, 188 patients (median age: 65 years; range: 24 to 87 years; 80% male patients) had calculable scores. Of the 188 patients, 50 (26.6%) patients were identified as potential beneficiaries for educational intervention to improve symptoms (received moderate scores for a domain), and 131 (69.7%) patients were identified as needing further testing or provider intervention (received poor scores for a domain) based on the tool.

Conclusion

The CONDUIT tool scores, when compared with standardized scales with established preliminary normative scores, could be used to identify and triage patients who need targeted education, further testing, or provider interventions. These score ranges will serve as the first set of normative standards to aid in the interpretation of conduit performance among providers and patients.

Mayo Clinic VT calculator: A practical tool for accurate wide complex tachycardia differentiation.

Project description:The discrimination of ventricular tachycardia (VT) versus supraventricular wide complex tachycardia (SWCT) via 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) is crucial for achieving appropriate, high-quality, and cost-effective care in patients presenting with wide QRS complex tachycardia (WCT). Decades of rigorous research have brought forth an expanding arsenal of applicable manual algorithm methods for differentiating WCTs. However, these algorithms are limited by their heavy reliance on the ECG interpreter for their proper execution. Herein, we introduce the Mayo Clinic ventricular tachycardia calculator (MC-VTcalc) as a novel generalizable, accurate, and easy-to-use means to estimate VT probability independent of ECG interpreter competency. The MC-VTcalc, through the use of web-based and mobile device platforms, only requires the entry of computerized measurements (i.e., QRS duration, QRS axis, and T-wave axis) that are routinely displayed on standard 12-lead ECG recordings.

Mayo Clinic Zebrafish Facility Overview.

Project description:The zebrafish (Danio rerio) is a premier nonmammalian vertebrate model organism. This small aquatic fish is utilized in multiple disciplines in the Mayo Clinic community and by many laboratories around the world because of its biological similarity to humans, its advanced molecular genetics, the elucidation of its genome sequence, and the ever-expanding and outstanding new biological tools now available to the zebrafish researcher. The Mayo Clinic Zebrafish Facility (MCZF) houses ?2,000 tanks annotated using an in-house, Internet cloud-based bar-coding system tied to our established zfishbook.org web infrastructure. Paramecia are the primary food source for larval fish rearing, using a simplified culture protocol described herein. The MCZF supports the specific ongoing research in a variety of laboratories, while also serving as a local hub for new scientists as they learn to tap into the potential of this model system for understanding normal development, disease, and as models of health.

Acute gastric conduit dilation after minimally invasive esophagectomy: a 10-year experience.

Project description:Despite decreasing overall morbidity with minimally invasive esophagectomy (MIE), conduit functional outcomes related to delayed emptying remain challenging, especially in the immediate postoperative setting. Yet, this problem has not been described well in the literature. Utilizing a single institutional prospective database, 254 patients who underwent MIEs between 2012 and 2020 were identified. Gastric conduit dilation was defined as a conduit occupying >40% of the hemithorax on the postoperative chest X-ray. Sixty-seven patients (26.4%) demonstrated acute conduit dilation. There was a higher incidence of conduit dilation in the patients who underwent Ivor Lewis esophagectomy compared to those with a neck anastomosis (67.2% vs. 47.1%; P = 0.03). Patients with dilated conduits required more esophagogastroduodenoscopies (EGD) (P < 0.001), conduit-related reoperations within 180 days (P < 0.001), and 90-day readmissions (P = 0.01). Furthermore, in 37 patients (25.5%) undergoing Ivor Lewis esophagectomy, we returned to the abdomen after intrathoracic anastomosis to reduce redundant conduit and pexy the conduit to the crura. While conduit dilation rates were similar, those who had intraabdominal gastropexy required EGD significantly less and trended toward a lower incidence of conduit-related reoperations (5.6% vs. 2.7%). Multivariable analysis also demonstrated that conduit dilation was an independent predictor for delayed gastric conduit emptying symptoms, EGD within 90 days, conduit-related reoperation within 180 days, and 30-day as well as 90-day readmission. Patients undergoing MIE with acute gastric conduit dilation require more endoscopic interventions and reoperations.

Optimizing Door-to-Groin Puncture Time: The Mayo Clinic Experience.

Project description:ObjectivesTo provide a better understanding of methods that can be used to improve patient outcomes by reducing the door-to-groin puncture (DTP) time and present the results of a stroke quality improvement project (QIP) conducted by Mayo Clinic Arizona's stroke center.MethodsWe conducted a systematic literature search of Ovid MEDLINE(R), Ovid EMBASE, Scopus, and Web of Science for studies that evaluated DTP time reduction strategies. Those determined eligible for the purpose of this analysis were assessed for quality. The strategies for DTP time reduction were categorized on the basis of modified Target: Stroke Phase III recommendations and analyzed using a meta-analysis. The Mayo Clinic QIP implemented a single-call activation system to reduce DTP times by decreasing the time from neurosurgery notification to case start.ResultsFourteen studies were selected for the analysis, consisting of 2277 patients with acute ischemic stroke secondary to large-vessel occlusions. After intervention, all the studies showed a reduction in the DTP time, with the pooled DTP improvement being the standardized mean difference (1.37; 95% confidence interval, 1.20-1.93; τ2=1.09; P<.001). The Mayo Clinic QIP similarly displayed a DTP time reduction, with the DTP time dropping from 125.1 to 82.5 minutes after strategy implementation.ConclusionComputed tomography flow modifications produced the largest and most consistent reduction in the DTP time. However, the reduction in the DTP time across all the studies suggests that any systematic protocol aimed at reducing the DTP time can produce a beneficial effect. The relative novelty of mechanical thrombectomy and the consequential lack of research call for future investigation into the efficacy of varying DTP time reduction strategies.

Deep Brain Stimulator Device Infection: The Mayo Clinic Rochester Experience.

Project description:BackgroundDeep brain stimulator (DBS)-related infection is a recognized complication that may significantly alter the course of DBS therapy. We describe the Mayo Clinic Rochester experience with DBS-related infections.MethodsThis was a retrospective study of all adults (≥18 years old) who underwent DBS-related procedures between 2000 and 2020 at the Mayo Clinic Rochester.ResultsThere were 1087 patients who underwent 1896 procedures. Infection occurred in 57/1112 (5%) primary DBS implantations and 16/784 (2%) revision surgeries. The median time to infection (interquartile range) was 2.1 (0.9-6.9) months. The odds of infection were higher with longer operative length (P = .002), higher body mass index (BMI; P = .006), male sex (P = .041), and diabetes mellitus (P = .002). The association between infection and higher BMI (P = .002), male sex (P = .016), and diabetes mellitus (P = .003) remained significant in a subgroup analysis of primary implantations but not revision surgeries. Infection was superficial in 17 (23%) and deep in 56 (77%) cases. Commonly identified pathogens were Staphylococcus aureus (65%), coagulase-negative staphylococci (43%), and Cutibacterium acnes (45%). Three device management approaches were identified: 39 (53%) had complete device explantation, 20 (27%) had surgical intervention with device retention, and 14 (19%) had medical management alone. Treatment failure occurred in 16 (23%) patients. Time-to-event analysis showed fewer treatment failures with complete device explantation (P = .015). Only 1 individual had complications with brain abscess at failure.ConclusionsPrimary DBS implantations had higher rates of infection compared with revision surgeries. Complete device explantation was favored for deep infections. However, device salvage was commonly attempted and is a reasonable approach in select cases given the low rate of complications.
