Tryksår opstår på plejehjem
Udefunktion. Et projekt i Københavnsområdet viste, at plejehjems beboeres tryksår oftest var opstået på plejehjemmet. Det afdækkede også, at plejehjemmene kun i begrænset omfang havde de nødvendige sårbehandlings- og aflastningsmaterialer til rådighed. Med støtte fra en sygeplejerske fra Videncenter for Sårheling kunne tryksårene udmærket behandles i plejeboligen.måsjekke
Role of Laser Resection in Pulmonary Metastasectomy
Objectives This review presents laser resection as treatment option in pulmonary metastasectomy and summarizes the current evidence. Moreover, it includes the comparison of laser resection and common techniques used in lung metastasectomy. Methods We performed a systematic literature research in Medline and the Cochrane library to detect case series and even randomized trials. All included studies underwent qualitative analysis. Results Laser metastasectomy is a safe procedure. Data regarding relevant clinical end points as hospitalization, duration of chest tube drainage and long-term survival are heterogeneous and still controversial. Laser enucleation decreases the resection volume. Therefore, it leads to a significant reduction of parenchymal loss. Survival rates after laser metastasectomy are equal to the outcome after resection using other techniques. Conclusions Laser resection is a parenchyma-sparing method. Hence, it offers radical metastasectomy even in case of multiple pulmonary lesions or impaired lung capacity
