Parastomal hernia: an overview
Br J Nurs. 2023 Sep 7;32(16):S22-S30. doi: 10.12968/bjon.2023.32.16.S22.ABSTRACTParastomal hernia (PH) is one of the most frequent ostomy complications, and the reported incidence in the literature is highly variable. As highlighted by the Association of Stoma Care Nurses UK, this complication develops mainly in children and older men over 70, but many predisposing factors are related to the individual patient and surgery. There is no standardised system for assessing PH. The main assessment techniques include objective examination, ultrasound scan and computed tomography. Prevention is based on various interventions by su...

Ultrasound-guided interventions in primary carpal tunnel syndrome: perineural injection to thread carpal tunnel release
Br J Radiol. 2023 Sep 3:20230552. doi: 10.1259/bjr.20230552. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTCarpal tunnel syndrome (CTS), the most common entrapment neuropathy, is compression of the median nerve deep to transverse carpal ligament at wrist. Ultrasonography and electrophysiological study are complementary in the diagnosis and grading of CTS in appropriate clinical settings. The initial management of patients with CTS is conservative with medical therapy and splinting. However, surgical interventions are indicated in patients in whom medical management has failed. With evolution of the concept of safe zone on ultrasonography ...

The kinetic quantitative characteristics of non-mass breast lesions with contrast-enhanced ultrasound: a prospective study
CONCLUSIONS: The results suggested that hyper-enhancement and rapid wash-in and wash-out are the characteristics of malignant NMLs. The kinetic analysis using CEUS can reflect hypervascular nature of malignant NMLs, thus improving the diagnostic performance combined with grayscale ultrasound.ADVANCES IN KNOWLEDGE: In this study, we quantified the enhancement characteristics of non-mass breast lesions with CEUS. We revealed that the combination of CEUS and conventional ultrasound provided higher sensitivity for diagnosing malignant NMLs.PMID:37660395 | DOI:10.1259/bjr.20221002

Evaluation of extended-length cannula inserted using ultrasound guidance in patients with difficult IV access
This article reports on the results of introducing extended-length PIVCs, inserted using ultrasound guidance in patients with DIVA by a vascular access team. This began in 2019, across an adult tertiary hospital setting in the NHS with about 750 beds. The specialties at this hospital include, but are not limited to, emergency medicine; head and neck; vascular; diabetes and endocrinology; respiratory; care of the older person; stroke services; gastroenterology; and trauma and orthopaedics. The vascular access team recorded 1485 individual insertions between 2019 to 2022, with a mean dwell time of 6 days, a first attempt suc...

Ultrasound-guided PIVC insertion: a randomised controlled trial protocol
Br J Nurs. 2023 Jul 27;32(14):S22-S28. doi: 10.12968/bjon.2023.32.14.S22.ABSTRACTUltrasound-guided insertion of peripheral intravenous catheters (PIVCs) is an alternative to traditional anatomical landmark-based insertion. However, data on its performance in paediatric patients of varying levels of difficult intravenous access are limited. The researchers hypothesise that ultrasound-guided PIVC insertion will increase first-attempt success compared with landmark technique. This randomised, parallel-group, single-centre, superiority trial commenced recruiting in July 2021, including hospitalised children (aged 0 (>37 wee...
