Surgical Equipment

01/01/1999 - "These changes are due to the realization that, for some cancers, more extensive surgical procedures are not more beneficial, to improvements in radiation therapy and chemotherapy, to the availability of better noninvasive or less invasive diagnostic and therapeutic techniques, and to improved surgical equipment (such as videoscopic surgery)."
05/01/1987 - "[Qualitative improvement of the surgical treatment of cancer using laser equipment--surgical technic after photodynamic therapy]."
05/01/2014 - "Study variables recorded were the following: preoperative data (time taken to assemble equipment, surgical time, quality of pneumorectum), postoperative morbidity and mortality, pathology study of the tumors, and economic analysis. "
08/08/2023 - "Laparoscopic partial nephrectomy (LPN) after hyperselective embolization of tumor vessels (HETV) in a hybrid operating room (HOR) that combines traditional surgical equipment with advanced imaging technology, is a non-clamping surgical approach to treat localized kidney tumors that has shown promising short-term results. "
01/01/2020 - "To better facilitate the integration of new surgical equipment into the armamentarium of a thriving pediatric neurosurgery practice by describing the use of a three-dimensional (3D)-printed patient model with in situ 3D-printed tumor for presurgical positioning and trajectory optimization in the stereotactic biopsy of a pontine lesion in a pediatric patient. "

01/01/2013 - "While the extranasal approach is still a part of the treatment concept for removing osteomas; over the last years, in suitable cases, the endoscopically controlled endonasal approach has greatly gained importance due to the improved surgical equipment and experience."
04/01/2011 - "While the extranasal approach is still a part of the treatment concept for removing osteomas at this localization, over the last years the endoscopically controlled endonasal approach has greatly gained in importance due to the improved surgical equipment. "

08/01/2018 - "Improved training of surgeons was the top-ranked item, followed by utilisation of biometry, surgical equipment availability, effective monitoring of outcomes of cataract surgery by the surgeon, and well-trained support staff for the cataract pathway (including nurses seeing post-operative cases). "
03/01/2006 - "Standardization of protocols for reprocessing of cataract surgical equipment may prevent outbreaks of TASS and may be of assistance during outbreak investigations."
03/01/2006 - "Suboptimal reprocessing of cataract surgical equipment may evolve over time in busy, multidisciplinary surgical centers. "
03/01/2006 - "Results of an initial investigation suggested that cataract surgical equipment may have been contaminated by suboptimal equipment reprocessing or as a result of personnel changes. "
02/01/1998 - "aeruginosa was isolated from the internal tubing system of automated cataract surgical equipment. "

12/01/2015 - "Factors that have made this possible for patients are improved surgical equipment, volatile anesthetic improvement, ultrasound-guided regional techniques, non-narcotic adjuncts for pain control, and the minimization of PONV. "

02/01/2023 - "With improved surgical equipment and the continuous development of surgical techniques, various surgical strategies for controlling the dorsal vascular complex (DVC) during RP have been investigated, which affect intraoperative blood loss, postoperative tumour control and postoperative urinary and sexual function.
