MedStaff Update: April 2015

Endovascular Treatment Improves Outcomes for Ischemic Stroke

For years, the guiding principle surrounding stroke survival and recovery has been "time is brain." Standard therapy was limited to administering clot-busting medicine with varying degrees of success. But advanced imaging and improved endovascular clot removal techniques are extending the treatment window to six hours and beyond.

Microvascular Reconstruction Improves Results for Head and Neck Cancers

For patients with head and neck cancers, treatment once meant facial disfigurement and the inability to talk or eat. But microvascular reconstruction has improved patient outcomes tremendously. Today, surgeons can transplant skin, muscle, fat and bone from one part of a patient's body to repair the void left by cancer, giving patients not just survival, but a functioning tongue and jaw.

Alexis Reeves, RN, CPHRM, CLNC, Interim Director of Patient Safety Operations, discusses unintentionally retained foreign objects (URFO). "What comes to mind are the surgical sponges and instruments inadvertently left in a body cavity after surgery," she says. "Today, guidewires left behind from starting central lines are a more likely scenario."
