    The effect of lateral position on oxygenation in ARDS patients: A pilot study
    (2006-11-01) Surat Tongyoo; Warakarn Vilaichone; Ranistha Ratanarat; Chairat Permpikul; Mahidol University
    Background: The effect of body position on oxygenation in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) patients has long been known. Prone position improves the PaO2 in 60-70% of ARDS patients. However, the effect of the lateral positions, which... are used in routine critical care, has never been reported. Objective: To determine whether placing the patient in a lateral position has any effect on oxygenation in ARDS. Material and Method: Prospective observational study, comparing oxygenation in ARDS

    Perioperative and Radiographic Outcomes Between Single-Position Surgery (Lateral Decubitus) and Dual-Position Surgery for Lateral Lumbar Interbody Fusion and Percutaneous Pedicle Screw Fixation: Meta-Analysis
    (2022-01-01) Keorochana G.; Muljadi J.A.; Kongtharvonskul J.; Mahidol University
    Objective: Lateral lumbar interbody fusion (LLIF) and percutaneous posterior screw fixation (PPSF) techniques is used to treat degenerative lumbar pathologies. Dual-position (DP) lumbar surgery involves repositioning the patient from the supine... or lateral decubitus position to prone for posterior fixation. Single-position (SP) lumbar surgery is commonly performed nowadays, a minimally invasive alternative performed entirely from the lateral decubitus position. However, controversy still exists

    Comparison of standard and modified prone positioning for lateral lumbar spine fusion: a feasibility study to reduce lumbar plexus injury
    (2023-12-25) Chumnanvej S.; Lekcharoensombat N.; Chumnanvej S.; Mahidol University
    Single-prone-lateral (PL) positioning is a new technique that allows for simultaneous anterior and posterior lumbar spine surgery. However, there is a concern regarding the risk of lumbar plexus injury in PL positioning. This study compared the risk... of lumbar plexus damage and the overall safety profile of a modified PL (mPL) position to the standard PL (sPL) position for lateral lumbar spine fusion surgery. A crossover soft cadaveric study was conducted with two raters examining the comparative

    Anesthesiology trainees performing flexible scope intubation in spontaneously breathing patients in the left lateral position and the supine position: a prospective randomized trial
    (2022-12-01) Charoenkoop P.; Luetrakool P.; Puttapornpattana T.; Sangdee N.; Mahidol University
    Background: Flexible scope intubation is an important airway management skill that requires hands-on training in a real airway. We compared flexible scope intubation by trainees between patients in the left lateral and supine positions. Methods... randomly assigned to be intubated in one of two positions: supine (Group S) or left lateral (Group L). Trainees performed flexible scope intubation in sedated patients under the supervision of an attending anesthesiologist. Intubation success, time

    Complications prevention of shoulder balance support device for lateral decubitus position: A randomized controlled trial
    (2023-01-01) Piyasoontrawong N.; Sirisreetreerux P.; Kochakarn W.; Mahidol University
    Objectives: The authors invented the shoulder balance support device aiming to prevent skin complications and neck pain in surgical patients operated in lateral decubitus position. This study aimed to compare skin complications and neck pain between... Trials(CONSORT) statement, was conducted in patients who underwent laparoscopic upper urinary tract surgery in the lateral decubitus position from June 2019 to March 2021. The shoulder balance support device was used in 22 patients and 22 other patients

    Modified Semilateral Decubitus Position for Shoulder Arthroscopy and Its Application for Open Surgery of the Shoulder (One Setting for All Shoulder Procedures)
    (2018-04-01) Ekavit Keyurapan; Chaiwat Chuaychoosakoon; Mahidol University; Prince of Songkla University
    © 2017 Arthroscopy Association of North America Two standard patient positions for shoulder arthroscopy are the beach-chair and lateral decubitus positions. Both positions have advantages and disadvantages in many aspects. Surgeons choose... the position based on their preferences, mainly the orientation of the anatomy. If an operation needs to be converted to an open procedure, a patient who is placed in the lateral decubitus position might need to undergo repositioning and re-draping, which

    Factors that predict recurrence later than 5 years after initial treatment in operable breast cancer
    (2016-08-24) Pattaraporn Wangchinda; Suthinee Ithimakin; Mahidol University
    cancers recurred between 2005 and 2013, of whom 180 had recurrence within 5 years of diagnosis and 120 later than 5 years (median time to recurrence: 45.43 months; range: 4.4-250.3 months). Tumors larger than 2 cm, lymph node metastasis, and high nuclear... grade were related with early recurrence. Estrogen receptor-positive, progesterone receptor-positive, and HER2-disease predicted late recurrence. Almost all late-relapsing patients with luminal tumors had high estrogen receptor (ER+) titers (≥50

    and incubated further for 7 days. However, identifying B. pseudomallei on the agar plates among other soil microbes requires expertise and experience. Here, we evaluate a lateral flow immunoassay (LFI) developed to detect B. pseudomallei capsular polysaccharide... on the LFI, and colony counts to determine quantity of B. pseudomallei in the broth were performed. We found that all five soil specimens inoculated at 10 CFU were negative by LFI on day 2, but four of those five specimens were LFI positive on day 7. The LOD
