Rate Of Surface Contamination In The Operating Suite During Revision Total Joint Arthroplasty, Matthew J. Dietz, Phillip A. Bostian, Emily P. Ernest, Adam E. Klein, P. Rocco Lasala, Benjamin M. Frye, Brock A. Lindsey

Faculty & Staff Scholarship

Background

This study estimated operating room surface contamination rates during aseptic vs septic total joint arthroplasty and evaluated the similarity between clinically infecting organisms and those isolated from contaminated surfaces.

Methods

Patients undergoing total hip and knee revision arthroplasties were identified, and surface and tissue samples were collected. Cases were classified aseptic or septic based on Musculoskeletal Infection Society criteria for prosthetic joint infection. Positive surface cultures were compared with intraoperative tissue cultures. Positive cultures were speciated and tested for antimicrobial sensitivity.

Results

Samples were collected from 31 aseptic and 18 septic cases. Patients had similar demographics and time to …

The Effect Of Saline Flush After Rocuronium Bolus On The Proportion Of Patients With Excellent Intubating Conditions In Adult Patients Undergoing Elective Surgery At Akuh-N, Ian Odari

Master of Medicine in Anaesthesiology

Background: In emergency surgeries requiring endotracheal intubation, the time to effect of neuromuscular blocking drugs is a crucial time in which patients are predisposed to hypoxia and aspiration into the lungs. Various strategies have been undertaken to shorten this time, including the timing and the priming techniques, dose changes and use of a flush following the muscle relaxant. All these methods had positive results but some are associated with side effects. The effectiveness of a muscle relaxant can either be assessed using the train of four or intubating conditions on the Goldberg scale. In this study, the plan is to …

The Effect Of Premedication With Intravenous Lornoxicam On Propofol Injection Pain At Induction Of General Anaesthesia In Adults: A Randomised Placebo-Controlled Trial, Dennis Omari Onyancha

Master of Medicine in Anaesthesiology

Background: Propofol is widely used for the induction and maintenance of general anaesthesia and offers many key attractive pharmacological qualities that make it suitable for these indications. However, pain on injection is one of its major drawbacks and can be very distressing to patients. There is a paucity of studies that have looked at the effect of lornoxicam on propofol injection pain either as a sole intervention or in combination with any other method. Primary objective: To determine whether premedication with intravenous lornoxicam had any effect on the intensity of propofol injection pain at induction of general anaesthesia in adult …

Oxytocin, Dopamine, And The Neuromodulation Of Mating Behavior In C. Elegans, Meghan Aileen Lockard

Student Theses and Dissertations

In the four modalities of analysis that Tinbergen describes: mechanistic, ontological, functional, and phylogenetic, I look at both the "how" and the "why" of oxytocin as a releaser of reproductive behavior. To do so, I take the wide view across 600 million years of metazoan evolution, focusing on the oxytocin-mediated mating behavior and physiology of the often-overlooked invertebrates. By looking to these simpler animals with both smaller, paired-down nervous systems and more diverse sets of mating strategies, I elucidate some of the basic and general principles of the oxytocin circuit (Chapter I). In Chapter II, I give a survey of …

A Wto If You Can Keep It, Steve Charnovitz

GW Law Faculty Publications & Other Works

Recalling how the free trader Benjamin Franklin pondered whether politics in America would be able to keep the republic he had helped to create, this essay looks at whether politics in the world will now be able to keep the World Trade Organization (WTO) in the face of the ongoing attacks by the US government. The essay makes several theoretical contributions: (1) to debunk the Trump Administration's arguments that there is a trade-off between American sovereignty and global governance by showing that this is a false dichotomy; (2) to identify the key design features of specialized international organizations that are …

Ecological Pleiotropy And Indirect Effects Alter The Potential For Evolutionary Rescue, John P. Delong, Jonathan Belmaker

School of Biological Sciences: Faculty Publications

Invading predators can negatively affect naïve prey populations due to a lack of evolved defenses. Many species therefore may be at risk of extinction due to overexploitation by exotic predators. Yet the strong selective effect of predation might drive evolution of imperiled prey toward more resistant forms, potentially allowing the prey to persist. We evaluated the potential for evolutionary rescue in an imperiled prey using Gillespie eco‐evolutionary models (GEMs). We focused on a system parameterized for protists where changes in prey body size may influence intrinsic rate of population growth, space clearance rate (initial slope of the functional response), and …

First Amendment Law—Free Speech And Higher Education: Can Public Colleges And Universities Use “Safe Space” Policies To Restrict Speech On Campuses?, John L. Magistro Iv

Western New England Law Review

The freedom to speak openly, without fear of reprisal, is one of the great defining characteristics of our country. Nowhere is this freedom more crucial than the arena of higher education. Whether seeking a degree in the arts or sciences, philosophy or physics, students who venture off to college share one thing in common—their thirst for knowledge. However, this pursuit of knowledge can, and does, cause students to confront unfamiliar, uncomfortable, and sometimes unpleasant material. In college classrooms, cafeterias, and quads across the country, students have begun seeking shelter from thoughts and ideas that might make them uncomfortable. Lately, these …

2019 Faculty Bibliography

This study investigates public receptivity to celebrity's climate change advocacy on YouTube through a semantic network analysis.

This study found that most of viewers were polarized in their judgment and attitude toward the celebrity advocate either positively or negatively. This study offers an exploratory examination of the perceived star power and the role of celebrities as spokespersons for social causes. This study contributes to the …
