Predicting inpatient stay lasting 2 midnights or longer after robotic surgery for endometrial cancer.

Journal of minimally invasive gynecology
OBJECTIVE: To estimate the rate of inpatient stay and the factors predicting inpatient status after robotic surgery for endometrial cancer following the change in the Medicare definition of "inpatient" to include hospitalization spanning 2 midnights.

Predictive modelling of survival and length of stay in critically ill patients using sequential organ failure scores.

Artificial intelligence in medicine
INTRODUCTION: The length of stay of critically ill patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) is an indication of patient ICU resource usage and varies considerably. Planning of postoperative ICU admissions is important as ICUs often have no nonoccupi...

Outcomes of Extraperitoneal Robot-Assisted Radical Prostatectomy in the Morbidly Obese: A Propensity Score-Matched Study.

Journal of endourology
INTRODUCTION: An increasing number of obese patients (body mass index [BMI] >30 kg/m(2)]) with localized prostate cancer are presenting as candidates for robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP), which can be carried out using the transperitoneal ...

Minimally invasive surgery for endometrial cancer: a comprehensive review.

Archives of gynecology and obstetrics
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: The objective of this article is to review the recently published literature on the use of minimally invasive surgical approaches for patients with endometrial cancer.

Distal pancreatectomy: a single institution's experience in open, laparoscopic, and robotic approaches.

Journal of the American College of Surgeons
BACKGROUND: The indications for minimally invasive (MIS) pancreatectomy have slowly increased as experience, techniques, and technology have improved and evolved to manage malignant lesions in selected patients without compromising safety and oncolog...

Robotic right colectomy with intracorporeal anastomosis compared with laparoscopic right colectomy with extracorporeal and intracorporeal anastomosis: a retrospective multicentre study.

Surgical endoscopy
BACKGROUND: Growing evidence suggests that the intracorporeal fashioning of an anastomosis after a laparoscopic right colectomy may offer several advantages. However, due to the difficulty of the intracorporeal technique, laparoscopic extracorporeal ...

Short-term results after robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy compared to open radical prostatectomy.

European urology
BACKGROUND: Robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy has become a widespread technique despite a lack of randomised trials showing its superiority over open radical prostatectomy.
