Tijdens deze leeractiviteit worden het volgende besproken: de incidentie en prevalentie van symptomatische galstenen, de belangrijkste chirurgische technieken die zijn ontwikkeld om een veilige verwijdering van de galblaas te garanderen, en de kritische veiligheidsaspecten en activiteiten voor laparoscopische instrumentherverwerking en chirurgische benodigdheden, zoals cystische kanaalclips, die elke LC-patiënt helpen om complicaties te voorkomen en een optimaal postoperatief resultaat te ervaren.

Die laparoskopische Cholezystektomie (LC) ist die bevorzugte Behandlung für Gallensteine und andere Gallenblasenerkrankungen. Obwohl die LC mittlerweile ein sehr gängiges Verfahren ist, das häufig ambulant durchgeführt wird, birgt sie immer noch Risiken für den Patienten. Jedes Mitglied des perioperativen Teams, einschließlich der Krankenpflegekräfte, chirurgisch-technischen Assistenten und Sterilisationsfachkräfte, spielt eine entscheidende Rolle bei der Optimierung der Sicherheit und Wirksamkeit der LC. In dieser Lerneinheit werden die Inzidenz und Prävalenz von symptomatischen Gallensteinen, die wichtigsten chirurgischen Techniken zur sicheren Entfernung der Gallenblase und die kritischen Sicherheitsaspekte und -maßnahmen für die Wiederaufbereitung von laparoskopischen Instrumenten und für chirurgisches Material - wie z.B. Gallenkanal-Klemmen - erörtert, die bei jedem LC-Patienten dazu beitragen, Komplikationen zu vermeiden und ein optimales postoperatives Ergebnis zu erzielen.

La colecistectomia laparoscopica (CL) è il trattamento di elezione per la calcolosi biliare e altre patologie della cistifellea. Sebbene sia ormai una procedura molto comune, spesso eseguita in contesti ambulatoriali, presenta comunque dei rischi per il paziente. Ogni membro dell’équipe perioperatoria, inclusi infermieri professionali, strumentisti e addetti alla sterilizzazione, svolge un ruolo fondamentale nell’ottimizzazione della sicurezza e dell’efficacia della CL. Questa attività formativa tratterà l’incidenza e la prevalenza della calcolosi biliare sintomatica, le tecniche chirurgiche chiave stabilite per garantire una rimozione sicura della cistifellea nonché le attività e gli aspetti critici legati alla sicurezza per la rigenerazione degli strumenti laparoscopici e il materiale chirurgico, come le clip del dotto cistico, che consentono a ogni paziente sottoposto a CL di evitarne le relative complicanze e ottenere un risultato post-operatorio ottimale.

Periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) after total joint arthroplasty is a significant complication, and diagnosis and treatment are challenging, which makes prevention the most compelling strategy. This program defines PJI and explains its incidence, pathogenesis, risk factors, clinical consequences, and financial costs. The implications of biofilm formation for the diagnosis and treatment of PJI are discussed. Preoperative, perioperative, intraoperative, and postoperative preventive strategies are described in detail, focusing on the benefits of irrigation with high-osmolarity surfactant solutions.
