Establishing an open and robotic pancreatic surgery program in a level 1 trauma center community teaching hospital and comparing its outcomes to high-volume academic center outcomes: a retrospective review
Han J, Dunham C, Renner C, Neubauer S, McCarron F, Chirichella T
BMC Surg . 2022 Dec; 22(1):414. PMID: 36474230
Background: The debate of whether to centralize hepato-pancreato-biliary surgery has been ongoing. The principal objective was to compare outcomes of a community pancreatic surgical program with those of high-volume academic...

Donor preoperative oxygen delivery and post-extubation hypoxia impact donation after circulatory death hypoxic cholangiopathy
Chirichella T, Dunham C, Zimmerman M, Phelan E, Mandell M, Conzen K, et al.
World J Gastroenterol . 2016 Mar; 22(12):3392-403. PMID: 27022221
Aim: To evaluate donation after circulatory death (DCD) orthotopic liver transplant outcomes [hypoxic cholangiopathy (HC) and patient/graft survival] and donor risk-conditions. Methods: From 2003-2013, 45 DCD donor transplants were performed....

In emergently ventilated trauma patients, low end-tidal CO2 and low cardiac output are associated and correlate with hemodynamic instability, hemorrhage, abnormal pupils, and death
Dunham C, Chirichella T, Gruber B, Ferrari J, Martin J, Luchs B, et al.
BMC Anesthesiol . 2013 Sep; 13(1):20. PMID: 24020798
Background: In a smaller experience, the authors previously demonstrated that end-tidal carbon dioxide (PetCO2) and cardiac output (CO) had a positive association in emergently intubated trauma patients during Emergency Department...

Trauma activation patients: evidence for routine alcohol and illicit drug screening
Dunham C, Chirichella T
PLoS One . 2012 Oct; 7(10):e47999. PMID: 23094103
Background: Statistics from the National Trauma Data Bank imply that discretionary blood alcohol and urine drug testing is common. However, there is little evidence to determine which patients are appropriate...

Emergency department noninvasive (NICOM) cardiac outputs are associated with trauma activation, patient injury severity and host conditions and mortality
Dunham C, Chirichella T, Gruber B, Ferrari J, Martin J, Luchs B, et al.
J Trauma Acute Care Surg . 2012 Sep; 73(2):479-85. PMID: 23019674
Background: Anoninvasive cardiac output (CO) monitor (NICOM), using Bioreactance technology, has been validated in several nontrauma patient studies. We hypothesized that NICOM CO would have more significant associations with clinical...

Attenuated hypocholesterolemia following severe trauma signals risk for late ventilator-associated pneumonia, ventilator dependency, and death: a retrospective study of consecutive patients
Dunham C, Chirichella T
Lipids Health Dis . 2011 Mar; 10:42. PMID: 21371328
Background: Post-traumatic ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) is a substantial clinical problem that increases hospital costs and typically adds to the duration of mechanical ventilation. We evaluated the impact of VAP on...
