Boyev A, Popat K, Gottumukkala V, Kwater A, Chiang Y, Prakash L, et al.
Am J Surg . 2024 May; 237:115770. PMID: 38789322
Background: Fascial plane blocks (FPBs) are widely used for abdominal surgery with the assumption that liposomal bupivacaine (LB) is more effective than standard bupivacaine (SB). Methods: This was a single-institution...

Azimuddin A, Tzeng C, Prakash L, Bruno M, Arvide E, Dewhurst W, et al.
J Am Coll Surg . 2024 Jan; 238(4):451-459. PMID: 38180055
Background: We hypothesized that iterative revisions of our original 2016 risk-stratified pancreatectomy clinical pathways would be associated with decreased 90-day perioperative costs. Study Design: From a single-institution retrospective cohort study...

Martin A, Newhook T, Arvide E, Kim B, Dewhurst W, Kawaguchi Y, et al.
Am J Surg . 2023 Dec; 233:17-23. PMID: 38129274
Background: While risk-stratified post-hepatectomy pathways (RSPHPs) reduce length-of-stay, can they stratify hepatectomy patients by risk of early postoperative events. Methods: 90-day outcomes from consecutive hepatectomies were analyzed (1/1/2017-12/31/2021). Pre/post-pathway analysis...

Boyev A, Azimuddin A, Newhook T, Maxwell J, Prakash L, Bruno M, et al.
J Gastrointest Surg . 2023 Nov; 27(12):2806-2814. PMID: 37935998
Background: Risk-stratified drain fluid amylase cutoff values for postoperative day 1 (POD1) (DFA1) and POD3 (DFA3) can guide early drain removal after pancreatoduodenectomy (PD). The aim of this study was...

Boyev A, Azimuddin A, Prakash L, Newhook T, Maxwell J, Bruno M, et al.
Ann Surg . 2023 Oct; 279(6):1046-1053. PMID: 37791481
Objective: Within a learning health system paradigm, this study sought to evaluate reasons for readmission to identify opportunities for improvement. Background: Post-pancreatectomy readmission rates have remained constant despite improved index...

Boyev A, Prakash L, Chiang Y, Newhook T, Bruno M, Arvide E, et al.
Surg Oncol . 2023 Sep; 51:101994. PMID: 37742542
Background: The prognostic utility of Carbohydrate Antigen 19-9 (CA 19-9) and Carcinoembryonic Antigen (CEA) in ampullary adenocarcinoma is unclear. We sought to evaluate the association between initial tumor marker levels...

Boyev A, Jain A, Newhook T, Prakash L, Chiang Y, Bruno M, et al.
JAMA Surg . 2023 Sep; 158(11):e234154. PMID: 37672236
Importance: Postoperative opioid overprescribing leads to persistent opioid use and excess pills at risk for misuse and diversion. A learning health system paradigm using risk-stratified pancreatectomy clinical pathways (RSPCPs) may...

Boyev A, Prakash L, Chiang Y, Childers C, Jain A, Newhook T, et al.
J Gastrointest Surg . 2023 Jul; 27(10):2135-2144. PMID: 37468733
Background: Clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula (CR-POPF) is a major source of morbidity after distal pancreatectomy. This study examined the association between postoperative opioid use and CR-POPF in the context...

Boyev A, Arvide E, Newhook T, Prakash L, Bruno M, Dewhurst W, et al.
Ann Surg . 2023 Jun; 279(4):657-664. PMID: 37389897
Objective: The aim of this study was to compare infectious complications in pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) patients with biliary stents treated with short, medium, or long durations of prophylactic antibiotics. Background: Pre-existing...

Ayabe R, Prakash L, Bruno M, Newhook T, Maxwell J, Arvide E, et al.
J Am Coll Surg . 2023 Feb; 237(1):4-12. PMID: 36786469
Background: The use of risk-stratified pancreatectomy care pathways (RSPCPs) is associated with reduced length of stay (LOS). This study sought to evaluate the impact of successive pathway revisions with the...
