The State of Vascular Surgery Interest Groups in North America
Background Vascular surgery interest groups (VSIGs) raise awareness and attract medical students to the specialty. There has been a plateauing of applicants interested in integrated programs. The goal of this survey was to assess the activities of VSIGs and identify factors associated with matriculation into vascular surgery residency. Methods A survey was administered to members of the association of program directors in vascular surgery.
Discrepancy in Outcomes after Revascularization for Chronic Limb-Threatening Ischemia Warrants Separate Reporting of Rest Pain and Tissue Loss
Abstract Introduction Chronic Limb-Threatening Ischemia (CLTI) manifests as tissue loss (TL) and rest pain (RP). Outcomes of lower extremity revascularization (LER) for CLTI have traditionally been evaluated as a single entity and compared with claudication. We hypothesize that patients presenting with TL have worse short-term outcomes after LER, compared to patients with RP. Methods The National Inpatient Sample (NIS) was reviewed between 2009-2013.
The Reintervention Index: A new outcome measure for comparative effectiveness of lower extremity revascularization
Abstract Introduction Reinterventions after lower extremity revascularization (LER) are common. Current outcome measures assessing durability of revascularization rely on freedom from reintervention but do not account for the frequency of repeated LER. The aim of this study is to compare the reintervention index, defined as the mean number of repeat LER, after open and endovascular revascularization.
