Our "Preemie Reunion" has given us (staff) an opportunity to continue to connect with the babies, our preemie graduates and families. We believe that continuing our relationship with the families remind us of our hard work and gives us pride in what we do.
"For our caregiver team, ourselves and our patients - we want to capture candid still photos of caring actions/moments - an expression of how caring science touches all of us at all levels.
"
Focus on how small actions have a large impact on patient care. For example: helping to facilitate sleep hours with use of lowering the lights, quiet voices at night and warm blankets to tuck in.
Our project consists of placing inspirational quotes w/pictures on the outside of the patient doors as well as a larger picture in the patients room. We are hoping this will encourage/motivate/inspire the nurse to feel centered and the patient to be active in their roles of recovery.
Monthly Caritas Tea-Team Time is a monthly event started by the PACU unit of Kaiser Vallejo Medical Center. Tea is served as individuals express Caritas moments and experiences, promoting helping-trusting relationships among the staff and serving as a centering moment to pause before a patient interaction.
Kaiser Vallejo Medical Center has a Caritas Garden area which includes bamboo, waterfall, benches and a walking path intended for meditation, reflection and healing. Jean Watson’s 10 Caritas Principles have been engraved on rocks placed within the garden.

Embrace altruistic values and practice loving kindness with self and others is one of the 10 Caritas Principles developed by Jean Watson. To embrace this concept, on Valentine’s Day, February 14, 2013, members of the Kaiser Vallejo Caritas Circle made rounds throughout the entire hospital, inspiring people to practice kindness and pass it on to others, by passing out heart stickers and a “Heart It Forward” card containing more stickers to pass on to others remembering, kindness doesn’t cost a thing but it makes all the difference in our world.
"I Care is an acronym used during Authentic Hourly Rounding on our patients and expresses the format or guide to acknowledge our caring process. The script is just a guide but opens up the opportunity for dialogue to let our patients know that we not just treating them, but that we care about them.

RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.
Acute scrotum is a general term referring to an emergency condition affecting the contents or the wall of the scrotum.
There are a number of conditions that present acutely, predominantly with pain and/or swelling
A careful and detailed history and examination, and in some cases, investigations allow differentiation between these diagnoses. A prompt diagnosis is essential as the patient may require urgent surgical intervention
Testicular torsion refers to twisting of the spermatic cord, causing ischaemia of the testicle.
Testicular torsion results from inadequate fixation of the testis to the tunica vaginalis producing ischemia from reduced arterial inflow and venous outflow obstruction.
The prevalence of testicular torsion in adult patients hospitalized with acute scrotal pain is approximately 25 to 50 percent
