One factor related to poor prognosis is acute kidney injury. According to the AKIN criteria, acute kidney injury has 3 stages based on urine output, serum creatinine level, and renal replacement therapy. In this study, we aimed to create a decision tree for estimating risk of acute kidney injury in patients with severe burn injuries. Methods: We retrospectively evaluated 437 adult patients with >20% total burn surface area injury who were treated at the Baskent University Ankara and Konya Burn Centers from January 2000 to March 2020. Patients who had high-voltage burn and previous history of kidney disease were excluded. Patient demographics, medical history, mechanism of injury, presence of inhalation injury, depth of burn, laboratory values, presence of oliguria, need for renal replacement therapy, central venous pressure, and prognosis were evaluated. These data were used in a "decision tree method" to create the Baskent University model to estimate risk of acute kidney injury in severe burn patients. Results: Our model provided an accuracy of 71.09% for risk estimation. Of 172 patients, 78 (45%) had different degrees of acute kidney injury, with 26 of these (15.1%) receiving renal replacement therapy. Our model showed that total burn surface area was the most important factor for estimation of acute kidney injury occurrence. Other important factors included serum creatinine value, burn injury severity score, hemoglobin value, neutrophil-tolymphocyte ratio, and platelet count. Conclusion: The Baskent University model for acute kidney injury may be helpful to determine risk of acute kidney injury in burn patients. This determination would allow appropriate treatment to be given to high-risk patients in the early period, reducing the incidence of acute kidney injury.

This study was performed to compare the efficacy of the bilateral erector spinae plane block (ESPB) and the subcostal transversus abdominis plane block (STAPB) under ultrasound guidance. Methods 64 patients were included in this prospective, randomized study. The patients were allocated into two groups as those receiving ESPB (n = 32) and those receiving STAPB (n = 32). Pain scores at rest and during movement, fentanyl requirement, postoperative walking time, and duration of hospital stay were compared. The complications which related to block were also recorded. Results In the ESPB group, the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) scores at rest were lower at hour 0 [at the time of post-anesthetic care unit (PACU) admission] and postoperative hours 2, 4, 6, and 12 (p < 0.05). In the same group, the NRS scores at movement were lower at hours 0, 2, 4, 6, 12, and 24 (p < 0.05). In the ESPB group, the time to first analgesic need was longer (p < 0.05), intraoperative and postoperative Fentanyl requirement (p < 0.0001 for both) and PACU rescue analgesic requirement were lower (p < 0.05), the lengths of PACU and hospital stay were shorter (p < 0.0001), and unassisted walking time was shorter (p < 0.0001). There were no complications related to the block in either group. Conclusion Bilateral ultrasound-guided ESPB provides superior analgesia after laparoscopic cholecystectomy surgery compared to STAPB and further reduces unaided walking time and hospital stay.Item A Novel Specimen Retrieval Bag Using Camera Cover in Elective Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy: A Prospective Cross-Sectional Cohort Study(2020) Arer, Ilker M.; Kus, Murat; Yabanoglu, Hakan; Turk, Emin; Birol, Selim; 0000-0002-1161-3369; 0000-0001-6529-7579; 0000-0003-4766-3373; 0000-0003-0268-8999; 32762623; AAJ-7865-2021; AAJ-7870-2021; AAJ-5609-2021; AAK-2011-2021Item Effects of Single-Dose Preemptive Pregabalin and Intravenous Ibuprofen on Postoperative Opioid Consumption and Acute Pain after Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy(2019) Karaca, Omer; Pinar, Huseyin U.; Turk, Emin; Dogan, Rafi; Ahiskalioglu, Ali; Solak, Sezen K.; 0000-0003-1933-2075; 0000-0002-8467-8171; 0000-0003-0473-6763; 29157034; AAU-6923-2020; B-7473-2016; Q-2420-2015Purpose: Non-opioid medications as a part of multimodal analgesia has been increasingly suggested in the management of acute post-surgical pain. The present study was planned to compare the efficacy of the combination of pregabalin plus iv ibuprofen. Methods: 58 patients were included in this prospective, randomized, double-blinded study. The pregabalin group (Group P, n = 29) received 150 mg pregabalin, the pregabalin plus ibuprofen group (Gropu PI, n = 29) received 150 mg pregabalin and 400mg iv ibuprofen before surgery. Postoperative fentanyl consumption, additional analgesia requirements and PACU stay were recorded. Postoperative analgesia was performed with patient-controlled IV fentanyl. Results: VAS scores in the group PI were statistically lower at PACU, 1and 2 hours at rest, at PACU, 1, 2, 4, 12 and 24 hours on movement compared to the group P (P < 0.05). Opioid consumption was statistically significantly higher in the group P compared to the group PI (130.17 +/- 60.27 vs 78.45 +/- 60.40 mu q, respectively, P < 0.001) and reduced in the 4th 24 hours by 55% in group PI. Rescue analgesia usage was statistically significantly higher in the group P than in the group PI (16/29 vs 7/29, respectively, P < 0.001). Four patient in the group PI did not need any opioid drug. Besides, PACU stay was shorter in the group PI than the group P (10.62 +/- 2.38 vs 15.59 +/- 2.11 min, respectively, P < 0.001). Conclusion: Preemptive pregabalin plus iv ibuprofen in laparoscopic cholecystectomy reduced postoperative opioid consumption. This multimodal analgesic aproach generated lower pain scores in the postoperative period.Item Cutaneous Bone Formation Associated With Melanocytic Nevus(2019) Erinanc, Halil; Turk, Emin; 31306387Aim: Cutaneous bone formation is an uncommon lesion of the skin. It may be primary or secondary. Secondary lesions are mostly associated with melanocytic nevi. Although many different theories have been proposed to explain the etiology, extraskeletal bone formation is complex and poorly understood phenomenon. Here the authors report a series of melanocytic nevi with cutaneous bone formation and the authors described morphologic and clinicopathologic features such as age, sex, location, focus number and size of the lesion. Material and Method: Through a single center, this retrospective study presents total number of 20 patients with melanocytic nevus with or without osseous metaplasia. Histologic and clinicopathologic features such as age, sex, location, focus, and size of lesion were compared. Results: Lesions were identified in 10 female patients. All of the cases were seen in the head and neck region such as face, forehead, eyebrow, lip, and neck and most of them were solitary. The nevi were usually associated with the single focus of ossification. Most of patients (50%) had acne symptoms and treatment anamnesis. Granulomatous dermal inflammation was seen in 2 patients. There was no difference in nevus morphology and the size of the nevi between the osteonevi and the other types of nevi. Conclusion: In conclusion, this study revealed that although it is rare it has distinctive features such as female patients, face location, and acne anamnesis. Therefore it may be speculated that the osteogenic factors may be involved with inflammatory-induced metaplastic ossification and tend to be related female sex.
