Annals of vascular surgery, 110(B), 216-223. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.avsg.2024.04.032

Introduction: The combination of intermittent claudication (IC), cardiometabolic multimorbidity (CMM), and sarcopenia is associated with worse outcomes than IC alone. This study aimed to identify whether the completion of supervised exercise therapy...

A feasibility survey to inform trial design investigating surgical site infection prevention in vascular surgery (2024)
Journal Article
Lathan, R., Hitchman, L., Long, J., Gwilym, B., Wall, M., Juszczak, M., Smith, G., Popplewell, M., Bosanquet, D., Hinchliffe, R., Pinkney, T., & Chetter, I. (2024). A feasibility survey to inform trial design investigating surgical site infection prevention in vascular surgery. Journal of Vascular Societies Great Britain and Ireland, 3(2), 76-83. https://doi.org/10.54522/jvsgbi.2024.116

Introduction: Current surgical site infection (SSI) prevention guidance indicates low-quality evidence supporting many of their recommendations. Subsequently, there is substantial variation in practice and often implementation of unsubstantiated inte...

Tailored risk assessment and forecasting in intermittent claudication (2024)
Journal Article
Ravindhran, B., Prosser, J., Lim, A., Lathan, R., Mishra, B., Hitchman, L., Smith, G. E., Carradice, D., Thakker, D., Chetter, I. C., & Pymer, S. (2024). Tailored risk assessment and forecasting in intermittent claudication. BJS Open, 8(1), Article zrad166. https://doi.org/10.1093/bjsopen/zrad166

Background: Guidelines recommend cardiovascular risk reduction and supervised exercise therapy as the first line of treatment in intermittent claudication, but implementation challenges and poor patient compliance lead to significant variation in man...

The effectiveness of waxing or epilation compared to conventional methods of hair removal in reducing the incidence of surgical site infections: a systematic review and meta-analysis (2024)
Journal Article
Cutteridge, J., Garrido, P., Staniland, T., Lim, A., Totty, J., Lathan, R., Smith, G., & Chetter, I. (2024). The effectiveness of waxing or epilation compared to conventional methods of hair removal in reducing the incidence of surgical site infections: a systematic review and meta-analysis. Frontiers in Surgery, 11, Article 1395681. https://doi.org/10.3389/fsurg.2024.1395681

Background: Surgical site infections (SSIs) pose a significant challenge to healthcare systems by elevating patient morbidity and mortality and driving up financial costs. Preoperative skin preparation is crucial for preventing SSIs; however, certain...
