We compared surgery under general anaesthesia with th... Read More about General anaesthesia versus local anaesthesia for carotid surgery (GALA): a multicentre, randomised controlled trial.

Journal Article
Gulati, S., Coughlin, P. A., Hatfield, J., & Chetter, I. C. (2009). Quality of life in patients with lower limb ischemia; revised suggestions for analysis. Journal of vascular surgery, 49(1), 122-126. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jvs.2008.08.011

Background: Quality of life (QoL) is a crucial outcome measure in patients with lower limb ischemia (LLI). The Short Form 36 (SF36) has been proposed as the gold standard instrument for generic QoL analysis in patients with LLI. The Short Form 8 (SF8...
