Temporary balloon catheter occlusion for control of haemorrhage following penetrating axillary artery injury (2004)
Journal Article
Mehta, T., Venkata Subramaniam, A., Chetter, I., Nicholson, A., & Wilkinson, A. (2004). Temporary balloon catheter occlusion for control of haemorrhage following penetrating axillary artery injury. European Journal of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery Extra, 8(2), 29-30. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ejvsextra.2004.05.014

Penetrating injuries of the axillary artery are uncommon. Their repair can be difficult in the presence of torrential haemorrhage, which obscures the surgical field. We describe the use of interventional radiology for temporary control of bleeding to...

The value of abdominal examination in the diagnosis of abdominal aortic aneurysm (2004)
Journal Article
Venkatasubramaniam, A., Mehta, T., Chetter, I., Bryce, J., Renwick, P., Johnson, B., …McCollum, P. (2004). The value of abdominal examination in the diagnosis of abdominal aortic aneurysm. European journal of vascular and endovascular surgery : the official journal of the European Society for Vascular Surgery, 27(1), 56-60. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ejvs.2003.09.006

Background. There is considerable variability in the reported value of clinical examination in the diagnosis of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA). This study aims to assess accuracy of abdominal examination by a doctor, a nurse and the patient in the...

Objectives: the aim was to test the predictive accuracy of POSSUM and P-POSSUM on patients undergoing CEA. Design: retrospective and prospective study. Materials: 499 CEAs performed by four vascular surgeons from a single unit from 1992-99. The media... Read More about POSSUM and P-POSSUM overpredict mortality for carotid endarterectomy.

Risk modelling study for carotid endarterectomy (2001)
Journal Article
Kuhan, G., Gardiner, E. D., Abidia, A. F., Chetter, I. C., Renwick, P. M., Johnson, B. F., …McCollum, P. T. (2001). Risk modelling study for carotid endarterectomy. British journal of surgery, 88(12), 1590-1594. https://doi.org/10.1046/j.0007-1323.2001.01938.x

Background: The aims of this study were to identify factors that influence the risk of stroke or death following carotid endarterectomy (CEA) and to develop a model to aid in comparative audit of vascular surgeons and units. Methods: A series of 839... Read More about Risk modelling study for carotid endarterectomy.
