Children are not little adults, which is why even the simplest of procedures requires a hospital that is 100 percent dedicated to caring for children. Children’s Mercy is one of only 10 centers in the country to be as recognized as a Level 1 Children’s Surgery Center, the highest possible rating. The result? An organization with pediatrics specialists in every subspecialty that sets the standard of care instead of just practicing it.

Peripheral vascular disease, also called PVD, refers to any disease or disorder of the circulatory system outside of the brain and heart. The term can include any disorder that affects any blood vessels. It is, though, often used as a synonym for peripheral artery disease. PVD is the most common disease of the arteries. The build-up of fatty material inside the vessels, a condition called atherosclerosis or hardening of the arteries, is what causes it. The build up is a gradual process. Over time, the artery becomes blocked, narrowed, or weakened.

Cannula are often introduced into blood vessels in 80% of patients in the hospital for treatment. This can be a daunting experience to patients and stressful to doctors as multiple attempts are used. This may result in introducing spreading MRSA, E Coli & Chlostredium living on your skin into blood and results in Invasive MRSA infection.

Skin is often not adequatly cleaned during subsequent atempts as doctors/nurses do not wait for 1 min after applying cleaning solution on the skin before they puncture your skin.

Multiple punctured sites allow CA-MRSA to enter blood stream resulting in bacteremia and death.

Our mission is to reduce spreading invasive CA-MRSA in the hospitals by developing alternative technique to introduce cannulae.

Medifix was created by doctors with a mission to reduce the threat of spreading antibiotic resustant bacteria to mankind.

Purpose The complication rate in patients treated with the Linton procedure was unacceptably high. SEPS is minimal invasive treatment modality for chronic venous insufficiency and venous ulcers. Materials and Methods252 limbs of 229 patients who underwent SEPS procedure and/or safenous vein ablati...on from May 2003 to January 2008. Tourniquet was not used and two-port technique was preferred for operation. Skin graft was not used. Honeysoft (medical honey) was used for wound care in selected cases. Results According to CEAP clinical Classification 112 limbs were class 6, 70 limbs (class 5), 70 limbs (Class4) respectively. Greater saphenous vein stripping and/or high ligation, and varicose vein excision accompanied SEPS in 241limbs who had combined Sapheno-femoral junction and perforator vein insufficiencyand SEPS was performed alone 23 limbs who had recanalised deep venous thrombosis (19) and PVI alone(4). Mean patient follow-up was 35 months. No early deaths or thromboembolism occurred. Complications included severe subcutaneous emphysema(1), neuralgia (7), 1 year later cellulites (1). Ulcers healed in 124 limbs in two months and 58 limbs in 3 months. ulcer recurrence was seen on 12(%6.6) limbs. Clinical severity and disability scores improved significantly after surgery. Conclusion All venous ulcers healed with SEPS combined or not ablation of superficial venous reflux and remain healed 5 year period and symptom-free except recurrent ulcers during the long-term follow-up. SEPS is an effective and safety treatment modality.
