During hip arthroscopy, the surgeon must first access the hip joint; typically, this is done using a cannula, or a small, hollow tube that is placed into a surgical incision to make a portal.
Despite the importance of this step to the success of the procedure, traditional cannula options are limited to two types: circumferential cannulas and temporarily placed slotted cannulas.

The circumferential cannula is a solid tube made of metal or plastic and is typically placed and then left undisturbed throughout the procedure. The slotted cannula is a tube with a vertical slot

An investigational blood test may allow for detection of pancreatic cancer at its earliest stages when it is potentially curable, according to prospective study results.
The liquid biopsy also demonstrated the ability to identify high-grade dysplasia in the pancreas. Detection of the precancerous condition could establish a window for treatment prior to the development of invasive disease, researchers believe.
“A stage shift is not just a statistic,” senior author Ajay Goel, PhD, AGAF, chair of City of Hope’s department of molecular diagnostics and experimental therapeutics, said in a press

LONDON — Real-world, prospective, multicenter study results show high patient satisfaction with Bausch + Lomb’s enVista Aspire IOL, according to a presenter.
The lens was confirmed to offer enhanced depth of focus with no compromise on high-quality distance vision and minimal optical side effects.

PretestPro, software that guides patients through four eye exam pretests in less than 2 minutes, has launched in the U.S., according to a press release from Heru.
The software, available on virtual reality-powered Heru Prime headsets, guides patients through:
PretestPro is intended to streamline workflows and be more consistent than traditional tests that rely on a clinician’s subjective assessment.
“The difference in practice is that PretestPro produces the same assessments as quantitative, recorded measurements performed the same way on every patient, and those values stay in the record for

Exposure to secondhand smoke contributed to more than a million and a half deaths worldwide in 2023, a new report in Lancet Public Health shows.
According to Luisa Sorio Flor, MSc, PhD, an assistant professor at the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation, a 2011 “landmark” analysis linked 600,000 deaths globally to exposure to secondhand smoke. However, the analysis focused on a limited number of health outcomes in adults and did not include high-burden conditions such as stroke and COPD.
To address these limitations, Flor and colleagues conducted what they describe as the first Global
