Abstract:
AbstractSurgery is an ever-evolving discipline and continually incorporates new technologies that have improved the ability of the operating room surgeon to perform. The next generation of minimally invasive surgery includes laparoscopic and robotic-assisted procedures. Graduating residents may be expected to have the skills to perform common colorectal procedures using these technologies, and residency programs are developing curriculums to teach these skills. Minimally invasive techniques are challenging and learning only by observation and practice alone is difficult. This requires dedicated training and mentoring.New simulation methods have been conceived specifically for minimally invasive procedures, and these embrace a combination of virtual reality simulators and box trainers, with animal and human tissue, as well as synthetic materials. The aim of this review is to provide an overview of training in minimally invasive colorectal surgery with a focus on different types of simulators that build the basis to develop and include a multistep training approach in a structured training curriculum for minimally invasive colorectal procedures.

Abstract:
Les procédures otologiques impliquent la manipulation de petites structures délicates et complexes de l'anatomie de l'os temporal qui se trouvent à proximité de nerfs et de vaisseaux sanguins critiques. La réalité augmentée (RA) peut grandement être benéfique au domaine otologique en fournissant des informations supplémentaires anatomiques et de navigation fusionnée sur un seul écran. Cependant, bien que la navigation conventionnelle ait prouvé son utilité en otologie, le développement de la RA dans ce domaine reste limitée. Ce projet vise à développer des solutions RA pour les interventions chirurgicales de l'oreille moyenne et interne.Nous proposons deux applications de la RA à cet égard. Dans la première application, des informations sur les structures de l'oreille moyenne sont obtenues à partir d'un examen tomodensitométrique préopératoire et sont superposées à la vidéo chirurgicale de la membrane tympanique. Cela permet au chirurgien d'avoir des informations en temps réel sur les structures anatomiques cibles et l'instrument chirurgical localisés derrière la membrane tympanique sans élévation du volet tympanoméatal. En prolongement de ce système, nous proposons également de visualiser le modiolus cochléaire sur la vidéo chirurgicale de l'oreille moyenne et interne permettant l'implantation transmodiolaire de l'implant cochléaire à travers le conduit auditif externe.Les deux systèmes de RA proposés sont conçus de manière mini-invasive et sont uniquement basés sur des algorithmes de vision, éliminant la nécessité de systèmes traditionnels de suivi magnétique et/ou optique que l'installation dans l'environnement du bloc opératoire est facile. Ce travail ouvre des perspectives importantes sur les procédures otologiques mini-invasives grâce à des solutions basées sur la RA
Otologic procedures involve manipulation of small, delicate and complex structures in the temporal bone anatomy which are in close proxmity of critical nerves and blood vessels. Augmented reality (AR) can highly benefit the otological domain by providing supplementary anatomical and navigational information unified on a single display. However, despite being composed of mainly rigid bony structures, the awareness and acceptance of possibilities of AR systems in otology is fairly low. This project aims at developing video-based AR solutions for middle and inner ear surgical procedures.We propose two applications of AR in this regard. In the first application, information about middle ear cleft structures is obtained from a preoperative CT-scan exam and overlayed onto the surgical video of the tympanic membrane. This system provides the surgeon with real-time information about the anatomical target structures and the surgical instrument behind the tympanic membrane without tympanomeatal flap elevation. As an extension of this system, we also propose to visualize the cochlear modiolus in the real-time surgical video of the middle and inner ear cleft enabling transmodiolar implantation of the cochlear implant through the external auditory canal.Both proposed AR systems are designed in a minimally invasive manner and are solely based on vision algorithms eliminating the need for traditional magnetic and optical tracking systems. The first trials showed an easy installation in the operating room environment. This work opens important perspectives into minimally invasive otologic procedures through AR-based solutions

Laparoscopic surgery is a widespread and rapidly growing surgical technique. One of the challenges facing surgeons performing laparoscopic procedures is the retraction of anatomical structures that restrict vision and access to the surgical site. Current solutions to this problem involve opening additional incisions, which causes increased risk and discomfort to the patient. This study proposes a design for a laparoscopic retractor that can be inserted and operated without the need for additional incisions. The anatomical principles relevant to the design are introduced. The inventive problem is investigated and expressed as a problem statement, and the design requirements for the device are listed and explained. The processes of initial concept generation and selection are described, as well as the various stages of design refinement and prototyping performed on the chosen concept. User feedback regarding the alpha prototype of the device is presented. Finally, recommendations are made for future development of the device.

Background: Majority of cancer interventions today are performed percutaneously using needle-based procedures, i.e. through the skin and soft tissue. Needle insertion is known as one of the recent needle-based techniques that is used in several diagnostic and therapeutic medical procedures such as brachytherapy, thermal ablations and breast biopsy. The difficulty in most of these procedures is to attain a precise navigation through tissue reaching target locations. Insufficient accuracy using conventional surgical needles motivated researchers to provide actuation forces to the needle’s body for compensating the possible errors of surgeons/physicians. Therefore, active needles were proposed recently where actuation forces provided by shape memory alloys (SMAs) are utilized to assist the maneuverability and accuracy of surgical needles. This work also aims to introduce a novel needle insertion simulation to predict the deflection of a bevel tip needle inside the tissue. Development of a model to predict the behavior of the needle steering in the soft tissue has been always a point of interest as it could improve the performance of many percutaneous needle-based procedures. Methods: In this work first, the actuation capability of a single SMA wire was studied. The complex response of SMAs was investigated via a MATLAB implementation of the Brinson model and verified via experimental tests. The material characteristics of SMAs were simulated by defining multilinear elastic isothermal stress-strain curves. Rigorous experiments with SMA wires were performed to determine the material properties as well as to show the capability of the code to predict a stabilized SMA transformation behavior with sufficient accuracy. The isothermal stress-strain curves of SMAs were simulated and defined as a material model for the Finite Element Analysis of the active needle. In the second part of this work, a three-dimensional finite element (FE) model of the active steerable needle was developed to demonstrate the feasibility of using SMA wires as actuators to bend the surgical needle. In the FE model, birth and death method of defining boundary conditions, available in ANSYS, was used to achieve the pre-strain condition on SMA wire prior to actuation. This numerical model was validated with needle deflection experiments with developed prototypes of the active needle. The third part of this work describes the design optimization of the active using genetic algorithm aiming for its maximum flexibility. Design parameters influencing the steerability include the needle’s diameter, wire diameter, pre-strain, and its offset from the needle. A simplified model was developed to decrease the computation time in iterative analyses of the optimization algorithm. In the fourth part of this work a design of an active needling system was proposed where actuation forces of SMAs as well as shape memory polymers (SMPs) were incorporated. SMP elements provide two major additional advantages to the design: (i) recovery of the SMP’s plastic deformation by heating the element above its glass transition temperature, and (ii) achieving a higher needle deflection by having a softer stage of SMP at higher temperatures with less amount of actuation force. Finally, in the fifth and last part of this study, an Arbitrary-Lagrangian-Eulerian formulation in LS-DYNA software was used to model the solid-fluid interactions between the needle and tissue. A 150mm long needle was considered to bend within the tissue due to the interacting forces on its asymmetric bevel tip. Some additional assumptions were made to maintain a reasonable computational time, with no need of parallel processing, while having practical accuracies. Three experimental tests of needle steering in a soft phantom were performed to validate the simulation. Results: The finite element model of the active needle was first validated experimentally with developed prototypes. Several design parameters affecting the needle’s deflection such as the needle’s Young’s modulus, the SMA’s pre-strain and its offset from the neutral axis of the cannula were studied using the FE model. Then by the integration of the SMA characteristics with the automated optimization schemes an improved design of the active needle was obtained. Real-time experiments with different prototypes showed that the quickest response and the maximum deflection were achieved by the needle with two sections of actuation compared to a single section of actuation. Also the feasibility of providing actuation forces using both SMAs and SMPs for the surgical needle was demonstrated in this study. The needle insertion simulation was validated while observing less than 10% deviation between the estimated amount of needle deflection by the simulation and by the experiments. Using this model the effect of needle diameter and its bevel tip angle on the final shape of the needle was investigated. Conclusion: The numerical and experimental studies of this work showed that a highly maneuverable active needle can be made using the actuation of multiple SMA wires in series. To maneuver around the anatomical obstacles of the human body and reach the target location, thin sharp needles are recommended as they would create a smaller radius of curvature. The insertion model presented in this work is intended to be used as a base structure for path planning and training purposes for future studies.

Ph.D.
The needle-based procedures are usually considered minimally invasive. However, in insertion into soft tissues such as brain and liver, the tissue damage caused by needle insertion can be very significant. From the literature, it has been known that reduction in needle insertion and extraction forces as well as tissue deformation during the insertion results in less invasive procedure. This work aims to design and develop a new bioinspired design for surgical needles which reduce the insertion and extraction forces of the needle, and its damage to the tissue. Barbs in honeybee stinger decrease its insertion force significantly. Inspired by that finding, a new honeybee-inspired needle was designed and developed, and its insertion mechanics was studied. To study the insertion mechanics of honeybee-inspired needle, insertion tests into artificial and biological tissues were performed using both honeybee-inspired and conventional needles. The barb design parameters effects on needle forces were studied through multiple insertion and extraction tests into PVC gels. The design parameters values of the barbs were experimentally modified to further reduce the ultimate insertion and extraction forces of the needle. Bioinspired needle with modified barb design parameters values reduces the insertion force by 35%, and the extraction force by 20%. To show the relevance, the insertion tests into bovine liver and brain tissue were performed. Our results show that there was a 10-25% decrease in the insertion force for insertions into bovine brain, and a 35-45% reduction in the insertion force for insertions into the bovine liver using the proposed bioinspired needles. The bioinspired and conventional needles were manufactured in different scales and then used to study the size scale effect on our results. To do so, the insertion tests into tissue-mimicking PVC gels and liver tissues were performed. The results obtained for different sizes of the needle showed 25-46% decrease in the insertion force. The tissue deformations study was conducted to measure tissue deformation during the insertion using digital image correlation. The tissue deformation results showed 17% decrease in tissue deformation using barbed needles. A histological study was performed to accurately measure the damage caused by needle insertion. Our results showed 33% less tissue damage using bioinspired needles. The results of the histological study are in agreement with our hypothesis that reducing needle forces and tissue deformation lead to less invasive percutaneous procedures.

Abstract:
Exposure to certain bloodborne pathogens can prematurely end a person’s life. Healthcare workers (HCWs), especially those who are members of surgical teams, are at increased risk of exposure to these pathogens. The proper use of personal protective equipment (PPE) during operative/invasive procedures reduces that risk. Despite this, some HCWs fail to consistently use PPE as required by federal regulation, accrediting agencies, hospital policy, and professional association standards. The purpose of this mixed methods survey study was to (a) examine factors surgical team members perceive influence choices of wearing or not wearing PPE during operative/invasive procedures and (b) determine what would influence consistent use of PPE by surgical team members. Using an ex post facto, non-experimental design, the memberships of five professional associations whose members comprise surgical teams were invited to complete a mixed methods survey study. The primary research question for the study was: What differences (perceptual and demographic) exist between surgical team members that influence their choices of wearing or not wearing PPE during operative/invasive procedures? Four principal differences were found between surgical team members. Functional (i.e., profession or role based) differences exist between the groups. Age and experience (i.e., time in profession) differences exist among members of the groups. Finally, being a nurse anesthetist influences the use of risk assessment to determine the level of PPE to use. Four common themes emerged across all groups informing the two study purposes. Those themes were: availability, education, leadership, and performance. Subsidiary research questions examined the influence of previous accidental exposure to blood or body fluids, federal regulations, hospital policy and procedure, leaders’ attitudes, and patients’ needs on the use of PPE. Each of these was found to strongly influence surgical team members and their use of PPE during operative/invasive procedures. Implications based on the findings affect organizational policy, purchasing and distribution decisions, curriculum design and instruction, leader behavior, and finally partnership with PPE manufacturers. Surgical team members must balance their innate need to care for patients with their need to protect themselves. Results of this study will help team members, leaders, and educators achieve this balance.

Abstract:
Internationally as well as in Sweden, efforts for improvement in gynaecological surgery in recent decades have mainly focused on three new treatment concepts: (1) Use of minimally invasive procedures: since there is an interdependency between the extent of surgical trauma and the risk for adverse outcome, increased use of supposedly atraumatic endoscopic procedures has revolutionized several aspects of surgical care (2) A multimodal approach to eliminate harmful procedures in the peri-operative process based on evidence-based principles (3) Introduction of implants to support damaged tissue with synthetic mesh in incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse patients. Research question 1: Is introduction of a minimally invasive operation enough per se or is the measured improvement mediated by elimination of harmful procedures in the perioperative process? Findings: Our study (Paper I) indicates that by applying a multimodal intervention programme for the pre- and postoperative care of patients undergoing supravaginal hysterectomy, the surgical procedure per se is of less importance than generally considered. Patient-related parameters such as length of postoperative hospital stay, number of days at home with need of painkillers, number of days before return to normal activities, and patient satisfaction did not differ between patients undergoing the laparoscopic procedure and patients undergoing abdominal supravaginal hysterectomy. When evaluating a new and presumably improved operative procedure against an established standard procedure, it is mandatory and of fundamental importance that the two methods are aligned in terms of perioperative care provided. Research question 2: Under which circumstances can it be assumed that a new surgical procedure showing promising efficacy in one setting can be reproduced with similar results in a different clinical setting (Paper I)? Findings: The operating surgeons concluded that, in their hands and under local conditions, laparoscopic technique for supravaginal hysterectomy was not superior to traditional open hysterectomy and stopped using laparoscopic technique. It seems necessary, prior to routine use, to monitor, using scientific tools, whether the advantages described in the literature are achievable under local conditions. Research question 3: Do expected advantages of implants outweigh the unwanted effects and complications caused by implants in operations for recurrent cystocele (Paper II)? Findings: Mesh has better durability but more (minor) complications. It is not possible to determine whether mesh is "generally better" than native tissue operation. Some may focus on the improved durability, others on the increased risks. The surgeon must make a risk assessment for each individual case. The patient must be sufficiently informed to understand the risks and make a personal, informed decision whether she wants an augmentation by implant. Essential for this process is a clear, comprehensible picture of both desired and unwanted effects of the planned surgery. In this context, studies like ours might be of use.

Abstract:
L’endométriose est une pathologie chronique qui provoque des douleurs pelviennes et une infertilité. On décrit trois phénotypes d’endométriose :l’endométriose péritonéale superficielle, les kystes ovariens d’endométriose (endométriomes) et l’endométriose profonde.L’examen standard pour le diagnostic de l’endométriose est, encore aujourd’hui, la laparoscopie. Nous avons étudié, de façon prospective, l’utilité d’un examen non invasif, la tomographie par émission de positrons (PET), chez les patientes avec suspicion d’endométriose. Nous n’avons pas mis en évidence d’hyperactivité métabolique sur les images de PET pré opératoires, après injection de déoxyglucose marqué au 18F (18FDG), des lésions d’endométriose ayant été confirmées par laparoscopie. Nous avons réalisé, dans un second temps, la même étude après injection d’un analogue de la somatostatine, le DOTATATE, marqué au 68Ga, qui montre une avidité pour les récepteurs à la somatostatine (SSTR) de type 2. Dans cette dernière étude, seules les lésions d’endométriose profonde se sont révélées hyperactives sur les images pré opératoires de PET. Nous avons ensuite réalisé une étude immunohistochimique rétrospective sur différents échantillons d’endométriose superficielle, d’endométriomes et d’endométriose profonde. Nos résultats ont confirmé l’expression de SSTR de type 1 et 5 par les cellules épithéliales des trois phénotypes d’endométriose. Par contre, seules les lésions d’endométriose profonde exprimaient les SSTR de type 2.Le traitement chirurgical des endométriomes et de l’endométriose superficielle est bien codifié. Par contre, la chirurgie de l’endométriose profonde reste au cœur des débats dans la littérature. Nous avons évalué notre aptitude à appliquer les techniques de chirurgie mini-invasive aux procédures complexes telles que la résection des nodules d’endométriose profonde du septum recto-vaginal (NEPSRV). Nous avons évalué la faisabilité de la laparoscopie avec assistance robotique pour une autre procédure complexe :la dissection des ganglions para-aortiques dans le cadre des cancers du col utérin localement avancés. Nous l’avons jugée faisable et sûre pour les patientes. En l’absence de bénéfice démontré de la laparoscopie avec assistance robotique sur la laparoscopie conventionnelle pour le traitement des NEPSRV, nous avons décidé d’évaluer une nouvelle stratégie opératoire mini-invasive de résection des NEPSRV. Nous avons réalisé une analyse des 10 premières patientes opérées selon cette stratégie et avons montré une amélioration significative des symptômes et de la qualité de vie des patientes. Nous avons également étudié la morbidité post opératoire. Nous avons finalement étudié l’apport de la laparoscopie guidée par la fluorescence au traitement des NEPSRV et observé des résultats prometteurs.A l’avenir, les lésions symptomatiques d’endométriose profonde exprimant les SSTR2 pourraient être sélectionnées à l’aide d’un PET au 68Ga-DOTATATE afin d’être traitées, dans le cadre d’essais cliniques, par des analogues de la somatostatine. Ces thérapies ciblées permettaient, dans ces cas, d’éviter la chirurgie. Notre stratégie opératoire mini-invasive pourraient dès lors être appliquée aux lésions n’exprimant pas les SSTR2.

Abstract:
The current study examined the ability of pain-related catastrophizing to predict outcomes following non-surgical and surgical intervention for temporomandibular disorders (TMDs). The interpersonal context of pain-related catastrophizing, referred to as the communal coping model, was also examined to determine if patient perceptions of punishing and solicitous responses from significant others would moderate or mediate relations between pain catastrophizing and outcomes. The role of pain duration as a moderator of the relation between pain-related catastrophizing and perceived significant other responding was also examined. A total of 94 patients were identified for which 65 had follow-up outcomes that could be examined. Patient follow-up data were obtained at approximately two to three weeks, two to three months, and six months post-intervention. Results showed that pain-related catastrophizing was predictive of greater pain severity at all three follow-up time points after controlling for baseline levels of pain severity, depressive symptoms, sleep disturbance, and pain duration. Pain-related catastrophizing was predictive of poorer range of motion (ROM) at the initial follow-up after controlling for baseline levels of ROM, gender, and form of intervention. Pain-related catastrophizing was not associated with ROM at the second and third post-intervention follow-ups. There was no interaction between pain-related catastrophizing and perceptions of either solicitous or punishing responses in predicting post-intervention pain severity or ROM and any time point. Perceptions of significant other responses also did not mediate the relation between pain-related catastrophizing and post-intervention outcomes at any time point. Additionally, the interaction between pain duration and pain-related catastrophizing in the prediction of post-intervention pain severity or ROM was not significant at any follow-up time point. The findings indicate that pain related catastrophizing is an important predictor of pain severity following non-surgical and surgical interventions for TMDs both initially and in the long-term. Pain-related catastrophizing is related to ROM outcomes only in the short term. Perceptions of punishing and solicitous responses from significant others do not appear to play a role in these associations. The results suggest that patients with high levels of pre-intervention catastrophizing may benefit from adjunctive cognitive-behavioral intervention to attenuate post-intervention pain severity.

Abstract:
In the recent past, clinical procedures underwent huge modifications. Among them, mini-invasive surgery has modified the clinical practice and the quality of life of patients. All these evolutions are strictly correlated to the advancement in materials science. Shape Memory Polymers (SMPs), a novel class of stimuli-responsive materials, can be considered ideal candidates for the design of devices for mini-invasive surgery. Such devices can be inserted in a compact temporary shape and subsequently expanded at body temperature: a bone defect, e.g., could be filled by a filler made of SMPs. With the aim of promoting tissue integration and healing, these structures should present a suitable porosity. In this work two different processing techniques to obtain shape memory polymer scaffolds from Calo·MER™, a SMP, are presented. Porous structures were obtained by micro-extrusion, with different chemical expanding agents or by particulate leaching with salt. Morphology, thermo-mechanical and shape recovery properties of the SMP porous samples were investigated. The obtained foams show a well interconnected morphology, with a pore size in the range suitable for bone applications. Shape memory properties were not significantly affected by the transformation processes: a good ability of recovering the original shape was verified. Therefore, foams obtained from these materials could be used to fabricate devices for mini-invasive surgical procedures.

Abstract:
Abstract The design of an intracorpeal suturing device that will assist surgeons in placing an internal suture through a small incision. Performing surgical procedures through a small incision greatly reduces patient trauma and rehabilitation time, both of which are proportionally related to medical costs. Medical devices exists today that allow surgeons to perform procedures through small incisions, unfortunately, it is difficult to place sutures deep in the body using minimally invasive techniques. A device that enables surgeons to place sutures minimally invasively will facilitate surgeons by increasing the scope of procedures that can be preformed using this technique.

Abstract:
Abstract This paper presents a partial review of in-use, experimental or under development robotics technology applications in the medical field. The scope of the paper was narrowed by focusing on technologies related to surgical robotics, and applied to surgical procedures for Orthopedics, Telesurgery, Minimally Invasive Surgery, Endoscopy and Neurosurgery. Results of the review revealed that robotics in surgery are correctly considered as a tool for enhancing, not replacing the surgeon’s capabilities. Robotics technology is slowly but steadily gaining acceptance and usage in the field of surgery, but still faces many challenges. Rapid and continuous improvements in robotic technologies have great potential in advancing robotics use in the surgical field.

Abstract:
Needle-based surgical procedures for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes such as biopsy and brachytherapy has significantly contributed in minimally invasive surgeries. Percutaneous interventions demand precise navigation of surgical needles in soft tissue. Active needle steering increases the target placement accuracy, and consequently improves the clinical outcome. In this work, a novel 3D steerable active surgical needle with three Shape Memory Alloy (SMA) actuators is proposed. The actuation capabilities of SMAs were used to realize a 3D motion at the needle tip. The feasibility of 3D steerability was demonstrated through active control of multiple SMA actuators.

Abstract:
Minimally Invasive Surgery (MIS) has definitively changed the procedures performed in operating rooms. In many cases, MIS has become the recommended standard technique, replacing the traditional open surgery. Effective training and objective assessment of surgeons in these techniques become a major concern in hospitals in recent years, encouraged primarily by patients and a society that demands safer surgical procedures, which is associated with better surgeons training. In the framework of surgery, the difficulty of defining objective metrics for performance evaluation lies in the strict dependency between tasks and the difficulty of defining the meaning of optimal performance, related to the characterization of gestures made by the experts. An objective method to compare 3D gestures between an expert and novice surgeons through multidimensional data analysis is proposed in this paper. A survey of different algorithms for surgical gestures analysis in time domain is carried out. These ones include the Multi-dimensional Dynamic Time Warping (MD-DTW) and Multi-Dimensional Derivative Dynamic Time Warping (MD-DDTW). Simulation and experimental results are given with this different techniques.

Abstract:
Computer-Aided techniques have been deployed more commonly in recent years to assist with surgical procedures, particularly in the case of minimally invasive surgeries. Arthroscopy, as one of the most prevailing minimally invasive surgical procedures, increases surgical complexity due to the loss of joint visibility, but has many advantages. More obstacles are encountered during hip arthroscopy, given the tight socket-joint hip anatomy. Therefore, computer-aided techniques could be used to ease such difficulties during hip arthroscopy.

Integrated Approach to Evaluating Inherited Predictors of Resistance to Pulmonary Hypertension Syndrome (Ascites) in Fast Growing Broiler Chickens.

Abstract:
Background PHS (pulmonary hypertension syndrome, ascites syndrome) is a serious cause of loss in the broiler industry, and is a prime example of an undesirable side effect of successful genetic development that may be deleteriously manifested by factors in the environment of growing broilers. Basically, continuous and pinpointed selection for rapid growth in broilers has led to higher oxygen demand and consequently to more frequent manifestation of an inherent potential cardiopulmonary incapability to sufficiently oxygenate the arterial blood. The multifaceted causes and modifiers of PHS make research into finding solutions to the syndrome a complex and multi threaded challenge. This research used several directions to better understand the development of PHS and to probe possible means of achieving a goal of monitoring and increasing resistance to the syndrome. Research Objectives (1) To evaluate the growth dynamics of individuals within breeding stocks and their correlation with individual susceptibility or resistance to PHS; (2) To compile data on diagnostic indices found in this work to be predictive for PHS, during exposure to experimental protocols known to trigger PHS; (3) To conduct detailed physiological evaluations of cardiopulmonary function in broilers; (4) To compile data on growth dynamics and other diagnostic indices in existing lines selected for susceptibility or resistance to PHS; (5) To integrate growth dynamics and other diagnostic data within appropriate statistical procedures to provide geneticists with predictive indices that characterize resistance or susceptibility to PHS. Revisions In the first year, the US team acquired the costly Peckode weigh platform / individual bird I.D. system that was to provide the continuous (several times each day), automated weighing of birds, for a comprehensive monitoring of growth dynamics. However, data generated were found to be inaccurate and irreproducible, so making its use implausible. Henceforth, weighing was manual, this highly labor intensive work precluding some of the original objectives of using such a strategy of growth dynamics in selection procedures involving thousands of birds. Major conclusions, solutions, achievements 1. Healthy broilers were found to have greater oscillations in growth velocity and acceleration than PHS susceptible birds. This proved the scientific validity of our original hypothesis that such differences occur. 2. Growth rate in the first week is higher in PHS-susceptible than in PHS-resistant chicks. Artificial neural network accurately distinguished differences between the two groups based on growth patterns in this period. 3. In the US, the unilateral pulmonary occlusion technique was used in collaboration with a major broiler breeding company to create a commercial broiler line that is highly resistant to PHS induced by fast growth and low ambient temperatures. 4. In Israel, lines were obtained by genetic selection on PHS mortality after cold exposure in a dam-line population comprising of 85 sire families. The wide range of PHS incidence per family (0-50%), high heritability (about 0.6), and the results in cold challenged progeny, suggested a highly effective and relatively easy means for selection for PHS resistance 5. The best minimally-invasive diagnostic indices for prediction of PHS resistance were found to be oximetry, hematocrit values, heart rate and electrocardiographic (ECG) lead II waves. Some differences in results were found between the US and Israeli teams, probably reflecting genetic differences in the broiler strains used in the two countries. For instance the US team found the S wave amplitude to predict PHS susceptibility well, whereas the Israeli team found the P wave amplitude to be a better valid predictor. 6. Comprehensive physiological studies further increased knowledge on the development of PHS cardiopulmonary characteristics of pre-ascitic birds, pulmonary arterial wedge pressures, hypotension/kidney response, pulmonary hemodynamic responses to vasoactive mediators were all examined in depth. Implications, scientific and agricultural Substantial progress has been made in understanding the genetic and environmental factors involved in PHS, and their interaction. The two teams each successfully developed different selection programs, by surgical means and by divergent selection under cold challenge. Monitoring of the progress and success of the programs was done be using the in-depth estimations that this research engendered on the reliability and value of non-invasive predictive parameters. These findings helped corroborate the validity of practical means to improve PHT resistance by research-based programs of selection.
