SURGERY

这个子项目是许多研究子项目中的一个 由NIH/NCRR资助的中心赠款提供的资源。子项目和 研究者（PI）可能从另一个NIH来源获得了主要资金， 因此可在其他CRISP条目中表示。所列机构为 研究中心，而研究中心不一定是研究者所在的机构。 背景：手术设施为所有需要进行重大生存手术的研究项目提供支持。方法：手术在手术设施的两个手术室中的任何一个进行。 该设施由一名兽医直接监督，并由外科主管和两名外科技术员协助。 进行的程序是IACUC批准的程序或非研究动物的医学管理程序。 兽医为新的研究者进行外科手术提供支持，直到研究者能够胜任特定的技术。 训练有素的兽医技术人员在每一个外科手术过程中在场。 目前，在TNPRC进行的所有外科手术都涉及兽医。结果/讨论：2008年，为支持研究或临床护理，进行了151例大手术，278例小手术和1，329例内窥镜手术。 大多数内窥镜手术都是为了支持艾滋病相关的研究项目。

This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. Background: The surgery facilities provide support for all research projects requiring major survival surgery as a component of the research. Methods: Surgery is performed in either of two surgery rooms in the surgical facility. The facility is under the direct supervision of a veterinarian, who is assisted by the surgery supervisor and two surgery technicians. Procedures performed are those approved by the IACUC or for medical management of non-research animals. Veterinarians provide support to new investigators performing surgical procedures until the investigator becomes competent in the specific techniques. Trained veterinary technicians are present during every surgical procedure. Currently, all surgical procedures performed at the TNPRC involve a veterinarian. Results/Discussion: In 2008, 151 major survival surgeries, 278 minor surgeries, and 1,329 endoscopic procedures were performed in support of research or clinical care. Most endoscopic procedures are performed in support of AIDS-related research projects.
