I think the hospital staff is in charge of preparation/cleaning /sterile equipment. But it could be a combination of Dr, staff or something else...for that to happen. Did they investigate how it happened?

Hospitals are one of the dirtiest places around! ICK! those little sticky germs spread and hang onto every tiny corner. MDs ties are the worst offenders. They never wash those things, and I think they should be banned. Those curtains between the beds are another. Staph is a very hard to kill bacteria.
Folks used to be very worried about a drop of AIDS infected blood, but if you put one drop of Aids blood, next to a drop of Hep B blood and checked them out. The minute the Aids blood is cool, its dead. 2 weeks later you can come back and still find life in that Hep B droplet. Scary! You MUST be PRO active in a hospital. DEMAND that anyone who come near you wash their hands first. Put your own BP machine in your room, and dont share. Keep your own hands really clean and NEVER touch your face unless you are washing it. With so many rapid fire patients going from ER to OR its amazing we dont have more sick folks. Im sorry you got sick. I hope they find a way to make it better, quick.

TODAY Investigates: Dirty surgical instruments a problem in the OR TODAY Investigates: Dirty surgical instruments a problem in the OR - Q&A VA medical centers in hot water for failing to follow sterilization training It saddens me that our veterans receive a low level of care, including our own forum member Moltra Brotman Medical Center appears to be poorly reviewed. I think the use of this facility is as much of an indictment of Dr. Filler as it is of the Medical Center itself. He may not have many choices to use top facilities due to his reputation. Or perhaps he's just cheap, greedy, and all about profits. http://www.yelp.com/biz/brotman-medi...er-culver-city http://maps.google.com/maps/place?ci...OeqeiALe05CCDQ

I was bored last night and did some reading on the iPhone on recurrent TOS. It appears that several things are known to increase scarring/adhesions which lead to recurrence.

I googled "recurrent thoracic outlet syndrome" and "excessive neurolysis" [seperately] and found a wealth of great info.
Although some studies are from years ago, I really liked the huge sample size of this one: http://people.bu.edu/sobieraj/ed/TOSreview.html
