NCT ID: NCT06323499 Completed - Tachyarrhythmia Clinical Trials

Outcome of Induced Atypical Atrial Flutter

Start date: April 1, 2018
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Background: Atypical atrial flutter (AAF) is an increasingly relevant clinical problem. Despite advancements in mapping and ablation techniques, the general management of these patients remain challenging especially when mapping cannot be performed during ongoing arrhythmia. There are no data whether induction of AAF is a feasible approach in these cases. Methods: The investigators retrospectively analyzed patients who underwent catheter ablation of AAF and compared procedural results between patients with ongoing tachycardia when starting the procedure and patients with induced AAF. For this retrospective study, the investigators analyzed patients undergoing ablation of AAF between April 2018 and January 2021 that were identified from the ablation database at the West German Heart and Vascular Center, Essen. All patients were followed up in the outpatient clinic as part of the clinical standard routine or contacted by telephone to assess the occurrence of clinical recurrence of any arrhythmia. In case the documentation was not performed at the institution, relevant documents and ECGs were requested and reviewed. This single-center cohort study was conducted at the University Hospital Essen, Germany, in accordance with the Declaration of Helsinki and its amendments and was approved by the institutional review board of the University of Essen (number 21-10341-BO). Written informed consent was obtained from all study participants. The primary study endpoint was to evaluate the outcome of patients with induced AAF in comparison to patients with ongoing AAF when starting the procedure. Furthermore, the investigators analyzed the type of recurrence during follow-up as well as the occurrence and results of repeat ablations at the institution. The investigators also evaluated if the recurrent AAF form was the same or de-novo compared to the AAF during previous procedure.

NCT ID: NCT06166641 Recruiting - Pressure Ulcer Clinical Trials

Prediction Models for Risk Score and Prognosis of Intraoperatively Acquired Pressure Injury in Surgical Patients

Start date: August 1, 2023
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The study aims to effectively identify the risk of intraoperative acquired pressure injuries (IAPI) in surgical patients through a prospective multicenter approach. It combines indicators from commonly used assessment tools and practical experience judgments to construct a comprehensive assessment framework. By incorporating various indicators, the study aims to improve the accuracy and reliability of identifying patients at risk of IAPI during surgery. This will help clinicians in making informed decisions and implementing preventive measures to minimize the occurrence of pressure injuries. The multicenter approach ensures a diverse and representative sample of patients from different surgical settings. This increases the generalizability of the study findings and enhances the applicability of the assessment framework across various clinical settings. The project's methodology involves collecting data on patient demographics, medical history, surgical procedure details, and assessment tool scores. These data points will be analyzed to identify significant risk factors for IAPI and develop a risk prediction model. The study also takes into consideration practical experience judgments, which acknowledge the importance of clinical expertise in assessing patients' risk of IAPI. This ensures that the assessment framework is not solely reliant on assessment tools but also incorporates the insights of experienced clinicians. Overall, this prospective multicenter study aims to contribute to the field by providing a comprehensive and practical approach to identify the risk of IAPI in surgical patients. The findings from this study can be utilized in clinical practice to improve patient outcomes and reduce the incidence of pressure injuries during surgery.

NCT ID: NCT05549882 Recruiting - Clinical Outcome Clinical Trials

A Novel Index to Predict the Failure of High-flow Nasal Cannula in Patients With Acute Hypoxemic Respiratory Failure

Start date: October 1, 2022
Phase:
Study type: Observational [Patient Registry]

High-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) is increasingly used in patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure (AHRF) and has been shown to improve outcome in specific patient categories, including community acquired pneumonia and after extubation. Since HFNC failure and delayed intubation is associated with adverse clinical outcome, predicting HFNC failure is of clinical importance. In patients with pneumonia and hypoxemic failure treated with HFNC, the ROX index (SpO2/FiO2 over respiratory rate), has been validated to predict the risk for endotracheal intubation. Increased respiratory rate, an important component of ROX, is used as an estimate for high respiratory drive, although it is well known that respiratory rate is insensitive to early changes in respiratory drive. Indeed, it has been shown that ROX worked best only after 12 hours after HFNC initiation. Earlier and more sensitive predictors of HFNC failure would be of clinical importance. Initially, elevated respiratory drive increases tidal volume (VT), but not respiratory rate. In addition, high VT has been linked to patient self-inflicted lung injury (P-SILI) and such may increase intubation rate in patients with AHRF. Taken together, from a physiological perspective, elevated TV may be a better predictor for HFNC failure compared to respiratory rate. Hence, we report an approach to measure VT generated by patients supported with HFNC and establish a novel index named VOX (Volume-OXygenation) based on VT to predict HFNC failure in patients with AHRF.

NCT ID: NCT05373836 Not yet recruiting - Clinical Outcome Clinical Trials

Relationship of PNI and Clinical Outcome in Patients Undergoing Brain Tumor Surgery

Start date: December 12, 2024
Phase:
Study type: Observational

There are several predictors of clinical outcome in patients undergoing brain tumor surgery. Among those, nutritional parameters and calculated nutritional index are known to have ability to predict mortality and clinical outcomes in some patients with brain tumor. However, there are lack of consistent results on predictability of nutritional index and clinical outcome in patients undergoing brain tumor surgery.

NCT ID: NCT04636099 Recruiting - Gastrostomy Clinical Trials

Gastrointestinal Surgery Study Group 2001

GISSG2001
Start date: November 1, 2020
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Gastric cancer is one of the most common malignace worldwide, which caused a dramatically death rate, especially in east Asian, such as Japan , South Korea and China. Although the treatment of gastric cancer has a large improvement, such as radiotherapy, chemotherapy and immunotherapy, surgery is yet the mainstream method for the curable malignace without distant metastasis. As the innovation of treatment in gastric caner, laprascopic has gain its popularity owing to its equivalent oncologic outcomes, earlier oral feeding, shorten postopertative of hospital length,compared with open surgery. Depite it has several advantages, the defect of laparascopic surgery is still obvious, such as 2D surgical field, lack of inverse haptic feedback, Inflexible equipment. D2 Lymph node dissection associated with laparascopic gastronomy is still regard as standard surgical procedure for the gastric cancer patient whose tumor stage was evaluated in advance stage. As we known that the distribution of lymph nod is accompanied with blood vessels, even for well-trained surgeon, the procedure lymph node dissection is a challenging and tough work. Computed Tomography Angiography(3D-CTA), as a emerging technology, is gradually receive the surgeon's attention for its remedy characteristic to the defect of laparascopic surgery, which can visually display the distribution and type of perigastric artery, resulting in decresing the difficulty and risk of surgery. The aim of the study is to investigate the clinincal outcomes for the patient with BMI ≥25 kg/㎡who underwent laparascopic or robotic gastronomy using CTA to evaluate the type of perigastric artery.
