Filter by:This study aims to develop a new instrument capable of providing an efficient measure of the quality of life of parents of conservatively treated patients with spinal deformity. The development of a questionnaire in a Rasch environment and specifically developed for parents of conservatively treated patients will ensure greater sensitivity and specificity of the questionnaire.
MARS is an artificial intelligence-powered system that aims at detecting common fetal anomalies during real-time obstetrics ultrasound. The current study comprises 2 stages: (1) The stage of model creation which will include retrospective collection of images from fetal anatomy scans with known diagnoses to train these model and test their diagnostic accuracy. (2) The stage of model validation through prospective application of this model to collected videos with known normal and abnormal diagnoses
A total of 620 children will be enrolled in this study from six sites in sub-Saharan Africa, South Asia, and Latin America. Half of the children's mothers will have taken aspirin and half will have taken placebo. This will allow the researchers to compare results of the two groups of children and determine if children exposed antenatally to low dose aspirin will have scores on the Bayley Scales of Infant Development-III (BSID-III) examination at 36 months of life (+/-3months) that are not inferior to the child's peers who were not exposed (i.e., by no more than a margin of 4 points).
Pectus excavatum (PE) and pectus carinatum (PC) are the most frequent chest wall deformities in humans. They are usually clinically recognized in early childhood or adolescence, with aggravation during the pubertal growth spurt. PE is a depression of the anterior chest wall, most frequently involving the lower sternum. In this study we use simultaneously compared chest CT, MRI, and 3D scanning fro both PE and PC assessment . The aim of this study is to compare a standard protocol using chest CT to a non-irradiant protocol with 3D scanning and MRI. The primary endpoint was to assess the inter observer concordance and the correlation between the HI (Haller Index) evaluated with MRI and the EHI (External Haller index) evaluated with 3D scanning. The secondary endpoints were to assess the concordance with chest CT the variation of the HI evaluated in inspiration and expiration with MRI and also the correction index (CI) between chest CT and MRI in the PE group, .
Evaluate surgical treatment outcomes and identify best practice guidelines for complex adult spinal deformity (ASD) patients treated with minimally invasive approach, including radiographic and clinical outcomes, surgical and postoperative complications, risk factors for and revision surgery rates, and the role of standard work to improve patient outcomes and reduce surgical and postoperative complications.
Prospective, monocentric, single arm, observational PMCF - Study on the Performance and Safety of Double-Shank Titanium Ligation Clip in Urology (Prostatectomy and Nephrectomy)
To evaluate the diagnostic performance of antenatal echocardiography with regard to the main diagnosis of heart disease made by cardio-pediatricians at the couple-child hospital in Grenoble according to the ACC-CHD classification, in pregnant women who have had a fetal heart ultrasound between 2015 and 2019. *ACC-CHD : Anatomic and Clinical Classification of Congenital Heart Defects
The creation of a 3D model of modal anatomy of the ethmoid could, like other parts of the body, improve anatomical, radiological and perhaps even surgical learning. Anatomical variations might constitute a "background noise" of the modal anatomy, which can be attenuated by multiplying the instances of acquisitions. The objective of this work is to establish modal anatomy of the ethmoid by the analysis of a large number of CT-scan acquisitions carried out in individuals with no acquired sinus pathology.
The aim of this study was to develop a Spanish version of the Orthognathic Quality of Life Questionnaire (OQLQ) that is conceptually equivalent to the original questionnaire, as well as acceptable, reliable, valid, and responsive for use in Chilean patients with dentofacial deformities.The cross cultural adaptation process was carried out according to the recommended standard methodology with direct and back-translation.
In current practice, options for venous and lymphatic malformations remain limited. Recently an oral medication, sirolimus, has been found to benefit patients when taken once or twice a day for several months. Unfortunately there are many side effects associated with this medication, some of which can be severe including, neutropenia, oral ulcerations, and lab abnormalities. The purpose of this study is to determine if once weekly dosed sirolimus will be effective for the treatment of venous and lymphatic malformations. Additionally, the study will evaluate patient satisfaction and identify adverse effects. Participants will be on the medication for 6 months with an option to continue after this time period.
