NCT ID: NCT05305053 Completed - Frailty Clinical Trials

Practice Variation in Preoperative Multidisciplinary Team Discussions

Start date: April 1, 2022
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Preoperative multidisciplinary team (MDT)discussions are recommended by national and international guidelines. However, no guidance is given on how to organise and execute an MDT discussion. The objective of this study is to describe the methods used for preoperative MDT discussion executed in the Netherlands.

NCT ID: NCT02307825 Completed - Clinical trials for Chronic Rhinosinusitis

Azithromycin for Patients With Chronic Rhinosinusitis Failing Medical and Surgical Therapy

AZI-CRS
Start date: November 2014
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

Justification: Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is one of the most common inflammatory diseases with an incidence and prevalence superior to 10%. Unfortunately, more than 30% of patients do not respond to standard medical and surgical treatment, thus continuously increasing the symptomatologic and socio-economic burden of this disease. Hypothesis: The investigators believe that the addition of azithromycin (AZI) to the treatment regimen of patients with refractory CRS failing conventional medico-surgical treatment will be beneficial in a symptomatologic and endoscopic level. Primary objective: 1- To evaluate whether Azithromycine 250 mg PO three times weekly is effective in controlling signs and symptoms of CRS in high-risk patients unresponsive to standard management after endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) with budesonide irrigations. Secondary objectives: i) Validate a simple and concise treatment algorithm for patients refractory to standard CRS treatment of ESS and BUDI, with the addition of low-dose AZI. ii) Characterise and define the population deemed "high-risk" for standard CRS treatment failure by evaluating: 1) demographics, 2) inflammatory states and 3) the nasal flora microbiome of patients at the different follow-up points of this study. iii) Explore the mechanisms of AZI by assessing the changes in inflammatory states and the nasal flora microbiome associated with successful AZI therapy. Methods: Inclusion of all patients admitted for endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) for CRS operated by the same surgeon (MD). Following their first postoperative visit (2 weeks), all patients will receive nasal irrigations with budesonide (BUDI) twice daily for 4 months and will be re-evaluated. If there is a failure of treatment, patients eligible to receive AZI will be randomized in to two groups, AZI 250mg or a placebo three times a week for 4 months. At every follow-up, complete endoscopic exams will be performed, along with sinus cultures and brush cytology. Population: All patients deemed "high-risk" with CRS admitted for ESS between October 2014 and October 2015.

NCT ID: NCT02024776 Completed - High-risk Patient Clinical Trials

Effectiveness of Prehabilitation Program for High-risk Patients Underwent Abdominal Surgery

Start date: February 1, 2014
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Despite recent advances, morbidity and mortality associated to major abdominal surgery is significant. A poor physical condition and functional status reduces the ability of a person to cope, mentally and physically, with hospitalization and surgery and may compromise functional recovery, potentially leading to postoperative complications and death. Prehabilitation aims to enhance functional capacity preoperatively for better toleration of surgery and to facilitate recovery and eventually the prognosis of the surgical patient. Whereas the benefits of cardiopulmonary fitness programs are well established, the accessibility, sustainability of effects, and impact on the surgical outcome of these programs are unsolved issues. Wellness programs based on integrated care services supported by Information and Communication Technology (ICT) can overcome such limitations. The investigators hypothesized that a prehabilitation program, inducing beneficial effects on exercise capacity, may improve the surgical outcome in high-risk patients. Moreover, ICT support may contribute to increase the adherence and sustainability of this intervention.

NCT ID: NCT00524758 Completed - Open Angle Glaucoma Clinical Trials

Oculusgen (Ologen) Glaucoma MMC Control in Estonia

Start date: July 2007
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

To compare the safety and effectiveness between ologen collagen matrix and mitomycin-C (MMC) in glaucoma surgery. The ologen collagen matrix implantation procedure is same as traditional trabeculectomy except implant the ologen collagen matrix on the top of sclera flap after one loose stich the sclera flap. The MMC application is as the standard.
