Filter by:This is a single-center, double-arm, open-label, randomized feasibility study that will determine whether a novel clinical decision aid accessed via the electronic health record will be acceptable to both cancer survivors and their cardiologists, will favorably impact appropriate medication use and cardiac imaging surveillance, and will improve clinician and patient decision-making, perception, and behavior towards cardioprotective medication usage and cardiovascular disease imaging utilization.
Breast cancer is the most common cancer amongst women in terms of frequency, with more than 50 000 newly diagnosed cases per year in France. The average 5-year survival rate for women with breast cancer is around 85%. Surgical treatment by total mastectomy concerns around 30% of cases. For patients who have been treated for breast cancer by total mastectomy, secondary breast reconstructions are often carried out via excess abdominal fat flaps of DIEP type. Postoperative partial fat necrosis is a common complication of breast reconstruction. This necrosis is qualified as pathological when it is palpable or when there are symptoms leading to pain, deformation, or leakage. Necrosis occurs in the first 6 months after surgery. Diagnosis is carried out by the detection of a nodule of fat necrosis measuring at least 5 mm on the ultrasound. Partial flat necrosis results from ischemia reperfusion (IR) to the fat tissues during reconstruction. IR leads to inflammatory lesions, edema, capillary occlusion that can lead to tissue necrosis. The deleterious impact of IR has been shown on the organs (liver, kidney) on muscular, cutaneous and adipose tissues in humans and animals. Ischaemic preconditioning is a procedure used in organ transplant surgery, allowing a better tolerance of the graft for ischemia reperfusion, without further complications. It is used in usual practice for kidney or liver transplants; short cycles of ischemia reperfusion are carried out on the organ pedicle before harvesting using cold ischemia (out of the donor's body) pre-transplant. Ischaemic preconditioning before reconstruction has been studied in animal models but not in human reconstruction surgery, although it seems to be beneficial. For patients undergoing total mastectomy after being diagnosed with breast cancer, we hypothesize that ischaemic preconditioning, usually used for organ transplants, could decrease adipose tissue lesions caused by ischemia reperfusion after breast reconstruction with DIEP (deep inferior epigastric perforator) flaps.
The study will be a prospective, randomized, double- blinded placebo, single center pilot clinical trial. Patients with acute ischemic stroke due to large vessel occlusion undergoing endovascular thrombectomy will be included. The treatment group will receive 200 mg intravenous/oral minocycline hydrochloride in addition to endovascular thrombectomy for a total of 21 days. The control group will receive standard medical and endovascular care along with a similar looking placebo. Patients will be randomized to the treatment or control group by the Pharmacy eliminating the selection bias. The patient and evaluator will be blind to the allocation of patients further minimizing the bias. Through randomization we expect to achieve two groups that are comparable in their baseline clinical characteristics.
This study is designed to evaluate the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of balovaptan compared with placebo in participants with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) at risk of developing malignant cerebral edema (MCE)
This study intends to further reveal the effect of RIC in stroke-related insomnia and explore its potential mechanisms.
The aim of the study is to determine if LongShengZhi Capsule is effective and safe in patients with ischemic stroke in comparison to placebo. This trial is a prospective, multicenter, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blinded, parallel-group, superiority trial.
This trial is designed to assess the safety and effectiveness of the ThrombX Retriever.
Critical limb threatening ischemia "CLTI 'is not a separate local disease but also it is a part of generalized vascular disorder. A clinical syndrome that can be presented by many symptoms and signs as rest pain, gangrene and chronic ulceration more than 2 weeks (1).
The study aiming to demonstrate the baseline characteristics and outcomes of patients undergoing revascularization by PCI vs those kept only on medical treatment, based on CMR viability assessment.
Avoiding warm ischemia time during vascular anastomosis of the renal allograft is important to prevent damage. The investigators are studying a cooling device that may control the temperature of the renal allograft during transplant surgery; attempting to keep temperatures at or below 5°C for at least 60 minutes. If found effective, this could eliminate warm ischemia and potentially prevent damage to transplanted kidneys.
