Filter by:In the past two decades, the femtosecond laser (FSL) technology has been introduced in the corneal refractive surgery filed, and brought a remarkable innovation. It can make tissue dissection through photodisruption and plasma cavitation. Initially, the FSL was used predominantly to make a corneal flap when performing laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK), which is followed by stromal ablation using excimer laser. A new surgical technique called femtosecond lenticule extraction (FLEx) has been developed that uses only FSL to dissect two interfaces to create refractive lenticule and then remove it, which is very similar with LASIK. Small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) which is the advanced form of all-in-one FSL refractive technique does not make a corneal flap rather make small incision where the separated refractive lenticule is removed through, and the upper part of the corneal tissue is called cap. Since the clinical outcomes of SMILE were firstly published in 2011, SMILE has been widely used for correction of myopia or myopic astigmatism worldwide. SMILE provides excellent visual outcomes and has advantages including a lesser decrease in corneal sensitivity and absence of flap related complications compared to LASIK. The vector planning method is newly developed astigmatism correction method, which combines refraction astigmatism in 60 % emphasis and corneal astigmatism in 40 % emphasis. The vectorial difference between corneal astigmatism and refractive cylinder at the corneal plane is ocular residual astigmatism (ORA). In normal eyes treated for myopic astigmatism, the ORA typically ranges from 0.73 to 0.81 D. The eyes with high ORA resulted in inferior clinical outcomes after corneal refractive surgery including LASIK, LASEK, and SMILE. The vector planning method was effective in LASIK according to previous study. Therefore we try to confirm the efficacy of vector planning method in SMILE.
A Multicentre Randomized Controlled Trial to Investigate the Effect of Natrox Topical Oxygen Wound Therapy on the Healing rates of Diabetic Foot Ulcers.
Myomectomy operation due to myoma uteri is an operation that can cause serious blood loss. For some anatomical reasons, fundal myomas were removed, while a group of investigators recommended the initiation of a longitudinal incision and some surgeons preferred a transverse incision. the authors aim to show some surgical differences, intraoperative blood loss, and difficulties and ease of removal of myoma in patients with these approaches without consensus. It is also noted that the incision made with the same energy modality is recorded; The effect of energy modality on blood loss and surgical comfort will be examined. Different approaches are used for laparoscopic surgical operations in order to remove myoma from the abdomen. It can be removed from the vagina by colpotomy and can also be minimized in the abdomen by a morselator. In particular, patients with vaginal myoma removed, such as complaints of postoperative dyspareunia will be followed. In this way, the investigators aim to evaluate the methods which have not yet gained clarity in the literature or have not proven superiority to each other.
To compare skin closure via subcuticular suture versus tissue adhesive (Dermabond) in urogynecological robotic surgeries. The primary outcome is incision cosmesis at the 12 week follow up visit. Secondary outcome is the operative time between the two methods of closure.
This will be an open label pilot randomized controlled clinical trial. Women undergoing cesarean delivery will be randomized to have standard wound dressing care or chlorohexidine gluconate (CHG) impregnated wound dressing (ReliaTect™ Post-Op Dressing).
This is a research study to find out whether wound closure (the process of closing the surgical wound after the procedure is complete) with Dermabond PRINEO Skin Closure System (PRINEO) will be faster and improve wound healing compared to standard closing methods after total shoulder replacement. The PRINEO system involves using running stitches to close the wound, and then taping over the sutures with a sticky film that holds the wound closed.
A better suture technology will reduce postoperative incision complications. This study is designed to compare mass continous suture with PDS and interrupted suture with thread on major abdominal incision.
Wound healing after surgery is a complex procedure. Liquefaction of the fat and necrosis of inactivated tissue, as well as blood clots are always accumulated mostly within 24 hours after surgery. As such, early debridement within 24 hours after surgery might improve the healing of the wounds. This study is designed to compare the impact of early debridement of the wound versus regular dressing (24 hours later) on the wound healing. 100 patients will be included in this study, and divided into 2 groups randomly. Then, the healing of the wound, stitch removal time, incidence of incision complications will be compared between the two groups.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of two types of absorbable surgical sutures -- STRATAFIX Spiral PDS Knotless Plus Tissue Control Device and STRATAFIX Spiral MONOCRYL Plus Knotless Tissue Control Device (hereinafter referred to as Spiral PDS Plus and Spiral MONOCRYL Plus) used in thyroid surgery to suture surgical incision.
Guided Bone Regeneration (GBR) is a reliable method to augment insufficient bone volume for implant placement. Membrane exposure is a major complication which is avoided by tension free primary closure. Classically Periosteal Releasing Incision (PRI) is performed to advance the flap. The aim of this trial is to compare Double Flap Incision (DFI), Modified Periosteal Releasing Incision (MPRI) & Coronally Advanced Lingual Flap (CALF) to PRI in terms of flap advancement, postoperative pain & swelling, membrane exposure and the amount of bone gain clinically and radiographically in GBR procedures.
