Vasoplegic syndrome (VS) is a common and serious complication of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) procedures associated with a significant increase in morbidity and mortality. VS is defined as significant hypotension, high or normal cardiac outputs, low systemic vascular resistance, low cardiac filling pressures, and vasopressor requirement despite adequate fluid resuscitation following CPB. Extensive research has been performed regarding the pathophysiologic response to CPB and risk factors associated with VS. No safe and effective preventive strategy has gained widespread use. Supportive care with intravenous (IV) vasopressors has thus been adopted as standard of care. The use of these medications, while effective in the majority of patients, generally necessitates close monitoring in an intensive care unit (ICU) setting. These patients are subject to prolonged ICU and hospital stays, as well as the potential complications of prolonged use of central venous lines (CVL) required to give these medications. Recent studies suggest midodrine, a generic oral vasopressor, may accelerate the decline in IV vasopressor requirements in select ICU patients. At our institution, the addition of midodrine to IV vasopressors for the treatment of VS has been observed to be effective in reducing IV vasopressor duration. No literature exists describing the use of midodrine in this patient population. The goal of this study is to investigate the novel use of midodrine in CPB surgery complicated by VS. Ultimately, we hope to produce literature supporting its use that may be applied on a global scale to improve patient care
The hyperventilation syndrome is a quite frequent pathology, affecting up to 10% of the general population and 40% of the asthmatic population. Its physiopathology is still badly known and even if it is a benign affection, its associated comorbidities and symptomatology greatly decrease the patients' quality of life. Yet, no medicinal treatments have been proved useful, but prescribers noticed improvements after physiotherapy. Given that the physiotherapy impact on hyperventilation syndrome is not well described in the literature, this study aims to scientifically ascertain physiotherapy benefits on quality of life and symptomatology in hyperventilation syndrome-suffering patients.
This study is investigating sweat gland function during on and off states of the spinal cord stimulator, in patients with failed back surgery syndrome.
Cangrelor is an intravenous P2Y12 inhibitor utilized as a bridge to achieve adequate platelet inhibition until oral P2Y12 inhibitors achieve their full antiplatelet effects in patients undergoing coronary stenting. Although in this setting the potent oral P2Y12 inhibitor prasugrel is commonly utilized, there is very limited data on the optimal approach for switching between these therapies. The overarching aim of this investigation is to rule out a drug drug interaction (DDI) when cangrelor and prasugrel are concomitantly administered in patients undergoing coronary stenting.
This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of 3% Diquafosol Ophthalmic Solution for visual display terminal (VDT)-associated dry eye and to investigate the mechanism of treatment.
The aim of the study is to compare the effects of stretching exercises & muscle energy techniques in the management of lower cross syndrome and to find the effective treatment in the lower cross syndrome management.
The aim of this study is to better understand the effects of transcranial photobiomodulation (tPBM) on neural oscillations of individuals diagnosed with Down syndrome.
This cohort study implements patient reported outcome measures (PROMs) for patients with bodily stress syndrome in a clinic for functional disorders.
CRPS is a complex pain condition that usually develops in response to trauma and immobilization which is very painful and debilitating. There is no consensus about the underlying mechanisms which might be a combination of mentally and physically factors. At the moment, better diagnostic clarification and better pain relieving treatment is needed. The aim of this study is to investigate changes in the perception of pain in patients with Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS), and whether this perception can be affected by treatment with transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) on the painful area. The study will consist of two parts. One in which patients' perception of pain will be compared to the perception of pain in healthy controls. Another in which the included patients are randomly allocated into a group receiving medical treatment plus treatment with transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation on the painful area or in a group receiving medical treatment as usual (MED).Patients will be evaluated four times. At the start of the study, immediately after treatment, and again at 6 and 12 months after treatment. The evaluation consists of an overall assessment of pain, response to standardized sensory stimuli, and questionnaires about quality of life, physical capacity and mentally/socially well-being.
