Filter by:This study aims to assess the efficacy and safety of prophylactic intraoperative norepinephrine infusion versus the standard technique on decreasing the incidence of intraoperative hypotension in infants undergoing Kasai portoenterostomy operation.
The purpose of this study is to assess and compare the conditions for tracheal intubation obtained with Modified Time Principle Induction (MTPI) and that obtained with classic induction (CI). This study will compare the efficiency of tracheal intubation with the two induction techniques, as well as evaluate for potential adverse events.
the frequency of tussis, nausea and vomiting, and/or body movements observed at the insertion of the endoscope into the pharyngeal cavity or within 5 min of endoscope insertion.
The purpose of this trial is to investigate whether the effect of a low-dose dexmedetomidine infusion will decrease propofol consumption or not through a double blinded randomized controlled trial done in children cancer hospital 57357.
Several studies in major abdominal surgery demonstrated that preoperative optimization of surgical patients through prehabilitation is associated with fewer postoperative complications. However, patients' response to preoperative optimization is unpredictable, and there are no studies confirming the real benefit in pancreatic surgery. Aims: To assess the benefits of pre-rehabilitation in pancreatic surgery, and identify those factors associated with an effective optimization. Secondary aims: impact of prehabilitation on nutritional status, sarcopenia, quality of life, inflammation markers, postoperative complications and hospital stay compared to low-risk patients. Design: An objective multimodal assessment will be performed on those patients who are candidates to pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) to identify patients at high-risk of postoperative complications. These patients will undergo prehabilitation and response will be evaluated. Intervention:Multimodal Prehabilitation will include: 1. Physical and cardiopulmonary training followed by a personalized program according to basal aerobic capacity, patient circumstances and compliance, community-based and remote-controlled with information and communication technology (ICT). 2. Personalized nutrition program adapted to the underlying disease (exocrine insufficiency, cachexia and sarcopenia, diabetes). 3. Treatment of anxiety and depression. Subjects: 56 consecutive patients who are high-risk candidates (anaerobic threshold 11ml/kg/min at CPET) for PD recruited at Hospital Clinic of Barcelona. Postoperative variables will be compared to low-risk patients evaluated during the same study period. Analysis: The main variable will be aerobic capacity (VO2max, AT). Secondary variables (before and after the program) will be nutritional status, sarcopenia, quality of life, inflammation markers and immune response, hospital stay, complications, 90-days mortality and costs.
The investigators will be studying the sedative drug dexmedetomidine using hybrid PET/fMRI/EEG imaging to better understand the neuropharmacology of anesthesia/artificially induced sleep.
Through this quantitative, multivariate factorial experimental research of the Parallel Randomized Clinical Trial type, the investigators will try to analyze the effectiveness in reducing levels of anxiety, stress and pain through pre-anesthetic assessment and pain neuroscience education in patients undergoing elective total abdominal hysterectomy.
The study investigates the technical feasibility of using mobile health trackers for monitoring of hospitalized patients. Therefore the measurement accuracy of several vital parameters in postoperative hospitalized patients will be compared to clinical gold standard. Factors that could have an influence on the measurement accuracy of the mobile sensors will be investigated.Furthermore patient compliance in continous use of mobile health trackers and technical feasibility of needed data flow will be analyzed. In addition, patients' activity levels are recorded and correlated with various clinical parameters.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the hemodynamics and adverse event profile in comparison between two treatment arms, one using an admixture of propofol and etomidate at a ratio by volume of 25%/75% (P2E7), and one using an admixture of propofol and etomidate at a ratio by volume of 75%/25% (P7E2), for anesthesia during endoscopic procedures at the Clements University Hospital (CUH) endoscopy lab (Endo).
The overall objective of this study is to describe the incidence of postoperative pulmonary complications in patients with a positive and negative AIR-test result. Second, the investigators wish to describe the incidence of a positive AIR-test and its association with the development of PPC. In addition, the investigators aim to describe whether mechanical ventilation strategy differs between patients with a positive and negative AIR-test.
