Filter by:This project will be a Randomized clinical trial conducted to compare Short-term effects of thoracic spine manual traction with mobilization and Thoracic manipulation in patients with mid thoracic pain and pseudo visceral symptoms. Sample will be collected through non-probability convenient sampling, following eligibility criteria from Sehat Medical complex, Lahore. Eligibility criteria will be Age group between 20 to 40 years both male and female genders with mid thoracic pain having pseudo visceral symptoms. Referred by physician after exclusion of post-surgical condition from past 6 months Neurological, Pulmonological, Cardiac, Musculoskeletal and Esophageal conditions. Participants will be randomly allocated in two groups via sealed envelope method, baseline assessment will be done, Group A participants will be given baseline treatment along with Thoracic spine manual traction with mobilization, Group B participants will be given baseline treatment along with Thoracic manipulation protocol. Pre and post intervention assessment will be done via, Numeric pain rating scale(NPRS), Revised Oswestry thoracic pain disability questionnaire (ODI) and Inclinometer to measure ROM of Thoracic spine,3 sessions per week will be given for 4 weeks, data will be analyzed by using SPSS version 29.
The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to compare a liberal versus restrictive oxygen supply (fraction of inspired oxygen, FiO2) strategy in patients scheduled for thoracic surgery requiring one-lung ventilation during lung isolation. The primary and secondary outcome parameters are: - oxygenation of the blood after 30 minutes of one-lung ventilation, assessed by PaO2/FiO2 ratio - time to lung collapse after start of one-lung ventilation Participants in the control goup will receive an oxygen content of 100% before lung isolation, which will be subsequently decreased to achieve normoxia or mild hyperoxia (PaO2 of 75-120 mmHg). The intervention group will receive the previous, during two-lung ventilation set, oxygen content and after lung isolation oxygen supply will be increased to secure adequate oxygenation of the blood (PaO2 75-120 mmHg) during one-lung ventilation. The investigators hypothesize, that a higher fraction of inspired oxygen may impede hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction of the collapsed lung and thus decrease overall oxygenation performance during one-lung ventilation. Secondary endpoint will be the time to lung collapse, as a lower fraction of inspired oxygen and thus a higher nitrogen content may impede lung collapse.
This is a retrospective study based on the data available in our hospital database for ATAAD patients from January 2020 to December 2021. These patients were divided into two groups according to the surgical procedures of aortic root. This study compared baseline data, perioperative and short-term follow-up results between the two groups to evaluate the efficacy and safety of XJ-procedure in ATAAD.
Acute aortic syndrome (AAS) is a life-threatening emergency condition affecting the upper aorta affecting ~4000 people in the (United Kingdom; UK) a year with an ED misdiagnosis rate as high as 38%. Previous research has identified several strategies combining clinical probability scoring with blood tests (D-Dimer) to rule out the condition but when applied to a large population (ED) with relatively low numbers of actual cases, these result in a high rate of computed tomographic angiography (CTA) scanning. Current guidelines reflect the uncertainty of existing evidence. This study, the first phase of three, aims to describe the characteristics of ED attendances with possible AAS, to determine the service implications of using different diagnostic strategies and inform future research. The investigators plan to recruit all ED attendances with possible AAS over a 1-4 week period. The investigators plan a prospective and retrospective approach to data collection adopting a waived-consent strategy with endpoint measures describing the characteristics of patients presenting with possible AAS.
Objective Complex aortic pathology has been revolutionized with the use of hybrid prostheses such as the Thoraflex® Hybrid Frozen Elephant Trunk (FET). The aim of this study was to evaluate the midterm results of secondary extension of the FET by thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR). Few data are present in the literature regarding the outcomes of this secondary treatment. The investigators perform a prospective study between 2015 and 2022 in a tertiary aortic center on all consecutive patients having undergone TEVAR after FET implantation. The TEVAR endograft covered most of the 10 cm FET module with 2 to 4 mm oversizing. All patients were monitored by computerized angiography (CTA) at 6-month and yearly thereafter. The aim of this study was the feasibility of theses secondary connexion and the mid term outcomes of the endovascular treatment.
Aortic dissection in pregnancy represents a lethal risk to both the mother and fetus, it has yet to yield the optimal therapeutic strategy. The aim of this study was to characterize the clinical features and outcomes in women with pregnancy-related acute aortic dissection, and to suggest therapeutic guidelines.
To explore the association between PAI-1 4G5G polymorphism and the risk of CSA-AKI in Stanford type A dissection patients undergoing open-heart repair surgery.
A single-center prospective study. Patients undergoing surgery for acute type A aortic dissection with femoral arterial cannulation between 2017 and 2022 at the Karolinska University Hospital in Stockholm, Sweden are eligible. Femoral cannulation was performed either with surgical cut-down and arterial puncture under direct vision or percutaneously with planned percutaneous arteriotomy closed using a plug-based arteriotomy closure device (MANTA, Essential Medical Inc., Malvern, Pennsylvania). Data regarding preoperative clinical characteristics and operative details were obtained by medical records review.
This study constructed a retrospective cohort study by retrospectively analyzing the data of all patients with aortic dissection from January 1, 2012 to December 31, 2021 from the Cardiovascular Disease Registration System of Jiangsu Province in China and the data of similar diseases in recent years from National Inpatient Sample database in the United States
Obesity has become one of the world's leading health problems. It is known that obesity causes many diseases and negatively affects the quality of life. For this reason, many conditions that are thought to be effective in obesity and concern the quality of life of patients have been scientifically researched and continue to be investigated. One of them is postoperative pain. Although there are studies stating that there is no relationship between body mass index (BMI) and postoperative pain, when the literature data is examined, it is thought that obesity is a risk factor for postoperative pain and changes pain sensitivity and analgesic needs of patients. There are also studies in the literature stating that the level of postoperative pain increases in parallel with each unit increase in BMI. After thoracic surgery, many analgesic methods have been suggested, including thoracic epidural analgesia (TEA), thoracic paravertebral block (TPVB), intercostal nerve blocks (ICSB), erector spina plane block (ESPB), serratus anterior plane block (SAPB). This study will compare the effects of BMI on postoperative pain in patients undergoing TPVB for postoperative analgesia and thoracoscopic surgery.
