Evaluating the differences between D2 and D3 lymphadenectomy in laparoscopic right hemicolectomy in patients with right cancer colon post-operative outcome, intra-operative blood transfusion, post-operative ICU admission, anastomotic leakage, lymph node harvesting in the final specimen, and six months follow up and overall survival time after 5-years
The study is a prospective, non-randomized, non-blinded, non-significant risk study enrolling up to 60 healthy adult subjects consented to undergo a 1-unit whole blood draw procedure. Subjects will wear the study device (CM-1500) while positioned in either a supine or reclined position during the blood draw and study-required physiological parameters will be captured pre-, during, and post-donation.
Tranexamic acid is a medication used to treat or prevent excessive blood loss during surgery. Previous studies have shown tranexamic acid (TXA) reduces blood loss and post-operative blood transfusion rate without significant complications. In addition, many meta-analyses have confirmed these results. This study also aims to determine how safe and effective tranexamic acid treatment is for different patients undergoing primary total knee arthroplasty.
The primary goal of this study will be to determine if perioperative IV Tranexamic Acid (TXA) administration will reduce intra-operative bleeding and subsequently improve visual clarity during surgery and reduce operative traction time in patients undergoing hip arthroscopy. Additionally, this study aims to determine whether IV TXA injections will reduce post-operative pain and affect hip-specific patient-reported outcomes in patients undergoing hip arthroscopy.
Tourniquet application in total knee arthroplasty has many benefits and might have a role in the incidence of peri-operative complications the aim of this research: is to look into the effectiveness of the limited application of tourniquet during primary unilateral total knee arthroplasty and compare the perioperative complications with the standard full-time application.
Lower extremity amputation patients represent a frail group of patients with extensive comorbidity. The most common indication of amputation is ischemia, infection and concomitant ischemic pain due to underlying chronic disease, especially arteriosclerosis and diabetes. Prolonged general anesthesia and surgery as well as increased blood loss may result in impaired patient safety. Previous studies have shown total blood loss approx. 1000 mL in transfemoral amputations (TFA). Substantial blood loss during surgery increases the risk of anemic complications and death for this already weakened patient group. The aim of this randomized controlled trial is to improve patient safety by exploring the possibility of a more precautious surgical procedure for TFA. Hence, investigating the total blood loss and secondary differences in complications after TFA between patients operated with use of pneumatic tourniquet versus no tourniquet. Total blood loss is calculated via Nadlers approach. From a pilot series, sample size was calculated to 124, allocated 1:1 in two groups of 62 participants, to ensure detection of at least 200 mL difference in total blood loss. The hypothesis is that use of tourniquet will decrease the total blood loss, the amount of blood transfusions, time of surgery and complications related to postoperative anemia without a higher rate of adverse events. The secondary and explorative outcomes are blood transfusions, intraoperative blood loss, length of stay, time of surgery, risk of readmission, risk of re-operation, risk of mortality, complications during admission, quality of life (QoL), prosthesis use and the prosthesis-specific survey Prothesis Evaluation Questionnaire (PEQ). QoL is measured with the validated questionnaire EQ-5D-5L preoperatively, and at 3, 6, and 12 months postoperatively. The possibility to enhance patient safety is highly relevant, and this trial will aid in establishing evidence-based guidelines for TFA surgery.
The study is a prospective, randomized, double blinded, placebo controlled trial that aims to investigate the hypothesis that early administration of tranexamic acid (TXA) following diagnosis of hip fracture will lower pre and postoperative blood loss and transfusion rates. Patients who present to the hospital with a hip fracture will be recruited and randomized into two treatment arms. The treatment group will receive 1950mg of oral TXA (three tablets, 650 mg each) and the control group will be given three tablets of oral placebo while in the Emergency Department. Patients will then be admitted to the Orthopaedic Trauma service and treated surgically with cephalomedullary nail, hemiarthroplasty, sliding hip screw, percutaneous screws, or total hip arthroplasty.
The purpose of this study is to access the efficacy of the drug tranexamic acid in reducing blood loss during burn excision surgery.
This is a randomized controlled trial, aiming to evaluate the effects of time window for umbilical cord clamping during cesarean section on the health outcomes of offspring hemoglobin，maternal blood loss，and children's growth and development. It will be conducted in Liuyang city and Huantai county of China, and the targeted sample size is 360 (180 in each site). All the eligible pregnant women will be randomly assigned to one of the four groups (three intervention groups and one control group), and their babies will be followed up to 18 months of age.
