High dose heparin regimens are required in cardiac surgery under cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) and this may increase postoperative bleeding. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of heparin dose calculated according to lean body weight on intraoperative and postoperative bleeding.
Children in hospitals are frequently subjected to painful procedures, including those involving needles, which are a common source of pain in children. In addition, procedural pain and anxiety can lead to various consequences for the child, as well for the parent and the nurse performing the procedure. The use of physical and psychological interventions is recommended for optimal relief of procedural pain. Moreover, these interventions can be used alone or in combination with pharmacological treatment. Although several analgesics exist and are used in clinical practice, nonpharmacological interventions aimed at the psychological component of pain are not well known and are not always used by the nurses in the pediatric practice. Distracting interventions are widely studied in the literature as it is an effective psychological intervention in the relief of pain and anxiety in children during needle-related pain procedures. The distraction by the therapeutic clown is a multi-modal intervention with multi-sensory effects and appears promising in pain relief and procedural anxiety, but not much studies have been done in the context above. The therapeutic clown can adapt to the age of the child, its culture, its reality of care and can prepare the child for painful procedures. The aim of this study is to assess the feasibility, acceptability and preliminary effects of distraction by therapeutic clown on pain and anxiety of children aged two to 17 years and the level of anxiety of the parents and nurses during a painful procedure in children. OBJECTIFS AND QUESTIONS: 1. Assess the feasibility and acceptability of distraction by therapeutic clown with children during painful procedures. a) Is the distraction intervention by the therapeutic clown feasible and acceptable during painful procedures? 2. Assess the preliminary effects of distraction by therapeutic clown on pain and anxiety of children and the anxiety of parents and nurses. a) What are the preliminary effects of the therapy clown distraction on children's pain and anxiety, and the anxiety of parents and nurse.
To control apatinib and capecitabine combination to maintain treating metastatic colorectal cancer.
Assess the renal changes in patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver (NAFLD).

In this prospective randomized clinical trial we plan to compare two fertilization method which are widely used during in vitro fertilization (IVF) treatment. Outcome of conventional IVF and intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) treatment will be compared in this study.
Post-operative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) is a fairly well-documented clinical phenomenon. Investigators will determine whether amantadine can reduce the occurrence of POCD in elderly patients with major abdominal surgery.
The process of ageing affects at the same time the sensory, cognitive and driving functions. Furthermore, ageing is often accompanied by pathologies increasing the effects of the senescence. An ageing subject will have then more difficulties in maintaining balance control and will have a falling risk with sometimes critical consequences for the quality of life. The risk of fall is estimated by tests at the same time of current life and with scores of sensitivity and specificity which must be improved. In a review including 25 studies (2 314 subjects), show a sensitivity of 32 % and a specificity of 73 % on the test "Timed Up and Go" (TUG) with a threshold at 13.5 seconds. In addition, the fall occurs in a multifactorial context when a subject interacts with his environment. It therefore seems essential to test balance control or falling risk of individuals as close as possible to the situations of daily life. This research, based on the TUG, will aim to assess the neuro-psycho-motor behavior of subjects in situations close to daily life using a Virtual Reality (VR) and Human Metrology platform. The results could ultimately lead to increased sensitivity and specificity in assessing the risk of falling with a TUG performed in VR, compared to the classic TUG, which is commonly used by healthcare professionals and thus allow for earlier or more appropriate management of the subject in preventing the risk of falling. This could allow healthcare professionals to better understand the risk of falling and thus guide medical recommendations and prescribing, particularly in terms of appropriate physical activity programs.
This is an open-label, single center, non-randomized, phase Ib trial to evaluate safety and efficacy of TQB2450 injection combined with anlotinib in patients with advanced mutation positive non-small cell lung cancer.
