Filter by:The study investigates the influence of non-synchronized bag-device-ventilation and intermittent positive pressure ventilation (IPPV), as recommended in the current resuscitation guidelines of the European Resuscitation Concil (tidal Volume (Vt) = 5-6 mL/kg body weight, respiratory rate = 10 min-1) and Chest Compression Synchronized Ventilation (pInsp = 40 mbar; respiratory rate = chest compression rate) with regard to achieving a sufficient tidal volume and the tightness of various supraglottic airway devices (laryngeal mask, i-Gel-laryngeal mask, laryngeal tube) and endotracheal intubation.
This will be a prospective, interventional, single-center, randomized, controlled, comparative study comparing a total of 10 patients treated with BTM and SOC in wounds diagnosed with Hidradenitis suppurativa (5 in each group).
Open-heart surgeries such as coronary artery bypass grafting and valve replacements have been used to improve patient outcomes related to cardiac symptoms, prolongation of life, and health-related quality of life. Recovery from cardiac surgery is not entirely determined by physical attributes and medical treatment, but social and psychological factors may also influence the process of postoperative short and long-term recovery. The objective of this study is to find out the Comparative Effects of Buteyko Exercise and Corpse-Pose Technique on Physical Health and Quality of Life in Post-Cardiac Surgery Patients. This study will be a Randomized controlled trial and will be conducted in Faisalabad institute of cardiology after ethical approval. The study will be completed within the duration of 10 months after approval of synopsis. Nonprobability convenience sampling technique will be used. The sample size of 46 patients will be taken: 25 post-cardiac surgery patients in each group with a 10% attrition rate. There will be two groups in this study one will be given with the Buteyko breathing technique and other will be provided with corpse-pose technique. Treatment protocol for both techniques will be 4 weeks with 3 sets per day. A pre assessment at week 1 and a final assessment at week 4 will be made by using SF-36 questionnaire. Data will be analyzed on SPSS-25.
Sacral neuromodulation (SNM) is an established treatment option for patients with faecal incontinence. The location of the stimulating electrode is considered to be essential for treatment success. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the position of SNM electrodes after using the conventional implantation technique and to compare our results with those of the preliminary study, where the standardised fluoroscopy-guided implantation technique was used. In this cadaver study, SNM electrodes will be implanted bilaterally in 5 lower body specimens. After electrode placement the pelvis was dissected to describe the exact position of the SNM electrodes.
Our study first aims to develope a realistic cadaver model of hemoptysis based on Thiel's embalmed cadavers. Secondly, participants will intubate the hemoptysis cadaver model with (a) the direct laryngoscopy with MacIntosh blade, (b) the videolaryngoscopy with McGrath XBlade and (c) the videolaryngoscopy with McGrath XBlade and a suction advance before the optic of the camera. We hypothesis that, in simulated hemoptysis on the Thiel's embalmed cadaver, the rate of failed intubation at first try will be different depending on the laryngoscope used.
Objectives and rationale: Optimal burn management involves removing all the dead or burned tissue as early as feasible and cover with an autograft called split thickness skin graft (STSG) taken from the patient. This procedure creates a new wound on the patient and sometimes, when the burn covers very large portion of the patient body, there is a lack of healthy skin to use for this purpose. Under those circumstances, donated cadaver skin is used as a temporary coverage until the patient´s own donor site wound has healed enough to be used again. The proposed clinical study aims to determine if treatment with fish skin is an alternative to cadaver skin as a temporary coverage for debrided full-thickness burns prior to STSG in terms of autograft take, time to heal, quality of healing (scarring), pain and adverse effects.
This study aims to better understand the dispersion of local anesthetic on the Erector Spinae Block, a new technique developed for analgesia. It consists on injection of local anesthetic around the posterior muscles of the Spine. In this study, the investigators will make the injection with coloring solution on cadavers and by dissection will note the dispersion of the solution according to injectate volume. The investigators hypothesize more volume allows bigger spread and will allow new indications of this technique in perioperative analgesia and treatment of chronic Pain
Lumbar Quadrant Blockade is a recent analgesic technique consisting of the injection of local anesthetic around the lumbar square muscle. It was initially described as a technique for abdominal wall analgesia, but later studies have increased the range of indications for laparoscopic and lower limb surgeries. There are several techniques described but with differences in the literature at the point of injection and volume of anesthetic. The exact mechanism of visceral analgesia has not yet been determined. The objective of this study is to determine the dispersion of local anesthetic as a variable dependent on the volume of local anesthetic and injection site and elucidate the mechanisms of analgesia.
Background: The use of simulation and cadaveric laboratory training are highly beneficial for faculty and advanced trainees, but its usefulness for third-year medical students rotating through OB-GYN or general surgery is unknown. Objective: To determine if a two-day intensive, cost-effective review of procedural skills and anatomy using the simulation laboratory and cadaver-based dissection improves performance of third-year medical students on the National Board of Medical Examiners (NBME) Shelf and USMLE Step 2 board examination and during pre- and post-test demonstrations. Significance: If proven effective, implementation of a short, inexpensive, and comprehensive course highlighting anatomical and procedural skills during the third year of medical school could be implemented. Design Methods: The investigators will conduct a 1:1 randomization of third-year medical students rotating at all Mayo sites (Jacksonville, Rochester, and Scottsdale). The students will either participate in traditional education (N=20) as is currently taking place or traditional education plus cadaver-based/simulation-based learning (N=20). Third-year medical students rotating in OB-GYN or surgery will be eligible to enroll. Anticipated Outcomes: Knowledge-based examination results as well as performance outcomes will be improved and procedural skills and overall satisfaction will be increased.
