Filter by:With this pilot investigation, the investigators aim to challenge the reliance on opiate analgesia following colon and rectal surgery. Narcotic misuse and abuse is a pressing public health concern, and reduction in prescription rates could help to mitigate this issue. The goal of this pilot study is to establish feasibility of sufficient post-operative pain control after colectomy using non-narcotic analgesics. The investigators hypothesize that patients will be able to manage their post-operative pain without narcotic intervention, while minimizing side effects and complications. This initial pilot study will provide proof-of-concept for a larger, randomized investigation on non-narcotic analgesia after colectomy.
Purpose: The purpose of this study is to create prediction models for when major complications occur after elective colectomy surgery. Justification: After surgery, patients can have multiple complications. Accurate risk prediction after surgery is important for determining an appropriate level of monitoring and facilitating patient recovery at home. Objectives: Investigators aim to develop and internally validate prediction models to predict time-to-complication for each individual major medical complications (pneumonia, myocardial infarction (MI) (i.e. heart attacks), cerebral vascular event (CVA) (i.e. stroke), venous thromboembolism (VTE) (i.e. clots), acute renal failure (ARF) (i.e. kidney failure), and sepsis (i.e. severe infections)) or adverse outcomes (mortality, readmission) within 30-days after elective colectomy. Data analysis: Investigators will be analyzing a data set provided by the National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (NSQIP). Descriptive statistics will be performed. Cox proportional hazard and machine learning models will be created for each complication and outcome outlined in "Objectives". The performances of the models will be assessed and compared to each other.
Evaluation of the benefit of non-opioid general anaesthesia on postoperative pain in laparoscopic colonic surgery
This Controlled Randomized Clinical Trial aimed at determining the effectiveness of a modified RR intervention in reducing post-operative pain and psychological symptoms in patients undergoing surgery intervention. Researches hypothesized that compared to controls patients undergoing modified RR intervention were characterized by 1. improved capability to discriminate emotions from bodily feelings; 2. reduce emotional distress; 3. reduced pain perception. Moreover, researches hypothesized that (4) these effects were maintained over time.
This is a multicenter, Phase 3, open-label, safety, tolerability, and characterization of pharmacokinetics study of the INL 001 (bupivacaine HCl) implant, at 300 mg, in patients following various soft-tissue surgeries: open ventral hernia repair, abdominoplasty, open abdominal hysterectomy, laparoscopic-assisted colectomy, and reduction mammoplasty.
Objective. The aim of this study was to evaluate short-term outcomes of performing intracorporeal versus extracorporeal anastomosis in laparoscopic right hemicolectomy for right colon neoplasm. Background. Despite advances in laparoscopic approach in colorectal surgery and the clear benefit of this approach over open surgery, the technical difficulty in performing intracorporeal anastomosis causes certain groups continue performing it extracorporeally in right colon surgery. Methods. This study was a prospective multicenter randomized trial with two parallel groups being done intracorporeal anastomosis (IA) or extracorporeal anastomosis (EA) in laparoscopic right hemicolectomy for right colon neoplasm, carried out between January 2016 and December 2018.
The purpose of this study is to determine if using a different type of injection of local anesthestic (pain medicine) in between the muscle layers of the abdominal wall (called a quadratus lumborum block) will improve pain control and be easier to manage after surgery than the current standard of care epidural (spinal injection) pain relief for patients undergoing laparoscopy colectomy.
This project has for objective to demonstrate that the increase of the distance "Patient home - center of treatment" may be associated with significant, other noticeable, noted events. This distance may also be available in the Rouen University Hospital. The study of the association in this distance and the delay in initiating chemotherapy after surgery in patients treated at the CHU correspond to a pilot study prior to the completion of the analysis at the regional scale.
Right colectomy (hemicolectomy) involves the removal of the cecum, the ascending colon, the hepatic flexure, the first one-third of the transverse colon, part of the terminal ileum, and the associated regional fat and lymph nodes, and is the accepted treatment for malignant neoplasms of the right colon. A minimally invasive approach is commonly used for right colectomy, with studies reporting reduced complications, less blood loss, and hospital stay when compared to an open approach. However, there remains controversy regarding whether robotic assistance is advantageous for this technique and whether an intracorporeal (ICA) or extracorporeal anastomosis (ECA) is best. MIRCAST is a prospective, observational, international, multi-center, 4-parallel-cohorts study. Sites or surgeons will select a cohort of the study for which they are qualified. Four cohorts will be the subject of study: 1. Robotic Right Colectomy with ICA 2. Robotic Right Colectomy with ECA 3. Laparoscopic Right Colectomy with ICA 4. Laparoscopic Right Colectomy with ECA All patient assessments will be done according to the sites standard of care. Parameters routinely recorded during right colectomy surgery will be collected prospectively. Enrolled subjects will undergo assessments at the following intervals: pre-operative, operative, discharge, 30 days, 3 months, 1 year and 2 years post-surgery.
The transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block can be used to reduce pain in patients who get abdominal surgery. TAP blocks are given with a local anesthetic. The purpose of this study is to compare pain medication usage after surgery between two different types of local anesthetic: liposomal bupivacaine and standard bupivacaine.
