Filter by:The Study Objective: To evaluate the clinical utility of a 3D model with 2D CT/MRI scans during simulated preoperative surgical planning of open, laparoscopic, or robotic-assisted anatomic lung resection (segmentectomy, lobectomy) or Lower Anterior Resection (LAR) procedures.
Low health literacy patients are a vulnerable population at high-risk for surgical disparities including longer hospital stays, more complications, and more readmissions. This study will adapt enhanced recovery programs (ERPs) to low health literacy patients with a multilevel, health literacy-based implementation strategy (called VISACT - VISuAl aids, Coach providers in communication, and Train organizations in health literacy) to improve ERP fidelity and thereby outcomes. In the final aim of this project (Specific Aim 3), the VISACT intervention will be tested in a pilot trial. Findings from this study will lay the foundation for a multi-institutional stepped-wedge trial and establish key principles for adapting interventions to eliminate disparities.
PASSAGE is a national multicenter retrospective and prospective observational cohort study in which patients who will undergo colorectal surgery will be enrolled.
The enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocols are multimodal perioperative care pathways designed to achieve early recovery after surgical procedures by maintaining preoperative organ function and reducing the profound stress response following surgery. This type of approach has led to an earlier hospital discharge of patients with a low rate of postoperative complications. Purpose: the aim of this study is to evaluate an ERAS protocol with fist-day hospital discharge and domiciliary follow-up for minimal invasive colectomy. Method: unicenter pilot study of patients with indication of minimally invasive right colectomy or sigmidectomy who will follow an ERAS protocol according to international guidelines and will be discharged the first day of surgery with a domiciliary follow-up. Hospital readmission is considered as the primary outcome. A total sample of 40 cases is considered, with 20 right colectomies and 20 sigmoidectomies. An independent analysis of both techniques will be performed.
Colorectal cancer is the third most common cancer in men, after prostate and lung cancer. It represents 11.2% of all new cases of male cancer. In women, this cancer is the second most common after breast cancer (11.3% of all new cases of female cancer).
Evaluation of preoperative physical capacity and its evolution in the postoperative period in older patients after undergoing laparoscopic surgery for colorectal cancer, with the test: - Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB) After the inclusion of the first 10 patients, a preliminary feasibility study will be carried out and thus we have coverage of this pilot study.
