Filter by:The purpose of this study is to test a randomized, controlled diet and physical activity intervention designed to be simple and address barriers to participation in lifestyle intervention among 16 urinary bladder cancer patients. Aim 1 is to test the feasibility and acceptability of a novel, peri-operative lifestyle intervention, "The Boost Box", among bladder cancer patients receiving cystectomy with or without neo-adjuvant chemotherapy. Aim 2 is to measure the feasibility of collecting data on the intervention effects on complication rate, nutritional status, weight loss, and quality of life post-surgery among bladder cancer patients receiving cystectomy ± neoadjuvant therapy. Secondarily, we will determine the magnitude of association between study group and outcomes to inform power calculations in a future, well-powered trial. Participants will: - attend two dietetic consultations at baseline and post-surgical recovery where nutritional status will be evaluated with patient-generated subjective global assessment (PG-SGA) - complete baseline questionnaires (TCC, FACT-BI-Cys, Short 2012, FAACT, Godin) - receive weekly BOOST boxes - complete pre-surgery weekly BOOST check ins - complete post-surgery weekly BOOST check ins - complete an ASA food recall pre and post-surgery - complete an exercise familiarization consult - record weekly resistance and aerobic exercise performed at home - complete a 6 month follow-up questionnaire - receive compensation Researchers will compare to a Usual Care group to determine differences that could be attributed to the BOOST Box intervention.
The purpose of this research is to validate the prehabilitation program which is defined as a set of interventions meant to prepare the body physically and nutritionally for the cystectomy procedure.
Introduction : The most common technique used for ovarian cystectomy is the stripping technique. After stripping the cyst wall, the subsequent bleeding of the ovarian stromal wound is usually controlled by bipolar coagulation or/and by suturing. However, hemostasis achieved with bipolar coagulation could result in damage to the ovarian reserve. To avoid damage to healthy ovarian tissue, hemostasis using various topical hemostatic agents has been introduced to control post- cystectomy ovarian wound bleeding. Among these, FloSeal (Baxter Healthcare Corporation, Deer- field, IL, USA) is a hemostatic sealant composed of a gelatin-based matrix and thrombin solution. Aim: The aim of the study is to evaluate the impact of topical hemostatic sealants and bipolar coagulation during laparoscopic ovarian benign cyst resection on ovarian reserve by comparing the rates of decrease in anti- Müllerian hormone (AMH). Methods: A randomized prospective data collection was made on women aged 18-45 years who planned to have laparoscopic ovarian cystectomy at one of two institutions (n = 80), Montpellier University Hospital and Nimes University Hospital, France. Patients were randomly divided into two groups treated with either a topical hemostatic sealant (Floseal) or bipolar coagulation for hemostasis. Preoperative, 3-month and 6-month postoperative AMH levels were checked and the rates of decrease of AMH were compared.
The purpose of this study is to compare the difference between four different pain control methods in patients who will be having a cystectomy surgery (surgical removal of the bladder).
A child is eligible to participate in this study because she is having surgery on her ovary. The investigators may obtain a sample of any discarded tissue from the surgery for an ovarian tissue library. This study is being conducted to understand how common ovarian conditions effect the number and quality of ovarian follicles and the reproductive potential of the ovary.
Heavy and oncological surgery is undergoing a major evolution. Some surgical dogmas are falling and care is better rationalized. The interactions between the patient and the caregivers on the other hand, and from the caregiver to the caregiver are favored. Thus was born, about 10 years ago, the principle of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS). But recovery has improved in the patient in the best possible shape in the operating room, and, during the gesture, minimize the negative effects of surgery and anesthesia. Finally, postoperatively, to re-empower the patient as quickly as possible. The interest of this study is the benefit of the quality of life of the patient being treated for cystectomy as part of an enhanced recovery program. This is to argue the diffusion of this program and the care teams for its realization.
Regional anesthesia, also know as a nerve block, is a key component of pain control after major abdominal surgery. Bilateral erector spinae plane block (ESPB) performed at low thoracic level has been shown to be an effective pain control method in case reports. This pilot study aims to further characterize the pain-control characteristics and to provide baseline data for future trials.
Continous evaluation of clinical and oncologic outcome of robot-assisted cystectomy with intracorporeal reconstruction of urinary diversion. Patient Data is entered in an anonymized registry for analyzation.
Objectives and Specific Aims Time efficiency of robot assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) with totally intracorporeal stapled orthotopic neobladder remains a main drawback of this procedure. According to a recent consensus panel, the benchmark for intracorporeal orthotopic neobladder should be 5 hours in high volume centers . This prospective single-stage phase 2 trial is designed to assess the time efficiency of using robotic stapler versus the conventional motorized staplers (Linear stapler articulated Endo GIA™, Covidien) in achieving the target outcome (total operative time <5 hr). Perioperative complications (intraoperative and 30-d postoperative complications according to the Clavien classification system), 30-d/90-d/ 180-d complication and readmission rates, early functional outcomes (time to recovery of urinary continence), 180-d and 360-d neobladder stone formation rates will be analyzed to assess the safety and the cost effectiveness of the procedure.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a goal directed nutritional intervention can reduce the convalescence period for patients undergoing radical cystectomy (RC). The aim is to examine the effect on quality of life of a standard nutritional strategy of resting the bowel till clear signs of bowel recovery and feeding orally after bowel recovery versus a goal-directed nutritional intervention combining oral intake and parenteral nutrition, in patients undergoing RC.
