Surgical evacuation CSDH via burr hole craniostomy appears to be the most widely practiced treatment technique worldwide and outcomes are generally favorable. In previous reports, bilateral CSDH was raised as a predictor of rapid deterioration and worse outcomes attributable to brain herniation, in comparison with unilateral ones. Nevertheless, the optimal surgical considerations in bilateral CSDH still remain controversial. Thus, this study principally aims to finding out whether consecutive removal of bilateral CSDH really poses a complication risk. The secondary objectives of the study were to obtain information about the one-year prognosis of bilateral CSDH and to find factors that affect the prognosis, if any. Inclusion criteria Symptomatic adult (≥18 years-old) patients with bilateral hemispheric CSDH Exclusion criteria Patients with hematoma thickness smaller than 10 mm on either side, and those who previously underwent any cranial surgery Randomization Simple randomization, without blocking, will be used to divide patients into two groups simultaneous burr hole craniostomy (Group-1) and consecutive burr hole craniostomy (Group-2). Clinical Evaluation Neurological examination and scoring systems (Glasgow coma scale and Markwalder Grading) will be used. Radiological Evaluation Radiological evaluations will be made with CT and MR imaging. Operation Patients in group-1 were fixed in supine position with their heads in neutral and flexion position. Bilateral burr holes were made one after another, the dural surfaces were exposed at the same time, then the outer membranes of both sides opened and hematomas evacuated simultaneously. All the patients underwent a drainage system, performed with the insertion of a silicone tube into the subdural space and tunneled under the scalp to the exit point. In group-2, hematoma with a greater thickness was removed first (if thickness was equal on both sides, first incision was made on the right side). The head in supine position was rotated to the side with a smaller hemorrhage thickness. Previously, burr holes were made, the dural surfaces were exposed, the outer membrane opened, and the hematoma was evacuated at one side. Then, drainage system inserted into the subdural space. After the procedure of the first side was completed, as a consecutive process, the head was rotated to the other side, and the same procedure was repeated. The contralateral hematoma was evacuated. Follow-Up Depending on the subdural fluid collected, all drains will be removed within post-operative 36-48 hours. Only the patients with epileptic history and on epileptic medication will receive postoperative antiepileptics. In the postoperative period, a comprehensive evaluation encompassing neurological examinations and CT imaging will be performed. This evaluation protocol will be executed immediately following the surgical procedure, after the removal of surgical drains (usually on the second postoperative day), and at designated intervals of the 1st, 3rd, 6th, and 12th months to monitor patient progress and recovery.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate if wound drains could influence postoperative spinal epidural hematoma (POSEH) in biportal endoscopic spinal surgery (BESS) procedures for decompression of lumbar spinal stenosis.
The goal of this observational study was to evaluate the safety and acceptability of the ShangRing device for male circumcision among men in Shinyanga, Tanzania. The main question aims to answer both provider acceptability (practicality of device use and placement and removal times) and client acceptability (comfort during placement and removal, experience while wearing the ring, and penile appearance after healing). Participants voluntarily underwent male circumcision using the ShangRing device and before being discharged, were interviewed about their experience. Participants were also interviewed at device removal day (day 7), during a follow-up phone call (day 10), a sample were selected to participate in in-depth interviews (day28), and finally all men were asked to return for a follow-up visit (day 49).
Chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH) is commonly managed through burr hole evacuation. This study evaluates the feasibility of trans burr hole sonography as an alternative postoperative imaging modality. A pilot study on 20 patients who underwent burr hole surgery for CSDH was therefore planned. Postoperative imaging included both CT and sonographic examinations through the burr hole. We assessed the ability to measure residual subdural fluid thickness sonographically compared to CT.
Comparison of analgesia between ultrasound guided supracondylar radial nerve block and hematoma block for closed reduction of distal end radius fractures- an observational study
The aim of this clinical investigation is to collect skin lesion area data for the comparison of the agreement among the results obtained between the following three wound area measurement methods: - Ruler using the Kundin method, - Investigational software Clinicgram Euclides - Digital planimetry with Adobe Photoshop The clinical data retrieved in this study will allow the clinical validation of the safety and safety of the investigation software Clinicgram Euclides.
Among postoperative complications in breast surgery, hematoma is the most common occurrence. While mostly self-limited, in some cases surgical revision is mandatory when hematoma occurs. Among percutaneous procedures, preliminary studies demonstrated the efficacy of vacuum-assisted breast biopsy(VAB) in evacuating breast hematomas. The aim of the present study is to investigate the efficacy of VAB system in evacuating hematoma, symptoms resolution, and avoidance of surgery. From January 2016 to January 2020 ≥25 mm symptomatic breast hematoma after breast conserving surgery(BCS) and percutaneous procedures were retrospectively enrolled from a perspective maintained database. Preoperative demographic and clinical data were collected. Hematoma maximum diameter, Estimated hematoma volume, total procedure time, and visual analog scale (VAS) score prior ultrasound(US) Vacuum-Assisted Evacuation (VAEv) were recorded. At one week VAS score, residual hematoma volume, and complications were recorded. Study outcomes were defined as clearance of ≥70% postoperative hematoma, symptoms resolution (assessed as patient report visual analog scale (VAS≤3)), and avoidance of surgery during follow-up.
The purpose of this clinical study is to compare how well two different devices achieve hemostasis in patients undergoing a transfemoral transcatheter aortic valve replacement. Both devices are approved by the FDA for this use, and have already been used by clinicians on patients undergoing transfemoral procedures. It is believed that the use of both devices in combination compared to the Perclose alone will shorten the time that it takes to 'seal' the artery, resulting in a shorter period of time that manual pressure will be held, shorter procedure time and less complications after the procedure.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare in different injection techniques. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - Is there a difference between the pain levels due to needle insertion in the injection made with the HST Technique, the ShotBlocker technique and the standard technique? - Is there a difference between the hematoma levels of the injection made with the HST Technique, the ShotBlocker technique and the standard technique? - Is there a difference between the comfort levels of the injection made with the HST Technique, ShotBlocker technique and standard technique? - Is there a difference between the satisfaction levels of the patients with the injection made with the HST Technique, ShotBlocker technique and standard technique? - Is there a difference between the injection fear levels of patients with HST Technique, ShotBlocker technique and standard technique?
