Filter by:The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy on healthy subjects of Point of Care ultrasonographically guided external aortic compression compared to the manual technique already described.
The Pure-Vu® System can be effectively used as a cleansing device in patients admitted with acute LGIB to the intensive care unit and the regular nurse floor (RNF) bypassing the need to administer an oral bowel preparation for adequate visualization and hence decreasing time to colonoscopy and improving diagnostic and therapeutic yield.
Delipid Extracorporeal Lipoprotein filter from Plasma (DELP) has been found to improve neurological function and life ability of AIS patients and approved for the treatment of AIS by China Food and Drug Administration (CFDA). Our recent study imply that the neuroprotective effect of DELP involved multiple neuroprotective mechanism such as anti-inflammation, free radical scavenging, and decreasing MMP-9. Based on the multiple mechanisms, we argue that DELP may exert neuroprotective effect on acute cerebral hemorrhage.
Effects of norethindrone acetate (NTA) in patients with Nexplanon.
This study evaluates the prehospital use of the XSTAT device to control bleeding in junctional wounds. Participants will be randomized to the use of XSTAT versus standard care.
Study type: Prospective Observational trial Study design: Longitudinal Population: Preterm newborns <32 weeks gestational age Hypothesis: The inclusion of non-invasive physiological measures of cardiac output, peripheral perfusion and brain oxygenation (NIRS) for preterm neonates is feasible and reveals additional information on the hemodynamic status compared to blood pressure alone. These measurements can improve the ability to rapidly identify those infants who might benefit from intervention and are correlated with short term clinical outcomes.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate long-term safety and efficacy outcomes following previously administered short-term exposure to SHP607, as compared to a standard neonatal care group.
There is currently limited information regarding the role of blood management in the benign gynecologic population and specifically, in patients who are scheduled to undergo surgery for fibroids and/or abnormal uterine bleeding. A thorough search through PubMed and clinicaltrials.gov did not reveal any studies on this issue. In 2019 at CCF only 2% of gyn patients at Main Campus were referred to blood management, but 12.6% of the main campus gyn population had a Hb of <10.0 g/dL. The overall goal of this study is to evaluate the role of preoperative blood management in optimizing surgical outcomes by reducing the co-morbidities associated with postoperative blood transfusion.
In pediatric patients (newborns and infants weighing less than 10 kg) undergoing cardiac surgery with extracorporeal circulation postoperative bleeding represents a known complication with a significant impact on outcome. Fresh frozen plasma (FFP) for bleeding management is associated, particularly in this kind of patients, to volume overload and a significative increase of Transfusion Related Acute Lung Injury (TRALI), further worsening the postoperative outcome. In the adult patient FFP employment could be almost completely canceled by administration of concentrated hemostatic components - the fibrinogen concentrate and prothrombin complex concentrate (PCC). We designed this phase II pilot study to establish whether an analogous strategy, modified accordingly to pediatric physiology, could be safely and successfully applied in newborns and infants.
This study will be a prospective cohort study. Patients who meet criteria for inclusion in the study will be approached for participation at same day of admission. Written informed consent will be obtained from the patients by the Co-principal investigator and by the study collaborators. If patients agree to participate, a CBC (complete blood count) will be obtained via venous puncture routine in our facility as part of the admission labs which will be around 10 cc of blood. The device will be used during the delivery in laboring room. The device will be used to assess QBL (quantitative blood loss) by the research staff only and results/ QBL assessment will be masked to the clinical team. Unmasking will only occur following study completion with purpose to perform data analysis. Patient management will be according to the clinical team without the knowledge of the QBL. All patients undergo a CBC postpartum as part of post-partum evaluation, this will also be performed by venipuncture where 10 cc of blood will be collected. The drop in Hgb (hemoglobin) between the pre and post partum CBCs will be calculated for each patient. The post-partum CBC will be collected approximately 24-30 hours from delivery as standard in our unit. The blood will be collected from each patient by the nursing staff who are experienced in withdrawing blood. Patients will be divided into quartiles of Hgb. Cases will be those patients whose Hgb is in the upper quartile, while controls will be those patients whose Hgb is in the lower 3 quartiles. We will be comparing visual EBL (estimated blood loss) by standard clinical assessment versus the QBL result from the device between cases and controls. The Triton L&D (labor and delivery) system which comprises of the device, software analysis and staff training will be supplied by the manufacturer free of charge. Research staff will be trained by the manufacturer. We will be offering our skills, fellows, midwifes and residents, who will be collecting data and we will be performing the data analysis. Results will be available to the manufacturer after results are completed. The results of this study will be presented in conferences or published in a peer-review journal. Demographic information will be obtained from the electronic medical record. The data will be kept on a password secured University of Texas Medical Branch (UTMB) computer. An encrypted USB flash drive will be used to transfer data. The data will be identified and linked to the patient using the medical record number. During data analysis, all patient identifiers will be deleted.
