Filter by:The aim of this study was to examine the effect of octani massage on breastfeeding success and breast engorgement in mothers who gave birth by cesarean section. The research was carried out in the gynecology service of Ağrı Training and Research Hospital between November 2022 and April 2023. The universe of the study consisted of mothers who were hospitalized in the gynecology service of Ağrı Training and Research Hospital between November 2022 and April 2023 and gave birth by cesarean section. The Open Epi calculation tool was used to determine the sample of the study. The sample calculation was made on the average score differences in the Open Epi info program. Accordingly, it was planned to include 106 mothers, 53 of whom were in the control group and 53 in the massage group. Considering the sample loss to be experienced during data collection, a total of 116 mothers, 58 in the control group and 58 in the massage group, were included in the study. Randomization of the groups participating in the study was made as simple randomization using the www.random.org site. Introductory Characteristics Questionnaire, oketany massage follow-up form, breast engorgement assessment scale and LATCH breastfeeding diagnostic measurement tool were used to collect the research data.
The purpose of this research study is to measure rate of decline and pattern of tissue oxygenation using the device, ViOptix T.Ox. ViOptix probes will be secured to the arm and hand. The recording process on the ViOptix machine will begin and obtain baseline StO2 levels for 5 minutes. After 5 minutes, a blood pressure cuff will be inflated on one arm. This blood pressure cuff will be left inflated for 10-20 minutes. Every 2 minutes a pulse check or doppler exam will be performed at your wrist. Last, the cuff will be deflated and the you will be free to leave the study room.
Phase I Study to evaluate safety and tolerability of PRO-185 (naphazoline/hypromellose) ophthalmic solution through evaluation of vital signs, ocular signs such as intraocular pressure, hyperemia and mydriasis and adverse events.
The investigators aimed to identify the value of concordance between the diastolic hyperemia-free ratio (DFR) and fractional flow reserve (FFR) during pre-interventional and post-interventional period using a 0.014" COMET II Pressure Guidewire
A total of 100 patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) presenting slow-flow after primary-percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) will be randomized to pharmacologic treatment with hyperemic drugs versus flow-mediated hyperemia.
Venous congestion, which is a phenomenon described in cardiology and post-operative cardiac surgery, is responsible for an increase in morbidity and mortality. Indeed, it can lead to kidney failure, liver failure, prolonged ileus, scarring complications, and neurological disorders. Clinical and ultrasound indications have been described to diagnose this condition. To date, this phenomenon is poorly known and not described in intensive care patients outside the cardiac context. However, intensive care patients can present the risk factors associated with the occurrence of congestion: acute cardiac failure, significant water-salt overload, and/or fluid distribution anomalies. Thus, observational studies have found an association between the input-output balance, the quantity of salt-water intake, the presence of right heart dysfunction and the occurrence of acute kidney failure, digestive disorders, hypoxemia and a prolonged stay in intensive care. The presence of a congestive condition is medically treatable since diuretic decongestion is associated with improved cardiac outcomes. It is therefore necessary, in an intensive care context, to be able to define and diagnose this state of venous congestion, to study its prevalence, and to confirm the existence of a link with organ failure in order to pave the way to known adapted treatment options.
Patients with multiple primary or secondary liver tumors have a low survival rate unless they can benefit from curative extended hepatic resections with R0 or R1 marge resection. Post-operative acute liver failure may occur after such surgery when the remnant liver is insufficient, leading to high morbimortality. The future remnant liver (FRL) preoperative evaluation is then the key consideration before performing extended liver resection. The FRL volume measurement on computed tomography (CT) imaging is the most widespread method of FRL evaluation. Threshold values of acceptable FRL volume depend on the underlying liver function, it ranges from 20-30% in healthy liver to 40% in cirrhotic liver. However, it recently appeared that the FRL function would be more valuable in predicting post-operative liver failure. 99mTc-mebrofenin hepatobiliary scintigraphy (HBS) combined with SPECT/CT enables reliable FRL function measurement with a threshold value calculated at 2.69%/min/m2, to predict post-hepatectomy liver failure. When the FRL evaluation does not reach the acceptable threshold values to avoid liver failure, portal vein embolization (PVE), consisting of portal branches occlusion of the future removed liver, can be performed. It is now the standard of care to induce FRL regeneration before surgery. Right PVE induces right hemiliver (S5-8) deportalization (portal input deprivation with hepatic venous drainage preservation) leading to left hemiliver (S2-4) regeneration. To optimize PVE results, recent effective techniques have been developed such as the simultaneous embolization of the right portal branch and the right hepatic vein (HV), and the right accessory HV if so, which is called liver venous deprivation technique. Additional simultaneous embolization of the middle HV defined the extended liver venous deprivation (ELVD) technique. ELVD induces right liver (S5-8) venous deprivation (deprivation of both portal input and venous drainage) and leads to rapid increase in FRL function. After ELVD, segment IV (S4) portal input from left portal branch is preserved while its venous drainage through the middle HV is disrupted, resulting in venous congestion. The aim of this study is to analyze the volumetric and functional evolutions after embolization procedures in deportalized liver (S5-8 after PVE), vein-deprived liver (S5-8 after ELVD) and congestive liver (S4 after ELVD).
Portal flow pulsatility detected by Doppler ultrasound is an echographic marker of cardiogenic portal hypertension from right ventricular failure and is associated with adverse outcomes based on previous studies performed at the Montreal Heart Institute. This multicenter prospective cohort study aims to determine if portal flow pulsatility after cardiopulmonary bypass separation is associated with a longer requirement of life support after cardiac surgery.
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of an acute dose of dietary nitrate in the form of beetroot juice on skeletal muscle blood flow in response to dynamic knee extension exercise in healthy older adults. All subjects will receive active (rich in dietary nitrate) or placebo (devoid of nitrate) supplementation.
Penile engorgement during intraoperative period is of rare occurrence however when do happens, leads to difficulty in performing and even cancellation of elective urogenital surgery. The mechanism behind intraoperative penile engorgement is complex and involves various factors. One common myth is that penile engorgement occurs only during spinal anaesthesia and not in general anaesthesia. In this study we intend to report the incidence and management of intraoperative penile engorgement in pediatric patients undergoing urogenital operations under spinal anesthesia with/without sedation over a period of one year. The pathophysiology and role of common contributing factors leading to intraoperative penile engorgement are also discussed.
