Filter by:This is a prospective randomized multicenterstudy focusing on PROMs after primary corticoid injection for triggerfinger with a comparison of two different injection techniques.
The SOLUTION trial aims to show the efficacy and safety of performing radical hysterectomy by minimally invasive surgery using an endoscopic stapler in patients with cervical cancer stage IB1 (FIGO staging 2009) and thus to prove that minimally invasive surgery is non-inferior to open surgery.
Perfusion strategies and aortic clamping techniques for right mini-thoracotomy mitral valve (MV) surgery have evolved over time and remarkable short- and long-term results have been re-ported. However, some concerns have emerged about the adequacy of myocardial protection dur-ing the minimally invasive approach and about the role of aortic clamping strategies in this contest. Aim of this study was to compare the efficacy, in terms of myocardial protection, of the en-do-aortic clamp (EAC) versus the trans-thoracic aortic clamp (TTC) in patients undergoing right mini-thoracotomy MV repair. A single center, prospective observational study was performed between June 2014 to June 2018 on patients undergoing right mini-thoracotomy MV repair with retrograde arterial perfusion and EAC or TTC. The selection of one setting in respect to the other was patient orientated. Myocardial protection was assessed through creatinine kinase-myocardial band (CK-MB) and cardiac Troponin T (cTn-T) blood levels immediately after the surgical procedure and at 6, 12, and 24 hours and compared between the two groups.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether robotic surgery has limitations in terms of patient age, tumor size, location, and vascular relationship when compared to open surgery for pancreatic cancer. Whether robotic surgery has advantages over intraoperative bleeding, operative time, postoperative complications (bleeding, infection, pancreatic fistula) and postoperative hospital stays compared to open surgery.And the differences in lymph nodes harvest and postoperative survival between two groups.
Minimally invasive oesophagectomy is a technically demanding procedure; thus, the learning curve of this procedure should be explored. Then the mature minimally invasive oesophagectomy procedure should be contrasted with the open procedure.
This prospective, randomized control trial will evaluate patient satisfaction with the number of postoperative follow up visits after minimally invasive hysterectomy for the treatment of non-cancerous conditions at an urban academic hospital in Louisville, Kentucky. Patients will be randomized to receive either a two and six week postoperative follow up visits versus a postoperative follow up visit at six weeks alone.
The primary indication for superior hypogastric plexus (SHP) block is visceral pelvic pain, most commonly from malignancy of the ovary, uterus, cervix, bladder, rectum or prostate. Per-cutaneous SHP blocks should be done under guidance of ultrasonography, fluoroscopy, magnetic resonance or computed tomography. During minimally invasive laparoscopic surgery, percutaneous technique can be done under the guidance of cameras.
This study evaluates patient goal achievement and satisfaction in benign hysterectomy. Patient's will state their goals prior to undergoing benign hysterectomy, and will receive a follow-up questionnaire 3 months post-operatively evaluating their perception of goal achievement and overall satisfaction. Goal achievement and satisfaction will be evaluated for association with surgical indication, surgical approach (minimally invasive vs abdominal surgery), and demographic information.
In adults, it is common to perform a number of superficial and non invasive surgeries under local anesthesia in order to limit the use of general anesthesia. Hypnosis is a nonpharmacological therapies that can be used during surgery to improve the patient comfort and experience. The benefit of this practice has been widely demonstrated in adults, decreasing perioperative anxiety, postoperative pain scores as well as nausea and vomiting. In pediatric surgery, hypnosis is an effective technique for the management of preoperative anxiety. It is used by many teams in their daily practice, particularly during anesthetic induction. For 2 years, the team of pediatric anesthesia and surgery of the Montpellier University Hospital also offers for selected short and superficial non-invasive surgeries, an intraoperative management under hypnosis in association with ocal anesthesia as an alternative to general anesthesia. If this clinical practice of hypnosis is fully accepted and recognized in our intraoperative surgical unit, to date, no studies have evaluated the benefits of this technique compared to general anesthesia. The objective of the study is to compare the impact of these techniques (hypnosis vs. general anesthesia) on postoperative experiences of children (rehabilitation time, anxiety, pain, nausea and vomiting, negative behavioral disorders).
- To date, Roux-en-Y esophagojejunostomy transabdominal extracorporeally by circular stapler was the most common used method during laparoscopy-assisted total gastrectomy for gastric cancer, even though it was not totally laparoscopic surgery in which intracorporeal anastomosis should be performed. - To gain potential clinical benefits from a smaller length of minilaparotomy and an easier anastomosis technique than extracorporeal anastomosis, intracorporeal Roux-en-Y anastomosis using a transorally inserted anvil (OrVil™) during totally laparoscopic total gastrectomy was adopted by experienced surgeons recently. - However, the safety of intracorporeal Roux-en-Y esophagojejunostomy using a transorally inserted anvil (OrVil™) has not yet been evaluated. Thus, the study comparing the safety of intracorporeal versus extracorporeal Roux-en-Y esophagojejunostomy by circular stapler based on a well designed randomized controlled trial is needed.
