Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to to compare the therapeutic effect of minimally invasive surgery guided by magnetic resonance neurography(MRN) compared with non-magnetic resonance assisted minimally invasive surgery in patients with moderate to severe gluteal muscle contracture(GMC). The main question it aims to answer are: magnetic resonance neurography can better help optimize the surgical path of minimally invasive surgery in the treatment of gluteal muscle contracture. Participants will underwent preoperative magnetic resonance examination according to different groups, and then the experimental group designed individualized surgical approach and MRN-assisted minimally invasive release according to the imaging findings. In the control group, preoperative magnetic resonance examination was only used to assist in the diagnosis and evaluation of gluteal muscle contracture, and the magnetic resonance results were not used to assist in the design of surgical approach. In the control group, non-MRN-assisted minimally invasive release was performed. The researchers will compare the intraoperative surgery-related indicators and postoperative hip function scores and complications of patients in different groups to see if magnetic resonance-assisted surgery has a better postoperative effect.
The pain felt after orthopedic surgery in the absence of adequate locoregional anesthesia is often insufficiently controlled, especially during the first 24 hours postoperatively. Methadone, due to its long half-life, may provide better pain control after orthopedic surgery when associated locoregional anesthesia cannot be performed. It may be impossible to perform loco-regional anesthesia in various contexts: patient refusal, pre-existing neurological impairment, infection at the injection site, coagulopathies, inability to cooperate, total language barrier, allergy to anesthetics, unavailability of equipment (ultrasound, etc.) or equipped room, lack of experience of nursing staff in performing the block and in the postoperative management of the patient. Intraoperative administration of methadone in these settings may be superior to sufentanil for pain control during the 24 hours post orthopedic surgery, and the pain control provided by methadone does not appear to imply a higher likelihood of adverse events related to opioids.
The purpose of this study is to investigate whether intermittent fasting before surgery improves insulin resistance around the time of surgery, compared to carbohydrate drinks and standard fasting before surgery.
60 children under 6 years old, scheduled for orthopedic surgery for limb fracture or neuromuscular and bone deformities will be randomized by closed envelope method into two groups (n=30) either receiving standard pain management protocol or intraoperative NOL guided analgesia. Our study aims to evaluate the nociception monitor's effectiveness in providing adequate postoperative analgesia in pediatric patients. Besides, the difference between the amount of analgesic medication will be recorded. Data to be recorded are total intraoperative morphine and postoperative rescue analgesic consumption, NOL values, and FLACC scores.
This Hybrid 1 Study will test the effectiveness of a bundled intervention comprised of behavioral activation and medication optimization in reducing symptoms of depression and anxiety in older adults undergoing Orthopedic surgery (compared with usual care), while examining implementation outcomes.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate substantial equivalence in terms of safety to support an indication change related to the usage of Prevena Therapy for up to 14 days. The enrolled subject will undergo 1 of 4 surgery types and be evaluated for up to 90 days.
The aim of this multicenter, prospective, randomized, double-blind and large sample study is to explore the preventive effect of low-dose droperidol on POD in elderly patients after non-cardiac surgery, providing new approach for reducing the incidence of POD and improving the prognosis and quality of life.
Laryngeal mask airways (LMA) are widely used in patients receiving general anesthesia and are known to have the following advantages over the endotracheal tube: lower incidence of postoperative sore throat, lower incidence of cough during emergence, and lower incidence of postoperative vomiting. Although LMAs can be inserted without the use of muscle relaxants, a sufficient depth of anesthesia is necessary for placement. Remimazolam is a newer anesthetic that is ultra-short acting with a rapid onset and short context-sensitive half-life allowing for fast recovery. However, the dose of remimazolam needed for LMA insertion without muscle relaxants is not well known. This dose-finding study aims to find the ED50 and ED95 of a single bolus dose of remimazolam for LMA insertion without muscle relaxants in adult patients. This is an interventional study done in a single group using the Dixon's up-and-down method which requires at least six success/failure pairs in the same direction. The primary endpoint of this study is to investigate the dose of remimazolam associated with 50% (ED50) and 95% (ED95) probability for adequate depth of anesthesia for LMA insertion without muscle relaxants. The beginning dose of remimazolam is 0.3 mg/kg, and when LMA insertion is successful, the dose will be decreased by 0.05 mg/kg in the next patient. When LMA insertion is unsuccessful (failed), the dose will be increased by 0.05 mg/kg in the next patient. Successful LMA insertion is defined as symmetrical chest wall movement and square-wave capnographic traces observed with manual ventilation.
This study was planned to determine the effect of progressive relaxation exercise to be applied after major orthopedic surgery on post-operative fatigue and comfort level.
Postoperative delirium (POD) is one of the most frequent complications after surgery in elderly patients, affecting between 20 and 40% of patients older than 60 after major surgery. This complication has huge consequences for the patients, families and society: increase of morbidity and mortality, prolonged length of stay, cognitive and functional decline leading to loss of autonomy, and important additional healthcare costs. Among numerous risk factors identified, perioperative inflammatory stress is a key element in delirium genesis: surgical trauma releases danger signals in systemic circulation, activating immune cells and leading to neuroinflammation. Melatonin is a neurohormone regulating circadian rhythm. But it also exhibits antioxidant and free radical scavenger properties, and regulates energy metabolism and immune function. It has already demonstrated a neuroprotective potential in various animal models. Its use against delirium is promising: it decreases delirium incidence in elderly patients hospitalized in medical ward, and several studies are now recruiting in ICU. The hypothesis of the trial is that in a high-risk population, perioperative melatonin can reduce the incidence of POD. The main objective is to evaluate the effect of perioperative melatonin administration on postoperative delirium incidence in the first 10 days after surgery, in elderly patients (over 70 years old) being hospitalized and scheduled for acute surgery of fractured lower limb (from femoral head to tibial plateau). This is a prospective, national multicentric (24 centers), phase III, superiority, comparative randomized (1:1) double-blinded clinical trial with two parallel arms: Experimental group: melatonin 4mg per os every night, starting the evening before surgery (or 2 hours before emergency surgery) and until day 5 after surgery. Control group: placebo of this drug with the same schedule, during the same period of time. The patients are aged 70 or older, hospitalized and scheduled for surgery of a severe fracture of a lower limb (from femoral head to tibial plateau).
