Filter by:Total mesorectal excision has greatly reduced the local recurrence rate of rectal cancer after colorectal surgery. Transanal total mesorectal excision(TaTME) is potentially a suitable option for patients with middle and low rectal cancer. Robotic systems are expected to develop the advantages of TaTME to overcome the limitations of laparoscopic surgery. This study aimed to investigate the safety and feasibility of robotic assisted transanal total mesorectal excision in patients with rectal cancer.
This is a multicenter randomized clinical trial to determine the effect of continuation versus withdrawal of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEI) and angiotensin receptor blockers (ARB) in the perioperative period on postoperative complications.
The applicant and research team partners have over the last years developed the WARD project (Wireless Assessment of Respiratory and circulatory Distress), using wireless continuous monitoring of vital signs in high-risk patients undergoing major abdominal surgery. An important perioperative indicator not currently included in the WARD project is continuous glucose monitoring (CGM), which may not only predict and identify hypo- and hyperglycemia, but also utilize the information from variations in blood glucose in combination with other changes in vital signs to predict surgical complications in all patients. The current study involves the inclusion of 80 patients, scheduled for major abdominal, orthopedic or vascular surgery, to be monitored with CGM in addition to the currently measured vital signs. The project is a prospective, observational, clinical study, describing and analyzing variations in perioperative blood glucose levels and vital signs, and the relation to adverse clinical outcomes. Patients scheduled for elective surgery will preferentially be recruited at the preoperative assessment at a maximum of 30 days before surgery. CGM and monitoring of the remaining vital sign modalities will commence on the day of surgery. Patients admitted for acute surgery will be recruited preoperatively and CGM as well monitoring of the remaining vital sign modalities will commence as soon as possible. The patients will be monitored with CGM for up to 10 days and with the remaining modalities for up to 5 days or for all modalities until discharge or withdrawal of consent.
The term obesity is defined as body mass index (BMI) 30 and over, and morbid obesity is considered as BMI greater than 40 (1).Its incidence in the general population is approximately 20% according to Organisation for data of Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) countries and unfortunately, it is increasing worldwide (2). Obesity should not be thought ofas a single disorderasit is related tomany disorders like hypertension, diabetes, obstructive sleep apnea, cardiovascular diseases, and increased risk of malignancies (1).For years people have struggled with obesitywithboth metabolic and physical problems. Surgical treatment is the most effective long-term therapeutic treatment in current and modern medicine of obesity and obesity-related diseases as the last resort.(3-5). Roux-en-y gastrojejunostomy is the method that has been applied for many years and there isconsensus on its effect.However, in recent years, laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) has an increasing number of procedures with a short learning curve and it is the most performed surgical technique all over the world and also in Turkey (2,6). Unfortunately, like any surgical procedure, this surgery has its own complications.Although being performed frequently increases the experience of surgeons, this situation cannot reduce the risk of complications of surgery to zero. In morbid obesity patients, the risk of any complications in all surgical procedures is higher than withother patients who were not morbidly obese. Due to these complications, prolonged hospital stays, increased reapplications to the hospital, reoperations and deaths can result(5,7). Despite both an increased risk of complications according to obesity and the risk of specific complications due to sleeve gastrectomy, laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy is associated with acceptable postoperative morbidity and mortality rates (8). Various classifications have been described in the literature for complications after surgery.In one of these classifications, according to Clavien-Dindo (CD) Classification, complications are divided into two groups as major and minor. (1, 9)(Table 1). This classification can be applied to bariatric and metabolic surgeries as withall surgery types. Especially major complications in this classification are life-threatening situations and their early detection is important (8). In fact, surgeons do not want to encounter mortality in any of their patients. In this respect, DeMaria et al. developed an easily applicable mortality risk scoring system, which is consisted of five items (age ≥45 years, male sex, body mass index (BMI) ≥ 50 kg / m2, arterial hypertension, and risk factors for pulmonary thromboembolism) and can be used for the pre-operative determination of risky patients in obesity surgery(Obesity Surgery Mortality Risk Score; OR-MRS) (8,10,11). In this study, it is aimed to determine the perioperative complications seen in the laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy patients that we performed in our clinic without being discharged from the hospital and to evaluate the treatment processes of the complications under literature. In addition, whether the OS-MRS risk assessment scale and BMI had a role indetermining perioperative complications before discharge was investigated.
Perioperative depressive symptoms (PDS) are common in population undergoing surgery, and this would be sharpened especially for complicated, high-risk major surgery. However, None of treatments could resolve this clinical problem during limited perioperative period. The remarkable effects of ketamine on treatment resistant depression have been verified by several clinical trials and the enantiomer S-ketamine (esketamine) showed similar antidepressant efficacy with better safety in recent studies. The efficacy and safety of esketamine administrated intra-operatively for PDS will be verified in this study. Other secondary outcomes such as anxiety, postoperative pain and psychiatric symptoms will also be investigated.
Perioperative malnutrition is common in patients undergoing gastrointestinal and oncological surgery and it also associated with longer hospital stays, reduced responses to and increased complications from therapies, increased costs, poorer quality of life and lower survival rate. Evidence has shown that appropriate perioperative nutrition therapy have a significantly improve perioperative outcomes. Current practice emphasises the roles of early nutrition therapy as early intervention in order to combat the post-operative complications of patients and the implementation is now widely adopted. However, there is very limited data to date on the effects of perioperative nutrition therapy in patients before hospital admission, during hospital stay and after discharge to prevent the post-operative complications. Therefore, there is a need to study in this area in order to determine the effects of perioperative nutrition therapy to overcome the post-operative complications in patients undergoing surgery. This is a pragmatic randomized clinical trial will be conducted among sixty eight adults patient undergoing major elective surgery in Hospital Serdang. Participants will be randomized to one of two groups by means of sealed envelope into Intervention Group (SS) or Control Group (NN). All data will be collected during a face to face interview, blood sampling and direct anthropometric measurement with the participants at Hospital Serdang. The effects of intervention between treatment groups on outcome parameters will be carried out by using the SPSS General Linear Model (GLM) for repeated measure procedure. The perioperative nutrition therapy intervention implemented in the study will serve as a baseline data for providing an appropriate nutritional management in patients undergoing surgery.
The Post discharge after surgery Virtual Care with Remote Automated Monitoring technology (PVC-RAM) Trial is a multicentre, parallel group, superiority, randomized controlled trial to determine the effect of virtual care with remote automated monitoring (RAM) technology compared to standard care on days alive at home during the 30-day follow-up after randomization, in adults who have undergone semi-urgent (e.g., oncology), urgent (e.g., hip fracture), or emergency (e.g., ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm) surgery. It will also determine, during the first 30 days, the effect of virtual care with RAM technology on several secondary outcomes, including: 1. hospital re-admission; 2. emergency department visit; 3. urgent-care centre visit; 4. acute-hospital care (i.e., a composite of hospital re-admission and emergency department or urgent-care centre visit) 5. brief acute-hospital care (i.e., acute-hospital care that lasts <24 hours); 6. all-cause hospital days; 7. medication error detection; 8. medication error correction; and 9. death. An additional secondary objective is to determine the effect of virtual care with RAM technology on pain at 7, 15, and 30 days and 6 months after randomization.
Myocardial injury after noncardiac surgery (MINS) is common, silent, and strongly associated with morbi-mortality. There are some evidences in the littérature showing that troponin elevation pre and/or postoperatively and surgical Apgar score are strongly and independently associated with postoperative morbi-mortality. In this cohort study of orthopedic surgery patients (> 50years), the aim is to determine MINS incidence and to assess wich peri-operative factors are associated with the occurrence of MINS. The final objective is to create a score to better identified the patients with a MINS and a poor outcome.
The aim of the study is to further understand whether the use of non-invasive monitoring NIRS (Near Infrared Spectroscopy) is useful in reducing postoperative complications in high-risk patients undergoing elective surgery.
