Filter by:This prospective observational research project aims to investigate how vital sign deterioration and complications within the (PACU) relate to early deterioration and complications in the surgical wards 72 hours post-PACU discharge. The participants studied will be high-risk surgical patients who will follow a normal postoperative course from the PACU to the surgical ward. The investigators seek to evaluate the association between deterioration and complications within the PACU with vital signs deterioration and complications in the surgical wards. Second, the investigators will explore how deterioration and complications affect PACU length of stay, morbidity, mortality, rapid response Teams call-outs (RRT) (Early warning score >7), extra medical patient supervision, and unplanned intensive care unit (ICU) admissions. The investigators will also examine the nurses' assessment of the patient's risk of deterioration and complications upon discharge from the PACU and admission to the surgical department.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about active void trial pass rates in patients undergoing urogynecologic surgery. The main question it aims to answer is the comparison in pass rate during active void trial between women who are given 30 minutes versus 60 minutes to void following urogynecologic surgery. Patient will be randomized to two arms prior to scheduled surgery. During the active void trial, women will be allotted up to 30 minutes or up to 60 minutes to void depending on respective randomization.
The study will be carried out in Bolu Abant İzzet Baysal University İzzet Baysal Training and Research Hospital Cardiovascular Surgery Clinic between January 2022 and February 2023. The population of the study will consist of patients who will undergo coronary artery bypass in a planned heart and meet the inclusion criteria. The sample of the study will consist of patients who meet the inclusion criteria, volunteer to participate in the study, and whose written consent has been obtained. To calculate the sample size of the study; NCSS Pass 11.0 program was used. According to the result calculated in this program, it was seen that a total of 60 people, 30 people in each group, should be reached for two groups and 99% power (α: 0.05). With this study, it is aimed to increase the job satisfaction and quality of nurses as well as to increase the satisfaction of the patients in terms of nursing. By presenting the Complementary Care Model to our country for the first time with this study; In this context, it was planned to determine the effects of music therapy, progressive muscle relaxation exercise, aromatherapy and massage on the outcomes (nausea, vomiting, sleep, anxiety, pain, complications and satisfaction) of coronary artery bypass graft patients.
Neurally adjusted ventilatory assist (NAVA) is a new mode of mechanical ventilation that delivers ventilatory assist in proportion to neural effort. The investigators hope to compare the hemodynamic and pulmonary effect in children after surgical repair of congenital heart disease with right ventricular hypertrophic ventilated with Pressure control ventilation (PCV), Pressure support ventilation (PSV), and NAVA by a crossover study.
The aim of this study is to provide optimum care to postoperative patients diagnosed with COVID-19 (after cesarean) and to help them with recovery, to determine and assist the expectation and satisfaction of pregnant women with COVID-19 regarding prenatal care.
Postoperative care of high risk patients in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) has for long been considered to be the gold standard of care in terms of reducing perioperative mortality.New evidence from a 7-day cohort study involving 27 countries comes to question this practice. The primary objective of our study is to detect any benefit of postoperative ICU care after elective surgery in terms of patient's outcome, length of hospital stay, complications and cost.
The PERFORM-TAVR trial (Protein and Exercise to Reverse Frailty in OldeR Men and women undergoing Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement) is a multicenter randomized clinical trial with a parallel-group design. The investigators will screen consecutive patients ≥70 years of age before TAVR and enrol those that have evidence of physical frailty defined by an SPPB score ≤8 or an SF36-PF score ≤55. The investigators will randomly allocate 200 patients to receive a multi-faceted intervention consisting of a home-based exercise program and a protein-rich oral nutritional supplement or usual lifestyle counselling. The primary endpoint will be the change in SF36-PF score at 12 weeks.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a goal-directed resuscitation therapy within the first 8 hours after major abdominal cancer surgery reduces postoperative complications compared to a standard therapy.
The aim of this study is to evaluate different strategies of hemodynamic optimization in high risk surgical patients during the first twelve postoperative hours in ICU based on a protocol guided by a less invasive monitorig tool (Vigileo®), oriented by a fiberoptic central venous catheter that allows continuous monitorig of SvcO2 (PreSep®), and a pressure transducer (FloTrac®) that allows cardiac output calculation by the standard deviation of mean arterial pressure or a standard resuscitation strategy.
The identification of patients with potential early organ failure is the key in preventing admission or readmission to a critical care facility. The primary goal of the Outreach Project is to ensure that all patients with threatening organ failure receive appropriate and timely treatment in a suitable area; avoid admission to the intensive care unit (ICU); and share ICU skills by a partnership in education. The objectives of the study are to determine whether the introduction of an intensive care unit based medical emergency team, responding to hospital-wide preset criteria of physiologic instability, will decrease the number of predefined serious adverse events (SAEs) and to investigate the effects on quality of life and costs in a general surgery population. Study Hypothesis: The Outreach intervention will decrease the number of predefined serious adverse events; increase quality of life; and decrease costs.
