Filter by:The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to evaluate whether remote pedometer follow-up and virtual coaching can improve ambulation after major abdominopelvic surgery, and how this affects key postoperative outcomes. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Does pedometer-guided ambulation coaching increases ambulation after surgery? - Does pedometer-guided coaching improve satisfaction, quality of recovery, while reducing postoperative complications? Participants will be asked to install a pedometer app for the purpose of data sharing. Study personnel will compare pedometer follow-up plus text message coaching (intervention) with pedometer follow-up only (control) to investigate whether coaching improves adherence to the postoperative ambulation recommendation, and whether this leads to improvement of the secondary outcomes.
Major surgeries including gynecological cancer surgery can make surgical stress that leads to increased burden of postoperative complications, delayed length of hospital stay and increased mortality rate. Protein is one of the essential factors that contribute to the recovery of patients following surgery, as the surgical process increases protein breakdown in the body. Providing patients with an adequate amount of protein helps enhance muscle building, aids in muscle repair, and reduces postoperative inflammation. One study administered a fluid containing a combination of whey protein and carbohydrates to cancer patients in preoperative and postoperative periods. The result of the study shows that intervention group can reduce the length of hospital stay and postoperative complications. However, studies focusing on the use of only-protein supplement to improve surgical complications in gynecological cancer patients are limited. This study aims to investigate the administration of protein supplement before and after surgery in gynecological cancer patients its contribution to the reduction of length of hospital stay and postoperative complications at Rajavithi Hospital.
Several approaches have been used in order to regenerate bone in the upper jaw in case of insufficient alveolar bone height for implant placement. However, new emerging techniques need to be assessed and compared to conventional methods in order to define their potential indications. The purpose of the present randomized controlled clinical trial was to compare the clinical outcomes of two sinus floor elevation techniques: conventional lateral window technique versus a novel transalveolar approach using hydrodynamic ultrasonic device.
