Filter by:Rationale for the trial. To evaluate the impact of surgery on hepatocarcinoma recurrence. Thus, to evaluate the impact of different clinical, radiological, histopathological variables on recurrence after surgical treatment. The nature of this study will allow to observe, over time, the distribution of the considered collection variables, allowing a strictly observational monitoring of possible associations able to suggest models or interpretations, which can then be the basis for the construction of prospective and randomized studies.
Researchers are trying determine the long term impact when patients have access to the artificial intelligence virtual assistant (AIVA) as a complimentary resource.
The aim of this study is to compare the common approach of laparoscopy for bilateral salpingo - oophorectomy to a new approach via transvaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (vNOTES).
ERAS protocol has been shown to improve patient comfort and reduce the length of hospital stay. This study aimed to investigate the impact of implementing ERAS protocols on healthcare costs in patients undergoing a laparoscopic hysterectomy.
Blood and urine samples of over 200 pediatric subjects (over 28 days to 3 years) undergoing complex cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) will be collected at several time points to measure corresponding biomarkers such as serum creatinine, serum urea concentration, or NephroCheck test ([TIMP-2]*[IGFBP7) to evaluate the diagnostic performance of AKI by NephroCheck test .
The study would like show that patients who follow a protocol with GMI are less probability to develop CRPS
The post operative routine after Oculoplastic Surgery includes usage of cold compressions for symptomatic relief and decreasing of the edema and local hematomas in the first few days after the surgery. Khat (Catha edulis) is a plant that is used mainly for chewing and has a known stimulating effect, some patients report major improvement after including these leaves in the compressions they use after surgery. Khat contains the chemical ingredients Cathine and Cathinone, which are amphetamine-like alkaloids and probably the main contributors for its active effects. Our main goal is to use compressions that include the Khat leaves and check their effect on reducing the edema and hematomas after oculoplastic surgery.
Methods: Prospective observational study in adult patients requiring preoperative evaluation Objectives: To determine the correlation between the aortic pulse wave velocity (AoPWV) and the distance walked in the 6-minute walk test (6MWT) Sample Size: For a desired precision of estimate of ± 0.10 (95% confidence interval) around a postulated validity correlation coefficient of r = 0.70 (for an AoPWV in the distance prediction of 6MWT) a sample of 100 patients. By allowing a 25% wear rate, a final sample size of 125 participants is required Inclusion criteria: Patients older than 18 years undergoing any surgery and who require pre-anesthesia Statistical analysis If the variables have a normal distribution, the Pearson correlation coefficient (r2) is used, which is between -1 and 1. Where -1 indicates the highest possible negative linear relationship (increasing the value of a variable decreases the another), 0 that there is no association, +1 positive correlation. From 0.7 negative or positive, it is said that the association is strong. Linear regression models of ordinary least squares will be applied to obtain the validity coefficient (r) and the standard error of the estimate (SEE): the typical error associated with the prediction the AoPWV with the distance traveled in the 6MWD test in each individual patient. The analysis of the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) will be used to derive cutoff points for an AoPWV value for the prediction of a 6MWD less than 427 meters
This study evaluates the efficacy and safety of surgical intervention in patients with focally progressive GISTs after imatinib treatment. The enrolled patients will be randomized to receive surgery following imatinib 400 milligram per day (MG/d) or only tyrosine kinase inhibitor (Imatinib 600 MG/d or Sunitinib 37.5 MG/d).
The primary aim of this study is to measure pain and psychosocial patient reported outcomes, objective functionality, and actual daily at home opioid usage in orthopedic patients. The study's goal following the data collection is to predict which patients are at high risk for chronic opioid use.
