Filter by:Brief summary The goal of this study is to compare the effects of advanced platelet rich fibrin and enamel matrix derivative placed in the extraction alveoli of patients who had surgical removal of mandibular wisdom teeth. The questions it aims to answer/evaluate are: - postoperative pain, swelling, trismus, early wound healing using soft tissue healing index - level of early local inflammatory response by measuring levels of inflammatory mediators in wound exudate - degree of wound healing by measuring levels of early wound healing mediators in wound exudate - incidence of alveolar osteitis and delayed infection - levels of probing depth, clinical attachment loss, gingival margin level, bleeding on probing, gingival index, plaque index of the second mandibular molar 3 months after surgery Participants of the study will be asked: - for their preoperative clinical measurements (swelling, trismus, periodontal parameters) to be taken by the principal investigator - to provide 20 ml of venous blood if necessary - to preoperatively provide gingival crevicular fluid in the region of distal surface of the second mandibular molar and postoperatively wound exudate - to note the number of painkiller pills taken after surgery and pain levels in different time points - to come to regular checkups in which clinical measuring of postoperative swelling, trismus levels and periodontal parameters will be performed
This is a prospective randomized trial to improve the results of treatment of patients with colorectal neoplasms.
This is a prospective, within-subject randomized, single blinded study designed to follow up to forty-two (42) qualified and consenting adult females, 18-65 years of age scheduled for elective breast reduction surgery using a standard inverted Wise (inverted "T") incision pattern
The purpose of the PULSE study are the followingL A.To perform post market clinical follow up (PMCF) on safety and efficacy: 1. Safety: To confirm transient short-terms side effects and verify long-term/outstanding risks. 2. Efficacy: To confirm the performance of PLASOMA, i.e. the beneficial effect on bacterial load. B. Determine the effect of PLASOMA on wound surface area. A secondary purpose is to examine the beneficial effects of PLASOMA on wound healing and to perform a health technology assessment (HTA). This clinical study will be an open label two-armed randomized controlled trial (RCT), performed at at least three sites (multi-center) in the Netherlands. The two arms are: 1. Control group: Standard wound care for 12 weeks or until healing, whichever occurs first; 2. Treatment group: Standard wound care + PLASOMA treatment for 12 weeks or until healing, whichever occurs first. The frequency of PLASOMA treatment will be determined by the treating (para)medical professional based on the number of visits they would schedule for the standard wound care at the study site. For all study subjects, the treatment frequency will be at least once per week (in order to have enough treatments for safety evaluation) and should not exceed once per day. Follow up (FU) will be performed at three timepoints for both arms: - FU1: 2 weeks after end treatment period - FU2: 12 weeks after end treatment period - FU3: 12 months after start treatment.
The study aimed to assess the impact of the use of closed incision negative pressure wound therapy (ciNPWT) after immediate breast reconstruction on the number of surgical-site complications, skin surface temperature, objective elastic and viscoelastic and subjective scar's quality to determine risk factors that could be considered as indications for prophylactic ciNPWT application.
Cutibacterium acnes has been the focus of much recent shoulder literature, as it has been found to be both a common cause of periprosthetic joint infection as well as a common contaminant in shoulder surgery. Standard skin preparations have been found to be ineffective at eradicating C. acnes colonization on the skin and deep dermis of patients undergoing surgery. Recent literature has shown that skin preparation with 3% hydrogen peroxide solution is effective for decreasing the rate of cultures positive for C. acnes in both dermal and deep cultures; however, a positive rate of 10%-17% has still been reported despite this skin preparations. The current theory is that standard skin preparation does not remove C. acnes from the deep dermis which subsequently contaminates the deep tissue. We hypothesize that application of 3% hydrogen peroxide to the deep dermal layer immediately following the skin incision will even further decrease the rate of C. acnes contamination during surgery.
Major abdominal surgery is associated with significant complications which may lead to morbidity and mortality. Pain experienced after surgery affects the recovery from surgery. Our study aims to evaluate the current gold standard of PCA morphine infusion against a continuous wound infusion (CLoWI). The use of CLoWI negates the side-effects of opioids, and will be the first randomised controlled trial to compare PCA (Morphine) with CLoWI-LA (Ropivacaine).
A study of the first clinical use in humans of a novel NPWT system (npSIMS) to assess the suitability, safety and efficacy of the system for the management of closed surgical wounds
The objective of this study is to compare two surgical techniques for the treatment of the maxillary and mandibular bone atrophies.. Therefore, the main purpose is to compare the (i) the percentage of post-operative complications (ii) the three-dimensional bone gain with customized titanium meshes (test group - the medical device is digitally designed and made with customized laser sintering modality, customized to the defect of each patient) and with titanium-reinforced PTFE mesh (control group - the medical device is cut, shaped, and manually modelled to the patient's defect by the operator himself.
This is a RCT which compare skin numbness, kneeling ability and functional outcome between midline incision and lateral incision in patients undergoing simultaneous bilateral TKA
