Filter by:The investigators aim to determine whether ultrasound-guided preemptive paravertebral blockade (PVB) local anaesthetic (pre-PVB LA), administered in addition to the post-operative PVB (post-PVB) local anaesthetic (LA) infusion, reduces acute postoperative pain, opioid requirement, chronic pain, and improves surgical recovery, in thoracoscopic surgery for lung cancer.
The aim of this study was to investigate the safety and efficacy of SHR-1210 in combination with the anti-vascular survival target drug apatinib in patients with resectable NSCLC, and to provide new treatment options for neoadjuvant therapy in patients with the period IB-IIIA NSCLC.
Other than optimizing medical management of cardiac risk factors, and reducing radiotherapy (RT) dose to the heart, there currently exist no interventions to mitigate or reverse the adverse cardiac effects of RT. Aerobic exercise has been demonstrated to improve patient quality of life, cardiac outcomes, and cardiorespiratory fitness in patients with cancer receiving cardiotoxic systemic therapies, but the effects of aerobic exercise on patients at high risk for radiation induced heart disease (RIHD) is unknown. In addition, home-based cardiac rehabilitation has not been tested in patients with thoracic cancers.
Controlling hypothermia is essential in anesthesia to limit postoperative complications. Temperature monitoring is therefore essential. However, the reliability of esophageal temperature during open chest lung surgery is discussed and not accurately assessed in the literature.
The aim of the present study is to access the success rate of ultrasound-guided thoracic epidural catheter insertion, using fluoroscopy.
This trial studies how well rapid on site evaluation of pleural touch preparations works in diagnosing cancerous fluid in between the linings of the lungs (malignant pleural effusion) in patients undergoing a pleuroscopy. A type of laboratory testing called rapid on site evaluation of pleural touch preparations that uses pleural biopsy tissue samples collected during an already-scheduled pleuroscopy may be able to diagnose malignant pleural effusion.
Aim of the study is to assess efficacy of a short course radiation treatment in patients with symptomatic thoracic malignant lesions
This is a two-agent, open-label, non-randomized, Phase 1/2 dose escalation and dose expansion study of combinatorial oral vorolanib plus infusional nivolumab in patients with Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer naïve to checkpoint inhibitor therapy, Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer who have progressed on checkpoint inhibitor therapy, Small Cell Lung Cancer ( who have progressed on platinum-based chemotherapy, and thymic carcinoma.
Thoracoscopic assisted mediastinal thymectomy is currently one of the most commonly used surgical methods, but there are some deficiencies.Minimally invasive surgery through the subxiphoid approach can achieve a good surgical field of vision. (1) The surgical field is fully exposed. (2) damage to intercostal nerves can be avoided.(3) Operation time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative Extubation time is similar to VATS. But there is still lack of evidence. In this study, 50 patients undergoing subxiphoid uniportal VATS and 50 patients undergoing intercostal uniportal VATS were included to evaluate the post-operative pain and quality of life after surgery.
This is a presurgical (proof of principle, window of opportunity) study in patients with surgically resectable thoracic tumors to determine steady-state tissue and plasma concentrations of metformin.
