Filter by:This study is a randomized controlled trial. Adult patients undergoing thyroidectomy under general anesthesia at Severance Hospital and Yonsei Cancer Center are included in tis study. For intervention group, patients receive anesthesia with total intravenous remimazolam, while for control group, patients receive anesthesia with inhalation anesthetic. The primary end point of the study is to determine whether coughing during endotracheal tube extubation is less when anesthesia is maintained with intravenous remimazolam compared to inhalation anesthetics. The secondary end points are cough score (graded into 4 levels), frequency of reoperation due to postoperative bleeding, These include the frequency of hypertension during the extubation process and whether additional painkillers are used in the recovery room.
In this study, patients diagnosed with a pathology-proven malignancy of the head and neck will receive a routine clinical activity of 18F-FDG ((18)F-luorodeoxyglucose) before undergoing standard of care surgical resection of the malignancy. Following the resection, the 18F-FDG-infused malignancy will be investigated utilizing a novel high-resolution Positron Emission Tomography (PET) and Computed Tomography (CT) scan. Slicing of the malignancy will be followed by additional PET/CT-scanning and autoradiography of the sliced specimen. The results found during image analysis will be compared to the results of the gold standard of histopathology. As this is no approved way of assessing the tumour's margin, the conclusion of the scan will not be used as a method for changing the patients' treatment.
The aim of this study is to test the hypothesis that the quality of recovery with topical lidocaine is better than placebo.
The present study investigated the effect of routine calcium and vitamin D supplementation and tried to find the predictors for postoperative hypocalcemia in patients with thyroid cancer.
This study evaluates the usefulness of molecular classifier to aid the diagnosis of malignancy in the material obtained by fine-needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) of thyroid nodule. All participants will undergo FNAB with routine cytological assessment and molecular testing. Patients will undergo surgery or be followed-up, according to the clinical guidelines. The diagnostic power of combined molecular/clinical classifier will be compared to prediction based on clinical features only, by investigators blinded to the final diagnosis of surgical assessment.
This is a Phase 1/2, open-label, first-in-human (FIH) study designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and preliminary antineoplastic activity of pralsetinib (BLU-667) administered orally in participants with medullary thyroid cancer (MTC), RET-altered NSCLC and other RET-altered solid tumors.
This is a Phase 2, non-randomised, open-label, multicentric study to investigate the efficacy and safety of pembrolizumab monotherapy in 7 cohorts of patients with specific rare cancers who have unresectable locally advanced or metastatic disease, which is resistant or refractory to standard therapy, or for which standard therapy does not exist, or is not considered appropriate, and for which no other experimental treatment options are available, in order to identify subsets of patients that may benefit from treatment
Remifentanil target-controlled infusion and dexmedetomidine single-dose administration are known to reduce airway response and haemodynamic stimulation during anaesthetic recovery. The investigators will compare the effects of two drugs on prevention of cough during emergence from general sevoflurane anaesthesia.
Fentanyl is expected to suppress tracheal tube-induced cough during emergence from general anaesthesia through binding to its receptors in the brainstem. However, it has not been proven if fentanyl has a complication-free, dose-dependent effect on cough suppression during emergence from sevoflurane anaesthesia. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the relationship between fentanyl doses and cough suppression during emergence from sevoflurane anaesthesia.
Primary Objectives - To compare the amount of post-operative wound drainage between the group of patients in which EVICEL™ spray is utilized (Arm A), and the group of patients in which an EVICEL™ placebo is utilized (Arm B). - To compare the length of time to drain removal between Arm A and Arm B. Secondary objectives - To compare the incident or rates of seroma, hematoma, and post-operative edema between the two groups. - To compare the reported pain experienced in each group at selected time points using a standard numerical rating scale (NRS). - To compare the length of hospital stay between the two groups of patients.
