Filter by:Purpose: This study compared administration of midazolam via intravenous route with nasal atomizer route for moderate sedation in an office-based vasectomy clinic.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Signati SeparoTM System when used in general surgical procedures where ligation and division of vessels are desired, such as the vas deferens. This study will evaluate the Signati SeparoTM System as a vasectomy device.
The investigators wish to perform a pilot study at the Manitoba Men's Health Clinic to assess if pre-vasectomy counseling with ChatGPT can safely streamline the consultation process by reducing visit times, while increasing patient satisfaction with the consultation process.
This study will evaluate whether or not wearing a virtual reality (VR) headset reduces pain and anxiety in patients undergoing vasectomy. The headset being used is the SmileyScope virtual reality interface, a device already undergoing study for approval by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to reduce pain and anxiety in patients aged 4 years and older undergoing needle blood draw or injection procedures. In this study, the SmileyScope virtual reality interface is considered an investigational device because it is not yet approved for use in adult males undergoing vasectomy.
The primary purpose of the study is to determine if the use of Virtual Reality (VR) goggles reduces the degree of anxiety patients experience during vasectomy procedures. The eligibility criteria include a.) appropriate age (19-100 years); b.) undergoing elective vasectomy procedure for purpose of desired sterility; c.) acceptance of wearing goggles; d) able to provide informed consent.There will be two groups, Group A will wear VR goggles and Group B will not. Evaluations will be done by survey to include questions regarding the level of anxiety experienced during the procedure, along with satisfaction scores of the experience.
This study compares auricular (ear) acupuncture and body acupuncture (Koffman protocol) versus clinic standardized pre-vasectomy medications to determine which has better outcomes at improving pre-procedural anxiety and procedural pain relief and medication usage in adult male patients following vasectomy.
The primary objective of this study is to explore feasibility of testis functionality assessment and testis imaging obtained from Positron Emissions Tomography (PET) /Magnetic Resonance Imagine (MRI). Using advanced MRI metrics, investigators will study the three-dimensional structure of normal testis, the levels of specific elements and compounds in the tissues (which can only be found via these imaging techniques), and the directionality (and alterations in directionality) of tissue structure. Investigators hope to develop hypothesis that will in turn suggest bio-markers to be explored in subsequent clinical trials.
