Filter by:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of phentolamine in prevention of CA-AKI following complex PCI in patients at high risk of CA-AKI.
Purpose: to observe the possible benefits produced by conventional therapy through virtual reality with the Nintendo Switch to try to improve motivation and increase the degree of care satisfaction. The aim is to improve postural control in both seated and standing positions and to maintain and improve cognitive capacity. Material and methods: one group (experimental group) will receive a total of 8 one-hour sessions or 16 half-hour sessions, depending on their individual needs, for 8 weeks using the Nintendo Switch. The other group (control group) will continue to receive their conventional scheduled therapy. Measures: Abilhand, MEC-Lobo, FIST, Fugl-Meyer, Berg Balance Scale and CSQ-8.
The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the safety and performance of a Class IIB medical device based on linear hyaluronic acid used in the treatment of post-surgical wounds. The outcomes of the study are the improvement of wound healing assessed through the Clinical Healing score (score from 0 to 5), which includes the evaluation of: redness, edema, suppuration, healthy granulation tissue and signs of re-epithelialization; the percentage of patients with completely healed wounds at day 30 post-treatment; the pain perceived by the patient when changing the dressing; the frequency of adverse events.
For the evaluation of the lower urinary tract after laparoscopic hysterectomy, routine standard saline cystoscopy and carbon dioxide cystoscopy will be compared.
The heart and brain are regulated by the autonomic nervous system. Control of these organs can be disrupted in people with spinal cord injury (SCI). This may affect their ability to regulate blood pressure during daily activities and process the high-level information. Previous studies show that high-intensity exercise induces better outcomes on heart and information processing ability in non-injured people compared to moderate-intensity exercise. However, it is unknown the effects of high-intensity exercise on heart and brain function in people with SCI. Therefore, this study aims to examine the effects of a single bout of high-intensity interval training on heart and brain function in this people with SCI compared to age- and sex-matched non-injured controls.
The aim of this study is to prospectively analyse the rate of MINS in the standardised radical prostatectomy patient clientele at the Martini-Clinic and to identify risk factors. Pre- and postoperative troponin levels are determined (1st and 2nd postoperative day). The patient's height, weight, age and cardiovascular risk factors (including determination of the Revised Cardiac Risk Index) are recorded in the medical history as well as previous medical and interventional cardiological therapy. Furthermore, the prostate carcinoma-associated tumour and surgical parameters are determined. Clinically significant cardiovascular events during the inpatient stay are also described. Finally, a description of the rate of events, a check for correlation with the Revised Cardiac Risk Index and an identification of risk factors are carried out.
This is a pilot research study to test the protocols needed for transcutaneous spinal electrical stimulation in persons living with spinal cord injury (SCI). Up to 24 participants will be enrolled. A variety of stimulation parameters and outcome measures will be assessed.
Management of post-traumatic severe hemorrhage remains a challenge to any trauma care system. Studying integrated and innovative tools designed to predict the risk of early severe hemorrhage (ESH) and resource needs could offer a promising option to improve clinical decisions and then shorten the time of intervention in the context of pre-hospital severe trauma. As evidence seems to be lacking to address this issue, this ambispective validation study proposes to assess on an independent cohort the predictive performance of a newly developed machine learning-based model, as well as the feasibility of its clinical deployment under real-time healthcare conditions.
The investigators aim to investigate if the additional information available from a 3D scan of the wisdom tooth can reduce the risk of nerve injury during wisdom tooth surgery compared to conventional 2D images. Wisdom tooth surgery is a common surgical procedures that a significant proportion of the population will undergo. As with any other surgical procedure, there are potential complications, of which, injury to the nerve supplying feeling to the lip, chin, and tongue is the most significant. This can lead to persistent pain, tingling, or numbness that may impact a patient's ability to eat and function. The risk of nerve injury during wisdom tooth surgery is assessed using X-ray images, which show the position of the nerve and tooth in the jawbone. 2D and 3D scans are used, which have their own advantages and disadvantages such as reduced cost and radiation dose with 2D or more information from 3D images, but it remains unclear which is better at reducing the risk of nerve injuries.
The primary objective of this study is to compare changes in peri-implant keratinized mucosa (PIKM) following the application of apically repositioned flap (ARF) using a combination of a Strip graft and a Xenogeneic matrix, or with a free gingival graft (FGG), in implants in the second stage with <2 mm of PIKM. Additionally, as a secondary objective, the investigators compare postoperative blood supply in both recipient and donor sites based on the type of graft obtained. Meanwhile, the investigators evaluate differences between the two groups concerning microcirculation values (perfusion units, PU), soft tissue thickness (STT), volume change, vestibular depth, as well as clinical, aesthetic, and patient-reported outcome measures (PROMS).
