A Prospective, Randomized Comparison Of Drainage Techniques After One- Or Two-Level Open Posterior Lumbar Decompression Or Decompression And Fusion
This project is being done to understand if a drain reduces recovery problems after surgery, such as infection or the need for more surgery.
The Pediatric ALL Evaluation and Trial
The overall aim of this multicenter RCT is to determine whether concomitant ALL reconstruction in children undergoing and ACL reconstruction will longitudinally result in a lower rate of graft failure than ACL reconstruction alone.
Making Football Safer for Women: Implementing an Injury Prevention Program
The aim of this study is to determine how we can best support coaches to implement an injury prevention (IP) program (Prep-to-Play) in female community Australian Football. We will recruit at least 140 female community football teams from 15 different football leagues in Victoria, Australia. Teams will be competing in …
Preventing Injured Knees From osteoArthritis: Severity Outcomes
This study is being done to find out if metformin is effective at reducing pain by delaying the onset of post-traumatic osteoarthritis (PTOA) after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. This research study will compare metformin to placebo. The placebo tablet looks exactly like metformin, but contains no metformin. Placebos are …
Identifying Oxytocin Deficiency in Adults With Pituitary Disease
This is an open-label, pilot study, to characterize oxytocin response to a single dose of oral Estrogen-progestin in patients with arginine-vasopressin deficiency compared to healthy controls. The association between oxytocin levels and measures of psychopathology (i.e., anxiety and depression) and quality of life across groups will be examined. We hypothesize …
Postop Pain Management in Pituitary Tumour Patients
To assess the benefit of using an additional nerve block during minimally invasive pituitary surgery, to improve pain management after surgery. The medication (Bupivacaine) or a placebo (saline) will be injected during surgery and patients will be asked about their level of pain at multiple time points in the first …
Outcome Analysis of Endoscopic Resection of Pituitary Adenomas
The goal of this prospective study is to learn about the operative outcomes in patients with pituitary adenoma who receive endoscopic resection. The main question it aims to answer is: • What are the outcomes of patient following endoscopic resection? including visual, hormonal, survival, and functional outcomes. Participants' data including …
Feasibility of Endosphenoidal Coil Placement for Imaging of the Sella During Transsphenoidal Surgery
Background Pituitary tumors can cause problems by secreting hormones in the body. They can also problems by growing large and pushing on organs near the pituitary gland. The best treatment for such tumors is to remove them by surgery. But that may be sometimes difficult. Some tumors maybe too small …
Application Research on Endoscopic Pseudocapsule-Based Resection for Pituitary Adenomas
Pituitary adenomas are one of the most common primary central nervous system tumors and have an estimated prevalence of 17%. Management of pituitary adenomas involves a multidisciplinary approach that can incorporate surgical, medical, and/or radiation therapies. Over the last two decades, the endoscopic endonasal approach (EEA) has been extensively developed …
Application of Augmented Reality Neuronavigation in Transnasal Endoscopic Skull Base Surgery
"For lesions in the skull base, including meningiomas, chordomas and pituitary tumors, endoscopic surgery has replaced traditional microscopes as the mainstream procedure. Although neurosurgeons can enlarge the surgical area using a neuroendoscope, it does not provide any information on the morphology and location of anatomical structures beneath visible surfaces. Due …
