Reducing Surgical Site Infection Rates Using an Alternative Sternal Dressing
This study will evaluate two alternative dressings compared to a standard Island dressing presently in use at Stanford Hospital to determine reductions in surgical site infection (SSI) rates among cardiac surgery patients. Cardiovascular surgery patients who will have a sternotomy incision as a routine part of their surgery will be …
A Research Study of Abdominal Ultrasound (FAST) in Children With Blunt Torso Trauma
Bleeding from intra-abdominal injuries is a leading cause of traumatic deaths in children. Abdominal CT is the reference standard test for diagnosing intra-abdominal injuries. Compelling reasons exist, however, to both aggressively evaluate injured children for intra-abdominal injuries with CT and to limit abdominal CT evaluation to solely those at non-negligible …
Optimized Recovery After Trauma in Geriatric Patient
Currently, there is evidence that structured care within the healthcare system increases the conditions for good care and better recovery. We want to investigate whether a new care concept (gero-ERAT) that combines two variants of structured care can improve the recovery of elderly patients affected by a physical trauma. Our …
PINTA - Prophylactic Incisional Negative Pressure Therapy for Major Amputations
Post-operative wound issues in abdominal surgery have a significant impact on patient outcomes. This study is taking place to investigate if Negative Pressure Wound Therapy (NPWT) dressings reduces Surgical Site Infections, post surgical complications and improves scar appearance compared to standard dressings.
Implementing a Decision Support Tool to Prevent Community-Acquired Pressure Injury in Spinal Cord Injury (SCI) in the Spinal Cord Injury Clinic
Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a permanent condition affecting every aspect of life including health, daily activities, and participation and quality of life. Persons with SCI are at high risk of pressure injury (PrI) throughout their lives due to loss of sensation, nerve damage and immobility. PrIs are local areas …
LITES Task Order 0005 Prehospital Airway Control Trial (PACT)
The Prehospital Airway Control Trial (PACT) is a proposed 5 year, open label, multi-center, stepped-wedge randomized trial comparing airway management strategies of prehospital trauma patients. The initial airway attempt will be randomized to either usual care (control) or a supraglottic airway management approach (intervention). The primary outcome will be 24 …
Massive Transfusion in Children-2: A Trial Examining Life Threatening Hemorrhage in Children
The MATIC-2 is a multicenter clinical trial enrolling children who are less than 18 years of age with hemorrhagic shock potentially needing significant blood transfusion. The primary objective of the clinical trial is to determine the effectiveness of Low Titer Group O Whole Blood (LTOWB) compared to component therapy (CT), …
Fibrinogen Early In Severe Trauma StudY II
Annually over 7000 Australians are treated for severe trauma. Haemorrhage secondary to severe trauma is a major cause of potentially preventable death and poor outcomes in Australian adults. Severe trauma may trigger changes in blood clotting mechanisms and factor levels leading to inhibition of clot formation and reduced clot strength. …
Evaluation of the Parenting in the Moment Online Program for Forcibly Displaced Families
This Randomized Controlled Trial will test the effectiveness of the Parenting in the Moment (PIM) online parenting program for parents with experiences of forced displacement. The primary objective of this study is to conduct a summative (impact) evaluation of the PIM online parenting program as an in-home parent, skill-based program …
Searching Biomarkers of Acute Intestinal Ischemic Injuries
The aim of the SURVIBIO study is to characterize accurate biomarkers for acute mesenteric ischemia, in particular at early stages. In the study, the development of biomarkers will be based on the analysis of human biological samples from patients and controls that will be conserved in a biological library. Samples …
