The aging population and its accompanying burden from non-communicable chronic diseases predicts an increasing impact imposed by frailty on healthcare systems. This is due to a lack of normative data for older adults and reliable risk stratification methods to develop effective approaches to the prevention of frailty. In this study, …
One of the most pressing concerns within the VA currently is the provision of interventions that address the cognitive as well as emotional problems faced by Veterans with mild TBI and comorbid conditions. When completed, these studies will inform us whether training core attentional self-regulatory control functions via personally-relevant activities …
Rebion has developed a device, the Rebion trauma tool (referred to as the head and intraocular trauma tool, or "HITT"), that detects ocular fixation and alignment using a binocular retinal scan. Preliminary data obtained from hospitalized patients with a clinically-confirmed traumatic brain injury (TBI) and uninjured controls indicates that the …
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is an extra-corporeal assistance used in case of respiratory or circulatory failure. In case of circulatory failure, ECMO is in the veno-arterial configuration (VA-ECMO). VA-ECMO patients are at high risk of developing acute kidney injury (AKI) and renal replacement therapy (RRT) may be needed in 50% …
In patients requiring renal replacement therapy (RRT) in the intensive care unit (ICU), continuous techniques are predominantly using due to better hemodynamic tolerance. The most employed techniques in ICU are continuous venovenous hemodiafiltration (CVVHDF) and continuous venovenous hemodialysis (CVVHD). To our knowledge, there are no prospective studies comparing the efficiency …
Cirrhosis and portal hypertension are associated with a hyperdynamic circulation and decompensation events, including development of ascites, variceal bleeding, acute kidney injury, and susceptibility to infections. Rationale Cirrhosis and portal hypertension are associated with a hyperdynamic circulation and decompensation events, including ascites, variceal bleeding, acute kidney injury, and susceptibility to …
Patients with renal insufficiency who undergo cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) are at significant risk for exacerbation of renal dysfunction postoperatively. This in turn is associated with an increased risk of prolonged intensive care unit (ICU) length of stay, other comorbidities including surgical complications and 30-day mortality. Renal impairment …
This prospective observational study aims to evaluate renal perfusion in adult patients undergoing elective minimally invasive abdominal surgery. Renal perfusion will be assessed using two non-invasive monitoring techniques: Doppler ultrasonography-derived Renal Resistive Index (RRI) and Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS)-derived renal regional oxygen saturation (rSO₂). Measurements will be obtained at predefined perioperative …
INNOVEN is a multi-center randomized controlled clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy of porcine placental extracellular matrix (PPECM) and standard of care (SOC) versus SOC alone in the closure of non-healing venous leg ulcers (VLUs).
Chronic leg and foot ulcers are defined as wounds that fail to heal in a timely manner, typically persisting for over 4 to 8 weeks without substantial healing despite standard care. These ulcers often result from macro- and microvascular disorders, the most common being chronic venous insufficiency (CVI), alone or …
