Impact of Volatile Versus Total Intravenous Anesthesia on Postoperative Delirium in Elderly Diabetic Patients Undergoing Non-Cardiac Surgery: a Multicenter, Randomized Controlled Trial
The present study is a multicenter， randomized controlled clinical trial, which plans to enroll 450 diabetic patients aged more than 60 years. The participants will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio and will receive either propofol or sevoflurane for intraoperative anesthesia maintenance to evaluate the impact of these two …
Treating Intraoperative Bradycardia in Non-cardiac Surgery Patients With Atropine at Heart Rates Below 60 Versus 30 Beats Per Minute and Norepinephrine Requirements
The RAPID trial is a randomized, single-center trial investigating whether giving atropine at heart rates below 60 beats per minute versus giving atropine only at heart rates below 30 beats per minute reduces the amount of norepinephrine needed to keep MAP above 65 mmHg in non-cardiac surgery patients with intraoperative …
Randomized, Single-blind Pilot Study Assessing the Effect of Cutaneous RESonance Stimulation SYMPAthetic and Parasympathetic Tone and Anxiety in Patients Admitted for Cardiac Surgery
Anxiety is a natural response to stress which peaks just before the surgery procedure. High levels of anxiety can increase postoperative pain and complications. Medicated anxiolysis is no longer recommended, in the absence of proven efficacy. Other interventions to prevent anxiety are required. The autonomic nervous system (ANS), both sympathetic …
Propranolol Treatment for Postoperative Chylothorax
Postoperative chylothorax is a serious complication after open heart surgery for pediatric patients with congenital heart disease (CHD). While it was thought to be mechanical injury to the thoracic duct, recent research demonstrated that there are intrinsically abnormal lung lymphatics in CHD patients, and after open heart surgery, the fluid …
Lung Ultrasound-guided Hemodynamic Optimization
The formalized expert recommendation of the French Society of Anesthesia and Intensive Care recommends guiding vascular filling by measuring the stroke volume (SV) in surgical patients considered at high risk. Vascular filling should be continued in the event of preload dependence and stopped in the event of the appearance of …
A Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of BX-001N in Preventing Cardiac Surgery-Associated Acute Kidney Injury (CSA-AKI) and Major Adverse Kidney Events (MAKE)
This is a Randomized, Single-blind, Multi-center, Placebo-controlled, Phase 2a clinical trial of BX-001N to prevent patients from Cardiac Surgery Associated Acute Kidney Injury (CSA-AKI) and subsequent Major Adverse Kidney Events (MAKE) in approximately 40 participants.
Belatacept in De Novo Heart Transplantation
The purpose of this study is to determine if Belatacept is safe to give to adult heart transplant recipients. Belatacept (NULOJIX) is an anti-rejection medication that is available through a prescription from a doctor. In this research study, belatacept is being used in an investigational manner (not for the purpose …
Haemoadsorption During Heart Transplantation
To investigate whether the use of haemoadsorption (HA) on cardiopulmonary bypass during heart transplantation (HTX) has an effect on circulating cytokine levels for the first 120 hours after HTX and induces a decreased inflammatory response, increased anti-inflammatory response or immunosuppressive response. Additionally, the influence of HA on primary graft dysfunction, …
Cell Therapy With Treg Cells Obtained From Thymic Tissue (thyTreg) to Prevent Rejection in Heart Transplant Children
The investigators developed a protocol to isolate Treg cells from thymic tissue (thyTreg) discarded in pediatric cardiac surgeries. After completing the pre-clinical studies, the investigators have initiated a phase I/II clinical trial to test the safety and efficacy of the adoptive transfer of autologous thyTreg to prevent rejection in heart …
Study of Organ Perfusion in Heart Transplantation in Children
The goal of this prospective randomized single blind multicenter phase II study is to compare organ perfusion with Custodiol-N and Custodiol in heart transplantation in children of all ages (birth to <18 years) being listed on the waiting list for heart transplantation. The main question it aims to answer is: …
