Mesenchymal Stem Cells for the Treatment of Various Chronic and Acute Conditions
This multi-arm, multi-site study investigates the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of stem cell therapy for the treatment of various acute and chronic conditions. Clinically observed initial findings and an extensive body of research indicate regenerative treatments are both safe and effective for the treatment of multiple conditions.
Intraoperative Methadone for the Prevention of Postoperative Pain
The pain felt after orthopedic surgery in the absence of adequate locoregional anesthesia is often insufficiently controlled, especially during the first 24 hours postoperatively. Methadone, due to its long half-life, may provide better pain control after orthopedic surgery when associated locoregional anesthesia cannot be performed. It may be impossible to …
Ketamine for Preventing Post-Spinal Hypotension in Orthopedic Surgery
This randomized, double-blind, controlled clinical trial investigates the efficacy of a sub-anesthetic dose of ketamine (0.5 mg/kg IV) in preventing post-spinal hypotension in patients undergoing elective orthopedic surgeries under spinal anesthesia. The study compares ketamine with placebo (normal saline) in terms of blood pressure stability and incidence of hypotensive episodes …
Effect of Dexamethasone on Post-spinal Hypotension
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if intravenous dexamethasone is effective for prevention of post spinal hypotension in geriatric population undergoing orthopedic surgeries. The main question aim to answer is: Does intravenous dexamethasone in participants undergoing orthopedic procedures of lower limb under spinal anesthesia prevents post spinal …
Investigation Of Bioabsorbable Screws In Pediatric Orthopedic Surgery
This study is a prospective randomized controlled trial comparing the clinical outcomes of bioabsorbable screws to conventional metal screws in pediatric patients (aged 0 to 18) undergoing surgical fixation for trauma or elective procedures. Conducted by the pediatric orthopedic department at Children's Hospital New Orleans, the study aims to evaluate …
Nirvana Super Pro Supplementation in Orthopedic Surgery Patients
The purpose of this study is to investigate orthopedic patients undergoing either a total hip replacement (THR) or total knee arthroplasty (TKR) using two dietary supplements, PREPARE and RECOVER, and their recovery times post-surgery.
Femoral Vein Diameter to Predict Intraoperative Hypotension in Geriatric Patients Undergoing Orthopedic Surgery Under Spinal Anesthesia
The study aims to assess whether the transverse diameter of the right common femoral vein (RCFV) in the inguinal region could reflect the degree of post-spinal hypotension during elective orthopedic surgery.
Intermittent Fasting Versus Carbohydrate Drinks Before Surgery
The purpose of this study is to investigate whether intermittent fasting before surgery improves insulin resistance around the time of surgery, compared to carbohydrate drinks and standard fasting before surgery.
Broad-spectrum Antibiotic Prophylaxis in Tumor and Infected Orthopedic Surgery
The perioperative antibiotic prophylaxis is evidence-based in orthopedic surgery. While its duration ranges from a single dose to three doses throughout the world, the choice of the prophylactic agents is undisputed. Worldwide, the surgeons use 1st or 2nd-generation cephalosporins (or vancomycin in some cases). However, there are particular clinical situation …
Nylon Versus Polyurethane Epidural Catheters In Patients Undergoing Major Orthopedic Surgery
Objectives: To compare the safety and efficacy of nylon (polyamide) epidural catheter versus polyurethane epidural catheter in patients undergoing major orthopedic surgery under continuous epidural anesthesia. Background: Continuous epidural anesthesia is the most common anesthetic technique used in orthopedic surgery. However, the use of epidural catheters is associated with complications. …
