Biofilm on Chest Drains After Thoracic Surgery: Clinical Impact and Antibiotic Resistance
This prospective observational study aims to investigate the frequency and clinical significance of biofilm formation on thoracic chest drains used after thoracic surgery. Biofilms are structured bacterial communities that adhere to surfaces and can promote infection and antibiotic resistance. In this study, small samples from the tips of chest drains …
Effect of Superior Laryngeal Nerve Blocks on Patient Outcomes in Laryngeal Surgery
Patients undergoing surgery on their vocal cord will either receive a numbing injection to their throat or a saline injection during surgery. Symptoms such as how much coughing or pain patients have after surgery, as well as whether patient's voice gets better will be interrogated.
Sintilimab Combined With Chemotherapy for Adjuvant Treatment of Mucosal Melanoma After Surgery
Melanoma has emerged as the fastest-growing malignancy in recent years, with incidence and mortality rates among both men and women in East Asian countries exceeding the Asian average. China ranks fifth among East Asian nations in melanoma incidence. Currently, immune checkpoint inhibitors are achieving significant breakthroughs in adjuvant melanoma therapy. …
Efficacy of OneMark Device in Identifying Breast Cancer for Surgery and Surveillance
The goal of this research is to study a localization device for breast cancer called OneMark. This device will be studied in breast cancer surgery and during surveillance in patients being monitored for breast cancer. The main questions the study aims to answer are: Can surgeons visualize the OneMark device …
Atrial Dyssynchrony to Predict Arrhythmias in the Postoperative Setting of Cardiovascular Surgery.
This study aims to improve the prediction for developing arrhythmias in the postoperative period of cardiovascular surgery by using non-invasive echocardiographic techniques that are sensitive to detect inter and intra-atrial dyssynchrony. The main question it aims to answer is: Do patients with atrial dyssynchrony are at increased risk of developing …
Evaluation of the Accuracy of the eCential Robotics Robot in Spinal Surgery
Spinal surgery has evolved considerably over the years, and the introduction of advanced technologies has played a crucial role in improving clinical outcomes. The use of surgical robots, such as the eCential Robotic system, has emerged as an innovative solution for optimizing the precision and safety of procedures, particularly the …
Impact of Chewing Gum on Postoperative Gut Motility in Gastrointestinal Surgery Patients
Postoperative ileus (POI) is a frequent complication after abdominal surgery, leading to delayed gastrointestinal motility, prolonged hospital stay, and increased patient discomfort. Chewing gum, as a form of sham feeding, has been proposed to stimulate gut motility through vagal stimulation and increased gastrointestinal secretions. This randomized controlled trial aims to …
Site of Tracheal Extubation and Operating Room Efficiency During Robot-assisted Surgery
This study aims to evaluate the impact of different extubation strategy on the occupancy time of operating room (OR) and the incidence of adverse events and quality of recovery after robotic-assisted surgery. The investigators hypothesize that extubation in the post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) may reduce OR occupancy time without increasing …
Reducing Delirium After CABG Surgery With Early Activation and Sleep-Promoting Routines
The goal of this randomized-controlled trial (RCT) is to compare the effectiveness of the DREAMS-OT intervention with standard care in reducing post-Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (CABG) surgery delirium in patients undergoing CABG surgery. The aims of the study are: To determine if early and intensive OT will lower the incidence …
The Analgesic Efficacy of M-TAPA for Laparoscopic Abdominal Surgery in Children
This investigation aims to assess the efficacy of M-TAPA in children undergoing laparoscopic abdominal surgery. Sixty pediatric patients undergoing laparoscopic abdominal surgery under general anesthesia will be enrolled in this single-center study. Preoperatively, participants will be randomly assigned to receive either port-site local anesthetic infiltration or M-TAPA.
