Effect of High Dose Insulin on Infectious Complications Following Major Surgery
Despite improvements in surgical techniques and perioperative care, the high incidence of postoperative surgical site infections remains a major problem in patients undergoing major abdominal surgery (liver, pancreatic and colorectal surgery). Using the hyperinsulinemic-normoglycemic clamp technique, i.e. continuous infusion of insulin combined with dextrose titrated to "clamp" blood glucose between …
Continuous vs Intermittent Ketorolac for Pain Control in Peds CV Surgery
The proposed study will be a prospective, randomized, double blind, placebo controlled trial to compare the use of a continuous infusion versus intermittent ketorolac on postoperative patients in the pediatric cardiovascular ICU. We intend to determine if the continuous infusion leads to a decreased utilization of opiates when compared to …
Perioperative EEG-Monitoring and Postoperative Delirium in Patients Undergoing Cardiovascular Surgery
Postoperative delirium is common in patients undergoing cardiovascular surgery and associated with poor outcomes. However the pathogenesis of postoperative delirium is poorly understood. Multichannel electroencephalogram is a recognized tool for identifying neurophysiologic states during anesthesia, sleep, and arousal. The aim of the current study is to evaluate the mechanisms and …
Personalized Perioperative Analgesia Platform (PPAP) for Pediatric Spine Fusion Surgery (sIRB)
The purpose of this collaborative CTSA application is to develop an innovative perioperative precision analgesia platform (PPAP) to improve analgesia and reduce serious immediate and long-term adverse outcomes of perioperative opioids in children undergoing painful surgery.
Comparison of Phaco Surgery With Goniosynechialysis Versus Trabeculectomy in Glaucoma Treatment
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether phacoemulsification combined with goniosynechialysis (Phaco-GSL) is as effective and safe as trabeculectomy in treating patients with primary angle-closure glaucoma. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does Phaco-GSL provide similar or better intraocular pressure (IOP) control compared to trabeculectomy? …
Breast Cancer BRAs Study (Breast Cancer Biomechanics of Radiotherapy And Surgery)
This study, delivered by Portsmouth Hospitals University NHS Trust in conjunction with the Research Group in Breast Health at the University of Portsmouth \[1\], aims to assess whether it is possible to test breast biomechanics in women who have had surgery with or without radiotherapy for the treatment of breast …
Respiratory Sinus Arrhythmia Pacing Post-CABG Surgery in Patients With HFrEF
The goal of this clinical trial is to test a new type of pacemaker in heart failure patients following a heart bypass operation. The new pacemaker restores respiratory sinus arrhythmia which is a natural pattern where the heart rate increases when the participants breathe in and slows down when participants …
Effectiveness of One-Minute Versus Two-Minute Cryoanalgesia in Nuss Surgery
Intercostal nerve cryoanalgesia has become a popular method for managing postoperative pain after Nuss procedure, showing greater effectiveness compared to epidural anesthesia and patient-controlled analgesia. However, the optimal duration of cryoanalgesia remains unknown. Most protocols use a two-minute cryoablation, although histological studies show similar changes with both one-minute and two-minute …
Ultrasound for Assessment of Intra-Abdominal Blood Loss After Gynecological Surgery
This is a prospective cohort study designed to assess intra-abdominal blood volume and hemodynamic status by measuring the diameter of the inferior vena cava (IVC) using 3D and Doppler ultrasound within 24 hours after gynecological surgery. The study will examine the association between these ultrasound findings and postoperative outcomes, including …
Evaluation of Retrograde Intra Renal Surgery in the T-tilted Position
To evaluate the effect of the T-tilted position on the stone-free rate compared to the standard lithotomy position in retrograde intrarenal surgeries. Common positions include the Trendelenburg position, where the patient is tilted head-down to help gravity move stones from the upper calyces to the renal pelvis, and the modified …
