Comparison of Dry-lab Laparoscopic Training and Robotic Virtual Simulator
The objective of the present study is to compare the effectiveness of dry-lab laparoscopic training and robotic simulator training among medical students without any prior laparoscopic experience.
vHDU Phase 5: Impact of an Ambulatory Monitoring System on Deterioration Detection and Clinical Outcomes
Sometimes in hospital, it is not noticed that patients are becoming unwell quickly enough. This may mean that they are less likely to survive than if the worsening of their illness had been picked up sooner. One reason for this may be that hospital staff are unable to check patients' …
Endoscopic Nasopharyngectomy for Newly Diagnosed Stage I Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma Patients
Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is most prevalent in eastern Asia, with the highest incidence reported among the Cantonese population from the province of Guangdong. Radiotherapy is the cornerstone of initial treatment due to the radiosensitive behavior of NPC and its deep-seated location. Although radiotherapy has achieved satisfactory results, it can also …
Denervation for Osteoarthritis in the PIP-joint Efficacy Study (DOPS)
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effects of a surgical and a non-surgical treatment method in patients with osteoarthritis in the proximal interphalangeal (PIP) joint. The main questions it aims to answer are: Are the treatments effective? Is the surgical treatment more effective than the non-surgical …
Return to Work for Persistent Spinal Pain Syndrome Type II Patients
A multicenter randomized controlled trial will be conducted to evaluate whether the ability to work in Persistent Spinal Pain Syndrome Type II (PSPS-T2) patients after SCS implantation is different after a personalized biopsychosocial rehabilitation program specifically targeting return to work (RTW) compared with usual care.
Glucagon Dose-Response in Patients With Post-Bariatric Hypoglycemia
The purpose of the study is to determine how blood sugar levels in individuals with and without hypoglycemia after bariatric surgery respond to different doses of glucagon, a hormone that is usually present in your body that regulates blood sugar levels. In this study, there will be 4 visits to …
Haemodynamic and Respiratory Effects of a Low Positive End Expiratory Pressure Associated With a Fluid Challenge in Knee-chest Position
The genu pectoral position is a surgical position used for spine surgery. This surgical position will lead to physiological hemodynamic and respiratory changes during the procedure. The knee-pectoral position notably induces an increase in CRF and improves pulmonary ventilation/perfusion ratios. On the other hand, it has been shown that it …
TPVB or SPSIPB in Pain Management After VATS
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the analgesic efficacy of thoracal paravertebral block (TPVB) and serratus posterior superior intercostal plane block (SPSIPB) in patients undergoing video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS). The main questions it aims to answer are: How will the total perioperative opioid consumption of the patients …
Topical and Local TXA in Facelifts - A Randomized Controlled Double Blinded Study
Tranexamic acid (TXA) is a fibrinolytic inhibitor which prevents prolonged bleeding by interfering with fibrin clot breakdown by competitively binding to lysine receptors on plasminogen; this prevents the conversion of plasminogen to plasmin. TXA will be applied to a randomly assigned side of the face during facelift surgery. The intervention …
Optimization of Transcranial Motor Evoked Potentials in Supratentorial Surgeries
This project aims to optimize the methodology to elicite transcranial motor evoked potentials in intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring of brain surgery. It includes accelerometer measurements and microscope video image to determine movement of the surgical field, making possible minimization of movement during brain stimulation.
