Safety and Feasibility of a Self-Balancing Exoskeleton for Rehabilitation in the Thoracic Surgical Intensive Care Unit: a Pilot Trial
Patients admitted to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) after thoracic surgery often experience complications related to immobility, such as muscle weakness, pulmonary issues, and longer recovery times. Early mobilization has been shown to improve outcomes, but its implementation is often limited by patient fragility and staff resources. This study will …
Validity of Frailty Screening Tools as a Measure for Postoperative Outcomes
Frailty is a common geriatric syndrome defined as a clinical state of decreased physiologic reserve resulting in increased vulnerability to stressors. It is associated with several unfavorable postoperative complications independent of age such as readmission, length of hospital stay and mortality. To address these concerns, medical societies have acknowledged a …
Comparing 150cm OAGB With 150cm Biliopancreatic Limb RYGB. A Non-inferiority Trial
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficiency of OAGB compared to RYGB
Comparisons of Metabolic Effect of Sleeve Gastrectomy With Duodenojejunal Bypass and Sleeve Gastrectomy (MEDUSA): A Multicenter Randomized Controlled Trial
In this study, the effects of SG with DJB and SG alone for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) will be compared in patients other than the two groups at both extremes who are expected to show excellent effects of metabolic surgery with SG alone (mild T2DM) and …
A Prospective Study of Preoperative Tumor-bed Boost Followed by Oncoplastic Surgery and Adjuvant Whole Breast Radiotherapy for Early Stage Breast Cancer (BIRKIN)
This study explores the feasibility of preoperative single-dose tumor-bed boost followed by oncoplastic breast-conserving surgery and ultra-hypofractionated postoperative radiotherapy in patients with early stage breast cancer. Patients less than 55 years old, who are diagnosed with breast cancer and are eligible to recieve breast-conserving surgery are enrolled. Patients who are …
Organ Preservation With Durvalumab-based Immunotherapy in Combination With Chemoradiation as Definitive Therapy for Early Stage Esophageal Adenocarcinoma With Indication for Radical Surgery
The present clinical trial is a prospective, investigator-initiated, single-arm, open-label, multicenter phase II trial investigating whether a definite organ preservation therapy consisting of the combination of durvalumab with chemoradiation is an efficient and safe treatment option for early stage, cT1 and cT2N0, esophageal adenocarcinoma with indication for radical surgery.
Study of PRRT in Metastatic, World Health Organization (WHO) Grade 1 or 2, SSTR Positive, GEP-NET Who Are Candidates for Cytoreductive Surgery
The purpose of this study is to learn about the feasibility and safety of using Peptide Receptor Radionuclide Therapy (PRRT) before and after surgical removal of a tumor. PRRT treatment is based on the administration of a radioactive product, 177-Lu DOTA-0-Tyr3-Octreotate (Lutathera®) and its use before and after surgery is …
Intelligent Vacuum Assisted Biopsy Immediately Before Surgery as an Intra- or Pre-Operative Surrogate for Patient Response to Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy for Breast Cancer
Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) is common practice in the primary treatment of breast cancer, leading to a complete pathologic remission (pCR) of the tumor in more than 50% in aggressive tumor types. As NAC induces different response patterns, radiologic imaging is not sufficiently accurate in predicting residual disease. Because of this …
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 …
Fluorescence Image Guided Surgery Followed by Intraoperative Photodynamic Therapy for Improving Local Tumor Control in Patients With Locally Advanced or Recurrent Colorectal Cancer
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and how well fluorescence image guided surgery followed by intraoperative photodynamic therapy for improving local tumor control in patients with colorectal cancer that has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced) or that has come back after a period of …
