A Clinical Trial About the Safety of Surgical Treatment in Severe Primary Pontine Hemorrhage
Primary pontine hemorrhage (PPH) is not common but is the most catastrophic subtype of intracerebral hemorrhage, with acute mortality between 30% and 60%. For severe PPH, defined as Glasgow Coma score (GCS) <8 and hematoma volume≥5ml, the mortality rate is as high as 80-100%. Guidelines from the American Heart Association …
Perioperative Monitoring to Assess Preoperative Anxiety in Inflammatory Bowel Disease Patients
Anxiety and depression are extremely common among Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) patients undergoing surgery and may increase the risk of postoperative adverse outcomes. This study aims to objectively evaluate preoperative psychological distress by remotely measuring the patient's physiological parameters and Heart Rate Variability (HRV) with the Howdy Senior ® device …
Effects of Assisted Robotic vs Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy
This will be a prospective, obesity-registry based, single-blind randomized controlled trial with a 1:1 allocation ratio. Specific inclusion criteria are all patients eligible to undergo a Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) based on the current National Institute of Health (NIH) patient selection guidelines. Patients should be able to give consent, be …
The Neuralert Stroke Monitor Pilot Trial
This trial aims to demonstrate that the Neuralert Monitoring System will detect strokes before they would be identified by current standard of care. Each patient will be monitored for up to five days, depending on device connectivity or battery duration. Each monitoring session will consist of wearing a Neuralert device …
Assessment of Efficacy and Safety of PD-1 Monoclonal Antibody Combined With IL-2 and CapeOX in Neoadjuvant Therapy for Locally Advanced Rectal Cancer Prior to Surgery: A Prospective, Multi-center, Randomized Controlled Study
The objective is to evaluate whether the neoadjuvant combination of tislelizumab (a PD-1 inhibitor) with interleukin-2 (IL-2) chemotherapy can significantly increase the Objective Response Rate (ORR) and the Pathological Complete Response rate (pCR) in patients with locally advanced rectal cancer who have Microsatellite Stable/Proficient Mismatch Repair (MSS/pMMR) status.
Randomized Pilot Study of Radiosurgery for the Treatment of Non-metastatic Prostate Cancer
This is a prospective, interventional pilot study to evaluate the feasibility of randomizing patients diagnosed with prostate cancer to different treatment schemes according to their risk. Patients with a diagnosis of prostate adenocarcinoma (confirmed by biopsy), without signs of metastasis outside the pelvis in the staging study and without prior …
Pregabalin Versus Dexmedetomidine for Delirium Treatment After Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting
The aim of this study is to determine the effect of pregabalin versus dexmedetomidine on the treatment and lasting duration of delirium in fast tracking elderly patients after Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting.
Tranexamic Acid in Rhinoplasty: Perioperative Bleeding, Edema and Ecchymosis
This study will be a prospective randomized study to evaluate the effect of tranexamic acid (TXA) use on intraoperative and postoperative outcomes among patients undergoing rhinoplasty by two Facial Plastic surgeons at Vanderbilt. Outcomes will include intra- and post-operative bleeding and postoperative bruising and swelling.
Artificial Intelligence to Predict Surgical Outcomes and Assess Pain Neuromodulation in Trigeminal Neuralgia Subjects
Trigeminal neuralgia (TN) is the most common cause of facial pain. Medical treatment is the first therapeutic choice whereas surgery, including Gamma Knife radiosurgery (GKRS), is indicated in case of pharmacological therapy failure. However, about 20% of subjects lack adequate pain relief after surgery. Virtual reality (VR) technology has been …
Gastric US in ICU Patient
This is a case series study using gastric ultrasound in critically ill patients to quantify gastric residual volumes to compare the efficacy of different NPO protocols.
