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 …
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 …
Use of Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation Device, Reletex Reliefband, With Current ERAS (Enhanced Recovery After Surgery) Protocol to Further Decrease Postoperative Nausea and Vomiting in the Bariatric Surgical Patient Within the First 24 Hours Postoperatively.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if the Reletex Reliefband device when used in conjunction with our current treatments will further decrease postoperative nausea and vomiting. The Investigators want to test how well it works, specifically in bariatric surgery patients that are at a higher risk for …
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 …
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 …

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.
Voice Outcome of Glottoplasty, Cricothyroid Approximation, Thyroplasty, and Chondrolaryngoplasty
The purpose of this study is to measure the short- and long-term voice outcome and outcome predictors of glottoplasty, cricothyroid approximation, thyroplasty, and chondrolaryngoplasty using a prospective non-randomized controlled trial and a multidimensional voice assessment protocol. Secondly, a laryngeal magnetic resonance imaging protocol will be developed to measure pre- and …
Intravenous vs Oral Acetaminophen in Postoperative Hip Fracture Adult Patients
The INTACT-HIP trial study will evaluate feasibility of conducting a randomized, double-blinded controlled trial comparing postoperative treatment with intravenous (IV) acetaminophen versus oral acetaminophen, in older adults undergoing hip fracture surgery. The results of this feasibility trial will be used to inform designing a larger, multi-center, randomized controlled trial to …
Multisensory and Cognitive Interventions in the ICU: Effects on Health and Recovery
The goal of this clinical trial is to examine the effects of sensory and cognitive stimulation on physiological, psychological, and functional recovery in adult patients after cardiac surgery who are treated in the intensive care unit (ICU). The main questions it aims to answer are: Does sensory and/or cognitive stimulation …
