The Role of the Vascular Surgeon in Orthopedic Surgery of Musculoskeletal Tumors
Very large musculoskeletal tumors frequently involve vascular structures. Literature data show that spinal surgery and orthopedic surgery are the specialist branches that most frequently require intraoperative vascular surgical assistance, with 33.8% and 26.4% of requests, respectively6. In these cases, the surgical assistance of the vascular surgeon allows the safe removal …
Differential Target Multiplexed Spinal Cord Stimulation
Evaluation of the effectiveness of differential target multiplexed spinal cord stimulation for treatment of chronic back and leg pain. Additionally, a subgroup analysis will be performed to evaluate potential differences between paddle/surgical leads versus percutaneous leads.
Effects of Active Versus Passive Recharge Burst Spinal Cord Stimulation on Pain Experience in Persistent Spinal Pain Syndrome Type 2: a Multicenter Randomized Trial (BURST-RAP Study)
Spinal cord stimulation (SCS) has shown to be an effective treatment for patients with persistent spinal pain syndrome Type 2 (PSPS Type 2). The method used to deliver electrical charge in SCS is important. One such method is burst stimulation. Two variations of burst waveforms are currently in use: one …
Effectiveness of ERAS on Postoperative Recovery After Minimally Invasive Gastrectomy
This prospective, randomized, open-label, multicenter study is designed to evaluate the impact of an enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocol on the rate of meeting discharge criteria in patients undergoing minimally-invasive gastrectomy for gastric cancer. We hypothesize that implementation of our ERAS protocol will significantly increase the proportion of patients …
sTErnAl heMostasiS Trial
Sternal bleeding remains an unsolved problem for cardiac surgery teams costing operative time, blood loss, and distraction from the critical operative field. As such, the following is an investigator-initiated trial to determine whether application of a topical hemostatic agent reduces sternal bleeding during cardiac surgery using sternotomy approach.
Spinal Cord Stimulation Combined With Exercise in Persistent Spinal Pain Syndrome
Introduction. At the neurophysiological level, it is possible to observe an increase in the central processing of pain in patients diagnosed with persistent Spinal Pain Syndrome (PSPS-T1/2), potentially stemming from dysfunctions in the endogenous facilitation and inhibition of pain. Administration of high doses of spinal cord stimulation to individuals with …
Phase II Trial to Investigate the Safety and Efficacy of Four Dosing Regimens of OTL78 Injection
This study is being done to compare how well Zopocianine (OTL78) in combination with Near InfraRed (NIR) fluorescent imaging may improve the detection of malignant (growing in an uncontrolled way) tissue in adult subjects undergoing prostatectomy and lymph node dissection for biopsy confirmed prostate cancer.
Evaluation of Medication Tapering on the Sensitivity of the Spinal Cord Using Closed-Loop Spinal Cord Stimulation (Pilot Study)
This pilot study investigates the effects of reducing pain medication including opioids and anticonvulsants, on spinal cord sensitivity during closed-loop spinal cord stimulation (SCS). Patients with Persistent Spinal Pain Syndrome Type 2 (FBSS/FNSS) will undergo a standard 21-day SCS trial with the Evoke closed-loop system, followed by permanent implantation if …
"Comparative Study of High-frequency Pulsed Vacuum Technology Versus Phacoemulsification for Cataract Surgery
Cataracts are cloudings of the lens, primarily due to aging. Surgery is the primary treatment for cataracts. The most commonly used surgical technique is phacoemulsification, which involves fragmenting the lens using a high-frequency ultrasound probe and removing the fragments. Phacoemulsification is more common due to its advantages. Recently, a new …
Peri-operative Tamsulosin and Impact on Voiding Trial After Same-day Urogynecology Surgery
The purpose of this research study is to determine if taking tamsulosin preoperatively decreases your chances of being discharged after surgery with a Foley catheter (flexible tube that drains urine from the bladder into a collection bag).
