Improving Mobility After Revascularization in Peripheral Artery Disease
Lower extremity revascularization combined with supervised exercise significantly improves walking performance compared to revascularization alone in people who have PAD without limb threatening ischemia. However, supervised exercise is inaccessible or burdensome for most PAD patients. Investigators hypothesize that home-based exercise combined with lower extremity revascularization will significantly improve walking performance …
SiFi vs FNB Local Anesthesia for Hip Fracture Surgeries
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare two commonly used local/regional anesthesia techniques in adults patients undergoing hip fracture surgery. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: • the impact of both interventions on patient level of pain. • impact on postoperative analgesics administered Participants will be …
Opioid Dispenser for Microdiscectomy/Laminectomy
The opioid crisis continues to plague the United States. While great strides have been made nationwide to decrease overprescribing, improvements are still needed to appropriately educate patients on the safe and responsible use, storage and disposal of opioids. Pain after surgery is often treated with opioid medications. Opioid medications can …
An Exploratory Study of Arginine Supplementation and the Postoperative Immune REsponse
ASPIRE is a nutrition study focusing on the effect of arginine supplementation on immune function in postoperative infants. The investigators will explore the effect of current intravenous feeding (parenteral nutrition (PN)) formulations and oral arginine supplementation on blood arginine levels and the genes that are involved in body nutrition and …
The ALOFT Pilot Trial
The ALOFT Pilot Trial will evaluate three pragmatic elements (recruitment, adherence, and follow-up) of neuraxial versus general anesthesia for lower limb revascularization surgery that are necessary to support a successful, large-scale evaluation. We will concurrently use implementation science methodology to further refine processes for the larger trial. The future full …
Examining Safety, Efficacy and Feasibility of Preoperative Propranolol in Patients With PDAC.
The IMPULS trial is a randomized, triple-blinded, placebo controlled, single center, pilot trial examining the efficacy and safety of preoperative propranolol in patients scheduled for pancreatic cancer surgery. The study is conducted as a type 1 hybrid efficacy-implementation trial of 30 patients. This study is designed to provide pilot data …
Exploratory Evaluation of the Effect of Cholestyramine on Serum Levels of POPs in Obese Female Patients
Environmental endocrine disruptors (EDCs) represent a major problem for human health.Some PEEs can accumulate in the fatty tissue of the human body thanks to their lipophilic nature, and are known as persistent organic pollutants (POPs). To assess the benefit of cholestyramine treatment on POPs blood levels in obese patients of …
A Randomized Comparison Between 0.67 mcg/kg, 1 mcg/kg, and 1.33 mcg/kg of Perineural Dexmedetomidine for Ultrasound-Guided Infraclavicular Block
This study will compare three different doses of perineural dexmedetomidine 0.67 mcg/kg, 1 mcg/kg, and 1.33 mcg/kg as adjuvants to local anesthetics for ultrasound-guided infraclavicular brachial plexus blocks (ICBs). Our research hypothesis is that 1.33 mcg/kg will provide a 15%-longer duration than 1mcg/kg, which in turn will provide a 15%-longer …
Effect of Dexmedetomidine on Microsurgery Reconstruction in Cancer Patient
This double-blinded randomized controlled trial aims to investigate the effect of intraoperative dexmedetomidine administration on early flap viability and microvascular integrity in cancer patients undergoing elective microvascular reconstructive surgery. The primary outcome is clinical flap viability within 48 hours postoperatively, assessed using a standardized scoring system based on flap color, …
Multimodal Analysis of Endomyocardial Biopsies
The goal of this observational study is to pursue a multimodal approach to identify the molecular signatures and immune signalling molecules of various myocardial diseases and thereby contribute to improving diagnosis and therapy. The main aim is: -Identification of molecular profiles (e.g., proteome, lipidome, metabolome) and immune signalling profiles that …
