Study of Cost-effectiveness of the Airway Management in Thoracic Surgery
The investigators want to carry out a study to determine the role of Doble Lumen Tubes with built-in camera Viva Sight-DL (VDLT) in thoracic surgery. With this study the investigators want to study and enlarge the information in the different surgical approaches, including robotic surgery. The objective of this study …
IORT Following Breast Conserving Surgery for Early Stage Breast Cancer Registry
This is a prospective, registry trial which will enroll women aged 65 and above with early stage, low risk breast cancer who will be treated with partial mastectomy and intraoperative radiation therapy (IORT). The primary aim is to determine the 5-year risk of in-breast tumor recurrence. Secondary aims include identification …
Cardiac Biomarkers for the Quantification of Myocardial Damage After Cardiac Surgery
The aim of the study is to clarify whether the perioperative release of the cardiac biomarkers troponin I, troponin T and CK-MB consistently correlate with visualizable myocardial damage, and to what extent these biomarkers are comparable by means of their kinetics and dynamics. Due to the uncertainty regarding the validity …
Use of Discarded Surgery Human Tissue Specimens for Basic Science Research
Although it is now established that calcification process result from the joint and coordinated action of different cell types, many areas of shadow remain regarding the spatio-temporal implementation of these events. Highlighting these processes requires additional research to consider new approaches to clinical management of patients with such conditions. It …
Compliance With ERAS Protocol in Pancreatic Surgery, Stress Response and Outcomes
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the impact of compliance with enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) program on patient reported outcomes (PROs), surgery-specific outcomes and stress response after pancreatic surgery. This prospective observational study will include all consecutive patients undergoing pancreatic surgery over a period of three years …
The Effect of Bariatric Surgery on Insulin Sensitivity and Energy Metabolism
The purpose of this study is: To explore to what extent insulin sensitivity, energy metabolism and ectopic lipid storage can be improved by bariatric surgery To explore to what extent hepatic and muscular disorders of energy metabolism occur in patients with obesity (degree 2-3) To explore whether the steato liver …
Perioperative Anxiety Risk Factors in Parents of Children Undergoing Thoracic Surgery
Risk factors associated with perioperative anxiety in parents of pediatric patients undergoing thoracic surgery are unknown. It is therefore necessary to identify them in order to better understand, above all, modifiable factors. This will allow the implementation of psychological interventions tailored to the individual needs of parents to strengthen their …
Bone Health After Bariatric Surgery in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes
Background: Bone fragility is a complication of type 2 diabetes. Diabetes treatments may ameliorate or deteriorate bone fragility in this population. Bariatric surgery is gaining in popularity in people with type 2 diabetes and may impact bone health. Objectives: To evaluate the impact of the most popular bariatric procedure worldwide …
Evaluation of Pro-Inflammatory Leukocyte Activity in Patients Undergoing Cardiac Surgery
The goal of this proposal is to prospectively collect data from a series of 100 patients (all ages) undergoing complex cardiac surgical procedures involving cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) to Measure the number of blood activated circulating monocytes before, during and after cardiac surgery and serum GABA and pro-inflammatory cytokine levels Understand …
Intraoperative Hyperspectral Imaging for Fluorescence Guided Surgery in Low Grade Gliomas
The purpose of this study is to obtain images of brain tumours during surgery using a new type of surgical camera. The study will assess how the information obtained from the images during surgery matches the removed tissue. Data will also be used to develop the system's key computer-processing features. …
