The Effect of Intrawound Vancomycin Powder in Spine Surgery
Problem: Postoperative wound infection following various spinal surgeries is a serious complication. The incidence of post-surgical wounds in spine surgery is high, and various researchers have reported different infection rates. In addition, increased healthcare costs, prolonged lengths of stay in hospital, and reduced quality of life as a result of …
Personalized Hemodynamic Management in High-risk Major Abdominal Surgery
Postoperative mortality within 30 days after surgery is around 2% in patients having major noncardiac surgery in Europe and the USA. In fact, if the first 30 days after surgery were considered a disease, it would be the third leading cause of death globally. Postoperative deaths are a consequence of …
Goal-directed vs. Empirical Tranexamic Acid Administrationin Cardiovascular Surgery
The present study is a multi-center randomized prospective placebo-controlled non-inferiority trial. The study's primary objective is to compare the amounts of postoperative bleeding using two different TXA administration strategies: empirical TXA administration vs. viscoelastic test-based goal-directed TXA administration in cardiovascular surgery. The secondary objectives include comparing the incidents of hyper-fibrinolysis, …
Preventing Systemic Inflammation After Cardiac Surgery With Alkaline Phosphatase
Study should demonstrate that alkaline phosphatase reduces the incidence and extent of acute kidney injury after cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) as defined by the AKIN criteria.
Dexmedetomidine in Reducing Postoperative Delirium in Cardiac Surgery Patients
Delirium is a common consequence of cardiac surgery and associates with poor outcomes. Multiple causes can trigger delirium occurence, and it has been hypothesised that sleep disturbances can be one of them. Dexmedetomidine may be effective in reducing delirium. The aim of this study was to demonstrate preoperative dexmedetomidine nasal …
Dexamethasone Palmitate for PONV After Minimally Invasive Endoscopic Surgery
Dexamethasone is almost one of the most commonly used drugs for postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) prevention. However, PONV is still a complex problem to be solved; for example, even with preoperative dexamethasone administration, 14.0-26.3% of patients undergoing minimally invasive endoscopic procedures still experience PONV within 24 hours postoperatively. Compared …
Tranexamic Acid for Reduction of Transfusion in Abdominal Surgery
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if the administration of tranexamic acid can reduce the necessity of blood transfusions in adult patients undergoing major abdominal surgery. . It will also inform about safety of tranexamic acid in this setting. The main question it aims to answer is: …
Advanced Goal-Directed Impedancemetry Strategy for Lung Resection Surgery
High-risk patients scheduled for lung resection surgery are increasing and theoretically eligible to perioperative individualized goal-directed fluid therapy (GDFT). However, thoracic surgery is challenging for intraoperative stroke volume (SV) and/or cardiac output monitoring because it requires lateral positioning, one-lung ventilation, and open-chest condition. Pulse contour analysis and esophageal Doppler have …
ARTIST: Aortic Regurgitation Trial Investigating Surgery Versus Trilogy™
To demonstrate non-inferiority of the Trilogy Transcatheter Heart Valve (THV) System compared with surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) for treatment of subjects with clinically significant native aortic regurgitation (AR)
Extended Perioperative Administration of Fibrinolysis Inhibitors After Cardiac Surgery
PRIORITY is a pragmatic, multi-center, cluster crossover trial that aims to evaluate whether implementing a policy of routine extended (intraoperative and 4 hour after transfer to ICU) use of fibrinolysis inhibitors leads to a decrease in post-operative blood transfusion compared to a policy that only involves intraoperative use.
