Opiates (including sufentanil) …
Driving Pressure During General Anesthesia for Minimally Invasive Abdominal Surgery (GENERATOR)
The purpose of this international multicenter, patient and outcome-assessor blinded randomized controlled trial is to determine whether the application of an individualized high Positive End Expiratory Pressure (PEEP) strategy with recruitment maneuvers, aiming at avoiding an increase in the driving pressure during intraoperative ventilation, protects against the development of postoperative …
Quantitative Versus qUAlitative NeuromoniToring of neUroMuscular Block for Non-cardiothoracic Surgery
The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of quantitative block monitoring versus less expensive qualitative monitoring treatment effects on the lowest SpO2/FiO2 ratio in the PACU. The results will be incorporated into an enhanced recovery pathway for surgical patients.
Preoperative Optimisation of Modifiable Risk Factors in Surgery of the Pancreas
The goal of this stepped-wedge randomized controlled trial is to investigate whether implementation of a best practice program for preoperative optimisation (prehabilitation program) with a focus on screening, assessment, and intervention of 8 potentially (partly) modifiable risk factors in patients with (suspected) pancreatic cancer will improve outcome. The main questions …
