External Vacuum Expansion: Evaluation in Breast Reconstructive Surgery Evaluation in Breast Reconstructive Surgery
This multicentre randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate a new breast reconstruction technique- autologous fat transfer (AFT). Female patients with breast cancer schedule to receive a mastectomy (or having undergone mastectomy in the past) will be randomized to undergo breast reconstruction with either AFT with the EVEBRA device(intervention group) or …
Intraoperative Lidocaine Infusion and Surgery-induced Release of Pro-inflammatory Cytokines After Abdominal Surgery
Lidocaine is an amide local anaesthetic and an antiarrhythmic agent, first synthesized in 1942, and after approval for human use was launched in 1948 in Sweden The first observations of post operative analgesic effects of perioperative intravenous lidocaine (IVL) were initially proposed in 1951 subsequently many more enthusiastic reports followed. …
Patients Undergoing Laparoscopic Colorectal Surgery Walk Out From Operating Room After Surgery ( WOFOR-C1 )
Early mobilization is considered as an important strategy to enhance postoperative recovery. However, direct association between very early mobilization and improved recovery needs randomized control trials to prove. This study proposes the program of walking out from operating room (WOFOR) after surgery, which means that encouraging patients to walk out …
Fiber Supplementation After Bariatric Surgery
Test compliance and gastrointestinal tolerance of a 30-day dose of potato starch in bariatric patients, and determine if short chain fatty acids, specifically butyrate, increase in response to the dosages of potato starch.
Protein Supplementation After ACL Surgery
The purpose of the study is to assess the longitudinal post-operative care effects of protein supplementation on muscle atrophy in the post-operative period following ACL reconstruction. The main outcome will be muscle size/mass as measured using dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) scanning. The primary objective is to assess for any …
I-ASV in Cardiac Surgery
'POStoperative INTELLiVENT-adaptive support VEntilation in cardiac surgery patients II (POSITiVE II) is an investigator-initiated, international, multicenter, parallel, randomized clinical trial in patients after cardiac surgery.
Platelet Function After Cardiac Surgery.
Intraoperative cell salvage is commonly used in cardiac surgery to reduce the administration of allogeneic red blood cells and thus improve the outcome for the patient. When processing the salvaged blood, however, a large part of the patient's plasma is washed out. This is a disadvantage with regard to an …
Surgery Plus Chemo Versus Chemoradiotherapy Followed by Surgery Plus Chemo for Locally Recurrent Rectal Cancer
JCOG1801 is a randomized phase III trial which was initiated in Japan in August 2019 to confirm the superiority of preoperative chemoradiotherapy followed by surgery plus adjuvant chemotherapy for local relapse-free survival over standard treatment, i.e. surgery plus adjuvant chemotherapy, for previously non-irradiated locally recurrent rectal cancer.
Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy Before Surgery
This is a single-arm, single-center feasibility trial of patients with borderline resectable pancreatic adenocarcinoma receiving chemotherapy with mFOLFIRINOX or gemcitabine / nab-paclitaxel followed by pancreatectomy.
Diaphragm Paralysis: Surgery or Mechanical Ventialion
Summary Rationale: The diaphragm is a dome-shaped muscle which separates the thoracic cavity from the abdomen. In patients with diaphragm paralysis the treatment (surgery versus non-invasive ventilation) is based on physician preference, not sound scientific evidence. Clearly studies are needed to guide a scientific decision making. Objective: In this pilot …
