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 …
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.
Comparing Hypothermic Temperatures During Hemiarch Surgery
Hypothermic circulatory arrest is an important surgical technique, allowing complex aortic surgeries to be performed safely. Hypothermic circulatory arrest provides protection to cerebral and visceral organs, but may result in longer cardiopulmonary bypass times during surgery, increased risks of bleeding, inflammation, and neuronal injury. To manage these consequences, a trend …
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.
Acetaminophen and AKI After Aortic Surgery
Acute kidney injury is commonly accompanied major complication after aortic surgery. Cardipulmonary bypass lyses erythrocyte and induces lipid peroxidation. This increases plasma free hemoglobin, F2-isoprostane, and isofuran concentration. Cell free hemoglobin have been reported to be associated with poor prognosis such as acute kidney injury, myocardial infarction, and death. Acetaminophen …
Exercise in Patients Undergoing Urologic Surgery
Patients who are being scheduled for an operative procedure with an inpatient postoperative stay are eligible for this study. Participants will be selected to start a physical fitness plan or a nutrition plan at the time of surgical scheduling. Each participant will be asked to continue their current lifestyle for …
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 …
Bromelain for Post-surgery Facial Swelling
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if Bromelain Supplement works to decrease the amount of swelling or the amount of time swelling is present following jaw surgery. It will also learn about the safety of Bromelain supplement. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does Bromelain …
A PREDICTIVE ALGORITHM IN AORTIC SURGERY
We will enroll patients scheduled for abdominal aortic aneurysm repair and divide in two groups; in the control group the hemodynamic optimization will be made based on standard cardiovascular parameters showed in the Hemosphere platform. In the interventional group the hemodynamic optimization will be made based on the hypotension prediction …
Surgery for Locally Unresectable Pancreatic Cancer
Pancreatic cancer is a severe disease often diagnosed at an advanced stage, when surgery is not possible. New chemotherapy treatments can sometimes shrink the tumor and make surgery an option. This study aims to understand if surgery after such treatments can improve survival and quality of life in selected patients …
