Assessment of Adverse Outcome in Asymptomatic Patients With Prior Coronary Revascularization Who Have a Systematic Stress Testing Strategy Or a Non-testing Strategy During Long-term Follow-up.
Due to the lack of randomized controlled trials, the best follow-up strategy of asymptomatic patients after coronary artery revascularization is controversial. A systematic screening of silent myocardial ischemia may help prevent a major acute cardiac event. However, systematic screening strategy is costly and there is currently no evidence that repeated …
Longitudinal Study of Local Ablative Therapy in Oligometastatic Disease
This prospective national multicenter observational and interventional study aims to assess the longitudinal disease trajectory of patients with oligometastatic disease (OMD) who receive local metastasis-directed therapy. Patients with any category of OMD from any non-hematological cancer are eligible for inclusion. Local ablative therapy (LAT) includes surgical metastasectomy, radiotherapy, thermal ablation, …
Lovenox 30 mg Twice Daily (BID) Versus 40 mg Once Daily (QD)
The risk of developing a blood clot occurs in up to 60% of all critical care patients. Many times enoxaparin (or Lovenox) is given to patients who are at a higher risk of developing clots in their legs or lungs. There are two standard doses of enoxaparin that are recommended …
Neoadjuvant Treatment Modalities in Esophageal Cancer
Esophageal cancer is the most prevalent cancer globally with poor survival outcome. The prognosis with surgery alone is poor, accounting for 30-40% of overall survival at 5 year. Either neoadjuvant chemotherapy (nCT) or chemoradiotherapy (nCRT) has been shown as efficatious therapy to improve patients outcomes in esophageal or esophagogastric junction …
RCT: Early Feeding After PEG Placement
Randomized controlled trial to establish evidence on which to base timing of enteral feeding after bedside PEG placement in ventilated Trauma and Surgical ICU patients.
Comparison of the Outcomes of Single vs Multiple Arterial Grafts in Women
The central hypothesis of ROMA:Women is that the use of multiple arterial grafting (MAG) will improve clinical outcomes and quality of life (QOL) compared to single arterial grfating (SAG). The specific aims of ROMA:Women are: Aim 1: Determine the impact of MAG vs SAG on major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular …
Trajectories of Recovery After Intravenous Propofol Versus Inhaled VolatilE Anesthesia Trial
The investigators will conduct a 12,500-patient randomized multi-center trial to determine (i) which general anesthesia technique yields superior patient recovery experiences in any of three surgical categories ((a) major inpatient surgery, (b) minor inpatient surgery, (c) outpatient surgery) and (ii) whether TIVA confers no more than a small (0.2 %) …
The GUARDIAN Pilot Trial
The treatments will be: 1) norepinephrine or phenylephrine infusion to maintain intraoperative MAP ≥85 mmHg, delayed resumption of chronic antihypertensive medications, and a target ward MAP ≥80 mmHg (tight pressure management); or, 2) routine intraoperative blood pressure management and prompt resumption of chronic antihypertensive medications (routine pressure management).
Effect of Giving Reduced Fluid in Children After Trauma
This study is designed to help decide how much intravenous (IV) fluid should be given to pediatric trauma patients. No standard currently exists for managing fluids in critically ill pediatric trauma patients, and many fluid strategies are now in practice. For decades, trauma patients got high volumes of IV fluid. …
Enhanced Vitals Monitoring After Major Surgery Trial
The aim of this clinical trial is to examine the feasibility of an enhanced vital sign monitoring solution in-hospital and at-home. This study includes adult patients undergoing inpatient major vascular or abdominal surgery. Researchers will compare the enhanced vitals monitoring group to the standard of care group to see if …
