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 …
Colchicine in Patients at Cardiac Risk Undergoing Major Non-Cardiac Surgery
Perioperative myocardial injury and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) are common causes of morbidity and mortality in patients at increased cardiovascular risk undergoing non-cardiac surgery. However, research in recent years has yielded limited preventive and therapeutic measures for myocardial injury/MACE. Recent studies in patients with chronic and acute coronary artery …
The Causal Effect of Bariatric Surgery on Cardiovascular Disease and Mortality
The association between weight, and cardiovascular disease and mortality is well established, however, the causal effect of weight-loss in midlife on these outcomes is less clear. Bariatric surgery results in substantial weight-loss and is an ideal candidate to study the causal effects of weight-loss. The investigators propose a project that …
ART Trial: Transcatheter J-VALVE Versus Surgery for Aortic Regurgitation Therapy
The overall purpose of ART trial is to establish the Safety and Efficacy of the J-VALVE Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement Versus Surgical Aortic Valve Replacement in Patients with Grade≥3+ Native Aortic Regurgitation.
Gabapentin And Breast Surgery Decision Architecture Randomization Trial (GABS-DART) Protocol
This study aims to assess whether gabapentin should be a standard component of peri-operative pain control in mastectomy patients at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center.
Acute Preoperative Pain and Chronic Post-surgical Pain in Emergency Surgery
Studies evaluating postoperative pain as a risk factor for CPSP are almost exclusively carried out in the context of scheduled surgery. As a result, the preoperative pain studied as a risk factor for chronicity is essentially a state of pain that has persisted for several weeks or even several months. …
Digital Early Warning System for Acute Lung Injury in Liver Surgery
This study focuses on developing an explainable machine learning model based on cardiopulmonary interaction characteristics to achieve early prediction of acute lung injury (ALI) in patients undergoing major liver surgery. The research will establish a digital early-warning system for ALI to provide support for clinical diagnosis and treatment decisions, thereby …
Nitric Oxide for Reduced Intensive Support in Cardiac Surgery With Cardiopulmonary Bypass
Cardiac surgery is a procedure that is commonly performed worldwide. Despite these technological advances, cardiac surgery remains a high-risk surgery. Among post-operative complications, acute kidney injury, respiratory failure, myocardial infarction, and stroke as well as cognitive dysfunction are significant causes of mortality in patients undergoing and following cardiac surgery. Inhaled …
Wearable Device-Based Early Warning of Postoperative Complications in Thoracic Surgery
After thoracic surgery, some patients may develop complications such as lung infection, abnormal heart rhythm, fluid around the lung, prolonged air leak, wound infection, emergency department visits, or hospital readmission. These problems may not be found early if monitoring is only done during routine vital sign checks or follow-up visits. …
