The Direct Oral Anticoagulation Versus Vitamin K Antagonist After Cardiac Surgery Trial
The DANCE Trial is a multi-centre, randomized controlled trial comparing the safety of direct oral anticoagulants (DOAC) versus vitamin K antagonists (VKA) in the early period (30 days) after cardiac surgery in patients with atrial fibrillation requiring oral anticoagulation.
Opioid-free Anesthesia as an Alternative to General Anesthesia in Abdominal Surgery
Opioid-free anesthesia (OFA) is a multimodal technique that eliminates intraoperative opioids by combining dexmedetomidine, ketamine, lidocaine, NSAIDs, and regional analgesia. Growing evidence suggests OFA reduces postoperative opioid consumption, opioid-related adverse effects, and may have favorable oncological implications in cancer surgery. This randomized controlled trial compares OFA with opioid-based anesthesia (remifentanil) …
Collecting Tissue Samples for Future Research From Women Undergoing Surgery for Breast Cancer
RATIONALE: Collecting and storing samples of tumor tissue from patients with breast cancer to study in the laboratory may help doctors learn more about cancer. PURPOSE: This phase I study is collecting tissue samples for future research from women undergoing surgery for breast cancer.
Towards a Sex-specific "Female Enhanced Recovery After Cardiac Surgery'' (F-ERAS) Pathway:
The aim of this study is to evaluate the differences between men and women undergoing cardiac surgery. We will look at perioperative factors such as body weight, body surface area, previous medical history, pharmacokinetics, transfusion, coagulation, cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) related factors, cardiac function, inotropic requirements, risk, and outcome scores as …
Stent Omission After Ureteroscopy and Lithotripsy in the Michigan Urological Surgery Improvement Collaborative
This is a multicenter prospective trial with randomized and observational cohorts assessing patient-reported outcomes and unplanned healthcare utilization following ureteroscopic treatment of renal and ureteral stones, with placement versus omission of a ureteral stent. Eligible participants in the randomization trial will be randomized to ureteroscopy with stent placement or stent …
Efficacy of Atenativ in Patients With Congenital Antithrombin Deficiency Undergoing Surgery or Delivery
The goal of this study is to assess the incidence of the composite of thrombotic events (TEs) and thromboembolic events (TEEs) in patients with congenital antithrombin deficiency under when they receive Atenativ for surgical procedures or parturition.
Targeted Blood-pressure Management and Acute Kidney Injury After Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery
Acute renal injury (AKI) is a common complication after cardiac surgery and is associated with worse outcomes. It is now realized that intraoperative hypotension is an important risk factor for the development of AKI. In a recent randomized controlled trial of patients undergoing major noncardiac surgery, intraoperative individualized blood-pressure management …
Intraocular Lens Power Calculation After Laser Refractive Surgery Based on Optical Coherence Tomography
The long-term goal of this project is to utilize very high-speed optical coherence tomography (OCT) technology to guide surgical treatments of corneal diseases. OCT is well known for its exquisite resolution, but until recently it has not had sufficient speed to capture the shape of the cornea because of eye …
Impact of Core Muscle Training on Incisional Hernia and Pain After Abdominal Surgery
The current practice to avoid incisional hernia, one of the most frequent complications following abdominal surgery, is to minimize core muscle activity in the postoperative phase. However, there is no evidence to support the association of core muscle activity and increased incidence of incisional hernia. On the contrary, it is …
To Evaluate the Performance and Efficiency of Robotic Surgery in Children and Adults
Robotic minimally invasive surgery has been rapidly adopted for a wide variety of surgical procedures in adult patients across a broad spectrum of surgical specialties. This has occurred despite the high costs and uncertain benefits of surgical robots. In contrast, Children's Hospitals and pediatric surgical disciplines have been much slower …
