Evaluation of Postoperative Pain Control in Ear Surgery
Middle ear surgery is the most popular procedure in ear, nose and throat surgery. Increased sympathetic stimulation after surgery can activate the sympathetic system, causing hypertension and increased heart rate. As a result of these clinical conditions, hemorrhage can occur, which can impair the quality of the surgical field, which …
Serratus and Parasternal Infrapectoral Block for Breast Surgery.
Effective pain control is important following breast surgery as it improves quality of recovery, decreases the risk of chronic pain development and reduction of overall health care cost. Current strategies of pain management for breast surgery include use of opioid medication or addition of regional anesthesia along with general anesthesia. …
PREhabilitation in Patients Awaiting Acute Inpatient Cardiac SurgEry
This is a single centre, single arm pilot feasibility study to determine the feasibility and practicality of prehabilitation in acute inpatients waiting for cardiac surgery. We will be looking into participant eligibility, acceptability, recruitment rates, completion rates and barriers to implementing a prehabilitation programme. Secondary outcomes include safety (incidence of …
Omission of Axillary Surgery in Breast Cancer Patients
The treatment and prognosis of breast cancer (BC) are dependent on its molecular subtype and nodal burden. In early BCs with favourable molecular subtype, the incidence of axillary node involvement is low. However, these patients are still subjected to an axillary operation, which can result in additional cost, operating time …
HPI for Prevention of Hypotension During Cardiac Surgery
Hypotension prediction index (HPI) was applied in various types of non-cardiac surgery with convincing benefits of preventing hypotensive events and clinical sequelae. Although HPI was validated in cardiac surgery, its clinical benefits are not proven yet. We aim to evaluate its effects on intraoperative hypotension and postoperative adverse events in …
Delirium After Cardiac Surgery in Intensive Care Units
STUDY SUMMARY STUDY DESIGN The study will be conducted over twelve months in the Cardiac Intensive Care Unit (ICU) at Hammersmith Hospital, Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust (ICHT). This study is a mixed methods research design that includes the collection of data through qualitative interviews, quality-of-life questionnaires and patients' medical …
Intraoperative Dexmedetomidine and Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery
This is a prospective randomized clinical trial designed to determine the effect of intraoperative dexmedetomidine administration on renal function after coronary artery bypass graft surgery.
Hepatic and Systemic Hemodynamic Modeling During Liver Surgery
" Despite the medical and surgical progress of the last two decades, the selection of candidates for liver surgery remains based on old principles and insufficiently sensitive to fine-tune the gesture to patient-specific characteristics and make almost zero risks of postoperative liver failure (PLF) and death. It is therefore necessary …
Interest of Wicking for Ossicular Surgery and Myringoplasty
Myringoplasties and ossicular surgery are very common procedures. Following these otological surgeries, most surgeons install a wicking. This intervention consists of placing a wick, absorbable or not, in the external acoustic meatus, after having replaced the tympanomeatal flap.
Predicting the Pain Outcome of Surgery for Endometriosis
This study aims to determine whether the investigators can predict who will get benefit in terms of their pain from surgery for more severe forms of endometriosis. The investigators will use brain imaging to explore this, as it allows meaningful results from a smaller sample of people than if questionnaires …
