Femoral Arterial Cannulation in Pediatrics
The goal of this clinical trial] is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the ultrasound-guided "Modified Dynamic Needle Tip Positioning Short-Axis, Out-Of-Plane" (MDNTP-SAOP) technique compared to the "Conventional, Short-Axis, Out-Of-Plane" (C-SAOP) technique for femoral arterial cannulation performed by anesthesia residents in children. The main question it aims to answer …
Influence of Oxygen on Perioperative Outcome in Patients Undergoing General Anaesthesia for Elective Non-cardiac Surgery
The purpose of this study is to investigate the impact of supraphysiologic oxygen (hyperoxia) on myocardial function in anaesthetized patients undergoing non-cardiac vascular surgery.
Total Intravenous Versus Inhalational Anesthesia- A Geriatric Anesthesia Study
Traditionally, general anesthesia is maintained with inhalational anesthesia (GAS), but there is a gap in knowledge regarding whether intravenous anesthesia (IV) can prevent deleterious postoperative outcomes in the geriatric surgical population. The goal of this clinical trial is to determine whether intravenous anesthesia (IV) leads to a decreased incidence of …
Deep Rectus Sheath Block for Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy
Postoperative pain after laparoscopic cholecystectomy can be considerable. Regional techniques such as erector spinae plane (ESP) block or transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block may be suitable for patients at increased risk of postoperative pain. The deep rectus sheath block is a novel block which is a modified version of the …
Comparison of Interscalene Catheter to Single Injection Interscalene Blocks for Total Shoulder Arthroplasties
Comparison of post-operative pain after total shoulder surgery. The Principle Investigator will be comparing Exparel single shot block to Interscalene catheter
Local Anesthesia for Facial Fractures
The study is a double-blind randomized, placebo controlled trial examining the impact of perioperative bupivacaine nerve block on PACU recovery metrics. Patients with operative facial fractures are randomized to receive either bupivacaine or saline injections prior to the anesthesia emergence.
Effect of Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy on Cardiac Function of Perioperative Patients With Breast Cancer and New Strategies for Anesthesia
As is well known, perioperative hemodynamic fluctuations, such as decreased blood pressure and heart rate, and cardiac dysfunction, are common complications after anesthesia. General anesthetics such as propofol and sufentanil can inhibit the central nervous system, reduce cardiac excitability and myocardial contractility, dilate peripheral blood vessels, and have a high …
Erector Spinae Plane Block Catheters and Intrathecal Morphine for Hepatic Resection
To determine whether the addition of erector spinae plane (ESP) catheters to existing multimodal analgesic regimen with intrathecal morphine provides superior postoperative analgesia in patients undergoing hepatic resection compared with patients not receiving ESP catheters.
Anesthesia Induced Brain Cancer Survival (ABC Survival): A Feasibility Study
Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide. It is estimated that approximately 55,000 Canadians are surviving with brain tumors. It is projected that around 3000 persons will be diagnosed with brain and spinal cord tumors, and approximately 75 percent patients will not survive. Out of all brain cancers, high-grade …
Oral Methadone in Cardiac Surgery
The purpose of this study is to compare the effects of administration of oral methadone preoperatively and intravenous methadone upon induction of general anesthesia on postoperative pain for patients undergoing elective cardiac surgery.
