A Study to Understand the Utility of the Force Feedback Instruments in Robotic Procedures Using da Vinci 5 Robot
The goal of this observational study is to understand the utility of force feedback instruments in surgeries that are done using the da Vinci 5 robot.
Peristomal Hernia Rate 5 Years After a Terminal Colostomy With the Parietex ™ TCM Parietal Prosthesis Versus Without Mesh
This study is a follow-up of the GRECCAR 07 cohort (NCT01380860). Patients will be evaluated 5 years following terminal colostomy to observe patient long-term patient outcomes from colostomy with and without mesh placement.
Prediction of TEI Success in Sciatica
Rationale: Treatment with transforaminal epidural injections is part of usual care in patients suffering from lumbar radiculopathy. However, not all patients experience a satisfactory result from this treatment and it is unclear what percentage of patients responds well and if any clinical or radiological factors exist that predict a positive …
Infrared Thermography for Prediction of Successful Erector Spinae Plane Block in Unilateral Inguinal Hernia Surgery in Paediatric Patients
This study aims to evaluate the accuracy of temperature change (ΔT) measurements using infrared thermography to predict a successful erector spinae plane block in pediatric patients undergoing inguinal hernia repair under general anesthesia.
3D Animation and Models to Aid Management of Fetal CDH
We wish to use the images a mother would have done as part of her normal medical care and make both 3D animations and 3D models of the baby and it's CDH. This will both help the parents see what the problem is and also allow the surgeons, who will …
Relationship Between Acute Phase Markers and Post-operative Pain in Open Tension-free Inguinal Hernia Repair: An Observational Study
Many patients undergoing inguinal hernia repair are prone to developing acute and chronic post-operative pain. The aim of the study is to show a possible correlation between pain and acute phase proteins in order to: predict the severity of pain; select most suitable pain relief therapy for the patient.
The Role of Cutibacterium Acnes in the Development of Degenerative Lumbar Intervertebral Disc Disease
The goal of this study is to clarify the role of the bacterium Cutibacterium acnes in the development of degenerative disc disease in patients with lumbar disc herniation who underwent microdiscectomy as part of their regular medical care.
Impact of Muscle Degeneration in Chronic Low Back Pain
Surgical interventions for the removal of intervertebral disc fragments or to enlarge a narrow spine canal are commonly performed worldwide and are considered efficient. Concomitant low back pain is not uncommon among patients with lumbar nerve compression and neurological symptoms. When present, controversy persists in the literature regarding its ideal …
Total Lumbar Disc Prosthesis and Subsequent Work Activity at at Least Five Years After Total Lumbar Disc Replacement
Lumbosciatica is a very prevalent pathology. When conservative treatments fail, surgery should be considered. The traditional surgical treatment is lumbar arthrodesis. The vast majority of patients who undergo spinal fusion cannot return to their same job and a good number of them never work again. Another form of treatment for …
Comparison of Artificial Disc Implants in Cervical Disc Arthroplasty
This study will comprehensively evaluate the outcomes and endpoints of these two different FDA-approved artificial disc implants used to treat cervical spondylotic myelopathy and/or radiculopathy today: Biomet Zimmer Mobi-C and Nuvasive Simplify. Both implants are structurally different with the Nuvasive Simplify implementing a three-piece design with two endplates and a …
