Effect of Optimized PEEP on Mechanical Ventilation During Robot Assisted Laparoscopic Prostatectomy
Steep trendelenburg posture or pneumoperitoneum for surgery causes ventilation problems during surgery, so finding a way to overcome is a challenging task for anesthesiologists. In this study, for patients undergoing robot assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy under general anesthesia, anesthesia is going to perform by applying conventional positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP 5cmH2O) …
Moderate Hypofractionated Boost to the Prostate With Pelvic RT in High Risk Prostate Cancer
This is a single-arm phase II prospective trials that is recruiting 100 participants. The study population that is being investigated are patients with localized high-risk or node-positive prostate cancer. Participants will receive external beam radiotherapy as a moderately hypofractionated boost to the prostate with pelvic radiation therapy. Androgen deprivation therapy …
PSMA Response in Metastasized Hormone Sensitive Prostate Cancer
PSMA-PET/CT response measurements after LHRH agonist and upfront therapy in men diagnosed with de novo metastasized hormonal sensitive prostate cancer.
Needle Localization During Prostate Brachytherapy Using Power Doppler Ultrasound
This study involves patients who are scheduled for standard care brachytherapy of focal tumours within the prostate, which is normally performed under standard 2-dimensional (2D) ultrasound guidance. The purpose of this study is the acquire power Doppler ultrasound while using a simple oscillator in physical contact with the end of …
Hereditary Risk Factors for Thyroid Cancer
Thyroid cancers can occur sporadically, but can also be found as tumors that cluster in families with other cancers or genetic syndromes. Researchers are studying thyroid cancer in children and families, with a particular interest in understanding genes and other factors that may put individuals at risk for developing thyroid …
Prostate Cancer Treatment Using Androgen Deprivation Therapy and Focal Prostate Ablation
The purpose of this research is to gather information on the safety and effectiveness of combining focal prostate ablation therapy ((aka Focal Therapy, a surgical procedure) and androgen deprivation therapy (hormone therapy).
Laparoscopic Versus Open Right Colectomy for Right Colon Cancer
The purpose of this research protocol is to compare open versus laparoscopic right colectomy (according to the CME technique of complete mesocolic excision) for right colon cancer. This study will be designed as a prospective randomized controlled trial. The comparison of the two techniques will include endpoints regarding the quality …
Impact of Hormonal Therapy on Prostate Cancer Recurrence After Radical Prostatectomy
Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men and radical prostatectomy is the most frequent treatment for this disease. Unfortunately, approximately 40% of patients will develop recurrence after surgery, requiring additional salvage radiation. Salvage radiation after recurrence is successful in less than half of these men and most of …
Specific Training After Stoma Surgery
In Sweden, approximately 43,000 people have undergone surgery with ileo-, colo- or urostomy. The most common type of stomy is a sigmoidostomy. A large proportion, about 50%, of patients who receive a permanent sigmoidostomy develop a parastomal hernia which may have major impact. There are indications that specific abdominal exercise …
Hypofractionated Expedited Radiotherapy for Men With localisEd proState Cancer
The purpose of this research is to investigate whether stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT), precise X-ray treatment, is best given in five treatments (also called fractions) over 10 days or in two treatments over 8 days. SBRT is an accurate way to deliver a high dose of radiotherapy to the prostate …
