This study is designed to evaluate the efficacy of topical tranexamic acid to reduce perioperative blood loss, reduction in postoperative drain output and allogenic transfusion requirements. The proposed study will be a prospective, randomized, double-blind (subject, surgeons, investigators, research coordinators) placebo-controlled study. Patients requiring posterior spinal fusion will be enrolled …
Ischemia and reperfusion (I/R) injury during abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) repair is inevitable and may lead to postoperative multi-organ failure. Remote ischemic preconditioning (short periods of ischemia in anticipation of longer period of ischemia) may act protectively against ischemia. Studies of ischemic preconditioning in patients with AAA are conflicting. Obstructive …
It is controversial that totally laparoscopic right hemicolectomy with transvaginal natural orifice specimen extraction (NOSES VIIIA) can provide non-inferior oncological outcomes compared to conventional laparoscopic surgery with mini-laparotomy in the treatment of right colon cancer. We aim to carry out a multicenter, open-lable, parallel, non-inferiority, phase III, randomized controlled clinical …
This study is designed to explore dry eye disease (DED) pattern: ocular surface, corneal morphological changes, patients' subjective assessment of DED and their correlations with ocular surface inflammation, pain biomarkers after cataract surgery according to ocular surface lubrication with artificial tears during long-term follow-up.
Virtual reality has been shown to reduce the pain experienced during medical procedures. The aim of this study is to determine to what extent the use of this technique could make it possible to defer the administration of neuroleptanalgesia during the endovenous thermal treatment of superficial varicose veins in addition …
The overall objective of the Scleroderma Registry is to support and promote the basic science and clinical research of this complex rheumatic disease at the Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS). The registry facilitates our understanding of the clinical features, pathobiology, genetics of Scleroderma. This will ultimately lead to a potential …
The management of stricturing Crohn's disease (CD) remains challenging. Although surgical resection may be the final way to solve it, the efficacy of biologics for symptomatic CD associated strictures was acceptable. In clinical practice, the chioce of treatment is particularly difficult. Therefore, a clinical trial of biologics versus surgery is …
The treatment of periodontitis should be carried out in an incremental manner, first by achieving adequate patient's oral hygiene practices and risk factor control during the first step of therapy and then, during the second step of therapy, by professional elimination (reduction) of supra and subgingival biofilm and calculus. If …
Breast cancer is the second most common cancer diagnosed in American women . For patients who have undergone surgical mastectomy, autologous breast reconstruction is an alternative option to breast implants. Deep Inferior Epigastric Perforator (DIEP) flaps are the gold standard for autologous breast reconstruction . Effective pain control following surgery …
The goal of this study is to study the incidence of post-operative Transient Neurologic Events (TNEs) within 30 days postoperatively, as assessed by clinical neurological scales, binned by week. Collect data on all interventions and assessments performed during the recovery post surgery up to 30 days, to understand what factors …
