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 …
Providing effective analgesia after spinal fusion for idiopathic scoliosis remains a challenge with significant practice variation existing among high volume spine surgery centers. Even in the era of multimodal analgesia, opioids are the primary analgesics used for pain control after pediatric scoliosis surgery, but have multiple known adverse effects. The …
This is an observational clinical study aiming to further the wider understanding of patients who develop persistent pain after Thoracoabdominal Aorta surgery, a surgical cohort who are disproportionately affected. This will be undertaken through a prospective biopsychosocial characterisation of the phenotype of patients undergoing this operation. Increasing numbers of patients …
The purpose of this study is to look at pain management with opioids versus non-opioids after knee arthroscopy. This study will determine 1) whether the most commonly used non-narcotic medications provide pain relief comparable with the most commonly prescribed narcotic medications in patients undergoing arthroscopic knee surgery, and 2) whether …
This is a single-center, prospective, observational, real world study designed to evaluate the effects of peginterferon α-2b(pegabin) combined with nucleoside (acid) analogs (entecavir,ETV tenofovir,TDF tenofovir alafenamide,TAF) on patients after radical surgery for hepatitis B associated hepatocellular carcinoma by collecting data from patients at our hospital
The aim of this study is to determine if a standardized evidence-based opioid prescription following elective hand and forearm surgery at Toronto Western Hospital (TWH) will decrease the number of unused opioid pills consumed by patients while still maintaining adequate pain control as compared to usual treatment. Currently, no standardized …
Results are inconsistent and further studies are needed to better understand the impact of bariatric surgery on the bone-BMA relationship depending on the type of bariatric surgery: RYGB vs. SG. Future studies are also needed to define the molecular mediators of bone loss and BMA changes. Several molecular mediators have …
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 …
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 …
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 …
