Functional Impact of Reconstructive Surgery by Harvesting a Vascularized Free Fibula Flap Postoperatively.
The fibula is a leg bone that can be used in complex bone reconstruction by reconstructive surgery. This innovative surgical procedure is increasingly used in complex facial (mandibular) reconstructions following cancer and trauma involving a bone segment. Following this surgery, chronic pain and post-operative complications can occur, with a functional …
Effects of an Opioid Free/Sparing Care Pathway for Patients Undergoing Obesity Surgery
The opioid consumption has exploded in the western world, and for some patient populations such as obese patients, patients with sleep apnoea or patients undergoing cancer treatment, opioid-sparing/ opioid-free strategies could have positive effects on outcomes. Studies suggest that opioids could have opioid-induced immunosuppression, induce chronic post-operative pain syndrome and …
Peri-operative Slow-paced Breathing to Reduce Anxiety in Breast Cancer Surgery Patients
The purpose of this single-center trial is to examine the effects of a slow-breathing technique performed at induction of anesthesia in patients undergoing surgery for breast cancer on anxiety, scored by Spielberger's State-Trait Anxiety Inventory, state scale (STAI-S),13 compared to usual care.
Complete Mesocolic Excision in Comparison With Conventional Surgery for the Right Colon Cancer
An Italian randomized controlled trial parallel-group in patients with a malignant tumor of the right or proximal transverse colon requiring right hemicolectomy.
DIStal gastriC Bypass OUtcome in Revision SurgEry After Roux-en-y Gastric Bypass
This study is designed as a prospective multicenter randomized controlled clinical trial comparing two surgical techniques of distal gastric bypass (DGB) in revisional surgery following failed Roux-en-Y gastric bypass. Patients will be randomly allocated 1:1 to A) DGB with lengthening of the BPL (DGB type I) or B) DGB with …
Preoperative Teriparatide Use on Insertional Torque of Pedicle Screws for Lumbar Fusion Surgery
This project aims to investigate any difference of insertional torque strength for osteoporotic patients with preoperative 1-month teriparatide injections versus those without. The increased insertional torque of pedicle screws during surgery after only 1 month of teriparatide use has also been studied. However, the effect of teriparatide on vertebral body …
High Versus Low Dose Serratus Anterior Plane Block After Minimally Invasive Valve Surgery.
This study aims to compare the efficacy and quality of pain relief provided by the high-dose serratus anterior plane (SAP) block with the standard SAP block in preventing and treating acute postoperative pain after total endoscopic aortic or mitral valve surgery.
Prevention of Postoperative Complications by Negative Pressure Therapy After Complex Breast Cancer Surgery
There is little scientific data concerning the use of negative pressure therapy after immediate breast reconstruction. That strategy of treatment-reconstruction has expanded increasingly since the last years. The current literature reports only 3 studies on the use of preventive negative pressure therapy in oncologic breast surgery. Moreover, all three are …
Trial to Visualize the Ureters With Nizaracianine Triflutate in Adults Undergoing Abdominopelvic Surgery
The goal of this clinical trial is to determine if the drug Nizaracianine Triflutate can help surgeons see and avoid the ureters during abdominopelvic surgery. The ureters are thin-wall, collapsible tubes that connect the kidneys to the bladder. They are difficult to see during surgery and are sometimes damaged accidentally. …
Time to Return of Bowel Function Following Perioperative Probiotics in Colorectal Cancer Surgery
There is pre-existing evidence that probiotics could be useful in the improvement of ileus rates. One metaanalysis of 30 studies demonstrated a reduction in the prevalence of post-operative ileus as determined by time to flatus, time to defecation, as well as postoperative abdominal distension (PMID:37373843). More broadly in gastrointestinal surgery, …
