Neoadjuvant Folfirinox Combined With Pembrolizumab Followed by Surgery for Patients With Resectable Pancreatic Cancer
Abbreviated Title: Neoadjuvant FOLFIRINOX combined with Pembrolizumab followed by surgery for patients with resectable pancreatic cancer Trial Phase: Phase II Clinical Indication: Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma; Adenocarcinoma; AJCC I, II, or III; 1st Line neoadjuvant Trial Type: Interventional prospective Type of control: Historical Route of administration: IV Treatment Groups: Neoadjuvant FOLFIRINOX …
The N-LVA Study: RCT Comparing LVA vs. Sham Surgery in Cancer-related Lymphedema
The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to compare the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of lymphaticovenous anastomosis (LVA) with sham surgery for patients suffering from unilateral cancer-related lymphedema in either the upper or lower extremity. It aims to answer whether LVA is more effective than sham surgery in terms of …
Influence of Nociception Level Monitor (NOL) Guided Analgesic Delivery on Robot-assisted Colorectal Surgery
Being relatively new, the NOL monitor may offer interesting observations in perioperative nociception levels and appropriate analgesic consumption in diverse surgeries, including robot-assisted surgery. These observations may supplement the current efforts towards further advantages in rapid restitution. Therefore, the investigators planned a trial where intra-operative analgesics were guided using an …
Photobiomodulation in Chronic Knee Pain in Patients Who Are in PreRehabilitation for Bariatric Surgery
Chronic pain is a global public health problem, which intensifies even more in the obese population, reaching about 33% of these patients. Among the topography, chronic knee pain affects 80%, constituting an important cause of disability and decreased quality of life. In addition, in grade 3 obesity, also called morbid …
Point-of-care Measurement of the Antifibrinolytic Activity of Tranexamic Acid in Cardiac Surgery
Tranexamic acid (TXA) is a widely used antifibrinolytic agent that can reduce postoperative blood loss and packed red blood cell transfusions during cardiac surgery. Previous (in-vivo) studies have measured TXA plasma concentration and associated clinical effect (e.g. blood loss). Patient blood management guidelines recommend the routine use of TXA in …
Erector Spinae Versus Intercostal Nerve Blocks With Liposomal Bupivacaine for Analgesia in Thoracic Surgery
This clinical trial compares efficacy in postoperative pain management in thoracic surgery between erector spinae block versus liposomal bupivacaine injections.
Buprenorphine as a Post-operative Analgesic in Opioid-Naive Patients After Ankle Fracture Surgery
Addictive full-agonist opioids, like oxycodone and hydrocodone, are often used to treat pain after surgery. However, these full-agonist opioids can be very addictive. After ankle fracture surgery, about 1 in 5 patients that did not take opioids before surgery become addicted to opioids after surgery. Buprenorphine is an opioid with …
Improvements in Thyroid Tumor Surgery and the Prognosis, Diagnosis, Recurrence and Metastasis of Patients
The objective of this research is to investigate the clinical outcomes of modified surgical techniques such as omitting the cervical linea alba suture in transthoracic endoscopic thyroidectomy. Furthermore, the study requires the collection of normal thyroid tissues, benign and malignant thyroid tumors, and lymph nodes to further clarify the mechanisms …
Norepinephrine Weaning Guided by the Hypotension Prediction Index in Vasoplegic Shock After Cardiac Surgery
In postoperative cardiac surgery under extracorporeal circulation, the patient may develop a vasoplegic syndrome, characterized by arterial hypotension (mean arterial pressure (MAP) < 65 mmHg); a decrease in vascular resistance and a cardiac output that may be normal or increased, and increased postoperative mortality/ International recommendations recommend the prescription of …
Liquid Biopsy (ctDNA) Guided Treatment in Localized Pancreatic Cancer: Neoadjuvant CTX vs. Upfront Surgery
This study evaluates the clinical prognostic impact (on DFS and OS) of liquid biopsy guided treatment vs. standard of care (physicians choice) in localized pancreatic cancer (despite because of CA 19-9 levels and computed tomography, upfront surgery is recommended by tumor board). ctDNA positive patients will receive neoadjvuant chemotherapy at …
