Neoadjuvant Hypofractionated Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy Prior to Surgery for Hepatocellular Carcinoma: a Feasibility Study.
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the fifth more common cancer in the world, with high mortality rates, due to the low number of patients who are eligible for therapy with curative intent, like surgical resection. Moreover, surgical resection is associated with a high risk of tumor recurrence, because of the tumor …
Cone-beam CT Guided Microcoil Localization of Pulmonary Nodules During Video Assisted Thoracic Surgery(VATS)
The Guided Therapeutics (GTx) program at the University Health Network is a network of clinicians, scientists, and engineers focused on the development and translation of image-guided technologies focused on minimally-invasive, adaptive therapies. Technologies developed within the GTx program include a portable intra-operative cone-beam CT (in collaboration with Siemens) that has …
Effectiveness of Dual Light Electric Toothbrush vs. Manual Toothbrush in Orthodontic Patients Undergoing Oral Surgery
The study is a randomized clinical trial to compare the effectiveness of a dual light ultrasonic toothbrush on periodontal health in orthodontic patients undergoing surgery. Patients with cleft lip and palate undergo bone graft and orthognathic surgery. The study will compare the periodontal outcomes in patients who use these toothbrushes …
The Sedative Effects of Dexmedetomidine VS Propofol During Peribulbar Anesthesia in Patients Undergoing Vitrectomy Surgery
The aim of the work to compare the Sedative Effects of Dexmedetomidine and Propofol during peribulbar anesthesia in patients undergoing vitrectomy surgery on hemodynamic, respiratory parameters, recovery profile, analgesic effects, post-operative cognitive function, patients satisfaction and adverse events.
Comparative Effectiveness and Safety of ELIOS in Patients With Open-Angle Glaucoma Undergoing Cataract Surgery
The primary study objective is to compare the effectiveness of the combination of phacoemulsification with intraocular lens implant with ELIOS or competitor device in reducing IOP at 12 months postoperatively.
Effects of Growth Hormone Therapy on Metabolic Function in Fatty Liver Post-Pituitary Adenoma Surgery
Growth Hormone (GH) is essential for maintaining fat, muscle, bone, and energy balance. Adult Growth Hormone Deficiency (GHD) affects about 0.3% of adults. GHD, common post-pituitary tumor surgery or radiotherapy, disrupts lipid metabolism, increasing triglycerides and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol while decreasing high-density lipoprotein cholesterol. This is especially severe in GH …
Active Surveillance and Chemotherapy Before Surgery in Treating Participants With Stage II-III Rectal Cancer
This pilot trial studies how well active surveillance and chemotherapy before surgery work in treating participants with stage II-III rectal cancer. Active surveillance involves monitoring participants for additional tumor growth after receiving cancer treatment. Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either …
Non-pharmacological Prevention of POD in Frailty Elderly Undergoing Elective Surgery Applied by Nursing Teams
The increase in the population over 60 years of age who could receive surgery due to changes in life expectancy and advances in surgical and anesthetic techniques. Likewise, elderly people (EP) may have a higher risk of postoperative morbidity and mortality compared to young people, with frailty being one of …
Effects of Ciprofol on Postoperative Delirium and Outcomes in Elderly Patients Undergoing Major Thoracic Surgery
There are many factors that make elderly patients prone to POD. On the basis of these factors, surgery and anesthesia can increase the incidence of POD in elderly patients. Deep depth of intraoperative anesthesia and persistent hypotension may increase the risk of POD occurrence in elderly patients. So far, no …
Efficacy of the Association of Fractionated SRS and Subsequent Surgery in Patients With Brain Metastases
In this study, the possibility of performing a preoperative neoadjuvant radiotherapy dose of 27 Gy fractionated in 3 sessions is explored, to maximize the biological effect of the treatment, in patients affected by solid tumors, in particular lung, breast and melanoma, in which brain metastases have arisen, the incidence of …
