The objective of the study was to improve protein intake after the implementation of a dietary workshop performed on the 15th postoperative day following bariatric surgery.
Pterygium is a noncancerous growth of the conjunctival tissue over the cornea. It is a progressive disease that may lead to visual impairment in advanced stages, as well as restriction of ocular motility, chronic inflammation and cosmetic concerns. Surgical removal is the treatment of choice, but recurrence of pterygium is …
The proposed study will be a prospective, randomized, double blind, placebo controlled trial to compare the use of a continuous infusion versus intermittent ketorolac on postoperative patients in the pediatric cardiovascular ICU. We intend to determine if the continuous infusion leads to a decreased utilization of opiates when compared to …
Postoperative delirium is common in patients undergoing cardiovascular surgery and associated with poor outcomes. However the pathogenesis of postoperative delirium is poorly understood. Multichannel electroencephalogram is a recognized tool for identifying neurophysiologic states during anesthesia, sleep, and arousal. The aim of the current study is to evaluate the mechanisms and …
Major spine surgery with multilevel instrumentation is followed by a large amount of opioid consumption, significant pain, and difficult mobilization Pain is one of the main factors limiting ambulation, increasing the risk of thromboembolism by immobility, and causing metabolic changes that affect other systems. Therefore, individualized pain management with the …
Ventilation with low tidal volume and high PEEP (positive end expiratory pressure) has been shown to improve oxygenation in patients with ARDS (acute respiratory distress syndrome). In obese patients undergoing laparoscopic bariatric surgeries, the risk of postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) increases significantly with general anesthesia. Previous studies have shown that …
The purpose of this collaborative CTSA application is to develop an innovative perioperative precision analgesia platform (PPAP) to improve analgesia and reduce serious immediate and long-term adverse outcomes of perioperative opioids in children undergoing painful surgery.
The perioperative period poses a heightened risk of complications for patients, including hypotension. While the issue of intraoperative hypotension is well-documented in medical literature, the occurrence and causes of hypotension in the post-anesthesia care unit often receive less attention. This phase of postoperative care, however, is vital for ensuring patient …
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether phacoemulsification combined with goniosynechialysis (Phaco-GSL) is as effective and safe as trabeculectomy in treating patients with primary angle-closure glaucoma. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does Phaco-GSL provide similar or better intraocular pressure (IOP) control compared to trabeculectomy? …
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if continuous glucose monitoring works to treat postprandial hypoglycaemia in patients who have undergone gastric bypass surgery. The main question it aims to answer is: • Is continuous glucose monitoring superior to usual care for prevention of postprandial hypoglycaemia in patients …
