LSALT Peptide for Prevention or Attenuation of Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) in Patients Undergoing On-Pump Cardiac Surgery
To evaluate the percentage of subjects with AKI within 7 days following on-pump cardiac surgery defined by the KDIGO (Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes) criteria: Increase in baseline (pre-surgery) serum creatinine (SCr) by ≥26.5 μmol/L (≥0.3 mg/dL) within 7 days; OR Increase in baseline SCr to ≥1.5 times baseline, which …
Clonidine in Ultrasound-guided Rectus Sheath Block for Outpatient Umbilical Hernioplasty
This clinical trial aims to evaluate the effectiveness of an ultrasound-guided nerve block technique as the sole anesthetic method for patients undergoing outpatient umbilical hernia surgery. The procedure, called rectus sheath block (RSB), involves injecting local anesthetic near the abdominal muscles to reduce pain during and after surgery. The study …
Radiotherapy vs. Trans-Oral Surgery for HPV-Negative Oropharyngeal Squamous Cell Carcinoma
The goal of this randomized phase II study is a formal comparison of radiotherapy versus trans-oral surgery as the primary treatment of HPV-negative patients with early-stage oropharyngeal carcinoma.
Single Pre-Operative Radiation Therapy - With Delayed or No Surgery (SPORT-DNS)
Eligible women will receive neoadjuvant single fraction radiotherapy followed by surgery performed after one year
Gender-specific Preoperative Anxiety Level and Postoperative Opioid Requirement After ENT Surgery.
The study will be designed to investigate the impact of the preoperative anxiety level on postoperative opioid requirement during the PACU stay, in order to improve postoperative pain treatment in the long term after ENT surgery. The present study can contribute to improve postoperative pain management in patients in the …
Intrathecal Morphine for Analgesia in Video-assisted and Robotic-assisted Thoracic Surgery
VATS/RATS is widely used for diagnosis and treatment of intrathoracic conditions. Despite many benefits, postoperative pain continues to be intense after VATS/RATS. The optimal strategy for pain management has not been defined. In this randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blinded clinical investigation, investigators hypothesize that 5 mcg/kg intrathecal morphine will decrease postoperative analgesic …
Does Blood Flow Restriction Training Improve Quadriceps Function After Arthroscopic Knee Surgery?
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of physical therapy (PT) plus BFR training compared to PT alone (without BFR training) after ACL reconstruction in patients who require extended limited weight bearing through assessment of patient reported outcomes and functional testing. The hypothesis is that PT plus …
Pulsed Electromagnetic Field (PEMF) Therapy for Post-operative Pain Following Orthopedic Surgery
The primary objective of this study is to prospectively determine, at 10 days after orthopedic shoulder or knee surgery, if pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) therapy is beneficial in reducing patient-reported post-operative pain, as measured by visual analog scale (VAS). The amount of pain medication taken daily and the physical function …
Testing the Addition of Immunotherapy Before Surgery for Patients With Sarcomatoid Mesothelioma
This phase II trial evaluates the safety and effectiveness of giving immunotherapy (nivolumab and ipilimumab) before surgery for controlling disease in patients with stage I-IIIa sarcomatoid mesothelioma. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab and ipilimumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the …
Deep Brain Stimulation Surgery for the Treatment of Refractory Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder
This study will include two parts. The first part will include two patients in a non-blinded, non-randomized, open trial. They will undergo Deep Bran Stimulation (DBS) for OCD (targeting the amSTN), as clinically accepted and approved in Israel (by the MOH) and in other countries in Europe and the US. …
