The goal of this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, 2×2 factorial trial is to evaluate the effect of intraoperative dexmedetomidine combined with either femoral nerve block (FNB) or adductor canal block (ACB) on postoperative sleep quality in patients aged 18-85 years with ASA I-III undergoing elective knee arthroscopy under general anesthesia. The …
Elderly patients are frequently burdened with age-associated comorbidities and frailty, accompanied by physiological changes such as vascular stiffening, cardiac dysfunction, and impaired autonomic regulation. These factors not only increase the risk of adverse perioperative outcomes but also heighten sensitivity to anesthetic agents, making elderly patients particularly susceptible to anesthesia-related complications, …
Emergency laparotomy is associated with high postoperative morbidity and mortality. This risk is particularly high among elderly patients, who often present with reduced physiological reserve, frailty, and multimorbidity. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of a structured postoperative physiotherapy program in patients aged 65 years and …
This study aims to evaluate the effect of a 5-week concurrent exercise program (aerobic and resistance training) on muscle quality, body composition, functional response, and quality of life in individuals undergoing bariatric surgery. This is a single-center, prospective, longitudinal, non-randomized controlled clinical trial with two groups: intervention and control. A …
Opioids are widely used during anesthesia for pain control, but they cause many side effects-such as nausea, constipation, respiratory depression, dependence, and delayed recovery. They can also worsen low blood pressure in patients with unstable circulation. Because of these risks, multimodal analgesia is recommended to reduce opioid use. Research on …
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.
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 …
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 …
This is a prospective cohort study designed to assess intra-abdominal blood volume and hemodynamic status by measuring the diameter of the inferior vena cava (IVC) using 3D and Doppler ultrasound within 24 hours after gynecological surgery. The study will examine the association between these ultrasound findings and postoperative outcomes, including …
