Telehealth, or telemedicine, utilizes technology to deliver clinical care remotely, either in real time or asynchronously, between clinician and patient. Telemedicine has been successfully implemented to increase healthcare delivery for patients in rural areas with otherwise long travel times, and studies have also determined that telemedicine can increase patient satisfaction …
This randomized, controlled, single-center trial investigates the effects of auricular acupressure, administered according to the National Acupuncture Detoxification Association (NADA) protocol, on perioperative anxiety and pain in patients with a first diagnosis of breast cancer undergoing therapeutic breast surgery. Participants receiving auricular acupressure according to the NADA protocol will be …
The SHAPE study is a prospective, randomized study evaluating changes in cardiac function in adult patients undergoing cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass. The study focuses on how cardiac function changes during surgery and whether the depth of anesthesia may influence these changes. Participants are randomly assigned to one of two …
The goal of this study is to collect biospecimens (blood and cystic fluid) and data from participants who have a pancreatic cyst that requires surgical resection. The blood and fluid samples will be analyzed for research into DNA, RNA, and proteins.
The goal of this research is to study a localization device for breast cancer called OneMark. This device will be studied in breast cancer surgery and during surveillance in patients being monitored for breast cancer. The main questions the study aims to answer are: Can surgeons visualize the OneMark device …
This study aims to improve the prediction for developing arrhythmias in the postoperative period of cardiovascular surgery by using non-invasive echocardiographic techniques that are sensitive to detect inter and intra-atrial dyssynchrony. The main question it aims to answer is: Do patients with atrial dyssynchrony are at increased risk of developing …
Spinal surgery has evolved considerably over the years, and the introduction of advanced technologies has played a crucial role in improving clinical outcomes. The use of surgical robots, such as the eCential Robotic system, has emerged as an innovative solution for optimizing the precision and safety of procedures, particularly the …
Postoperative ileus (POI) is a frequent complication after abdominal surgery, leading to delayed gastrointestinal motility, prolonged hospital stay, and increased patient discomfort. Chewing gum, as a form of sham feeding, has been proposed to stimulate gut motility through vagal stimulation and increased gastrointestinal secretions. This randomized controlled trial aims to …
