This randomized controlled trial seeks to address a significant clinical gap by evaluating the outcomes of two postoperative immobilization methods following arthroscopic soft tissue surgery for anterior shoulder instability: a standard static arm sling and a dynamic shoulder orthosis.
Spine surgery for scoliosis correction in pediatric patients is a major procedure associated with a high risk of perioperative blood loss. Homologous blood transfusion carries inherent risks, including immunological reactions, infections, and increased healthcare costs. Identifying high-risk patients is crucial to optimize blood conservation strategies. This retrospective study aims to …
This prospective, randomized, contralateral (crossover) study compares the ultrasound efficiency and early postoperative outcomes (Day 1 and Day 7) of two phacoemulsification platforms - the UNITY® VCS system with 4D Phaco and the Centurion® Vision System with ACTIVE SENTRY® Handpiece - used in the two eyes of the same patient …
Even after the wide introduction of chemo/radiotherapy in the treatment algorithm, adequate surgery remains the cornerstone of gastric cancer treatment with curative intent. A proper D2 lymphadenectomy is associated with improved cancer specific survival as confirmed in Western countries by fifteen-year follow-up results of Dutch and Italian randomized trials. In …
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 …
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 …
OBJECTIVE Low anterior resection syndrome (LARS) is a term for functional bowel complaints occurring after low anterior resection. Symptoms can range from faecal incontinence and frequent loose stools to urgency and incomplete emptying with great impact on quality of life. Little is known about the longitudinal evolution of LARS and …
Video-assisted thoracoscopic lung resection (VATS) is a minimally invasive surgical approach frequently used in the treatment of lung cancers. The most commonly used analgesic technique for this surgery is the paravertebral block with a single peroperative injection of local anesthetic. However, a recent study conducted at our institution revealed that …
The purpose of this study is to determine the association of the social determinants of health with perioperative health literacy in caregivers of children presenting for surgery. Another purpose is to determine the association of caregiver health literacy with preoperative caregiver anxiety and postoperative patient pain scores.
This study aims to obtain short-term clinical results on the safety and efficacy of single-port robot-assisted metabolic weight loss surgery, and to provide further evidence for the clinical promotion of single-port robot systems.
