Evaluation of Laparotomy With Trans-Amniotic Suture Placement in TTTS Surgery
This is a randomized trial for patients that are diagnosed with Twin-Twin Transfusion Syndrome (TTTS) who are receiving a fetoscopic laser surgery to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of a laparotomy closure.
Cauterization Versus fibrin Glue for Conjunctival Autografting in Primary Pterygium 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 …
Effect of High Dose Insulin on Infectious Complications Following Major Surgery
Despite improvements in surgical techniques and perioperative care, the high incidence of postoperative surgical site infections remains a major problem in patients undergoing major abdominal surgery (liver, pancreatic and colorectal surgery). Using the hyperinsulinemic-normoglycemic clamp technique, i.e. continuous infusion of insulin combined with dextrose titrated to "clamp" blood glucose between …
Continuous vs Intermittent Ketorolac for Pain Control in Peds CV Surgery
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 …
Perioperative EEG-Monitoring and Postoperative Delirium in Patients Undergoing Cardiovascular 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 …
Personalized Perioperative Analgesia Platform (PPAP) for Pediatric Spine Fusion Surgery (sIRB)
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.
Comparison of Phaco Surgery With Goniosynechialysis Versus Trabeculectomy in Glaucoma Treatment
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? …
Breast Cancer BRAs Study (Breast Cancer Biomechanics of Radiotherapy And Surgery)
This study, delivered by Portsmouth Hospitals University NHS Trust in conjunction with the Research Group in Breast Health at the University of Portsmouth \[1\], aims to assess whether it is possible to test breast biomechanics in women who have had surgery with or without radiotherapy for the treatment of breast …
Respiratory Sinus Arrhythmia Pacing Post-CABG Surgery in Patients With HFrEF
The goal of this clinical trial is to test a new type of pacemaker in heart failure patients following a heart bypass operation. The new pacemaker restores respiratory sinus arrhythmia which is a natural pattern where the heart rate increases when the participants breathe in and slows down when participants …
Serratus Anterior Plane Block and Transthoracic Plane Block in Pectus Surgery
The most important problem in the postoperative period in patients scheduled for pectus deformity correction surgery is pain. Due to the catastrophic neurological complications of thoracic epidural analgesia, the tendency towards plane blocks has been increasing in recent years. Serratus Plane Block (SAP Block), performed under ultrasound guidance, is used …
