Cardiorespiratory changes during lung resection surgery, even though generally well tolerated, may lead to hemodynamic compromise, reducing venous return to the heart and hence cardiac output. Carotid corrected flow time is widely regarded as non-invasive index of preload status, yet its dynamic relationship with cardiac output, especially in surgical population …
This study evaluates whether preoperative hypnosis can reduce postoperative pain, nausea, and opioid use in adolescents undergoing scoliosis surgery. Participants aged 12-18 years will receive hypnosis training before surgery. Outcomes include pain scores, nausea severity, opioid consumption, and length of hospital stay. Results will be compared to a historical control …
This randomized controlled trial will evaluate whether immersive virtual reality can reduce anxiety in adults undergoing surgical removal of mandibular third molars under local anesthesia. A total of 120 participants will be assigned to either an immersive virtual reality group or a standard-care control group. Participants in the virtual reality …
Spinal cord stimulation (SCS) has shown to be an effective treatment for patients with persistent spinal pain syndrome Type 2 (PSPS Type 2). The method used to deliver electrical charge in SCS is important. One such method is burst stimulation. Two variations of burst waveforms are currently in use: one …
This prospective, randomized, open-label, multicenter study is designed to evaluate the impact of an enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocol on the rate of meeting discharge criteria in patients undergoing minimally-invasive gastrectomy for gastric cancer. We hypothesize that implementation of our ERAS protocol will significantly increase the proportion of patients …
Sternal bleeding remains an unsolved problem for cardiac surgery teams costing operative time, blood loss, and distraction from the critical operative field. As such, the following is an investigator-initiated trial to determine whether application of a topical hemostatic agent reduces sternal bleeding during cardiac surgery using sternotomy approach.
Evaluation of the effectiveness of differential target multiplexed spinal cord stimulation for treatment of Persistent Spinal Pain Syndrome Type II (PSPS-T2). Identification of clinical effective parameters concerning frequency, pulse duration, amplitude and battery consumption/recharge frequency and safety evaluation.
This pilot study investigates the effects of reducing pain medication including opioids and anticonvulsants, on spinal cord sensitivity during closed-loop spinal cord stimulation (SCS). Patients with Persistent Spinal Pain Syndrome Type 2 (FBSS/FNSS) will undergo a standard 21-day SCS trial with the Evoke closed-loop system, followed by permanent implantation if …
This is a trial to assess the accuracy of an imaging agent, PSMA targeted fluorescent dye OTL78 (zopocianine), in combination with Near InfraRed (NIR) fluorescent imaging, to improve the detection of malignant (growing in an uncontrolled way) tissue in adult patients undergoing standard of care prostatectomy and lymph node dissection …
INESS Antibiotic Prophylaxis in Orthopedic Guide recommends the use of Cefazolin at induction for all orthopaedic procedure with implantation of internal fixation device. With the increasing rate of identified P. acnes shoulder surgery infection despite the use of recommended skin preparation and preoperative prophylactic antibiotics, a question arises; Is Cefazolin …
