Opioid Free Anesthesia-Analgesia Strategy and Surgical Stress in Elective Open Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Repair
Open Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (AAA) repair is a high-risk surgical procedure accompanied by intense endocrine and metabolic responses to surgical stress, with subsequent activation of the inflammatory cascade, cytokine and acute-phase protein release, and bone marrow activation. There is a proven correlation of surgical stress, which patients undergoing open AAA …
An Investigational Scan (89Zr-DFO-GmAb PET/CT) Compared to Contrast-Enhanced CT for the Detection of Recurrent Clear Cell Renal Cell Cancer After Surgery Comparing Carbonic Anhydrase IX (CAIX) PET CT to Conventional PET CT for Post-Op Staging in Kidney Cancer
This phase II trial compares the safety and effectiveness of 89Zr-DFO-GmAb positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) compared to contrast-enhanced CT after surgery in detecting clear cell renal cell cancer that has come back (recurrent). For some patients, the risk of recurrence after surgery remains high. Conventional CT methods, such …
Endoscopic Ultrasound-guided Large Diameter Lumen-apposing Metal Stent Gastro-gastrostomy for Bypass Reversal in Patients With Roux-en-y Gastric Bypass
The primary objective of this open-label pilot study is to investigate whether an endoscopically placed lumen apposing metal stent is an effective alternative to surgery in patients that have a clear indication for reversal of their gastric bypass.
3D Printed Implants for the Defect Reconstruction in Patients With Chest Wall Tumors
A patient with a tumor lesion of the chest wall undergoes CT scan with a step width of less than 1 mm, then engineers design an individual model to replace the defect. Using a 3D printer, a model is made based on titanium alloy powder. Preoperative preparation takes an average …
Tailored Stapled SADI-S: Initial Report and Preliminary Results
Obesity is a serious health problem worldwide and can lead to many diseases such as diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease, and sleep apnea. When lifestyle changes and medications are not enough, metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS) is currently the most effective and long-lasting treatment option. This study focuses on …
PROADAPT-ovary/EWOC-2
PROADAPT is a standardized geriatric intervention that is currently being co-constructed during an exploratory phase on a multi-professional and multi-disciplinary basis after a systematic analysis of published data (Figure). It consists in: 1) before surgery: a prehabilitation of the patients including a nutritional, physical and educational preparation; 2) during the …
Prehabilitation for Ovarian Cancer Patients
Individuals with ovarian cancer have very poor survival rates. This is because the cancer is not usually detected until it has reached advanced stages. How long an individual survives also is determined by the cancer treatment they receive. Although there are best treatment practices to improve survival, some women have …
Nerve Blocks in Alloplastic Breast Reconstruction
Pain management is a major concern in oncologic breast surgery and reconstruction. Significant risks for acute and chronic pain after surgery might be reduced through improved pain control pre-operatively. Addition of regional anesthesia to a multimodal peri-operative pain management protocol offers a promising solution for improved recovery. For patients undergoing …
Effectiveness of Methods for Pyloric Drainage in esophagecTomY: Botox vs. Pyloromyotomy
The goal of this pragmatic, registry-based, randomized clinical trial is to find out if using botulinum toxin (Botox) to help drain the stomach during an esophagectomy works as well as a pyloromyotomy in patients undergoing elective esophagectomy for benign or malignant esophageal disease. Both methods are intended to prevent problems …
Neoadjuvant Intra-tumor Double Immunotherapy for Lung Cancer.
This phase II trial studies how well intra-tumor injection of double checkpoint inhibitors work when given alone and in combination with chemotherapy or/and bevacizumab in treating patients with previously untreated stage I-IIIA non-small cell lung cancer. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as ipilimumab, pembrolizumab or durvalumab, may help the body's …
