Sigh Ventilation in Cardiac Surgery
The purpose of this trial is to investigate whether sigh ventilation strategy, combining sigh breaths, low tidal volume, and moderate PEEP levels, protects against major pulmonary complications within the first 7 postoperative days after cardiac surgery, as compared with conventional ventilation strategy with low tidal volume, and moderate PEEP levels.
Effects of Ciprofol on Myocardial Injury After Non-cardiac Surgery in Video-Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery
Myocardial injury after noncardiac surgery (MINS) refers to postoperative elevation of cardiac troponin (cTn) levels caused by underlying ischemic mechanisms (i.e., coronary artery supply-demand imbalance or atherosclerotic thrombosis) without obvious non-ischemic causes (such as pulmonary embolism), with at least one cTn concentration exceeding the 99th percentile of the test reference …
Chemoradiotherapy Followed by Planned Surgery or by Surveillance and Surgery Only When Needed for Oesophageal Cancer
NEEDS is a pragmatic open-label, randomised, controlled, phase III, multicenter trial with non-inferiority design with regard to the first co-primary endpoint overall survival and superiority for the experimental intervention definitive chemoradiotherapy. A second co-primary endpoint is global health related quality of life (HRQOL) one year after randomisation. A third co-primary …
PICO Above Incisions After Vascular Surgery
The wound infection rate in the groin after vascular surgery has been denoted to be high since the wound surveillance register started in 2005. The current wound infection rate based on a validation study was 22.9% (24/105 patients with groin incision(s) between 1 March to 30 June in 2012). This …
French Achilles Tendon Surgery Cohort Study
This 20-year prospective cohort study monitors patients following Achilles tendon repair to assess re-rupture rates, long-term functional outcomes, return-to-sport rates, and procedure-related complications. The aim is to better understand the long-term durability and clinical effectiveness of Achilles tendon repair techniques to optimize patient outcomes.
Implementing Surgery School Prehabilitation Using Telehealth
The physiological challenge of major surgery has been likened to running a marathon. In both cases, preparation is critical. Yet, many patients undergo major surgery without understanding the potential consequences. The STTARRS trial aims to test the effect of an education program delivered via telehealth in people preparing for lung …
Delayed Gastric Emptying After Pancreatic Surgery
Delayed gastric emptying (DGE) is a common complication of pancreatic surgery. Once it occurs, it often affects the patient's postoperative quality of life and may even delay subsequent necessary treatments, such as adjuvant chemotherapy. Therefore, this project aims to retrospectively collect basic data, preoperative and postoperative blood tests (blood cell …
Prospective Comparative Study Evaluating the Early Complications of Robot-assisted Radical Prostatectomy Performed as an Outpatient Versus an Inpatient Procedure.
The goal of this clinical trial is to demonstrate that outpatient management for robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy is not inferior to inpatient management in terms of the occurrence of early post-operative complications. Researchers will compare outpatient robot-assisted radical prostatectomy to inpatient procedure. Participants will: Visit the clinic after the operation once …
Pre- vs. Postoperative Thromboprophylaxis in Pancreatic Surgery
Thromboprophylaxis for pancreatic surgery can be commenced either preoperatively or postoperatively. Despite a clear trade-off between thrombosis and bleeding in pancreatic surgery patients, there is no international consensus when thrombosis prophylaxis should be commenced in patients undergoing pancreatic surgery. There are no prospective randomized trials in this field, and current …
Collecting Outcomes and Managing Pain After Surgery
The primary aim of this study is to measure pain and psychosocial patient reported outcomes, objective functionality, and actual daily at home opioid usage in orthopedic patients. The study's goal following the data collection is to predict which patients are at high risk for chronic opioid use.
