Bridging the Gap: Educating Patients on Social Determinants of Health to Improve Epilepsy Surgery Access and Outcomes
The goal of this study is to identify the needs and barriers to accessing and undergoing epilepsy surgery for patients with epilepsy and then to pilot an educational program regarding the social determinants of health and how they can influence surgical rates and epilepsy outcomes. For the first part, patients …
Minimum Effective Volume of Bupivacaine for Serratus Posterior Superior Intercostal Plane Block in Video-Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery
This study aims to determine the minimum effective volume of bupivacaine required for the serratus posterior superior intercostal plane (SPSIP) block in patients undergoing video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS). The SPSIP block is an ultrasound-guided regional anesthesia technique used to provide postoperative pain relief after thoracic surgery. Using a stepwise dose-adjustment …
Application of a Clinical Decision Support System to Reduce Mechanical Ventilation Duration After Cardiac Surgery in Children
The goal of this study is to evaluate the impact of a clinical decision support system (CDSS) in children receiving mechanical ventilation (MV) after surgery for congenital heart disease (CHD). The main question it aims to answer is: -What is the impact of a CDSS designed to facilitate weaning and …
Respiratory Muscle Training Before Surgery in Preventing Lung Complications in Patients With Stage I-IIIB Lung Cancer
This phase II trial studies how well respiratory muscle training before surgery works in preventing lung complications after surgery in patients with stage I-IIIB lung cancer. Patients with lung cancer who choose to undergo surgical resection often have complications after surgery such as pneumonia, unplanned intubations, difficulty breathing and reduced …
ARISCAT, ASA and LAS VEGAS Risk Scores and the Incidence of Postoperative Pulmonary Complications in Thoracic Surgery
Postoperative pulmonary complications (PPC) are among the main complications after the anesthetic-surgical procedure. It can be said that thoracic surgery results in impaired respiratory function in the postoperatively, due to the decrease in lung volumes and capacities (the vital capacity decreases by approximately 50-60% and functional residual capacity decreases by …
The Effect of Adding an IPACK Block to the Adductor Canal Block on Total Knee Arthroplasty Surgery
Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is a frequently performed major orthopedic surgery, where most patients experience severe postoperative pain. Pain-related delays in patient mobilization can lead to thromboembolism, deep vein thrombosis, surgical site infection, and increased risk of hospital-acquired infections due to prolonged hospital stay. Optimal postoperative knee analgesia is crucial …
A Prospective Cohort Study on Visual Function and Psychological Conditions Before and After Surgery for Congenital Ptosis
The goal of this observational study is to learn about the 6-month effects of Levator Resection combined with Fascial Sheath Suspension surgery in patients who undergo this procedure to treat congenital ptosis. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does this combined surgery improve best-corrected visual acuity, stereopsis, and …
Comparing the Postoperative Analgesic Efficacy of Anterior Iliac Block and Ilioinguinal-iliohypogastric Block in Inguinal Hernia Surgery
The primary aim of this study is to compare two postoperative analgesia techniques used in patients undergoing inguinal hernia surgery-(1) the anterior iliac block and (2) the ilioinguinal/iliohypogastric block-in terms of postoperative analgesia duration and patient satisfaction. Effective postoperative analgesia in inguinal hernia surgery is crucial for improving patient comfort …
Ultrasound-Guided Erector Spinae Plane Block Versus Thoracoscopically-Guided Intercostal Nerve Block in Video-Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery
Effective postoperative pain management is essential after thoracic surgery. Insufficient pain control may impair breathing and coughing, increasing the risk of pulmonary complications such as collapsed lungs (atelectasis) or pneumonia. Although minimally invasive lung surgery (video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery, VATS) is less painful than open surgery, people can still have significant …
Adding a Live Biotherapeutic Product (CBM588) to Pembrolizumab for the Treatment of Renal Cell Cancer After Surgery
This phase II trial compares the effect of adding a Live Biotherapeutic Product called CBM588 to pembrolizumab versus pembrolizumab alone in preventing return of disease (recurrence) after surgery for patients with renal cell cancer. Pembrolizumab is an immune checkpoint inhibitor. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies such as pembrolizumab may help the …
