Intravenous Acetaminophen After Cardiac Surgery - Definitive Study
Double blind, double dummy trial of the use of IV acetaminophen versus oral acetaminophen for the prevention of delirium after cardiac surgery. The underlying hypothesis is that better pain control and less use of narcotics will lead to a lower incidence of delirium from day 1 to 7 following cardiac …
Sore Throat After Open Neck Elective Surgery
This randomized, double-blind clinical trial aims to evaluate the effectiveness of two medications-hydrocortisone ointment and lidocaine solution-applied to the endotracheal tube in reducing postoperative throat pain, hoarseness, and cough following thyroid or parathyroid surgery with neuromonitoring. A total of 764 adult patients undergoing elective neck surgery at Saint-Petersburg State University …
Postoperative Delirium in Patients Undergoing Cardiac Surgery
Establish a follow-up database for postoperative delirium in cardiac surgery patients, adopt a bidirectional cohort design to simultaneously analyze the associations between "preoperative exposure factors and postoperative delirium incidence" and "postoperative delirium and long-term adverse outcomes", and clarify the predictive factors and prognostic impacts of postoperative delirium.
Elderly Patients Undergoing Surgery During Perioperative Period
The elderly patients have poorer overall conditions and have lower tolerance to trauma, anesthesia, and surgery. Therefore, the incidence of postoperative complications is relatively higher. In non-cardiac surgeries, approximately 20% of elderly patients experience postoperative complications, and the incidence of postoperative delirium (POD) is 23.8%. This may lead to prolonged …
Evaluation of the Utility of Preanestes@s, a Web Based Application for Preoperative Assessment
In this prospective two-arm study, the investigators will evaluate the incidence of suboptimal preoperative assessments when the participants are evaluated through a web based application (Preanestes@s) versus the traditional outpatient interview.
Function Integrity of Neck Anatomy in Thyroid Surgery
Recent trends in the management of patients with low-risk papillary thyroid carcinoma who have a nonsuspicious or cytologically benign contralateral nodule call into question the need for routine total thyroidectomy. Although the lobectomy for the unilateral thyroid cancer with contralateral benign nodules is sufficient treatment, some of the patients might …
Treatment in Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm: Surgery vs Surveillance
The ascending aorta conducts blood from the heart to the rest of the body. The ascending aorta can become enlarged, and the risk of tearing and rupturing becomes higher with larger aorta. When the ascending aorta tears or ruptures, the risk dying is high even if surgery is done as …
Surgery Versus Radiotherapy for Locally Advanced Prostate Cancer
This prospective, open randomized phase III surgical trial seeks to study whether radical prostatectomy (with or without the combination of external radiation) improves prostate-cancer specific survival in comparison with primary radiation treatment and hormonal treatment among patients diagnosed with locally advanced (T3) prostate cancer. Untreated or conservatively treated locally advanced …
Intermediate Risk Cervical Cancer: Radical Surgery +/- Adjuvant Radiotherapy
The objective of the trial is to evaluate if adjuvant (chemo)radiation is associated with a disease-free survival benefit after radical surgery in patients with intermediate risk cervical cancer. The primary endpoint of the study is the disease-free survival from the day of randomisation. A total of 514 patients are required …
Clinical Trial of Approaches to Prostate Cancer Surgery
This is a prospective, randomized controlled trial to compare cancer control and health-related quality of life following pelvic fascia-sparing radical prostatectomy versus standard radical prostatectomy. The investigators hypothesize that pelvic fascia-sparing radical prostatectomy will have similar cancer control (primary outcome) and sexual function outcomes; and significantly better urinary function, penile …
