The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effects of a surgical and a non-surgical treatment method in patients with osteoarthritis in the proximal interphalangeal (PIP) joint. The main questions it aims to answer are: Are the treatments effective? Is the surgical treatment more effective than the non-surgical …
Title: Assessing the Impact of Additional Serratus Anterior Block on Postoperative Pain After Rhomboid Intercostal Block in VATS Patients Purpose: This randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate whether the addition of a Serratus Anterior Plane Block (SAPB) to the standard Rhomboid Intercostal Block (RIB) improves postoperative pain management in patients …
This project aims to optimize the methodology to elicite transcranial motor evoked potentials in intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring of brain surgery. It includes accelerometer measurements and microscope video image to determine movement of the surgical field, making possible minimization of movement during brain stimulation.
Various options for reconstruction alternatives to LD are described, as are the possible early and late side effects of LD harvesting. Currently, the choice of whether or not to resort to LD harvesting to repair the defect is based on the experience and preference of the specific working group. The …
20 million patients have surgery in the United States every year, with approximately 1 million of those patients requiring life-saving blood transfusion. Presurgical preparation for transfusion is important to allow for safe and timely transfusion during surgery; however, excessive preparation is unfortunately common, costly, and contributes to blood waste. This …
Assessing the clinical and organisational impact of a home-based post-operative monitoring strategy incorporating the MultiSense® device involving 80 patients aged 65 years and over who have undergone major surgery.
Head and neck cancers have one of the highest recurrence rates among solid malignancies, and recurrence is strongly correlated with overall survival. Reducing recurrence rates depends, in part, on the surgeon's ability to accurately re-resect areas of positive or close margins during surgery. Currently, margin status is communicated primarily through …
To evaluate whether continuous SpO₂ monitoring during transfer between the operating room and the Post-Anesthesia Care Unit (PACU) reduces the incidence of desaturations
This is an unblinded, parallel group randomized controlled trial to evaluate bright green light as an adjunct therapy after surgery at UPMC Shadyside. The primary outcome measure will be pain intensity with secondary outcome measures including opioid requirements, sleep quality, mood, and overall post-operative recovery. Specific aims/hypotheses for this study …
The investigators will randomize adults having major non-cardiac inpatient surgery to blinded versus unblinded continuous postoperative vital sign monitoring (saturation, ventilation, and heart rate). The investigators will use a wearable, untethered, and battery-powered sensor (Masimo Radius PPG, Masimo, Irvine, CA) that wirelessly connects to a Masimo monitor and continuously records …
