Post-market Surveillance Study to Evaluate the Quality of Life and the Safety and Effectiveness of the TIGR® Matrix After Reconstructive Breast Surgery
The goal of this observational study is to evaluate the quality of life of participants who have undergone implant-based breast surgery. This will be done using the BREAST-Q questionnaire. The study also aims to demonstrate that the fully resorbable TIGR® Matrix is safe and effective.
Testing the Combination of the Anticancer Drug Durvalumab With Chemotherapy (Gemcitabine and Cisplatin) at Improving Outcomes for High-Risk Resectable Liver Cancer Before Surgery
This phase II trial tests how well giving durvalumab with standard chemotherapy, gemcitabine and cisplatin, before surgery works in treating patients with high risk liver cancer (cholangiocarcinoma) that can be removed by surgery (resectable). Durvalumab is a monoclonal antibody that may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow …
Using Plasma Human Papillomavirus (HPV)-Related Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA) and Ribonucleic Acid (RNA) to Follow Response of Cervical Cancer to Surgery, Radiation, and Chemotherapy
The goal of this study is to test two commercially available technologies for their ability to detect treatment response in patients with cervical cancer following surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy: one based on polymerase chain reaction (PCR; NavDx) and the other on branched DNA (Quantivirus HPV \[DNA\]). A 9-month feasibility study …
Predictive Factors for Functional and Quality of Life Decline in Patients >65 Years With a Gastrointestinal Tract Cancer Diagnosis Taken to Curative Resectable Surgery
Introduction: Human life expectancy has increased significantly, leading to a transformation in the global demographic structure. Cancer is considerably more common among older adults compared to younger populations, as age is one of the main risk factors for its development. In fact, most solid tumors are considered age-related diseases. For …
A Study on the Improvement of Postoperative Symptoms and Survival Benefits of Modified Bufei Decoction in Elderly Patients With Lung Cancer Undergoing Radical Surgery
This is a randomized double-blind placebo-controlled phase II clinical study that included patients with symptoms such as cough, shortness of breath, and fatigue after lung cancer resection surgery. They were given orally modified Bufei Tang granules twice a day for 28 days, with one packet taken orally with water. Using …
Randomized, Single-blind Pilot Study Assessing the Effect of Cutaneous RESonance Stimulation SYMPAthetic and Parasympathetic Tone and Anxiety in Patients Admitted for Cardiac Surgery
Anxiety is a natural response to stress which peaks just before the surgery procedure. High levels of anxiety can increase postoperative pain and complications. Medicated anxiolysis is no longer recommended, in the absence of proven efficacy. Other interventions to prevent anxiety are required. The autonomic nervous system (ANS), both sympathetic …
Effect of Perioperative High-dose Transdermal Nicotine Patch on Pain Sensitivity Among Male Abstinent Tobacco Smokers Undergoing Thoracic Surgery: A Randomized Controlled Pilot Study
Globally, approximately 230 million adults undergo surgical procedures each year, with around 30% of patients maintaining smoking habits prior to surgery. Extensive clinical research has confirmed that tobacco exposure is a significant independent risk factor for perioperative complications. Epidemiological data indicate that long-term smokers experience a significantly higher all-cause mortality …
A Clinical Trial on the Use of Lidocaine Infusion During Surgery for Pediatric Upper Extremity Fractures and Its Impact on Total Perioperative Opioid Requirements
This study is a prospective, randomized, double-blind clinical trial evaluating whether intraoperative intravenous lidocaine infusion (IVLI) reduces opioid requirements and improves postoperative pain control in children undergoing surgical fixation of upper extremity long bone fractures under general anesthesia. Ninety pediatric patients, ages 3-18 will be enrolled and randomized 1:1 to …
Effectiveness of Amniotic Membrane Combined With Secretome as an Adjunct to Carpal Tunnel Release Surgery: Evaluation Using the Boston Carpal Tunnel Questionnaire and Electromyography
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS) is a compressive neuropathy caused by chronic compression of the median nerve within the carpal tunnel, resulting in pain, numbness, tingling, and impaired hand function. This study is a randomized controlled trial with a pre- and post-intervention experimental design to evaluate the effectiveness of adjunctive amniotic …
IMPact of Donor Heart Function on Recipient Outcomes - a prospectiVE Study to Increase the Utilization of Donor HEARTs
Severe heart failure is a diagnosis with a very poor prognosis. Heart transplantation is the best treatment for terminal heart failure but this type of treatment is limited by the number of available organs. About 20-25% of possible donor hearts are not considered for transplantation because they have some form …
