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 …
Neoadjuvant Gemcitabine and Cisplatin in Combination With Perioperative Pembrolizumab Versus Upfront Surgery for Patients With Primary Resectable and Borderline Resectable Perihilar and Distal Cholangiocarcinoma
Extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (eCCA) is a rare and aggressive cancer with poor prognosis. ECCA can be further subcategorised in perihilar and distal cholangiocarcinoma (pCCA and dCCA). Surgical resection is the only potential cure, but only one-third of patients are eligible. Even among those deemed resectable, a significant portion (≈30%) experience disease …
Evaluation of Pupillometry as a Predictor of Pain Intensity Upon Withdrawal of Sedation in the Postoperative Period Following Cardiac Surgery: A Prospective Cohort Study
Postoperative pain is a significant issue following surgery, and pain that is either inadequately treated or, conversely, overtreated can increase morbidity. For example, severe chest pain following cardiac or pulmonary surgery impairs the patient's respiratory rehabilitation, which can lead to fluid retention and, consequently, pneumonia. Conversely, overtreatment through excessive use …
Prospective Repeated-Measures Study of Popliteal Vein Diameter During the First 48 Hours After Commercial Air Travel to Bogota for a Plastic Surgery Intervention
This prospective repeated-measures study will evaluate how long popliteal vein dilation persists after international commercial air travel to Bogota. Adult medical travelers will undergo standardized bilateral popliteal vein ultrasound within 24 hours before departure, within 2 hours after arrival, and at 24 and 48 hours after arrival, all before surgery. …
Usefulness of Thromboelastography as a Predictor of Prognosis in Patients Undergoing Surgery for Glial Tumors and of the Risk of Postoperative Thromboembolic Disease (GliTEM)
The objective of our study is to investigate the clinical significance of thromboelastometric values in the development of thrombotic events and survival in patients with glial tumors, to reduce thromboembolic complications and optimize oncological treatment.
A Single-Arm, Open-Label, Prospective Study Evaluating the Safety, Tolerability, and Immunogenicity of the NeoOVSV Vaccine in Patients With Ovarian Cancer After Surgery
This is a Phase I, single-arm, open-label, prospective, non-randomized, single-center dose-escalation study. The study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and preliminary activity of the NeoOVSV mRNA-lipid nanoparticle vaccine in patients with stage II/III ovarian cancer after surgery, in combination with standard adjuvant chemotherapy and a PD-1 antibody.
A Single-Arm, Open-Label, Prospective Study Evaluating the Safety, Tolerability, and Immunogenicity of the NeoOVIV Vaccine in Patients With Ovarian Cancer After Surgery
This is a Phase I, single-arm, open-label, dose-escalation study in patients with stage II or III ovarian cancer after surgery. The study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, immune response, and preliminary clinical activity of NeoOVIV, a personalized mRNA-lipid nanoparticle vaccine, when given with standard adjuvant chemotherapy and a PD-1 antibody.
