Cognitive Outcomes After Dexmedetomidine Sedation in Cardiac Surgery Patients
Anesthesia is a drug induced, reversible, comatose state that facilitates surgery and it is widely assumed that cognition returns to baseline after anesthetics have been eliminated. However, many patients have persistent memory impairment for weeks to months after surgery. Cardiac surgery appears to carry the highest risk of postoperative cognitive …
ARTIST: Aortic Regurgitation Trial Investigating Surgery Versus Trilogy™
To demonstrate non-inferiority of the Trilogy Transcatheter Heart Valve (THV) System compared with surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) for treatment of subjects with clinically significant native aortic regurgitation (AR)
Extended Perioperative Administration of Fibrinolysis Inhibitors After Cardiac Surgery
PRIORITY is a pragmatic, multi-center, cluster crossover trial that aims to evaluate whether implementing a policy of routine extended (intraoperative and 4 hour after transfer to ICU) use of fibrinolysis inhibitors leads to a decrease in post-operative blood transfusion compared to a policy that only involves intraoperative use.
Dexmedetomidine in Reducing Postoperative Delirium in Cardiac Surgery Patients
Delirium is a common consequence of cardiac surgery and associates with poor outcomes. Multiple causes can trigger delirium occurence, and it has been hypothesised that sleep disturbances can be one of them. Dexmedetomidine may be effective in reducing delirium. The aim of this study was to demonstrate preoperative dexmedetomidine nasal …
Dexamethasone Palmitate for PONV After Minimally Invasive Endoscopic Surgery
Dexamethasone is almost one of the most commonly used drugs for postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) prevention. However, PONV is still a complex problem to be solved; for example, even with preoperative dexamethasone administration, 14.0-26.3% of patients undergoing minimally invasive endoscopic procedures still experience PONV within 24 hours postoperatively. Compared …
Tranexamic Acid for Reduction of Transfusion in Abdominal Surgery
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if the administration of tranexamic acid can reduce the necessity of blood transfusions in adult patients undergoing major abdominal surgery. . It will also inform about safety of tranexamic acid in this setting. The main question it aims to answer is: …
Advanced Goal-Directed Impedancemetry Strategy for Lung Resection Surgery
High-risk patients scheduled for lung resection surgery are increasing and theoretically eligible to perioperative individualized goal-directed fluid therapy (GDFT). However, thoracic surgery is challenging for intraoperative stroke volume (SV) and/or cardiac output monitoring because it requires lateral positioning, one-lung ventilation, and open-chest condition. Pulse contour analysis and esophageal Doppler have …
The Efficacy of Primary Total Mesorectal Excision (TME) Surgery Versus Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy Combined With TME Surgery in Low-risk Locally Advanced Rectal Cancer
Comparative analysis of the clinical efficacy between primary Total Mesorectal Excision (TME) surgery and neoadjuvant chemotherapy combined with TME surgery for low-risk locally advanced rectal cancer. Randomly enrolling eligible patients into either the control group receiving neoadjuvant chemotherapy combined with TME surgery or the experimental group receiving primary TME surgery, …
Pip Care to Improve Surgical Patient Outcomes
Pip Care is developing a personalized, interactive surgical journey platform with a live health coach that works directly with health systems to optimize the perioperative care process. Our Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA)-compliant platform, Pip, can be integrated into any electronic medical record (EMR), thus alleviating the administrative …
Interventions for Silent Brain Infarction and Perioperative Neurocognitive Dysfunction in Cardiovascular Surgery
the purpose of the study is to investigate whether a combined anesthetic targets bundle, known as the NeuroFirst strategy, focused on neurological protection, can reduce the incidence of silent brain infarction (SBI) and perioperative neurocognitive disorders (PND) in patients undergoing cardiac surgery. Additionally, the trial will assess the safety of …
