Postoperative neurocognitive disorders (PND) are serious and common complications after surgery, especially in elderly patients. These disorders can affect cognitive functions for years, deteriorating quality of life and increasing hospital stays and medical costs. Diagnosing PND is challenging due to their varied manifestations, such as memory and attention problems, and …
Lower extremity revascularization combined with supervised exercise significantly improves walking performance compared to revascularization alone in people who have PAD without limb threatening ischemia. However, supervised exercise is inaccessible or burdensome for most PAD patients. Investigators hypothesize that home-based exercise combined with lower extremity revascularization will significantly improve walking performance …
The goal of this single-center prospective cohort study is to compare perioperative safety metrics and follow-up survival analyses in patients receiving Minimally Invasive Cardiac Surgery Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting(MICS-CABG) and Off-Pump Coronary Artery Bypass(OPCAB). The main question it aims to answer is: Is the bridge vessel patency rate of patients …
The opioid crisis continues to plague the United States. While great strides have been made nationwide to decrease overprescribing, improvements are still needed to appropriately educate patients on the safe and responsible use, storage and disposal of opioids. Pain after surgery is often treated with opioid medications. Opioid medications can …
Obesity is a growing epidemic throughout the world and is followed by increasing incidence of type 2 diabetes that accounts for 90-95% of all cases of diabetes. Weight loss is a major objective, although difficult to achieve with medical treatments. Many recent studies demonstrated that bariatric surgery has the potency …
This study aims to evaluate the effects of combined reflexology and cold application on pain, anxiety, and physiological parameters in patients undergoing chest tube removal (CTR) after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery. Chest tube removal is an invasive procedure that often causes significant pain and anxiety, which can negatively …
Effective postoperative pain management is essential for enhanced recovery after laparoscopic colorectal surgery. This randomized, controlled, double-blind trial will compare conventional postoperative analgesia (intravenous medications plus surgical wound infiltration) with a locoregional strategy combining a peripheral autonomic block (inferior mesenteric and superior hypogastric plexuses) and a transversus abdominis plane (TAP) …
The purpose of this study is to learn about the effects of study medicine (PF-08634404) when given alone or with another antibody (ipilimumab) for the treatment of a type of liver cancer called hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) that is either locally advanced (spread to nearby tissues) or has spread to other …
Environmental endocrine disruptors (EDCs) represent a major problem for human health.Some PEEs can accumulate in the fatty tissue of the human body thanks to their lipophilic nature, and are known as persistent organic pollutants (POPs). To assess the benefit of cholestyramine treatment on POPs blood levels in obese patients of …
The ALOFT Pilot Trial will evaluate three pragmatic elements (recruitment, adherence, and follow-up) of neuraxial versus general anesthesia for lower limb revascularization surgery that are necessary to support a successful, large-scale evaluation. We will concurrently use implementation science methodology to further refine processes for the larger trial. The future full …
