MiECC Versus Conventional Cardiopulmonary Bypass in Cardiac Surgery (MiECS)
MiECS is one of the largest multicentre randomised controlled trials on extracorporeal circulation conducted under the auspices of Minimal Invasive Extracorporeal Technologies International Society (MiECTiS). It is designed to ultimately address the emerging effectiveness of MiECC systems in the light of modern perfusion practice worldwide. The primary hypothesis is that …
Perioperative Dexmedetomidine and Long-term Survival After Cancer Surgery
Along with aging population, cancer incidence and mortality are increasing. However, despite advances in oncology and surgery, long-term survival of cancer patients is far from optimal. Dexmedetomidine is a highly selective alpha 2 adrenergic receptor agonist with sedative, analgesic, and anxiolytic effects. Studies showed that perioperative use of dexmedetomidine reduces …
Goal-directed vs. Empirical Tranexamic Acid Administrationin Cardiovascular Surgery
The present study is a multi-center randomized prospective placebo-controlled non-inferiority trial. The study's primary objective is to compare the amounts of postoperative bleeding using two different TXA administration strategies: empirical TXA administration vs. viscoelastic test-based goal-directed TXA administration in cardiovascular surgery. The secondary objectives include comparing the incidents of hyper-fibrinolysis, …
Evaluation of Post-PACU Pain Management in Pediatric Surgery
This study aims to assess the differences in overall pain severity, pain management, and satisfaction during recovery period between two groups of children who either receive or do not receive additional education related to expectation and management of postoperative pain.
Genetic Susceptibility to Predict Weight Loss After Bariatric Surgery
Obesity is a complex chronic disease, in which both genetic and environmental factors are involved, that shows a great heterogeneity in the response to different weight loss programs. Identifying patients as responder or no responder to the different obesity treatment options is a concept of great interest, both due to …
The Effect of Intrawound Vancomycin Powder in Spine Surgery
Problem: Postoperative wound infection following various spinal surgeries is a serious complication. The incidence of post-surgical wounds in spine surgery is high, and various researchers have reported different infection rates. In addition, increased healthcare costs, prolonged lengths of stay in hospital, and reduced quality of life as a result of …
Web-based International Register of Emergency Surgery and Trauma
The WIRES-T project (Web-based International Registry of Emergency General Surgery and Trauma) has been set up to allow to all the EGS (Emergency General Surgery) and Trauma surgeons to register their activity and to obtain a worldwide register of traumatic and non traumatic surgical emergencies. This will give the opportunity …
Impact of Remimazolam on Prognosis After Bladder Cancer Surgery
Bladder cancer is one of the most common genitourinary cancers. Transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT) is the standard therapy for nonmuscle invasive bladder cancer. However, patients after TURBT are at risk for recurrence and progression. Benzodiazepines are proved to inhibit proliferation of multiple types of cancer cells in vitro. …
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 …
Caprini Score in Venous Surgery: a Prospective Cohort Study
The aim of the study is to make a validation of Caprini score in patients undergoing varicose veins surgery, especially endovascular procedures (endovascular laser treatment - EVLT, radiofrequency ablation - RFA, ultrasound-guided foam sclerotherapy - USFS) and to identify patients with elevated risk of postoperative venous thromboembolism (VTE) who will …
