Avoiding Risks of Thrombosis and bleeding in Surgery (ARTS) trial is a pragmatic, international, multicenter, randomized controlled open label trial comparing a direct oral anticoagulant (DOAC) - oral factor Xa inhibitor apixaban - to no anticoagulant among 5,436 patients undergoing abdominal or pelvic surgery at sufficiently similar (and not high) …
The purpose of the PAUSE-Virtual Study is to show that by changing pre-surgery visits with patients taking a blood thinner (direct oral anticoagulant (apixaban, dabigatran, edoxaban, rivaroxaban or warfarin) when the participant requires elective surgery, using a standard, in-person proven approach, to a virtual visit, either telephone or video conference, …
The goal of this clinical trial (Balanced-2 study) is to compare light to deep general anesthesia using widely available brain monitors, to see if 'light' anesthesia could reduce rates of delirium, cognitive decline, and disability in older adults undergoing major surgery. Delirium is the most common serious surgical complication, occurring …
This \[Study Type: Clinical Trial\] aims to \[Primary Objective: evaluate the long-term efficacy and safety of robotic gastrectomy for locally advanced gastric cancer\] in \[Participant Population: patients with locally advanced gastric cancer, aged \>18 years and \<75 years\]. The primary questions it seeks to answer are: Is the 3-year disease-free …
Cancer of the lowermost part of the intestine (the rectum) is a common disease and both this disease and its treatment can have major impact on patients. Unless treated early, the disease can progress, spread to other parts of the body and ultimately cause death. Treatment often involves radical surgery, …
This study aims to elucidate whether there is a difference in long-term prognosis between laparoscopic surgery and open surgery in colon cancer patients with visceral obesity.
This is a Phase III, multicenter, open-label, randomized controlled trial. The study aims to compare organ preservation versus esophagectomy in patients with locally advanced, resectable thoracic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) who achieve a complete or partial clinical response (cCR/cPR) following neoadjuvant immunochemotherapy.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if a technique called remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) helps protect organs during emergency surgery for acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD). The main questions it aims to answer are: Does RIPC reduce the risk of major complications after surgery, such as …
Tracheal intubation in paediatric patients is a high-risk procedure in which failure to achieve successful intubation on the first attempt is associated with an increased risk of complications, including hypoxaemia and airway trauma. Videolaryngoscopes have been increasingly adopted in clinical practice because they improve glottic visualisation; however, evidence of their …
The purpose of this study is to learn more about a tool called Transit-Time Flow Measurement (TTFM). TTFM uses sound waves during surgery to check how well blood is flowing through blood vessels. This helps doctors see if the blood flow is good during coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), which …
