The goal of this study is to assess the incidence of the composite of thrombotic events (TEs) and thromboembolic events (TEEs) in patients with congenital antithrombin deficiency under when they receive Atenativ for surgical procedures or parturition.
Acute renal injury (AKI) is a common complication after cardiac surgery and is associated with worse outcomes. It is now realized that intraoperative hypotension is an important risk factor for the development of AKI. In a recent randomized controlled trial of patients undergoing major noncardiac surgery, intraoperative individualized blood-pressure management …
The long-term goal of this project is to utilize very high-speed optical coherence tomography (OCT) technology to guide surgical treatments of corneal diseases. OCT is well known for its exquisite resolution, but until recently it has not had sufficient speed to capture the shape of the cornea because of eye …
The current practice to avoid incisional hernia, one of the most frequent complications following abdominal surgery, is to minimize core muscle activity in the postoperative phase. However, there is no evidence to support the association of core muscle activity and increased incidence of incisional hernia. On the contrary, it is …
Robotic minimally invasive surgery has been rapidly adopted for a wide variety of surgical procedures in adult patients across a broad spectrum of surgical specialties. This has occurred despite the high costs and uncertain benefits of surgical robots. In contrast, Children's Hospitals and pediatric surgical disciplines have been much slower …
Epidemiological surveillance is one of the eight core components of the World Health Organization Infection Prevention and Control Programmes. These include surveillance programmes for surgical site infection (SSI). At present, for SSI surveillance, infection control teams perform a manual time-consuming work, which could make a transition to automated surveillance leveraging …
The number of emergencies's visits (22 million visits in 2019 in France), the organization of emergencies and the sustainability of the current health system are threatened. In the CHUAP adult emergency department, 60,000 visits were recorded in 2022. Unlike medical emergencies which have structured their care and research activities (heart, …
The effect of noradrenaline infusion versus standard blood pressure management on perioperative HYPotension in NOn-caRdiac surgery. The study aims to determine whether perioperative noradrenaline infusion is superior to standard blood pressure management for the occurrence of perioperative hypotension.
Protection of the recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) is a key focus and difficulty in thyroid surgery. Unilateral RLN injury can lead to ipsilateral vocal cord paralysis, resulting in hoarseness in patients postoperatively. Bilateral RLN injury, however, may cause bilateral vocal cord paralysis, leading to dyspnea and even asphyxiation; in severe …
The rate of complications (unexpected situations) after retrograde intrarenal surgery is reported to be 9-25%, and the majority of these are postoperative infections. Surgery must be performed under sterile (microbial-free) urine culture to prevent these complications. There are guideline recommendations regarding sterile urine culture reporting, but it is not clear …
