'POStoperative INTELLiVENT-adaptive support VEntilation in cardiac surgery patients II (POSITiVE II) is an investigator-initiated, international, multicenter, parallel, randomized clinical trial in patients after cardiac surgery.
Intraoperative cell salvage is commonly used in cardiac surgery to reduce the administration of allogeneic red blood cells and thus improve the outcome for the patient. When processing the salvaged blood, however, a large part of the patient's plasma is washed out. This is a disadvantage with regard to an …
The PROPOSE RCT is a two-arm randomized controlled trial that will be conducted to test the efficacy of a personalized, multidisciplinary pre-operative prehabilitation program (preventive prehabilitation) to reduce serious complications and facilitate recovery after surgery in high-risk patients. The multimodal prehabilitation program is a preoperative intervention that includes exercise training, …
To evaluate the effectiveness of this homework on stone clearance rates after retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS) by instructing the patient in the home environment and suggesting percussion and movement/position changes to assist in spontaneous stone passage.
The objective of this prospective observational cohort study is to evaluate the validity, reliability, and responsiveness of the Turkish version of the Quality of Recovery-15 (QoR-15T) scale in adult patients undergoing elective cardiac surgery. While the QoR-15T has been validated for general surgery in Turkey, its performance remains to be …
Analgesic management in thoracic surgery is a challenge for the anesthesiologist, as thoracotomy is one of the surgical procedures with the most intense postoperative pain, which can impact respiratory function and the patient's subsequent recovery. Epidural analgesia is the gold standard. When epidural catheter placement is not possible, erector spinae …

Hypothermic circulatory arrest is an important surgical technique, allowing complex aortic surgeries to be performed safely. Hypothermic circulatory arrest provides protection to cerebral and visceral organs, but may result in longer cardiopulmonary bypass times during surgery, increased risks of bleeding, inflammation, and neuronal injury. To manage these consequences, a trend …
Patients who are being scheduled for an operative procedure with an inpatient postoperative stay are eligible for this study.
