Lipid Emulsion for Reversal of Spinal Anesthesia in Ambulatory Surgery
Ambulatory surgery places high demands on anesthetic technique. rapid onset and offset of anesthesia, rapid recovery of protective reflexes, mobility and micturition, are required. Since the inception of ambulatory surgery, the favored anesthetic technique has been general anesthesia with short-acting drugs. Concerns about the time to perform spinal anesthesia and …
Serratus Posterior Superior Plane Block for Postoperative Pain in Cardiac Surgery
The aim of this study is to investigate the efficacy of bilateral serratus posterior superior intercostal plane (SPSIP) block on postoperative acute pain and opioid consumption in patients undergoing on-pump open-heart surgery. Postoperative outcomes including pain scores, cumulative morphine use, quality of recovery, and opioid-related side effects will be evaluated …
Pilot Study Evaluating the Advantages of Sucrosomial® Iron Post-operative Supplementation vs Standard of Care After Cardiac Surgery
Primary objective: to evaluate the non-inferiority in terms of improvement of hemoglobin (Hg) levels within 30 days postoperatively between two proposed treatments. Secondary objective: to evaluate the financial costs associated with Sucrosomial® Iron treatment compared to Iron Sucrose (IV), while demonstrating non-inferiority in the improvement of hemoglobin levels, reduction in …
Prevention Atrial Fibrillation by BOTulinum Toxin Injections (BOTAF)
Over the past few years, research has focused on the prevention of atrial fibrillation (AF) after cardiac surgery, but highly effective interventions are still missing. Postoperative AF remains the most common complication after cardiac surgery, with an incidence of 10 to 50%. This complication is usually a transient condition that …
Post-operative Intravenous Iron to Treat Iron-deficiency Anemia in Patients Undergoing Cardiac Surgery
POAM is a multicenter, randomized, controlled, internal pilot trial, using a conventional, parallel group, two-armed design at 3 cardiac surgery centres in Canada. The study is designed to assess the feasibility of a future, definitive RCT investigating whether, in patients with chronic iron-deficiency anemia undergoing cardiac surgery, IV iron therapy …
A Study Protocol for Research Investigating How Geriatric Risk Assessment and Shared Decision-making Conversations Affect Treatment Decisions and Quality of Life in Patients Eligible for Open-heart Surgery.
The goal of this study is to determine whether intervention by the PRIME clinic influences cardiac treatment decisions, as well as patients quality of life and healthcare utilization. The main questions this study aims to answer are: Does PRIME consultation influence treatment recommendations? Does a personalized treatment plan for cardiac …
PFDD Versus PFDRT in Chiari Decompression Surgery
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a posterior fossa decompression and duraplasty with or without tonsil manipulation results in better patient outcomes with fewer complications and improved quality of life in those who have Chiari malformation type I and syringomyelia.
Cerebral Flow-metabolism Coupling During Adult Surgery
The brain is a highly active organ that requires a large blood flow to function properly. Normally, blood flow is tightly linked to the brain's energy demands. However, during surgery, anesthesia can affect this relationship in different ways. Some types of anesthesia can decrease blood flow to the brain, while …
Intermittent Fasting Versus Carbohydrate Drinks Before Surgery
The purpose of this study is to investigate whether intermittent fasting before surgery improves insulin resistance around the time of surgery, compared to carbohydrate drinks and standard fasting before surgery.
Enhanced Recovery After Surgery in Extremity Sarcoma
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the efficacy of implementing the enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) pathway in a prospective manner to patients undergoing surgical treatment for extremity sarcoma.
