Angiopoietin and Adverse Outcomes in Cardiac Surgery
Cardiac surgery and cardiopulmonary bypass can lead to systemic organ failure trough excess inflammation and endothelial injury. The angiopoietin family represented by angiopoietin 1 and 2 can reflect endothelial injury by a decrease in angiopoietin 1 and an increase in angiopoietin 2. The investigators hypothesized that angiopoietin dysregulation could reflect …
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.
Wound Closure Techniques in Primary Spine Surgery
The Researchers are trying to determine if there is a difference in blood flow around a wound site when comparing three different types of wound closure techniques.
Follow-up of Bariatric Surgery by Teleconsultations
An organised follow-up is required after bariatric surgery, but 50% of patients are lost to follow-up after 2 years. To design a large randomized clinical trial (RCT) comparing teleevaluations and teleconsultations to classical follow, aiming to prove that the quality of the follow-up is maintained and the patient-experience is improved, …

Unfortunately, weight recovery after surgery affects one third of patients and is due to several factors, such as recovery of incorrect eating behaviour, reduction of physical activity or hormonal factors. Dilation of gastro-jejunal …
Propofol vs Sevo for Paediatric Tumor Surgery
Background Retrospective studies and meta-analyses have shown a reduction in 5-year survival following inhalational based compared to propofol based total intravenous (TIVA) anaesthesia for cancer surgery. To date there have been no prospective trials published which evaluate the effect of anaesthetic technique on circulating tumour cells (CTC), oxidative stress, and …
Neurocognitive Disorders After Major Surgery in Elderly
The objective of the study is to investigate, in patients aged 70 years and over undergoing major non-cardiac surgery, the effect of electroencephalic (EEG)-guided anesthesia on postoperative neurocognitive disorders when controlling for intraoperative nociception, personalized blood pressure targets and using full information provided by the processed EEG monitor (including burst …

Robotic Assisted Surgery In Total Knee Replacement
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare robotic arm assisted surgery with manual surgery in patients operated with knee replacement. The main aim of the study is to compare changes in joint awareness (measured by the Forgotten Joint Score. Participants who are listed for knee arthroplasty are randomised …
Vertebral Bone Marrow Clot for Spinal Surgery
Spinal fusion (SF) is a common orthopedic procedure to treat spinal diseases. Apart from fixation systems, the procedure requires bone grafting to further improve SF. Cell-based therapies as vertebral bone marrow aspirate (vBMA) with bone allograft were developed as alternative to bone autograft in SF. However, vBMA use is limited …
