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.
Urinary Catheter Self-Discontinuation After Urogynecology Surgery
The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to determine if removal of transurethral urinary catheters by patients at home is as safe as catheter removal in the office following urogynecologic surgery. Participants will be randomized to either standard catheter removal in the office or catheter self-removal at home.
Deep Brain Stimulation Surgery for Movement Disorders
Background Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is an approved surgery for certain movement disorders, like Parkinson's disease, that do not respond well to other treatments. DBS uses a battery-powered device called a neurostimulator (like a pacemaker) that is placed under the skin in the chest. It is used to stimulate the …
Bariatric Surgery and Modulation of Perceived Satiety
Bariatric surgery is the ideal therapeutic strategy for patients with severe obesity when lifestyle interventions have failed. 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 …
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, …
Prevena Spine for Use in Spine Surgery
A pilot, prospective, single-center study for the investigation of the use of Prevena Vacuum-Assisted Closure devices in patients undergoing spine surgery.
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 …
Zinc Oxide Versus Petrolatum Following Skin Surgery
Patients undergoing routine surgery in the Department of Dermatology for any indication on non-scalp skin and closed in linear fashion with scar greater than or equal to 4.5cm in length will be invited to participate in this split scar, head to head study comparing zinc oxide and petrolatum.

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 …
