Canadian hospitals continue to struggle with severe emergency department and hospital bed capacity shortages. Maximizing bed availability and minimizing emergency department and urgent-centre visits by providing patients with alternative options to care is an important part of the solution. Surgical patients with frailty are at high risk of requiring subsequent …
This phase III trial studies how well mitotane alone works compared to mitotane with cisplatin and etoposide when given after surgery in treating patients with adrenocortical cancer that has a high risk of coming back (recurrence). Cortisol can cause the growth of adrenocortical tumor cells. Antihormone therapy, such as mitotane, …
The goal of this observational study is to develop and pre-validate a machine learning algorithm to predict early recovery of mobility in patients undergoing hip or knee joint replacement surgery. The primary research question is: Can a machine learning model accurately classify patients with faster versus slower recovery of autonomous …
In older patients having surgery, postoperative delirium (an acute disturbance in awareness, attention, or cognition) is common and associated with short-term and long-term morbidity and mortality. The pathophysiology of postoperative delirium is multifactorial - but presumably includes inadequate brain perfusion during surgery caused by low intraoperative blood pressure. Therefore, the …
The outcome after spinal surgery is important and the evidence is critical to develop treatment. The purpose of this study is to make a prospective registry of database for further research.
A registry of individuals that visit the Obesity Clinic of the University Hospitals of Leuven will be established. The objective of this registry is to improve the knowledge about obesity, the treatment of obesity and its outcomes.
ADOPT-lung is an international, multicentre, open-label randomised phase III trial. Protocol treatment consists of 3-4 cycles of neoadjuvant durvalumab in combination with platinum-based doublet chemotherapy, followed by surgery. Patients with R0 and R1 only resection will be randomised to receive either adjuvant durvalumab for 12 cycles (experimental arm) or observation …
This multicenter prospective clinical study focuses on elderly patients with lung cancer. We will build a standardized clinical registry database, develop perioperative risk stratification and surgical early-warning models, optimize individualized surgical regimens, construct multidisciplinary perioperative comprehensive therapy, integrated Chinese-Western medicine full-cycle management and personalized postoperative rehabilitation systems, so as to …
With the title of "Long-Term Outcomes of endoscopic-assisted vs conventional breast-conserving surgery in breast cancer patients after neoadjuvant therapy: a randomized, multicenter, open label, non-inferiority trial", this study targets breast cancer patients after neoadjuvant therapy. A total of 1380 eligible patients, after screening with inclusion and exclusion criteria, will be …
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of two different doses of Atenativ, versus placebo, in restoring and maintaining heparin responsiveness in adult patients undergoing cardiac surgery necessitating cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB)
