Diagnosis of Postoperative Atrial Fibrillation by a Smartwatch
The incidence of postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) after on-pump cardiac surgery remains high, at around 30%. POAF increases the risk of cardiac decompensation, stroke, acute myocardial infarction, and death, resulting in increased morbidity and mortality, hospital length of stay, and cost of patient management. Episodes of POAF are usually paroxysmal …
Thoracic Paravertebral Block Anesthesia for Breast Cancer Surgery
Background Mastectomies are traditionally performed under general anesthesia (GA), often with the addition of regional anesthesia for post-operative pain relief. Thoracic paravertebral blocks (TPVB) had previously been described in the literature to be sufficient for intra-operative anesthesia as an alternative to GA. A 2021 literature review by Cochrane Library comparing …
CRP-guided Transanal Drainage Removal After Rectal Surgery
Transanal drainage tube (TDT) has the benefit of reducing intraluminal pressure after rectal surgery and may provide ideal regional environment for anastomotic healing. Postoperative C-reactive protein (CRP) trajectory has a high negative predictive value of 0.99 for ruling out anastomotic leak (AL). Previously, TDT was removed at the surgeon's own …
Regional Anesthesia in Minimally Invasive Lumbar Spine Surgery
Opioid overuse is a widespread public health crisis in the United States with increasing rates of addiction and overdose deaths from prescription opioids. Reducing the need for opiate analgesics in the post-operative setting has become a high priority in minimizing long-term opioid use in surgical patients. This study will serve …
Effects of Prone Position After Major Abdominal Surgery
Evaluation of postoperative prone position after major abdominal surgery. A randomized clinical trial of 100+100 patients and further add a voice/speech/singing protocol.
Peroperative Effect of Regional Anesthesia in Hip Surgery
A total of 120 patients scheduled for surgical operation due to hip fracture were divided into two randomized groups. The first group received pericapsular nerve group (PENG) block, while the second group received lumbar erector spinae plane (L-ESP) block prior to the surgery. Subsequently, all patients were positioned in the …
Complex Decongestive Physiotherapy Applied After Lymphovenous Anastomosis Surgery
Type of this study: Prospective randomized controlled study. The aim of our study is to compare patients with lymphedema who have undergone lymphovenous anastomosis surgery receiving Complex Decongestive Physiotherapy (CDP), patients with lymphedema who have not undergone surgery who receive Complex Decongestive Physiotherapy, in terms of Extremity Volume, Quality of …
Analgesic Efficacy of Maxigesic in Breast Cancer Surgery
The present study aims to find a perioperative analgesic method that provides sufficient analgesia while reducing immune compromise in cancer surgery. This study is to investigate the analgesic effect and safety of Maxigesic inj. (a combination of acetaminophen 1000 mg and ibuprofen 300 mg), which is added to opioid-based IV-PCA …
Comparing Laparoscopic and Open Surgery for Pancreatic Carcinoma
Background: Pancreatic cancer (PC) is one of the most aggressive malignant neoplasms with poor outcomes. Pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) is the only curative treatment for PC. Minimally invasive surgery has been progressively developed, first with the advent of hybrid-laparoscopy and recently with the total laparoscopy surgeries, but a number of issues are …
Low Dose Vasopressin vs Phenylephrine in Cardiac Surgery
This is a randomized, open label study to investigate vasopressin versus phenylephrine as a first line pressor in cardiac surgery. All patients >18 years of age presenting for coronary artery bypass graft (CABG), valve surgery, or combined CABG and valve surgery will be screened for inclusion. Patients with ejection fraction …
