The Effect of Thermal Blanket After Peripheral Artery Surgery
Peripheral arterial disease is one of the most common clinical conditions associated with cardiovascular morbidity and increased mortality, requiring exercise, antiaggregant and surgical revascularization therapy. As in peripheral arterial surgery, postoperative hypothermia is common in patients who have undergone surgical intervention and the duration of surgery is longer than 30 …
Modulating Surgery-Induced Blood-Brain Barrier Disruption in Elderly
Postoperative delirium (POD) is the most common complications (~50-60%) in elderly and major challenges to our rapidly growing aging population. Growing evidence suggests a possible role for neuroinflammation in the development of delirium, which is facilitated by a transient increase in blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeability. Lidocaine and dexmedetomidine, commonly used …
Comparison of Intravenous Lidocaine vs Ketamine in Colorectal Surgery
Patients undergoing open colorectal surgery were randomly divided into two groups: Intravenous Lidocaine (IV-Lido) vs Intravenous Ketamine (IV-Keta). For the IV-Lido group, patients received a loading dose of Lidocaine than a continuous infusion over twenty-four hours. For the IV-Keta goup, patients received a loading dose of Ketamine than a continuous …
Minimally Invasive Superficial Venous Insufficiency Surgery and Digital Sedation
Virtual reality has been shown to reduce the pain experienced during medical procedures. The aim of this study is to determine to what extent the use of this technique could make it possible to defer the administration of neuroleptanalgesia during the endovenous thermal treatment of superficial varicose veins in addition …
Gait Pattern Analysis After All Arthroscopic ATFL Repair Surgery
The study will investigate alterations in post-surgical gait patterns among patients who have undergone all arthroscopic repair surgery for the anterior talofibular ligament (ATFL) due to ankle instability. The gait biomechanics of patients scheduled for surgery will be assessed preoperatively using pedobarographic analysis. Subsequent changes in walking biomechanics will be …
Biological OviTex Versus Synthetic Graft in Robotic Prolapse Surgery
This prospective study aims to assess the efficacy of the OviTex 1S permanent mesh in pelvic floor surgery in comparison with the current standard polypropylene mesh.
Preoperative Paravertebral Block in Cancer Surgery of the Lung
The investigators aim to determine whether ultrasound-guided preemptive paravertebral blockade (PVB) local anaesthetic (pre-PVB LA), administered in addition to the post-operative PVB (post-PVB) local anaesthetic (LA) infusion, reduces acute postoperative pain, opioid requirement, chronic pain, and improves surgical recovery, in thoracoscopic surgery for lung cancer.
Reducing Opioid Use for Chronic Pain Patients Following Surgery
Patients with chronic pain are often prescribed long-term opioid therapy, despite the serious risks and growing concerns related to opioid use. The Toronto General Hospital has created the world's first multidisciplinary perioperative Transitional Pain Service Program (TPSP) aimed at reducing the incidence and severity of chronic post-surgical pain. The TPSP …
What Laxative Should be Used After Hip Fracture Surgery?
To conduct a randomized clinical trial to determine how best to prevent constipation after hip fracture surgery using laxatives.
Ketamine for Preventing Post-Spinal Hypotension in Orthopedic Surgery
This randomized, double-blind, controlled clinical trial investigates the efficacy of a sub-anesthetic dose of ketamine (0.5 mg/kg IV) in preventing post-spinal hypotension in patients undergoing elective orthopedic surgeries under spinal anesthesia. The study compares ketamine with placebo (normal saline) in terms of blood pressure stability and incidence of hypotensive episodes …
