Broad-spectrum Antibiotic Prophylaxis in Tumor and Infected Orthopedic Surgery
The perioperative antibiotic prophylaxis is evidence-based in orthopedic surgery. While its duration ranges from a single dose to three doses throughout the world, the choice of the prophylactic agents is undisputed. Worldwide, the surgeons use 1st or 2nd-generation cephalosporins (or vancomycin in some cases). However, there are particular clinical situation …
Taste Physiology in Obese Volunteers Before and After Bariatric Surgery
The objective is to investigate neuro-anatomical correlates of gastrointestinal taste stimulation by means of functional MRI before and after bariatric surgery. Intragastric administration of glucose, monosodium glutamate, chloroquine and placebo is followed by functional brain MRI in obese humans before and 3 months after surgery.
Surgery Versus Endoscopic Resection for Incompletely Removed Early Colon CAnceR
Randomized head-to-head comparison trial among patients who have undergone incomplete endoscopic resection of early colon cancer to evaluate the benefits, harms and burdens, as well as the ecological footprint and cost-effectiveness of endoscopic full thickness resection (eFTR), a minimally invasive endoscopic treatment with a colonoscope, as compared to standard-of-care surgery. …
Ciprofol Based on Total Intravenous Anesthesia During Pediatric Laparoscopic Surgery
a prospective, double-blind, fully randomized controlled, non-inferiority clinical trial to investigate the use of total intravenous anesthesia in pediatric laparoscopic surgery.

The main aims to answer are: To explore the effect of intraoperative infusion of esketamine on the incidence of postoperative sleep disturbance and sleep quality …
Glucose Monitoring in Treatment of Postprandial Hypoglycemia After Bariatric Surgery
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if continuous glucose monitoring works to treat postprandial hypoglycaemia in patients who have undergone bariatric surgery. The main question it aims to answer is: • Is continuous glucose monitoring superior to usual care for prevention of postprandial hypoglycaemia in patients with …
Supraclavicular Bupivacaine Vs. Supraclavicular Liposomal Bupivacaine for Orthopedic Wrist Surgery
Orthopedic wrist procedures often cause significant postoperative pain. A supraclavicular nerve block is an effective and proven method to help reduce postoperative pain and decrease opioid use around the time of upper extremity surgery. Liposomal bupivacaine (Exparel) has been approved for use around the brachial plexus, but its analgesic efficacy …
Timing of Surgery After Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy for Advanced Ovarian Cancer
Ovarian cancer is among the top five primary causes of cancer-related mortality in women. Most ovarian malignant tumours originate from epithelial cells The majority of patients typically have advanced-stage tumours at diagnosis. When complete surgery with no macroscopic visible disease is not feasible due to both the spread of the …
Opioid Sparing Anesthesia Care for Pediatric Patients Having Tonsil Surgery
This is a prospective, randomized, controlled, non-inferiority study of patients undergoing tonsil surgeries at Boston Children's Hospital Waltham. The overall aim is to evaluate the efficacy of an opioid anesthetic plan (morphine, ketorolac, and acetaminophen versus an opioid sparing anesthetic plan (dexmedetomidine, ketorolac and acetaminophen) for perioperative analgesia and recovery …
Pediatric Video Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery (VATS) in Management of Empyema
Thoracic surgeons have developed a thoracoscopic procedure which is less intrusive method allows complete evacuation and washing of the debris from the pleural cavity. This approach may also have the benefit of less invasive maneuver, a shorter hospital stay and a decreased rate of postoperative complications. The aim of this …
