A Study Protocol for Research Investigating How Geriatric Risk Assessment and Shared Decision-making Conversations Affect Treatment Decisions and Quality of Life in Patients Eligible for Open-heart Surgery.
The goal of this study is to determine whether intervention by the PRIME clinic influences cardiac treatment decisions, as well as patients quality of life and healthcare utilization. The main questions this study aims to answer are: Does PRIME consultation influence treatment recommendations? Does a personalized treatment plan for cardiac …
Post-operative Intravenous Iron to Treat Iron-deficiency Anemia in Patients Undergoing Cardiac Surgery
POAM is a multicenter, randomized, controlled, internal pilot trial, using a conventional, parallel group, two-armed design at 3 cardiac surgery centres in Canada. The study is designed to assess the feasibility of a future, definitive RCT investigating whether, in patients with chronic iron-deficiency anemia undergoing cardiac surgery, IV iron therapy …
Effect of Stellate Ganglion Block on Arterial Catheterization Complications in Selected Group of Patients Undergoing Elective Cardiac Surgeries
Radial artery catheterization is the usual method for invasive monitoring in cardiac surgeries. Although it is relatively safe, complications do happen. Hematoma and ischemia are well known complications. Also, radial-to-femoral arterial pressure gradient (RFAPG) post bypass is a common event which affect management of a critical patient in a critical …
A Retrospective Assessment of OviTex PRS (OviTex)
The objective of this retrospective-prospective, observational study is to evaluate the safety profile overall and within two device types of OviTex PRS in previous pre-pectoral or sub-pectoral implant-based breast reconstructions.
Consistency of Carotid Doppler Blood Flow and Thermodilution Technique
Currently, the gold standard method to estimate CO is the thermodilution technique, pulmonary artery catheter (PAC) and PiCCO system included, however, the invasiveness and complexity of the thermodilution technique have limited their usefulness in many clinical scenarios. By measuring the carotid blood flow, continuous carotid doppler technique has been reported …
Transversus Thoracic Muscle Plane Block Versus Pectointercostal Fascial Block for Enhanced Recovery After Cardiac Surgery
This work aims to assess the analgesic efficacies of transversus thoracic muscle plane block (TTPB) and transversus thoracic muscle plane block (TTPB) for open cardiac surgeries
Postoperative Management of Patients Undergoing Head and Neck Microvascular Free Flap Reconstructive Surgery: is Admission to an Intensive Care Unit Necessary?
The aim of our study is to assess if patients undergoing head and neck free flap reconstructive surgery admitted to the ICU have equivalent postoperative outcomes to those admitted to an Otolaryngology specialty ward
Pilot Study Evaluating the Advantages of Sucrosomial® Iron Post-operative Supplementation vs Standard of Care After Cardiac Surgery
Primary objective: to evaluate the non-inferiority in terms of improvement of hemoglobin (Hg) levels within 30 days postoperatively between two proposed treatments. Secondary objective: to evaluate the financial costs associated with Sucrosomial® Iron treatment compared to Iron Sucrose (IV), while demonstrating non-inferiority in the improvement of hemoglobin levels, reduction in …
CARE Qualitative Study
Over 30,000 people have heart surgery in the UK every year. Heart surgery is safe, but around 1 in 5 people having heart surgery will be readmitted to hospital in the year after their operation. There is no research that explains why they come back into hospital. It may be …
Efficacy of Ultrasound Guided PIFB Versus Lidocaine Infusion on Postoperative Pain After Sternotomy
Chronic pain is a common complication after cardiothoracic surgery. The prevalence of post-sternoyomy pain syndrome (PSPS) ranges from 33% to 91%. Exact pathogenetic mechanisms for developing chronic pain after sternotomy are unknown. Apart from intraoperative nerve damage and subsequent postoperative neuropathic pain, operation techniques, age, sex, pre-existing pain, genetic and …
