Precision Treatment of Lumbar Spine Surgery Through Advanced Nerve Root Blockade
The overall purpose of the study is to investigate whether selective spinal nerve root blocks can improve diagnostics of radiculopathy due to lumbar disc herniation (LDH), foraminal stenosis (FS), and recess stenosis (RS), and hence identify the patients that will benefit from surgical intervention.
Gastrointestinal Stimulation as a Treatment of Postoperative Ileus Following Extensive Surgery
The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the effect of gastrointestinal stimulation with a pacemaker on the length of postoperative bowel paralysis in patients undergoing major abdominal surgery due to metastasizing colorectal cancer, appendiceal cancer or pseudomyxoma peritonei. The main question it aims to answer is if the …
Machine Learning-based Surgical Guidance System for Robot-assisted Rectal Surgery
The aim of the study is to evaluate the technical feasibility and applicability of a surgical assistance system based on image recognition algorithms in a first-in-human pilot study. In addition, this study will provide preliminary data on the oncological outcome of the assistance system.
Efficacy of Serratus Anterior Plane Block With Dexmedetomidine During Breast Surgery
This study aims to compare single level serratus block versus bilevel serratus block with and without dexmedetomidine in cancer patients undergoing modified radical mastectomy for breast cancer regarding pain control and possible side effects.
Quadratus Lumborum Block After Cytoreductive Surgery and Hyperthermic Intra-peritoneal Chemotherapy
This study aims to assess whether transmusculr quadratus lomborum block (QL block) can reduce postoperative pain after cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intra-peritoneal chemotherapy (CRS and HIPEC). Patients will be randomly assigned to either QL block group or control group. Ultrasound-guided bilateral transmuscular quadratus lomborum block will be performed in QL …
Nifekalant Versus Amiodarone in New-Onset Atrial Fibrillation After Cardiac Surgery
Postoperative atrial fibrillation is a major complication of cardiac surgery, which could lead to high morbidity and mortality, increase duration of hospital stay and increase the cost of treatment. New-onset atrial fibrillation after cardiac surgery is considered as a multifactorial phenomenon. Amiodarone, the most commonly used drug for cardioversion, is …
Brain Areas of Time-To-Contact Perception: an Awake Surgery Study
During a brain surgery targeted to remove a brain tumor, the neurosurgeon wakes up the patient to delimit the tumor area exactly, and identify the surrounding areas, to limit the surgery damages. The present project aims at testing the patient in this awake phase to determine the brain areas implied …
CSF Metabolomics and Glymphatic Function in Patients Receiving VP- Shunt Surgery.
In this randomized control study, the investigators intended to evaluate the influence of different anesthetics on postoperative cognitive dysfunction, neuroinflammation, CSF metabolomics, and glymphatic function in patients with normal pressure hydrocephalus for VP shunt surgery. The investigators assume that the use of dexmedetomidine infusion and proper anesthsia depth during general …
Prophylactic Cholecystectomy in Midgut NETs Patients Who Require Primary Tumor Surgery.
The investigators want to study the effectiveness of prophylactic cholecystectomy in patients with midgut neuroendocrine tumor (jejunum, ileum or proximal colon) who require primary tumor surgery. When patients are diagnosed and are tributary to surgical treatment, the tumor might compromise vascularization, and patients need an extensive bowel resection. The patients …
VATS Surgery Compared to Drainage in the Treatment of Pleural Empyema
Pleura empyema is a frequent disease with a high morbidity and a mortality rate of approximately 15%. Pleura empyema is characterized by the passage of three stages (I - III). The aim of treating the disease is to remove the infection and provide fully expansion of the lung. The initial …
