Cardiac surgery is a bleeding-risk surgery and frequently requires blood transfusion. Intraoperative autotransfusion devices are used to aspirate, process and retransfuse patients' blood. These devices are effective in recovering red blood cells and limiting the need for transfusion of packed red blood cells. Some devices, such as I-SEP's SAME®, can …
Posterior spinal surgery for adult deformity is associated with high incidence of blood loss and need for blood transfusion and intraoperative blood salvage, with associated increased cost and risk for perioperative complications. Tranexamic acid (TXA) is relatively inexpensive anti-fibrinolytic agent that has been proven effective for decreasing intraoperative blood loss …
Bariatric surgery is the ideal therapeutic strategy for patients with severe obesity when lifestyle interventions have failed. Unfortunately, weight recovery after surgery affects one third of patients and is due to several factors, such as recovery of incorrect eating behaviour, reduction of physical activity or hormonal factors. Dilation of gastro-jejunal …
Purpose of the study: The main purpose of this research study is to see if a surgery procedure (limited partial pleurectomy and decortication) helps symptoms in people who have cancer that is unresectable that might not be able to be removed completely. This is called unresectable cancer. This study will …
The aim of this observational cohort study is to evaluate the effect of high-dose versus low-dose propofol infusion on the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). The study also seeks to assess the predictive performance of the Apfel and Koivuranta risk …
Postoperative delirium (POD) is an acute brain dysfunction characterized by inattention, impaired consciousness, and cognitive and orientation disturbances, and is a common complication after cardiac surgery. The high incidence of up to 52% of POD in cardiac surgery patients lead to a range of adverse clinical outcomes.The brain tissue is …
The purpose of this study is to examine how coordination between hospital departments affects patient flow between the free ward (B1), paid ward (C1) and the operating theatre (OT) for cataract surgeries at a tertiary eye care hospital. This will be an Interventional study using both quantitative and qualitative methods …
This study aims to evaluate perioperative hemodynamic changes using the inferior vena cava (IVC) collapsibility index in patients undergoing lumbar stabilization surgery under general anesthesia. The IVC diameter and collapsibility index will be measured using ultrasonography at predefined perioperative time points. Hemodynamic parameters such as blood pressure and heart rate …
Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a very common condition in older men. As the prostate enlarges, it can press on the urethra and make urination difficult. Typical symptoms include a weak urinary stream, frequent urination, getting up at night to urinate, and a feeling that the bladder is not fully …
Elective lumbar fusion surgery is associated with moderate to severe postoperative pain and often requires substantial perioperative opioid administration. Excessive opioid use may lead to adverse effects such as nausea, vomiting, sedation, respiratory depression, and delayed mobilization. Intravenous lidocaine infusion has been proposed as part of multimodal analgesia because of …
