Pre-Surgical Immunonutrition's Effect on Colorectal Surgery
Colorectal surgery patients face excessive catabolism, increasing inflammation and immune compromise. The administration of nutritional supplements known as immunonutrition before gastrointestinal surgery has been shown to improve clinical outcomes; however, the mechanisms underlying these benefits remain inconclusive. The objective of the study is to evaluate the effect of preoperative nutritional …
Prehabilitation for Patients Undergoing Lung Cancer Surgery
Major surgery has been linked to running a marathon as in both represent large endeavours where the body will experience an increase in demands to supply the necessary energy. It has been alledged that, as one would train to prepare for a marathon, the same should be applied to surgery. …
Hip Abductor Tendon Repair Versus Sham Surgery
This study will examine the effectiveness of open surgical reconstruction in the treatment of patients with hip abductor tendon tears. Patients will be randomly allocated to either the open surgical reconstruction or to a open surgical sham procedure. The primary outcome is patient reported pain measured by the revised Copenhagen …
Opioid-free Anaesthesia in Breast Cancer Surgery
Background Various analgesic modalities are adopted for perioperative analgesia in breast cancer surgeries. Opioid-free and opioid-sparing techniques are gaining popularity due to the lack of opioid-dependent undesirable effects, including respiratory depression, urinary retention, nausea and vomiting, constipation, itching, opioid-induced hyperalgesia, tolerance, addiction, and immune system disorders. The goal of this …
Dual-port Trans-subclavian Thyroid Endoscopic Surgery
This is a prospective, single-center, open-label, non-randomized controlled real-world study aimed at exploring a novel approach to cavity construction for thyroid endoscopic surgery. The study seeks to evaluate its effectiveness and safety while accumulating further evidence-based medical data. Three hundred patients with thyroid tumors were divided into an experimental group …
Massage Therapy After Thoracic or Lumbar Surgery
The purpose of this research is to look at the effect of massage therapy on the pain, anxiety, and quality of life that pediatric patients have after undergoing spinal fusion surgery. This is a single-site, prospective, randomized, interventional study design that will involve post-thoracic and post-lumbar spinal fusion surgeries of …
Abdominal Neuroblastoma Laparoscopic Surgery Risk Factors Stratification
Surgery plays significant role in treatment of neurogenic tumors, both for benign ganglioneuroma and for high risk neuroblastoma. The world literature has accumulated large experience in laparoscopic surgery for abdominal neuroblastoma. The presence of IDRF (image-defined risk factors) and tumor size (\>4-7 cm) are considered as common contraindications for minimally …
Intratumoral Lidocaine Injection Before Oropharyngeal Cancer Surgery
Based on evidence that the local anesthetic lidocaine may have anticancer effects, this study will assess the safety and efficacy of intratumoral lidocaine injection at the time of direct laryngoscopy prior to TransOral Robotic Surgery (TORS) and neck dissection for oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC). The primary objective of the …
Platelet and Autotransfusion Device in Cardiac Surgery
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 …
Tranexamic Acid in Adult Spinal Deformity Surgery
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 …
