The Effects of Chin Tuck Against Resistance Exercise on Acute Stroke Patients With Dysphagia
The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of chin tuck against resistance exercise on swallowing function, depression, and quality of life in acute stroke patients with dysphagia.
Corticosteroids for Post-Extubation Dysphagia
This is a placebo-controlled, double-blind randomized trial of a short course of intravenous corticosteroids for Acute Respiratory Failure Survivors with Fiberoptic Endoscopic Evaluation of Swallowing (FEES) documented laryngeal edema. Study was leveraged using the existing R01 grant infrastructure COMIRB # 21-3873, study design, and research methods. Patients for the study …
The Effects of Using Augmented Reality (AR) System to Train Foreign Care Workers.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of augmented reality (AR) system training intervention of foreign care workers on the salivary biomarker and oral function of older people. This randomized controlled trial included experimental group: AR group (EG-A) Video group (EG-B) and control group(CG), respectively. The EG-A …
Outcomes of a Single Chest Drain vs Two Drains
Esophagectomy is a major surgical procedure done for carcinoma of esophagus. Usually bilateral chest tubes are placed in surgery for prevention of fluid accumulation in chest. However such procedure limits patients mobility and increases severity of pain. recent studies suggest that a single drain can be safe and effective. our …
Changes in Esophageal Distensibility With Proton Pump Inhibitors in Patients With Esophageal Eosinophilia: A Pilot Study
This pilot study will explore whether treatment of eosinophilic inflammation in the esophagus is associated with an improved distensibility of the esophagus. Furthermore, previous studies of the esophagus using EndoFlip only measured distensibility of the distal esophagus, specifically the distal esophagus and esophagogastric junction. Eosinophilia in EoE has been demonstrated …
Folfox+Irinotecan+Chemort In Esophageal Cancer
In this research study, is studying how Liposomal Irinotecan in combination with the standard of care interventions FOLFOX, carboplatin paclitaxel, and radiation therapy affect gastroesophageal junction or esophagogastric cancer This research study involves the following study intervention: \- Liposomal irinotecan
Minimally Residual of Esophageal Cancer 001
This trial aims to assess changes in minimal residual disease (MRD) status before and after radical concurrent chemoradiotherapy combined with immunotherapy and adjuvant immunotherapy after neoadjuvant immunochemotherapy in patients with inoperable stage II-III esophageal squamous cell cancer (ESCC), and correlate with the efficacy of adjuvant immunotherapy.
Esophageal and Gastric Registry and Biorepository
The evaluation of the foregut, the esophagus and stomach, has come a long way over the past two decades, and continues to experience exciting discoveries in the clinical evaluation of foregut physiology. Assessing esophageal peristalsis has relied for the past several decades on High Resolution Manometry (HRM), however it has …
Prehab for Lung and Esophageal Cancer
Research indicates that individuals diagnosed with lung or esophageal cancer who enter treatment with higher functional capacities, improved body composition, and better nutrition status tend to experience better outcomes and a higher quality of life. The primary objective of a prehabilitation health coaching program is to enhance the overall health …
EXTEND ARDS-J Esophageal Pressure Study
Background: Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) patients require careful assessment before extubation to prevent failure, which is associated with poor outcomes. While current guidelines recommend weaning protocols, these are based on general respiratory failure studies rather than ARDS-specific data. Esophageal pressure (Pes) measurement provides direct assessment of inspiratory effort but …
