Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy on Spastic Equinus Foot in Stroke Patients
The goal of this study is to evaluate long term effects of focused extracorporeal shock wave therapy (fESWT) on triceps surae spasticity in stroke patients according to the number of sessions applied. Hypothesis: 3 sessions of fESWT on equinus foot in stroke patients improve spasticity and functionality for longer term …
Stellate Ganglion Block for Preserving Arteriovenous Fistula in Hemodialysis Patients Undergoing Major Lower Limb Orthopedic Surgery
The aim of this study is to evaluate the role of stellate ganglion blockade (SGB) for preserving arteriovenous fistula in hemodialysis patients undergoing major lower limb orthopedic surgery.
Craniomaxillofacial and Upper Extremity Allotransplantation
The purpose of this study is to evaluate functional and aesthetic outcomes of combined facial and upper extremity composite tissue allografts on patients who have not achieved functional and aesthetic outcomes with conventional reconstructive surgical strategies and prosthetic devices.
Efficacy of ARISTA-AH for Restoring Hemostasis Following Posterior Long-segment Spinal Fusion.
The aim of this study is to assess the efficacy of the ARISTA AH for restoring hemostasis following a long segment posterior spinal fusion.
Effect of Ultrasound-guided Erector Spinae Plane Block on Postoperative Pain and Sleep Quality of Infants With Congenital Pulmonary Cystic Disease After Thoracoscopic Surgery
This study intends to evaluate the effect of erector spinae plane block on postoperative analgesia and sleep quality in infants with congenital cystic pulmonary disease after thoracoscopic surgery, and provides reference for perioperative pain treatment in children.
Single-Needle Distal Return for Long-Term Arteriovenous Fistula Care
Background For millions of people worldwide with kidney failure, a well-functioning vascular access, like an arteriovenous fistula (AVF), is essential for life-sustaining hemodialysis. However, the standard method requires puncturing the same AVF with two needles three times a week, which over time can damage the vessel, leading to scarring, narrowing, …
Human Craniomaxillofacial Allotransplantation
Background: The human face is critically important for breathing, eating, seeing, and speaking/ communicating, but its most important job may be to look like a human face. Devastating facial deformities often cause affected individuals to avoid human contact and disappear from society. Although current surgical advancements can somewhat restore facial …
Stereotactic Ablative Radiotherapy for the Treatment of Refractory Ventricular Tachycardia
Ventricular tachycardia (VT) is an abnormal rhythm arising from the bottom chambers (ventricles) of the heart. The hearts of most patients who develop VT have been previously damaged by a myocardial infarction (heart attack) or other heart muscle diseases (cardiomyopathies). The damage produces scar or fatty deposits that conduct electrical …
Treatment Result of Zirconia Laminate Veneer
This study aims to evaluate the clinical performance of the zirconia laminate veneer, a minimally invasive prosthetic restoration
A More Engaging Visual Field Test to Increase Use and Reliability in Pediatrics
The majority of young children do not think that visual field (VF) testing of peripheral vision is similar to a game; therefore, it is not surprising that they have difficulty maintaining attention during VF testing and thus the test reliability suffers as a consequence. Poor VF reliability has been a …
