Mini-invasive Spine Surgery for Neuromuscolar Scoliosis
Neuromuscular scoliosis (SNM) are deformities related to the impairment of normal function of the central nervous system (CNS) and/or peripheral nervous system (PNS) resulting in alterations to the of the functional unit represented by the integrated motor sequence (SIM). At the level of the spine, dysfunction of the SIM results …
Supraclavicular Versus Axillary Block for Arteriovenous (AV) Fistula Creation
This study compares the analgesic efficacy of supraclavicular brachial plexus nerve block to axillary nerve block techniques in adults undergoing AV fistula creation. Both these techniques will be done under ultrasound guidance, using the same local anesthetic drug. 120 patients will be included in this study, 60 patients for each …
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 …
Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant for Patients With Primary Immune Deficiencies
This is a standard of care treatment guideline for allogeneic hematopoetic stem cell transplant (HSCT) in patients with primary immune deficiencies.
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 …
Laparotomy Versus Percutaneous Endoscopic Correction of Myelomeningocele
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of a fetoscopic surgical technique for antenatal correction of fetal myelomeningocele. Two surgical approaches will be utilized. The percutaneous approach will be offered to participants with a posterior placenta. The laparotomy/uterine exteriorization approach will be offered to participants regardless of …
Evaluating the Efficacy and Safety of Intra-wound Vancomycin Powder in High Risk Patients
Surgical site infections (SSI) are not uncommon, especially in specific high-risk groups including spinal deformity and tumor (i.e. metastatic spine surgery) surgery. Well-recognized measures have been adopted to reduce surgical site infection, and the use of topical vancomycin powder has gained popularity in recent years. Given the lack of high-quality …
Remote Cardiovascular Monitoring in Post-TAVI Patients
The goal of this randomised clinical trial is to utilise a remote monitoring algorithm to gather essential clinical data, aiming to guide the management of post-Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI) patients and reduce both postprocedural hospital length of stay and readmissions. This strategic integration of technology aims to address gaps …
