Preventive Effect of Perinatal Oral Probiotic Supplementation (POPS) on Neonatal Jaundice
This is a randomized double-blind placebo-controlled parallel group superiority clinical trial among 94 pregnant women (47 in each group) to investigate the effect of maternal perinatal probiotic supplementation on neonatal jaundice, breast milk microbiome, maternal stool, and infant fecal microbiome. Vivomixx®-probiotic product will be used as treatment and placebo as …
A Trial of Phosphodiesterase-5 Inhibitor in Neonatal Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia (TOP-CDH)
Congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) occurs in approximately 1 in 3000 US live births, similar to the incidence seen within the Utah Birth Defects cohort. The diaphragmatic defect compromises lung growth and alters pulmonary vascular development. This is reflected postnatally as respiratory failure, pulmonary hypertension (PH) and overall cardiopulmonary dysfunction, particularly …
Fetal Surgery Interview Study: Parental Perceptions of Fetal Surgery
Open maternal-fetal surgery is currently used on fetuses with myelomeningocele (MMC). Fetoscopic or minimal access fetal surgery is also being used to treat fetuses with congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH). Following accurate diagnosis of a congenital malformation such as MMC or CDH, prospective parents face a range of uncertainties regarding the …
Safety and Efficacy of FETO in CDH: A Phase III Trial
Congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) is a birth defect characterized by the development of a hole in the diaphragm, the breathing muscle that separates the chest from the abdomen. As a result, organs in the abdomen can move into the chest and press on the developing lungs. This prevents the lungs …
Advanced Surgical Simulation Processes in the Correction of Skeletal Defects and Deformities
Virtual Surgical Planning (VSP), Computer-Aided Surgical Simulation (CASS) for bone corrections, and the customization of implants and devices through 3D printing, known as Patient-Specific Instruments (PSI) and Graft-Specific Instruments (GSI), are assuming increasingly central roles in orthopedic clinical and surgical practice. One area witnessing notable advancement is the treatment of …
Feto-Endoscopic Tracheal Occlusion (FETO) for Left Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia
Tracheal occlusion IDE approved by FDA for congenital diaphragmatic hernia fetuses.
Safety and Efficacy of FETO in CDH Phase III
Tracheal occlusion IDE approved by FDA for congenital diaphragmatic hernia fetuses and standard of care control group
Fetal Endoscopic Tracheal Occlusion for Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia (FETO)
The purpose of this research is to gather information on the safety and effectiveness of a new procedure called Fetoscopic Endoluminal Tracheal Occlusion (FETO).
A Trial of Targeted Therapies for Patients With Slow-Flow or Fast-Flow Vascular Malformations
Recent studies have demonstrated that growth of vascular malformations can be driven by genetic variants in one of 2 signalling pathways. Targeted drugs specific to these pathways have been developed and shown to be effective in treating cancer. This study will describe the effectiveness of (i) 48 weeks of alpelisib …
Prospective Registry for Long-term Outcomes Following FETO in Severe Left and Right CDH
The purpose of this study is to evaluate successful placement and removal of Fetoscopic Endoluminal Tracheal Occlusion (FETO) device in cases of intrathoracic liver herniation with isolated left congenital diaphragmatic hernia (LCDH) with Observed/Expected (O/E) Lung to Head Circumference Ratio (LHR) < 30% or isolated right congenital diaphragmatic hernia (RCDH) …
