Air Leak Detection and Treatment
Developing a methodology to detect, quantify and treat air leaks intraoperatively using a bio-adhesive, to thereby reduce postoperative surgical complications, morbidity, and length of stay for patients undergoing pulmonary resection.
Quebec Registry for Atypical Femur Fractures
Bisphosphonates are recommended as first-line agents to reduce fracture risk in patients with osteoporosis and have in general an excellent safety profile. However, recent reports have noted that prolonged use of bisphosphonates may be associated with rare but serious adverse effects, namely atypical femur fractures (AFF), an atraumatic subset of …
Effect of High Dose Insulin on Infectious Complications Following Major Surgery
Despite improvements in surgical techniques and perioperative care, the high incidence of postoperative surgical site infections remains a major problem in patients undergoing major abdominal surgery (liver, pancreatic and colorectal surgery). Using the hyperinsulinemic-normoglycemic clamp technique, i.e. continuous infusion of insulin combined with dextrose titrated to "clamp" blood glucose between …
Using AI-assisted Optical Polyp Diagnosis for Diminutive Colorectal Polyps
This is a prospective study that is the first to implement resect and discard and diagnose and leave strategies in real-time practice using stringent documentation and adjudication by 2 expert endoscopists as the gold standard. The primary aim of this study is to show the accuracy of intracolonoscopy AI-assisted optical …
ACTEMRA® for the Treatment of Pediatric Adamantinomatous Craniopharyngioma
ACTEMRA (tocilizumab) is an IL-6 receptor antagonist used for the treatment of adult Rheumatoid Arthritis as well as Polyarticular (PJIA) and Systemic (SJIA) Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis. In this Phase II, the drug will be used to treat pediatric patients diagnosed with recurrent Adamantinomatous Craniopharyngioma including patients who have undergone surgery …
Comparing Hypothermic Temperatures During Hemiarch Surgery
Hypothermic circulatory arrest is an important surgical technique, allowing complex aortic surgeries to be performed safely. Hypothermic circulatory arrest provides protection to cerebral and visceral organs, but may result in longer cardiopulmonary bypass times during surgery, increased risks of bleeding, inflammation, and neuronal injury. To manage these consequences, a trend …
Glycemic Variations During the Menstrual Cycle in Women With Type 1 Diabetes
In clinical practice, women living with type 1 diabetes frequently report that insulin requirements change across the menstrual cycle. Consequently, glycemic fluctuations are observed. This phenomenon could be explained by a decrease in insulin sensitivity during the second half of the menstrual cycle (luteal phase). Overall, despite an important proportion …
A First in Human Study to Assess the Safety, Tolerability, and Pharmacokinetics of EDK060 in Adults With CMT1A.
The purpose of this study is to characterize the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of EDK060 as compared to placebo in adult patients with CMT1A.
Proactive Risk-based Optimization & Notifications for Treatment & Outcomes in Head & Neck Cancer
Delays between surgery and the initiation of post-operative radiotherapy (S-PORT) in head and neck cancer (HNC) patients are prevalent and associated with worse oncologic outcomes. This pilot study evaluates whether a proactive, automated care coordination system (PRONTO-HN) can improve adherence to recommended S-PORT intervals of ≤42 days at the Centre …
Acoustics as a Metric of Airway Pressure in Premature Infants Using Bubble Continuous Positive Airway Pressure
This is an observational, proof-of-concept, feasibility study where 30 preterm infants on bubble CPAP with gestational age \< 32+0 weeks will be recruited from the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) at the Montreal Children's Hospital. The study's main goals are: To determine the relationship between ambient bubbling sounds and delivered …
