Post-Operative Dosing of Dexamethasone in Patients with Brain Tumors After a Craniotomy, PODS Trial
This phase II trial tests the effect of decreasing (tapering) doses of dexamethasone on steroid side effects in patients after surgery to remove (craniotomy) a brain tumor. Steroids are the gold standard post-surgery treatment to reduce swelling (edema) at the surgical site to reduce neurological symptoms. Although, corticosteroids reduce edema, …
Evaluation of the Reproducibility of a Fatigability Test Fitted to Patients With Spinal Muscular Atrophy
Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is an autosomal recessive neuromuscular disease caused by the degeneration of motor neurons in the anterior horn of the spinal cord, due to the absence of the SMN1 gene and the resulting lack of SMN protein. Some patients with particularly severe forms (types 0 or 1) …

Trigger Point Injection for Myofascial Pain Syndrome in the Low Back: A Randomized Controlled Trial
Rationale: Low back pain (LBP), or myofascial pain syndrome (MPS) of the low back, accounts for approximately 2.63 million visits in the United States, or 2.3 percent of annual Emergency Department (ED) visits.

The names of the study drugs used in …
Conditioning Regimen of Melphalan-busulfan and Fludarabine: a Randomized Study of Different Dose of Melphalan
Conditioning regimen with melphalan-busulfan and fludarabine (MBF) achieved low relapse rate in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and myelodysplasia syndrome (MDS). In our previous retrospective study, we demonstrated that melphalan dose at 100 or 140mg/m2 had similar incidence of relapse but it might had lower toxicities. In this prospective …
Sugammadex Vs Neostigmine in Reversing Neuromuscular Blocks in Outpatient ERCP. A Randomized, Double-Blinded Trial
The investigators propose a single-center,assessor-Blinded, parallel group randomized trial to compare the efficacy of reversal of rocuronium induced neuromuscular blockade by sugammadex versus neostigmine in patients undergoing Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography at Cleveland Clinic Main Campus.
COMBO Endoscopy Oropharyngeal Airway in Sedated Fiberoptic Bronchoscopy for Patients: A Simon Two-Stage Trial
Hypoxia represents the prevailing adverse occurrence during the sedation of patients undergoing fiberoptic bronchoscopy with propofol. A recent innovation in this domain is the COMBO Endoscopy Oropharyngeal Airway-a multifaceted device that encompasses capnography monitoring, bite block , oxygenation support, and oropharyngeal airway management. This device has been purposefully designed to …
