Perimetric Testing With Virtual Reality
Perimetry is an essential component in the diagnosis and monitoring of glaucoma. Since the advent of Standard Automated Perimetry (SAP), one of the clinical standards has been the Humphrey Field Analyzer (HFA, Carl Zeiss AG, Oberkochen, Germany). Visual field (VF) testing provided by the HFA is standard-of-care in glaucoma clinics …
Effects of Vibration on Motor Function of Survivors of Chronic Stroke
The aim of this study is to evaluate how vibration of the tendons enhances arm and hand training in survivors of chronic stroke. The investigators hypothesize that wrist/elbow robotic training, combined with body awareness training will improve arm and hand function in individuals with chronic stroke.
Effect of Duramesh™ on Hernia Formation After Ileostomy Closure, Randomized Controlled Trial
Diverting ileostomy is frequently utilized to protect high-risk anastomoses, though it is not shown to reduce the leak rate it may reduce the severe consequences of an anastomotic leak. Ileostomy will be reversed with restoration of continuity in majority of patients. Stoma site incisional hernias after ileostomy closure are complex …
Dex +/- Caffeine Sedation in a Post-MRI Recovery in a Pediatric Population

Unfortunately, Dex is associated with very long emergence times and …
Relugolix and Enzalutamide in Combination With Radiation Therapy for the Treatment of Very High Risk Prostate Cancer, OPTIMAL Trial
This phase II trial tests how well relugolix and enzalutamide, in combination with radiation therapy, works in treating patients with very high risk prostate cancer. Relugolix is a form of androgen deprivation therapy. It prevents the release of testosterone, a hormone required to sustain prostate growth. Reducing testosterone levels may …
Brain Function Monitoring During Surgery
The purpose of this research is to gather information on the effectiveness of the Sedline Brain Function Monitor, and its use in this study to determine whether monitoring the brain activity during anesthesia will improve recovery, including earlier discharge and less side effects. Furthermore, the study team wants to determine …

Segmentectomy After Induction Therapy (SAINT)
The primary objective will be to determine the feasibility of performing a high-quality sublobar anatomic resection (segmentectomy) with R0 margin status on final pathology for patients who received induction therapy for NSCLC and are downstaged to ≤ycT1cN0M0 (TDi 3cm or less). T1c is tumor staging 1 and c stands for …
