Health Outcomes of Parents With Cystic Fibrosis-Aim 2
The goal of this observational prospective study is to determine the health impact of parenthood on United States (US) people with CF in the era of CF transmembrane regulator protein (CFTR) modulators. The investigators will collect physical and mental health data to comprehensively evaluate the impact of parenthood in CF …
Concomitant LAAC/AF Ablation (Watchman FLX Pro)
This sub-study is a prospective/retrospective, non-randomized, observational, comparative cohorts study, embedded in and expanding on the infrastructure of a real-world AF ablation registry DISRUPT-AF (NCT06335082).
Strength and Muscle Related Outcomes for Nutrition and Lung Function in CF
The goal of the study is to examine multiple markers of anthropometrics, body composition, sarcopenia and frailty and compare them to dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) output, which is considered the current clinical gold-standard tool to measure body composition. The result of this study will provide detailed data regarding the …
Evaluation of Hypoxia in Primary Melanoma
When controlling for tumor present in the Sentinel lymph node (SLN), intranodal hypoxia, as measured by Carbonic Anhydrase IX (CAIX IHC), is associated with worse PFS. This suggests that melanoma tumors may be utilizing deregulated metabolism as a means of propagating themselves to the next station of metastasis. This study …
Personalized Postoperative Pain Management Following Thoracic Surgery in Adults
The proposed research is an important extension of an ongoing perioperative personalized analgesia and intravenous opioid pharmacogenetic research. This research focuses on two of the most commonly used oral opioid analgesics, oxycodone, and methadone, in adults following thoracic surgery. Major inpatient thoracic surgeries (TS) for lung disease are common and …
Effects of Anti-PD1 Adjuvant Checkpoint Blockade Immunotherapy on Atypical/Dysplastic Nevi
This study will examine the impact of anti-programmed cell death 1 (PD1) therapy given in the approved adjuvant therapeutic regimens upon the morphologic, histopathologic, molecular and immunologic as well as genomic features of atypical/dysplastic nevi (A/DN) in patients with a prior documented melanoma of Stages IIB, IIC, IIIA, IIIB, or …
Conduit Cages and Fibergraft BG Putty
The Conduit cages are intended to restore the intervertebral height and to facilitate the intervertebral body fusion in the cervical and lumbar spine in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease and instabilities at one or more levels of the spine. The Fibergraft Bioactive Glass (BG) is engineered to mimic …
Continuous Jugular Venous Oxygen Saturation (SjO2) Measurement After Cardiac Arrest
Patients successfully resuscitated from sudden cardiac arrest are often comatose, having suffered a period of low blood flow and oxygen delivery to the brain. They are also at risk of suffering further brain injury during the immediate period after resuscitation, in which the brain's normal regulatory functions are impaired. To …
Adult Patient Outcomes After Spine Surgery with Fibergraft BG Putty/Viper Prime
The Viper Prime/Expedium spine systems are intended to provide immobilization and stabilization of spinal segments in skeletally mature patients as an adjunct to fusion in the treatment of acute and chronic instabilities or deformities of the thoracolumbar and sacral spine. The Fibergraft Bioactive Glass (BG) is engineered to mimic the …
Biomechanical Validation of the CATT
As of 2020, 53 million Americans provide unpaid care to an individual with a disability. One commonly performed activity of daily living (ADL) provided by informal caregivers is assisted transfers, which requires moving an individual from one surface to another. Approximately 94% of informal caregivers who assist with ADLs to …
