The Choice of Vasopressor to Prevent Postoperative Acute Kidney Injury After Major Non-Cardiac Surgery
Low blood pressure, also known as hypotension, is very common during major surgery under general anesthesia. Prolonged or severe hypotension can lead to complications such as kidney injury after surgery that slow down patient recovery. Anesthesiologists commonly administer medications called vasopressors to treat low blood pressure during surgery. These medications …
Anesthesia and Perioperative Neurocognitive Disorders in the Elderly Patients Undergoing Hip Fracture Surgery Platform Trial (ANDES Platform Trial)
Anesthesia and perioperative Neurocognitive Disorders in the Elderly patients undergoing hip fracture Surgery platform trial (ANDES platform trial): A pragmatic multi-arm, adaptive, open label, multicenter randomized controlled platform trial to assess the effect of different enhance anesthesia technique in perioperative neurocognitive function, as compared to standard anesthesia care in the …
Driving Pressure During General Anesthesia for Minimally Invasive Abdominal Surgery (GENERATOR)
The purpose of this international multicenter, patient and outcome-assessor blinded randomized controlled trial is to determine whether the application of an individualized high Positive End Expiratory Pressure (PEEP) strategy with recruitment maneuvers, aiming at avoiding an increase in the driving pressure during intraoperative ventilation, protects against the development of postoperative …
Effect of Low-dose EsketaMine on dElirium in High-risk Elderly Patients uNdergoing elecTive Surgery (ELEMENT)
Delirium is an acutely occurred neurocognitive disorder characterized by fluctuating symptoms of inattention, altered consciousness and cognitive dysfunction. Delirium is reported to occur in 4% to 65% of postoperative patients depending on the population, and is especially common in older patients. Postoperative delirium is disturbing to patients and their families, …
Depth of Anesthesia on Postoperative Delirium and Cognitive After Surgery
The goal of this clinical trial (Balanced-2 study) is to compare light to deep general anesthesia using widely available brain monitors, to see if 'light' anesthesia could reduce rates of delirium, cognitive decline, and disability in older adults undergoing major surgery. Delirium is the most common serious surgical complication, occurring …
Trajectories of Recovery After Intravenous Propofol Versus Inhaled VolatilE Anesthesia Trial
The investigators will conduct a 12,500-patient randomized multi-center trial to determine (i) which general anesthesia technique yields superior patient recovery experiences in any of three surgical categories ((a) major inpatient surgery, (b) minor inpatient surgery, (c) outpatient surgery) and (ii) whether TIVA confers no more than a small (0.2 %) …
Perioperative Respiratory Care and Outcomes for Patients Undergoing High Risk Abdominal Surgery
PENGUIN is a pragmatic multi-center trial investigating the effects of pre-operative mouthwash and perioperative oxygen on the incidences of pneumonia and surgical site infection (SSI) following major abdominal surgery. Patients will be recruited from low and middle income countries and randomly assigned to a trial treatment arms: a) pre-operative chlorhexidine …
Evaluating a Strategy to Improve Pre-Anesthesia Care Discussions (My Anesthesia Choice-Hip Fracture)
The objective of this study is to assess the implementation process for and the effectiveness of a quality improvement (QI) strategy to increase shared decision-making around anesthesia options for hip fracture surgery at 6 US hospitals. The QI strategy is to be facilitated by a clinician-administered 1-page bedside conversation aid …
Total Intravenous Anesthesia and Recurrence Free Survival
The investigators propose to compare recurrence-free survival in patients having potentially curative (Stages 1-3) surgery for esophageal cancer who will be randomly assigned to propofol-based total intravenous anesthesia or sevoflurane-based balanced general anesthesia.
Influences of Propofol and Sevoflurane Anesthesia in Brain Tumor
In the preoperative waiting area, the patients are randomly assigned and divided into two groups according to the allocation sequence table (corresponding to 1:1 randomization) generated by the computer. The propofol group was both induced and maintained at an effect-site concentration (Ce) of 2.0-4.0 mcg/mL by a target-controlled infusion (TCI) …
