Thermodynamic Model of Hyperthermia in Humans Undergoing HIPEC
Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy (HIPEC) is a well-established alternative for patients with peritoneal surface malignancies. Although HIPEC has a predetermined protocol to manage body temperature, the resultant bladder and core-body temperatures are highly variable and unstable in clinical practice. Such results highlight an incomplete understanding of the thermodynamic processes during HIPEC …
An Audit of Cytoreductive Surgery and Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy
Peritoneal carcinomatosis is a common event in the natural history of colorectal and other digestive tract cancers. Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) provides a promising therapeutic option for highly selected patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis arising from different malignancies such as colorectal cancer, gastric cancer, ovarian cancer, or …
Ultrasonography in Children With First Febrile Urinary Tract Infection
In recent decades, different tests have been recommended by guidelines in the management of first febrile urinary tract infection (fUTI) in children, including kidney ultrasound (KUS), cystography (VCUG) and renal scintigraphy in order to exclude underlying kidney anomalies. The majority of guidelines, continue to recommend a routine KUS for all …
Dengue Virus Infection Amongst Patients With Acute Febrile Illness
A prospective observational study that will be conducted in Tangerang Regency, Indonesia with primary objective to determine the clinical characteristics, specific immune responses, and viral serotypes in patients with confirmed dengue virus infection in Tangerang District, Indonesia.
Fever of Unknown Origin (FUO) in Elderly Patients
Objective: Fever of unknown (FUO) origin remains challenging in geriatric patients. Geriatric patients have a blunted immune response responsible for altered fever mechanisms and immune cells responses. Consequently, FUO could be inappropriately named and could be changed in Inflammation of unknown origin (IUO) in this specific population. Furthermore, the studies …
Response Prediction of Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy in Gastro- Intestinal Cancer
Patients with gastric or colon cancer with peritoneal carcinomatosis will receive a biopsy of the tumor during their primary curative surgery. The operation is performed according to standard and includes resection of the primary tumor and any metastases and followed by HIPEC (Intraperitoneal hyperthermic chemoperfusion) according to the respective hospital …
Efficacy of Empirical Anti-Infective Therapy in Neutropenic Febrile Patients.
This single-arm, open-label clinical study evaluates the efficacy and safety of a standardized empirical anti-infective escalation protocol for patients with hematological malignancies complicated by febrile neutropenia. The treatment algorithm follows a sequential strategy: initial carbapenem monotherapy (2 days) → if ineffective, combination with vancomycin/linezolid (3 days) → if no response, …
Tissue Oximetry's Measurement in Cytoreductive Surgery With Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy
Tissue oximetry obtained from peripheral muscle measures the state of tissue oxygenation of various organs and, as already widely described in the literature, can be used to measure the state of kidney's tissue oxygenation. However, there is no evidence in the existing scientific literature on the use of muscle tissue …
Next-Generation-Sequencing Approach to Neutropenic Sepsis
The aim of this prospective, observational, non-interventional, multi-centre study of the diagnostic use of DISQVER in neutropenic patients with FN is to provide further evidence of the efficacy of an NGS-based approach for detecting bloodstream infection in neutropenic patients.
Register With Patients in Which Hyperthermic Intra-Peritoneal Chemotherapy (HIPEC) Was Performed
The purpose of this study is to register the follow-up data of patients who, because of a peritoneal surface malignancy, will undergo cytoreductive surgery and HIPEC.
