Pediatric Caudal Injection Volume on Optic Nerve Sheath Diameter and Cerebral Oxygenation
Caudal anesthesia is a commonly used neuraxial anesthesia method for children. Injection of a certain volume of fluid into the epidural space for cauda anesthesia may push some cerebrospinal fluid towards the head, which may lead to mild increase of pressures inside the head. Such mild changes are compensated well …
Comparison of Diuretic Effect With Furosemide Alone Versus the Combination of Furosemide and Albumin in Cirrhotic Patients
A common complication of the progression of cirrhosis is fluid retention (ascites, edema, or pleural effusion). Loop diuretics are the treatment of choice for fluid retention in cirrhotic patients; however, many of these patients demonstrate diuretic resistance, requiring higher doses of the diuretics to achieve adequate diuresis. The cause of …
Dexmedetomidine in TAP Block for Inguinal Hernia Repair
This prospective double-blind randomized study will aim at evaluating the short- and long-term postoperative analgesic efficacy of the ultrasound-guided transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block with a combination of local anesthetic and dexmedetomidine in inguinal hernia repair under general anesthesia
Full Metall Jacket Multilevel Segment
Hypothesis: "Total" endovascular revascularization of a multistory lesion of the iliac-femoral-popliteal segment is safer and a better quality of life is achieved in comparison with hybrid intervention. The lack of damage to the skin avoids complications in the postoperative and remote periods of observation, thereby improving the quality of life
Liberal vs. Restricted Post-discharge Opioid Prescribing Following Midurethral Sling
The specific objective of this proposal is to evaluate pain and opioid use following a midurethral sling (MUS) under two different opioid prescribing schemes. The central hypothesis is that, in spite of the fact that opioids are often routinely prescribed by many surgeons following this procedure, most patients do not …
Ultrasound Features of Dupuytren's Disease
Dupuytren's disease (DD) is a benign and progressive condition that affects the palmar aponeurosis with a very high global incidence. It can result in significant loss of hand function or can inhibit an individual's daily activities or work. Current diagnostics rely on Range Of Motion (ROM) measurements and clinical expertise, …
Post-surgical Liquid Biopsy-guided Treatment of Stage III and High-risk Stage II Colon Cancer Patients: the PEGASUS Trial
PEGASUS is a prospective multi-centric study designed to prove the feasibility of using liquid biopsy to guide the post-surgical and post-adjuvant clinical management in 140 microsatellite stable Stage-III and T4N0 Stage-II colon cancer patients.
SBRT Dose Escalation for Reirradiation of Inoperable Lung Lesions
Prospective phase I study to evaluate the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of SBRT for thoracic re-irradiation. Dose limiting toxicity will be pneumonitis G3. The potential advantage of the dose escalation planned in this study is the delivery of an ablative dose to radically treat patients with inoperable local relapse, without …
Reinforced PTFE Meshes Versus Customized Titanium Meshes
The objective of this study is to compare two surgical techniques for the treatment of the maxillary and mandibular bone atrophies.. Therefore, the main purpose is to compare the (i) the percentage of post-operative complications (ii) the three-dimensional bone gain with customized titanium meshes (test group - the medical device …
Real-Time Monitoring of Chemotherapy Side-Effects in Patients With Gastrointestinal Cancers RT-CAMSS Study
This trial tests new methods and materials for the real-time chemotherapy-associated side effects monitoring support system (RT-CAMSS) in patients with gastrointestinal cancers undergoing chemotherapy. RT-CAMSS is a monitoring support system that provides patients with evidence-based information and side-effect management and coping skills, emotional support and validation, and proactive care via …
