Left Ventricular Global Longitudinal Strain and Postoperative Myocardial Injury
Postoperative ComplicationsTo use left ventricular global longitudinal strain as a means of monitoring myocardial exercise function during anaesthesia in patients with coronary artery disease, to explore the association with the occurrence of postoperative myocardial injury, and to perform a predictive study of postoperative myocardial injury. The study was designed according to a prospective follow-up cohort.
Does Electromyography Improve Precision and Reliability of Neuromuscular Monitoring in Paediatric...
Neuromuscular BlockadeResidual1 moreNeuromuscular monitoring is used as a standard surveillance method of neuromuscular function to ensure full recovery at the end of anaesthesia. The currently available devices properly provide respective information in adults but not in children. Furthermore, response to neuromuscular blocking agents differs between adults and children due to age-related differences in body composition, physiological function, and acetylcholine receptor density. Recently, electromyographic (EMG) technologies to monitor neuromuscular function were increasingly developed including disposables for nerve stimulation and measurement of the compound muscle action potential in children. However, it is still unclear whether the precision and reliability of these devices is superior to the currently available neuromuscular monitoring for children based on kinemyography (KMG). The ETCETERA study will test the hypothesis that neither EMG nor KMG provides inferior train-of-four readings to the respective reference method in infants and children below five years.
Paresthesia in Hand and Antebrachium Following CardiacSurgery: Incidence, Risk Factors and Clinical...
ParesthesiaPeri-operative Injury2 moreTo describe the incidence and severity of Paresthesia in Hand and Antebrachium in patients that have undergone CardiacSurgery.
Relationship Between Prophylactic Drainage and Postoperative Complications (PPOI) in Crohn's Patients...
Crohn's DiseaseFor patients with Crohn's diseases,whether prophylactic abdominal drainage is necessary need further exploration. the present study is focusing on the necessity of prophylactic abdominal drainage in CD patients after surgery.
Evaluation of the Sarcopenia in Hepatobiliary Surgery
SarcopeniaHepatobiliary Disease2 moreThe sarcopenia is defined as a loss of muscle mass and a loss of muscle function ( strength or performance). Some studies showed that the sarcopenia increase the postoperative complications and the overall survival in abdominal surgery. But the sarcopenia is not evaluated in the Hepatobiliary surgery. This prospective, monconcentrique study aim to evaluate the prevalence of sarcopenia, and its associated morbimortality in hepatobiliary surgery for malignant or benign tumors.
Intraoperative Monitoring to Predict Postoperative Complications After Thyroidectomy
Endocrine Procedural ComplicationsThyroid2 moreThe goal of this study is to evaluate the role of intraoperative continous and intermittent neuromonitoring and intraoperative parathormone (PTH) to predict postoperative nerve morbidity and hypocalcemia.
Web-based International Register of Emergency Surgery and Trauma
Acute AppendicitisAcute Cholecystitis13 moreThe WIRES-T project (Web-based International Registry of Emergency General Surgery and Trauma) has been set up to allow to all the EGS (Emergency General Surgery) and Trauma surgeons to register their activity and to obtain a worldwide register of traumatic and non traumatic surgical emergencies. This will give the opportunity to evaluate results on a macro-data basis and to give index allowing stratifying, evaluating and improving the outcomes.
Integrating Data, Algorithms and Clinical Reasoning for Surgical Risk Assessment
Postoperative ComplicationsBrief Summary: The goal of this study is to implement and test an intelligent perioperative system (IPS) that in real-time predicts risk for postoperative complications using routine clinical data collected in electronic health records. The accuracy of computer-generated risk scores will be compared to physician's risk scores for the same patients. Physicians will be also asked to provide the opinion regarding the computer-generated risk scores using interactive interface with the program. The information regarding the risk scores performance will be collected during the two 6-month periods. The accuracy of IPS and physicians will be compared at the end at those two time periods.
Intraoperative Cerebral and Renal Tissue Oxygen Saturation and Pediatric Living Donor Liver Transplantation...
Pediatric Liver TransplantationDevelopmental Delay2 moreThis rSO2 study is a prospective clinical study. The purpose of the rSO2 study is to investigate whether there is a correlation between the intraoperative cerebral and renal tissue oxygen saturation and the incidence of developmental and socioemotional delay after living donor liver transplantation for children. This study will also investigate whether intraoperative cerebral and renal tissue oxygen saturation are related to postoperative complications.
NOACs in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery: Impact on Post-operative Complications
SurgeryOral5 moreAims: To investigate the incidence of bleeding complications during oral surgical procedures in patients medicated with DOACs. To investigate the perioperative and postoperative bleeding volume during oral surgical procedures in patients medicated with DOACs. To examine whether increased perioperative bleeding volume complicates the planned intervention, thereby prolonging the operation time. Previous studies have shown that the incidence of healthcare-consuming bleeding complications following oral surgical procedures in patients who are prescribed warfarin is approximately 4% (9). To investigate whether the incidence is higher or lower by the intake of DOAC it is considered to be sufficient with 100 patients in each group. The groups consist of patients who are prescribed warfarin, DOACs, as well as a control group. Hypothetical outcomes: The incidence of bleeding complications and the perioperative and postoperative bleeding volume during oral surgical procedures in patients medicated with DOACs are higher compared to patients medicated with warfarin and patients taking no anticoagulants. Increased perioperative bleeding volume complicates the planned intervention, thereby prolonging the operation time. Clinical relevance: The study will serve as a basis for the development of treatment guidelines for patients who medicate with DOACs. If it turns out that the oral surgery procedure presents no increased risk of complications and that the bleeding volume does not complicate the surgery significantly, it may be recommended that patients who medicate with DOACs whom are in need of oral surgical procedures seek ordinary dental care.
