Active clinical trials for "Postoperative Complications"

This study examines performing pilonidal sinus surgery minimal invasively with videoendoscopic approach.

To standardize the surgery for advanced right hemi colon cancer with laparoscopy and investigate whether dorsal and medial hybrid approach could improve disease-free survival in patients with right colon cancer, compared with traditional medial-to-lateral approach in laparoscopic righ hemicolectomy.

This is a randomized controlled clinical trial which investigates whether goal directed fluid therapy( GDT ) would show the evidence of benefit from GDT in terms of lactate kinetics then may reduce postoperative complications in patients undergoing spine surgery, especially in prone positions.

This prospective cohort study of patients undergoing colorectal surgery positioned conventionally with shoulder braces was performed. After initial results the implementation of the Pink Pad ® took place in order to compare the two groups. This study favours Pink Pad over conventional positioning concerning postoperative neuropathy.

The aim of this research project is to evaluate whether olfactory identification impairment is a reliable predictor of preoperative frailty and of postoperative complications and mortality in a population of older patients scheduled for elective surgery. The investigators will measure preoperative olfactory identification function and evaluate whether olfactory impairment predicts frailty, using the Edmonton Frail Scale and handgrip strength. The investigators will analyze whether preoperative olfactory impairment predicts postoperative complications and mortality.

The optimalisation of the health status of patients scheduled for major surgery has been considered to be the most important point of perioperative care, and nutritional intervention has been perceived a key point of that intervention. Immunomodulating diets were thought to reduce cmplications, hoever recent studies put that opnion in doubt. This study was designed to assess the actual clinical significance of oral immunonutrition.

Patients after the surgical removal of axillary lymphnodes suffers from prolonged fluid collections. The aim of the study is to assess the impact of oral immunonutrition and high-protein diets on the reduction of fluid collection.

The primary aim of this study is to compare mean arterial pressure (MAP) and cardiac index (CI) based intraoperative hemodynamic management in terms of postoperative high sensitive troponin elevation. The hypothesis of the study is that there will be at least 5ng/L difference between the two groups in terms of troponin elevation occurring in the postoperative period. When power analysis was performed with this primary output, it was calculated that while alpha was 0.05 beta 0.2, 42 patients in each group, a total of 84 patients were required.

The objective of this study is to assess if not requiring patients to spontaneous void prior to discharge from the post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) will results in shorter lengths of stay in the post-anesthesia care unit without increasing hospital readmissions or emergency room visits.

This study aims to evaluate the quality of care provided by a home-based teleheath program as a safe and acceptable alternative to an in-person office visit as determined by satisfaction with the program and the amount of further medical management required by the patients.
