Memory and Thinking Skills Workshop to Improve Cognition in Gynecologic and Breast Cancer Survivors...

Breast CarcinomaCancer Survivor2 more

The purpose of this study is to examine thinking abilities, mood, and quality of life in cancer survivors before and after an 8-week group-based memory and thinking skills workshop. Research participants will include people treated for cancer in the past. Researchers would like to know if there is a relationship between baseline performance on timed attention and memory tasks before receiving memory and thinking skills workshop designed to improve cognition, and performance on such tasks after the workshop.

Inflammatory Response and Tissue Fibrosis/ Lymphatico-venous Bypass

Breast CancerGenitourinary Cancer3 more

The goal of this clinical research study is to measure the amount of inflammatory proteins inside the body before and after lymphatico-venular bypass surgery. This will help doctors learn if anti-fibrotic or anti-inflammatory drugs/treatments given with the surgery can improve how well the surgery works.

Emerging From the Haze for Gynecologic Cancer Survivors

Gynecologic NeoplasmsCognition Disorders

At Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, the investigators have developed a novel curriculum for a 6-week psycho-educationally-based, cognitive behavioral program to help patients with subjective cognitive complaints after cancer treatment, titled Emerging from the Haze™ (Haze). Each series meets once a week for 2-2.5 hours for 6 weeks. The objective of this study is to quantify the impact of a trainee-taught Emerging from the Haze course on gynecologic cancer survivors' self-report of cognitive changes based on the change of FACT-Cog score.

Phenotypic Spectrum of CTCs in Tumors of the Female Reproductive System

Breast CancerOvarian Cancer1 more

The study evaluates the level and molecular profiles of different CTC populations as markers for predicting the risk of developing hematogenous metastases and the effectiveness of treatment in patients with tumors of the female reproductive system (breast cancer, endometrial cancer, and ovarian cancer). The primary objective are: To assess the presence and number of different populations of CTCs at different time points (before biopsy, before surgery, and after surgery). To assess the relationships of different CTCs populations prior to treatment initiation with the effects of neoadjuvant chemotherapy and the risks of recurrence and metastases. To assess the molecular profiles of different CTCs populations in the blood and in ascitic fluid. The secondary objective is to compare the multicolor flow cytometry results with data of ultrasound, CT and/or MRI, serum tumor markers, and immunohistochemical studies in patients with breast cancer, endometrial cancer and ovarian cancer

Bathing Bundle Regimen in Reducing Gynecological Surgical Site Infection in Patients Undergoing...

Malignant Female Reproductive System Neoplasm

This pilot clinical trial studies bathing bundle regimen in reducing gynecological surgical site infection in patients undergoing surgery. A bathing bundle regimen may reduce the risk of wound infection, extended length of hospital stay, readmission into the hospital, and the overall healthcare costs in patients undergoing surgery.

Functional Training for the Prevention of Deep Venous Thrombosis

Ankle MotionGynecologic Neoplasm2 more

This study aims to analyze the post-operative functional training on the prevention of deep venous thrombosis (DVT) in the patients who have accepted major surgeries for the gynecological malignancies. The functional training consists of: (1) active and passive ankle pump motions including flexion and extension, circumduction; (2) abdominal breathing training. The primary end is the incidence of DVT happened 30 days from surgery. The secondary ends include the patients satisfaction about functional training.

Effects of Tissue Sealers on Minor Laparoscopic Procedures Between Obstetrics and Gynecology Residents...

Benign Gynecologic Neoplasm

The kind of equipment used during laparoscopic surgery may have an effect on how quickly resident surgeons improve their skills. The effects of these technologies on various general and specialized procedures have been the subject of numerous research, all of which have produced comparable results in terms of efficacy and safety. Although a minimally invasive laparoscopy represents the gold standard method in over 70% of procedures for uterine and adnexal benign diseases, there is a paucity of evidence regarding the potential advantages or disadvantages of such kinds of devices in gynecologic laparoscopy. Based on this, the purpose of this study was to determine whether using a hemostatic surgical device affects how quickly gynecology residents learn to execute simple laparoscopic procedures and how well they perform surgically.

Limiting Chemotherapy Side Effects by Using Moxa

Breast NeoplasmsColorectal Neoplasms3 more

This study investigates whether it is feasible to teach cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy to self-administer daily moxibustion to reduce chemotherapy side effects. Moxibustion is a therapy used in traditional Chinese medicine that uses heat.

Does Simethicone Improve Operative Field in Gynecological Operations

Benign Gynecologic Neoplasm

Mechanical bowel preparation aims to decrease the volume fecal content in the colon, which thereby decreases the total colony count of bacteria, thus, decreasing peritoneal contamination in case of bowel injury, improving the access to the surgical field and facilitating intraoperative bowel manipulation

Augmented Pulse Pressure Variation to Predict Fluid Responsiveness in Open Laparotomy

Gynecologic NeoplasmsAbdominal Neoplasms

Pulse pressure variation (PPV) is a well-known and widely used dynamic preload indicator based on heart-lung interaction to predict fluid responsiveness. Generally, patients are considered to be fluid-responsive when the PPV value larger than 11-13%. However, several previous researches demonstrated that there is a zone of uncertainty (grey zone) in PPV. To predict fluid-responsiveness accurately in the patients with PPV within grey zone (9-13%), the investigators would evaluate the augmented PPV using augmented ventilation.
