Active clinical trials for "Postoperative Complications"

The method of arranging and restoring the position of the small intestine under laparoscopy is used to determine whether it can promote the recovery of intestinal function after colorectal surgery.

The current study hypothesizes that the use of Intravenous intensive insulin therapy (IV-IIT) may be beneficial than IV conventional insulin therapy (IV-CIT) for improving the outcome of non-diabetic surgical patients had postoperative (PO) stress hyperglycemia (PSH).

The investigators propose a pilot trial to (1) proof the concept that defining the intraoperative mean arterial pressure (MAP) intervention threshold based on the mean nighttime MAP (assessed using preoperative automated blood pressure monitoring) results in clinically relevant (mean nighttime MAP ± 10 mmHg) different target values compared with using an absolute population-derived MAP intervention threshold of 65 mmHg (primary endpoint); (2) investigate if a personalized perioperative blood pressure management is feasibly in multi-center studies, especially if the target values can be sufficiently achieved (secondary endpoint); (3) study the impact of personalized perioperative blood pressure management on the incidence of myocardial injury after non-cardiac surgery (MINS) (exploratory endpoint); (4) study the impact of personalized perioperative blood pressure management on the incidence of acute kidney injury within the first three postoperative days according to the KDIGO (Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes) definition without oliguric criteria (exploratory endpoint).

Iron deficiency is a common state during the perioperative period. Data from literature do not allow us to conclude on how perioperative iron deficiency influences postoperative infections occurrence. This prospective observational study aims to assessed the postoperative infections incidence according to the preoperative iron-stock status.

This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind trial, comparing clinical outcomes after the administration of high-dose dexamethasone versus placebo in patients undergoing heart surgery with the use of cardiopulmonary bypass. The primary endpoint is the occurrence of major complications (including all-cause mortality, myocardial infarction, stroke, renal failure, and prolonged mechanical ventilation) in the first 30 days after surgery.

The investigators compared between dexamethasone and dexmedetomidine when added to levobupivacaine in the quality and duration of ultrasound-guided interscalene block during shoulder arthroscopy.

We are conducting a randomized controlled trial the use of rib raising for post-operative ileus. Rib raising is an osteopathic manipulative technique (OMT). We will recruit all patients undergoing major abdominal surgery and once they have been enrolled, we will randomize them to receive daily rib raising or a control technique where we place hands on the back but do not apply any pressure. In preliminary studies, Rib raising has been shown to reduce post-operative ileus and hospital length of stay by up to 50%.

The aim of this research project is to find out whether a personalized definition of the lower blood pressure threshold based on the individual blood pressure profile by means of preoperative 24-hour blood pressure measurement can reduce organ damage (brain, kidney, heart) through reduced blood flow during surgery.

The purpose of the study is to assess the optimal fraction of inspired oxygen (0.5 or 1) for extubation or removal of a supraglottic airway device after general anesthesia.

In recent years, with the continuous development of minimally invasive techniques, laparoscopic pancreatic surgery has also been widely used. Although the postoperative mortality rate of laparoscopic pancreatic surgery has been decreasing as the technology continues to improve and mature, the complication rate reported varies widely among centers.The definition and grading criteria of ISGPS on postoperative complications of pancreatic surgery are mostly proposed based on open pancreatic surgery, and most of the data of the later related studies are also for open pancreatic surgery, while the applicability of the definition and grading criteria in laparoscopic pancreatic surgery is still lacking in systematic The study The main purpose of this study is to investigate the applicability of the ISGPS definition and grading criteria for pancreatic fistula, postoperative bleeding and delayed gastric emptying in laparoscopic pancreatic surgery.
