Knee surgeries are associated with severe postoperative pain. Blocking the femoral nerve (or saphenous nerve) in the adductor canal is increasingly used for knee analgesia. It carries potential benefits that encourage anesthesiologists to do it. It has a motor sparing property. Injection of local anesthetics in this lengthy canal that …
COVID-19 is a disease with high rate of morbidity if symptomatic. There is a great need of treatments to decrease the severity. The vast majority of patients needing intensive care are men, and this may be due to the androgens, either by regulation of TMPRSS2, necessary for virus internalization, or …
Twelve adults with ALS will participate in a study involving four 3-week cycles of progressive respiratory muscle training (RMT). The investigators will measure maximum inspiratory pressure (MIP) and maximum expiratory pressure (MEP) weekly. The investigators will obtain the majority of measurements of MIP and MEP during web-based telehealth visits. Participants …
Wearable tele-rehabilitation technology allows for the efficient provision of rehabilitation services from a distance, facilitating tele-management of many disorders. The proposed research will develop and validate a set of mechanically compliant, easy-to-use, and inexpensive wearable tele-monitoring systems, for future use in the rehabilitation of swallowing disorders (dysphagia). The hypothesis is …
Due to discontinuation of the Codman C3000 pump, an alternate device is necessary to continue serving patients in need of hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy. This study aims to test the safety of hepatic artery infusion pump placement, a standard surgical procedure, and intraarterial chemotherapy initiation with the standard medication floxuridine …
The overall aim of the project is to develop a new method for treatment of untreatable severe hoarseness due to vocal fold scarring by local injection of autologous mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC). At present there is no lasting effective treatment for this condition which results in personal suffering, and often …
This is a Phase 2, randomized, double-blind, active-controlled, dose-escalation study evaluating the safety, pharmacokinetics, efficacy, and pharmacodynamics of ALX006, an extended-release bupivacaine formulation, administered as a single-dose sciatic nerve block in the popliteal fossa in adult subjects undergoing primary unilateral bunionectomy. Approximately 60 subjects will be enrolled across 3 sequential …
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of a novel psychological intervention for adult ADHD through a randomized controlled trial. Participants will be randomized to receive either a face-to-face manualized short psychological intervention, SAINT, or corresponding self-help material with limited access to therapist support. The main objective …
The evidence on the consumption of 100% orange juice in people with type 2 diabetes is highly variable and largely out-of-date, with a few studies reporting acute negative glycaemic effects when 100% orange juice is drunk with or without a meal. The aim of the project is to study the …
The effect of driving pressure (DP)-guided positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP) on early postoperative pulmonary ventilation is to be determined for patients undergoing neurosurgery. Patients are recruited to receive volume controlled ventilation with either a fixed PEEP (5cmH2O) or DP titrated PEEP. Early postoperative regional distribution of lung ventilation, expressed …
