Impact of Obsidian ASG on Anastomotic Healing
The use of regenerative medicine in colorectal surgery constitutes an entirely new therapeutic principle. The aim of this new therapeutic approach is to reduce the anastomotic leak rate and minimise morbidity and mortality. The literature identifies the leak rate for colorectal operations as 3-39%.
Height-based Formula for Predicting the Insertion Depth of Left-sided Double and the Role of Fiberoptic Bronchoscopy
The use of height based formula to predict insertion depth of left-sided double lumen tube in thoracic surgery is now well established. The investigators have developed a formula to be used and published recently. The investigators verified the formula with the use of FOB. This observational study we are going …
Factors Influencing the Risk of Surgical Site Infections and Wound Complications in Operatively Treated Ankle Fractures in the Elderly
This study is to analyse risk factors for wound complications or surgical site infections and to analyse whether risk factors for wound complications or surgical site infections are also factors for other complications. Based on the data from this study it will be investigated whether a risk score can be …
Prosthetic Valve and Graft Endocarditis With Mycobacterium Chimaera
Mycobacterium chimaera infections have occurred in post-cardiac surgery patients in association with contaminated cardiac bypass heater-cooler devices. So far optimal therapeutical concepts are not clear. At the University Hospital Basel Mycobacterium chimaera- infected protheses are replaced to decrease pathogenic burden and to support antibiotic long- term treatment. This study is …
Open Versus Closed Wedge Distal Femoral Varus Osteotomy for the Valgus Knee. Indications Clinical and Radiological Outcome
This study is to analyze the indications of the two most popular techniques of distal femoral osteotomy (DFO) performed in patients with valgus malalignment and symptomatic degenerative changes in the lateral compartment of the knee and to evaluate the clinical and radiological outcome of a case series of patients who …
Prevention of Endotracheal Tube Migration by Cuff Palpation During Robotic Surgical Procedure
After intubation, the endotracheal tube was finally fixed after palpating endotracheal cuff at three sites (just below the cricoid cartilage, at suprasternal level and just below suprasternal notch). Fibre optic bronchoscopy will be done to find distance between tip of endotracheal tube and carina. This distance will be measured repeatedly, …
Assessment of Gait Parameters and Their Impact on Postoperative Recovery in Patients With Lumbar Spinal Stenosis: a Feasibility Study
The first aim is to evaluate the integration's feasibility of a research project linked to the walking parameters into the clinical process pre and postoperative for patient with lumbar spinal stenosis who consult in neurosurgery. The second objective is to observe the evolution of walking parameters during the surgery process …
Interruptions Teamwork Stress and Patient Outcomes in the Operating Room
The operating theatre (OR) in hospitals is a highly complex working environment and can withstand a variety of stresses and strains for the surgical team. So-called "Flow Disruption Events" (FDs) with a potential risk to patient safety occur very often. The aim of the planned study project is to determine …
Kinematic- Versus Ligament-balanced Mechanical Alignment in TKA
A promising new approach in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) for severe osteoarthritis of the knee joint is the the kinematic aligned procedure (KA). This technique provides prosthesis-positioning based on natural and individual axes of movement. Although first series have shown satisfying results, further verification by prospective studies and final meta-analyses …
Quality of Life and Function of Patients With Pelvic Tumors After Undergoing Hemipelvectomy
This study aims to determine the functional outcomes of patients who underwent internal hemipelvectomy with or without reconstruction or external hemipelvectomy for pelvic tumors. Learning about the outcomes of these patients may help researchers determine the long-term effects of different types of hemipelvectomy procedures and may help improve quality of …
