Clinical Trials

The purpose of this study is to assess the impact of image resolution and 3D imaging on cognitive load (i.e. NASA-TLX) and laparoscopic skill performance in a simulated surgical skill environment (i.e., regular peg transfer vs. inverted peg transfer).

This study will evaluate the efficacy of ranolazine as compared with placebo when used as part of standard medical therapy in chronic angina subjects with incomplete revascularization post-PCI on the composite of ischemia-driven revascularization or ischemia-driven hospitalization without revascularization.

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate acute effectiveness and safety of minimally-invasive pericardiotomy in patients with Heart Failure (HFpEF).

The aim of this study is to identify factors that demonstrate efficiency while maintaining downstream revenue, increase surgical case yield out of clinic, and increase patient and provider satisfaction with telehealth.

Prospective registry comparing outcomes after laparoscopic treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease and hiatal hernia.

The purpose of this study is to compare the outcomes of patients who had standard laparoscopic port placement compared to non-standard port placement to determine any difference in occurrence of post-operative hernia and operative complications.

The purpose of this study is to compare the total fluid volume of using 5% human albumin and Lactated Ringer's in the perioperative cardiac surgical patient. Our hypothesis is that the individual total fluid volume will be less with 5% human albumin compared to Lactated Ringer's in the perioperative cardiac surgical patient.

The purpose of this study is to establish preliminary evidence of the effiectiveness, safety, and tolerability of LB1148 for the treatment of post-operative ileus and intra-abdominal adhesions in subjects undergoing elective bowel resection.

The purpose of this study is to assess the effectiveness and safety of D-PLEX administered concomitantly over a period of 90 days (3 months)with the standard of care (SOC) IV prophylactic antibiotic treatment vs. SOC in prevention of post-cardiac surgery sternal infections.

The purpose of this study is to compare the symptoms of patients who have a MIPG to the symptoms of patients who have a MITG.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate Endologix AFX endovascular abdominal aortic aneurism system with anatomical fixation against other approved endovascular systems with proximal fixation.

The purpose of this study is to assess the ability to successfully create numerous validated patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models from patient tumor specimens obtained at surgery/biopsy via the new Pathology/TRAG cryopreservation protocol, and to generate a large catalog and repertoire of previously unavailable histologically validated PDX.

The purpose of this study is to determine how well cisplatin and combination chemotherapy works in treating children and young adults with hepatoblastoma or liver cancer after surgery. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cisplatin, doxorubicin, fluorouracil, vincristine sulfate, carboplatin, etoposide, irinotecan, sorafenib, gemcitabine and oxaliplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving combination chemotherapy after surgery may kill more tumor cells.

Indication for use: "The Svelte DES is indicated for improving coronary luminal diameter in patients with symptomatic heart disease, including patients with non-ST elevation MI due to discrete de novo native coronary artery lesions. The treated lesion length should be less than the nominal stent length with a reference vessel diameter of 2.50 mm - 4.00 mm

The aims of this study will be collection of standard and routinely obtained data specifically in the preoperative evaluation, operative room, postoperative/hospitalization period, and long term follow from the electronic medical record.  Data collected will then be analyzed with standard scientific methods. 

The aims of this investigation are:

To assess the predictive value (and accuracy) of clinical and physiologic preoperative variables in identifying patients at risk for the development of new-onset atrial arrhythmia after cardiac surgery.

To assess the feasibility of a physiological risk model based on clinical and echocardiographic indexes to predict post-operative AF.

To assess the role of prophylactic agents in the prevention of new-onset postoperative POAF

To assess the economic impact of new-onset postoperative AF:

• Length of hospital stay (will be measured as fractions of days)

• Hospital cost (will be measured in standardized dollars)

• Resource utilization (will be measured by resource-based relative-value units)

To assess the outcome ...

The objective of this study is to evaluate the image quality and radiation dose of a CT angiography protocol (CTA) using tube potential selection and weight-based method.

The purpose of this study is to use a patient monitoring application that monitors physiological data, psychosocial data, and responses to survey questions collected during a one month pre and three and six month postoperative observation period.
