Clinical Trials

The purpose of this study is to get surgeon feedback on the use of Google Glass and the MedCyclops software during surgery.

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety of Ultrasound-guided Tenotomy (USGT) by describing the rate and types of USGT-related complications at the Achilles, and to demonstrate the feasibility of an RCT (randomized control trial) at each site by measuring the patient volume per year treated with USGT for Achilles Tendinopathy (AT), and capture rate utilizing a standardized ultrasound imaging protocol for AT.

The research is about the post-procedure outcomes and is not about the ultrasound device or the ultrasound-guided tenotomy procedure.

The aims of this study are to assess the clinical efficiency of utilization of a dual-plane simultaneous view ultrasound probe (Butterfly iQ+; Butterfly Network, Inc.) during arterial catheter placement in the operating room. Outcome metrics to include: number of attempts for successful cannulation, amount of time to complete procedure, percent of failed attempts / total attempts, and to assess end-user response to use of dual-plane probe via subjective feedback.

The purpose of this study is to test the feasibility of NanoString digital spatial profiling (DSP) and RNAscope™ on prospectively acquired HDLN tissue samples with EUS-FNB in patients with unresectable perihilar CCA undergoing liver transplant (LT) evaluation.

The purpose of this study is to document the primary investigator’s clinical experience performing Ultrasound Guided Carpal Tunnel Release (USCTR) in the clinic procedure room setting through retrospective and prospective analysis of these now routinely collected clinical outcomes. 

The purpose of this study is to compare the incisionless thread carpal tunnel release with the standard mini-open carpal tunnel release (standard of care) in patients with bilateral carpal tunnel syndrome.
