The effects of cross-education on loss of muscle strength and knee function after ACL reconstruction
Primary Objective:The aim is to compare the effects of rehab with standard care vs. standard care plus XED on loss of muscle strength and function in the operated limb at the end of phase I rehab after ACL reconstruction surgery.
Which technique, cementing or press-fit implanting, of the tibial and femoral stem of the Legion revision total knee prosthesis provides the most primary stability?
Primary:The primary objective of the study is to demonstrate the superiority of Fibrocaps plus gelatin sponge, as compared to gelatin sponge alone, for achieving hemostasis in subjects undergoing spine, liver, vascular or soft tissue surgery, when…
Objective: The main objectives of this study are technical and functional outcome of the hemiarthroplasty
The objective of this project is to assess the effects and costs of ultra-thin DSAEK vs. standard DSAEK in order to determine whether the new technique is effective and cost-effective over the standard technique.
1. Evaluate safety and clinical and angiographic efficacy of BTK revascularization with IN.PACT Amphirion* randomized to standard, uncoated PTA balloons2. Assess the clinical efficacy of BTK revascularization with IN.PACT Amphirion* compared to a…
Primary research questions To investigate whether the outcome after the randomized implantation of the Resolute Integrity® versus Promus Element® drug-eluting stent are similar, as assessed in a non-inferiority setting by comparing target-vessel…
Our study tries to identify the ideal sclerosant dosage for the ClariVein® system in order to occlude the GSV permanently. By choosing the lowest dose with the same anatomical success rate, we achieve a safe treatment which also gives us the…
Aim of the study is to compare the efficacy and safety of the use of a low vacuum constant drainage system (Palin®) with a high vacuum closed suction drainage system (Medinorm S-400®) after chest wall masculinization in female-to-male transgenders.
Primary objective: To determine the reduction of number of patients who receive blood transfusion perioperatively in the group pre-treated with erythropoietin and iron supplement compared to the control patients.
To assess if preoxygenation with 100% O2 or preoxygenation with 100% O2 and PEEP are different with respect to the development of atelectasis as determined by lung computed tomography.
The aim of this study is to accelerate recovery after liver surgery by enhancing intestinal passage through the preoperative use of Movicol®.
Primary goal: mean linear wear of the cross-linked polyethylene F.A.L. cup compared to the mean linear wear of the standard polyethylene F.A.L. cup at 5 years postoperatively. Secondary goals:1. mean linear wear (millimeters/year) at 1 year, 3 years…
To define the optimum laparoscopic anti-reflux operation, ensuring long-term reflux control with minimal postoperative dysphagia and gas-related symptoms.
Primary Objective: the objective of this study is to determine whether the application topical TA into the pericardial cavity just before sternal closure reduces the 12 hours post-operative blood loss by 25% after cardiac surgery patients on…
Objective: The primary objective is to evaluate whether distal LRYGB (DLRYGB) is superior in terms of %EWL after one year follow-up compared to standard LRYGB (LRYGB). Secondary objectives are to evaluate effect on quality-of-life (QOL), cure /…
To assess whether the implementation of a deep neuromuscular block (NMB) (PTC 1-2) combined with induction of relative hypocapnia creates optimal surgical conditions as measured by the surgeon (using the 5-point Leiden surgical rating scale) versus…
• To evaluate short-term (directly after training) and long-term (12 months) effects of cognitive rehabilitation on (working)memory, attention, concentration, and quality of life; measured by neuropsychological assessments, and reports by parents…
The current study evaluates the OrthoSensor and investigates whether the combination of the Vanguard® Knee System with the OrthoSensor results in a faster recovery and better clinical outcomes during short follow up compared to conventional TKA (…
The objective of this study is to determine the surplus value of mental imagery on myo-electric prosthesis training Here fore we plan to execute two experiments. The goal of the first experiment is to test if intermanual transfer effects of able-…
