The purpose of this study is to determine the need for thromboprofylaxis in patients being treated in a below-knee plaster cast after trauma of a lower extremity and if there is, to assess if both of the two tested prophylactic treatments are suited…
To investigate whether sustained trough levels of IFX can be achieved using IFX trough level measurements and adjustment of dosing based upon these levels by means of two different standardized algorithms in comparison with *standard of care* IFX…
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…
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.
To perform a pre-study to assess the feasibility of DE-MRI to assess lesion size, transmurality and completeness of pulmonary vein isolation. The study will be performed to determine if and how DE-MRI can be used in a larger subsequent multicentre…
Primary:Is the degree of pupildilation, achieved after administrating a 4.5 microliter microdrop tropicamide 0.5% equivalent to the pupildilation after a regular 30 microliter eydrop tropicamide 0.5% in healthy volunteers?Secondary: Is there a…
The primary objective is to assess the difference in absence of binary restenosis rate of endovascular treatment of intermediate and long lesions of the superficial femoral artery with the Legflow® PEB and nitinol stent, when compared to uncoated…
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…
1. To study the effect of different target PaO2's on myocardial damage, hemodynamics, microcirculation and organ perfusion in CABG patients.2. To study underlying mechanisms of hyperoxia by determining differences in oxidative stress response…
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…
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…
The purpose of the trial is to compare the safety and effectiveness of bio-active-stent (BAS; Optimax*) and everolimus-eluting stent (EES; Synergy*) in patients presenting with acute coronary syndrome
The primary objective of this study is to assess the neointimal healing score (as evaluated by intra-coronary OFDI) in patients with STEMI and treated with Abbott Vascular ABSORB everolimus eluting bioresorbable vascular scaffold (BVS) at 6 months…
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of infliximab dose reduction guided by serial trough level measurements, compared to treatment as usual (no dose reduction), in Crohn*s disease patients who are in stable remission with infliximab maintenance…
To investigate whether the use of low pressure pneumoperitoneum during laparoscopic donor nephrectomy improves the quality-of-recovery during the early post-operative phase as compared to the use of standard pressure pneumoperitoneum.
Research proposalTo find out what is the best surgical procedure for patients with conservative therapy resistent calcifying tendinitis of the shoulder. Objectives Our main objective is to compare the three different surgical procedures for the…
To investigate whether the use of deep neuromuscular block improves surgical conditions in low pressure laparoscopic donor nephrectomy
This is a post-marketing study to further assess the safety and efficacy of the InSpace* device implantation in comparison to surgical repair of full thickness MRCT . The efficacy will be assessed by comparing the pre- and post- operative shoulder…
The primary objective of this study is to determine the influence of intra-operative use of remifentanil versus fentanyl on the percentage of patients with chronic thoracic pain one year after cardiac surgery. The secondary objectives are to…
To evaluate different cryoenergy application times using absence of DC as a surrogate for permanent PV isolation to establish optimal duration for formation of contiguous lesions and prevention of right PNP and esophageal thermal lesions during…
