Bilirubin measurement in serum in more specific and sensitiver than the measurement of transcutaneous bilirubin.
Helium can be safely used in patients admitted to the ICU after resuscitation for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest.
First we have to define its association with current objective inflammatory parameters and its quality to sense small (subclinical) changes in a short treatment period. If this quality exists, than the Handscan might be a new tool for objective and…
The purpose of this study is to evaluate toxicity and oncologic outcomes of MRI-guided focal salvage high-dose-rate brachytherapy (HDR-BT). In earlier studies, it was shown that focal salvage HDR-BT is feasible and results regarding toxicity are…
Tailoring elastic compression therapy to individual patients needs will not lead to an increased incidence of the post thrombotic syndrome, substantial costs will be saved and the quality of life of individual patients will improve.
Intraoperative verification of paranasal sinus malignancy resection with cone-beam computed tomography will lead to a higher rate of radical resection
A structured diagnostic-therapeutic strategy to detect and treat previously unrecognized (or unestablished) heart failure in primary care will improve the quality of care, the quality of life, and eventually the prognosis of these patients.
LHB tenotomy does not lead to inferior functional results as compared to LHB tenodesis when performed in conjunction with an arthroscopic repair of a moderately sized rotator cuff (supraspinatus/infraspinatus tendon) tear in patients 50 years or…
The degree of vulnerability (fragility) negatively impacts self-care, quality of life and their mutual influences in elderly patients with chronic heart failure, and the relationship with hospital (re) admission within one year.
This study is exploratory and no formal hypothesis is set.
It is generally accepted that the early-postoperative flow increase is indicative for successful maturation of an autologous arteriovenous fistula. Our hypothesis is that a patient-specific computer simulation model should be able to predict this…
It is hypothesized that the benefits of treating to target in early RA and UA, which were evident after 5 (IMPROVED study) and 10 (BeSt study) years as limited joint damage progression, good functional ability and (in BeSt) normalized survival at…
We hypothesize that the use of a modified CellSearch enrichment method will specifically detect MPM tumor cells in the pleural effusion and peripheral blood of patients with MPM
In 2011, thirty-four major liver resections (resection ≥3 segments) were performed in the AMC. The outcome of these hemihepatectomies has improved in the last years because of better surgical techniques and postoperative care. Nevertheless, there is…
It has been demonstrated that VATS is a good alternative treatment option for chest drainage in children with parapneumonic effusion. Clinical improvement even seems to occur faster after VATS, indicating that when VATS is performed in an early…
The aim of this study is to assess long term scar quality of deep dermal burns after debridement with hydrosurgical excision versus conventional tangential excision.
"The objective of this study is to evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of a nursing nutrition intervention (Nurses for Food) on malnutrition in hospital. The intervention will be developed according to the Britisch Medical Research…
The YEARS algorithm is non-inferior to management by CTPA with regard to 3-month recurrent VTE rates and will reduce the rate of unnecessary CTPA in patients with clinically suspected PE and active malignancy.
We hypothesize that anxiety symptoms worsen after follow-up imaging compared to patients baseline anxiety levels.
Erythromycin significantly increase the pharmacokinetic exposure of palbociclib
