The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of ARTISS compared with our standard care on total volume of donor site seroma after harvesting a LD in immediate breast reconstruction. Seroma is diagnosed, when >= 20 mL can be punctuated…
The main objective of this study is to compare the femur tunnel positioning after AMP, TLS and TT reconstruction techniques. We will also look at the relation between tunnel positioning and tunnel widening.
The purpose of the activity and heart rate monitor is to measure and track movement (acceleration) and heartbeat, and derive a number of health-related parameters, which can serve as basis for behavioral change programs leading to e.g. a healthier,…
The following hypotheses will be examined: a. patients with multiple sclerosis who become cognitively impaired may experience an increase in pain experience (due to white matter lesions) b. hyperesthesia is known to be predictive of central…
We hypothesize that liraglutide treatment, initiated before cardiac surgery, is effective in lowering the number of patients needing perioperative insulin adjustments and reducing the total amount of insulin needed in the perioperative period when…
This study aims to implement and evaluate an advance care planning (ACP) intervention for elderly nursing home patients with a limited life expectancy. The intervention consists of ACP discussions integrated with a structured multidisciplinary…
We hypothesize that instillation of a radiopaque hydrogel before full thickness closure of the lumpectomy cavity will reduce inter-observer variability during target definition and improve patient setup accuracy for boost or partial breast…
Implementation of UCR as diagnostic marker for fetal compromise in SGA improves long-term neurodevelopmental outcome by identifying fetuses with fetal growth restriction (FGR) within the SGA group who will benefit from earlier delivery, improving…
The objective is to assess whether myocardial microvascular perfusion and myocardial energy metabolism is impaired in HFpEF patients. Additionally we will evaluate whether endothelial dysfunction is associated with diminished myocardial perfusion (e…
1. Leadless Pacemaker (LP) therapy is superior to current standard-of-care (SOC) with regard to procedure-related complications in Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVI) patients who develop conduction abnomalies (CA). 2. LP therapy reduces…
Common colds have a significant impact on individuals, health care and economy. Functional food ingredients can reduce incidence, duration and severity of common respiratory tract infections in healthy elderly and adults. We hypothesize that test…
The brace is able to restrict the movement that pose a risk for hip displacement after total hip replacement surgery
We hypothesize that percutaneous edge-to-edge mitral valve repair using MitraClip reduces left ventricular end diastolic volume and improves myocardial perfusion.
The majority of patients admitted outside a dedicated Burn Center will have a maximum of 10% Total Body Surface Area burned.
By providing more intensive social care to highly vulnerable pregnant women, the mother will be more self-sufficient, experiences less stress and the child will develop better, compared to highly vulnerable pregnant women receiving normal social…
Primary hypothesis: 1. Women with an unfavourable profile will discontinue the IVF/IVF-ICSI treatment earlier or more often than couples who were not tested Secondary hypothesis: 2. Women with a favourable profile will tend to continue IVF/IVF-ICSI…
The succes of dental implants placed in the augmented maxillary sinus by using a bovine bone mineral (BBM) with some locally harvested AB chips, is superior to, implants placed in augmented sinuses with solely autogenous bone.
The standardized hip arthroscopy procedure is a safe method to significantly improve both functional outcome and quality of life in patients with femoroacetabular impingement or acetabulum labrum tears or damage.
The deployment of the pediatric nurse as linking pin between pediatrics and the social domain, shortens the duration of referral to appropriate support for children with (psycho)social problems and it increases the satisfaction of parents and…
