Primary Objective: Assess the incidence of wound infections in patients treated with venous stenting and AV fistula and Prevena negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT).Secondary Objective(s): Assess the incidence of lymph leakage in patients treated…
To demonstrate that percutaneous flexor tenotomy is an effective way to treat poorly healing ulcers in diabetic patients with hammertoes. We want to measure this effect by determining the healing time, percentage healed wounds and decrease in size…
The primary objective of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the AltaSeal® implants in providing bilateral mechanical occlusion of the fallopian tubes and in preventing pregnancy.Additional objectives are as follows:*…
The primary objective of this study is to investigate whether skeletal muscle glucose metabolism, perioperative glucose control and hemodynamics are affected by increasing physical activity in the weeks preceding surgery in patients identified with…
Objective: The main objective is to compare staples versus sutures for wound closure after Total Hip Arthroplasty.
To prove that lymph vessels in the legs can be visualized with methylene blue, so they can be spared during surgery, what possibly may lead to decreased postoperative lymph edema.Hypothesis: Methylene blue visualizes lymph vessels in the legs, so…
exclusion or demonstration of a diverticulum in patients undergoing a laparoscopic pull-through
The main objective of this study is to compare the efficacy, in skin antisepsis in forefoot surgery. Therefore we will compare povidine-jodine with chloride-hexidine both soluted in 70% alcohol.
The purpose of the proposed study is to investigate the anti-Xa levels of enoxaparin in patients after bariatric surgery and to correlate these with actual body weight.
The objective of this pilot study is to investigate wether:- Increased Hb levels prior to the operation can prevent blood transfusions preoperative, blood transfusions have a negative effect on the survival of cancer patients- Treatment with…
The objective of this study is to assess fatigue, physical activity, psychological wellbeing and quality of life in breast cancer patients during and shortly after adjuvant chemotherapy. We will study how often en how intense the symptoms occur. We…
To assess the incidence and severity of embolic events during spinal instrumentation surgery with intraoperative transesophageal echocardiography monitoring.
In The Netherlands 2% of women and 4% of men suffer from Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome (OSAS). NCPAP, the gold standard therapy for moderate to severe OSAS has been shown to reduce blood pressure in OSAS. NCPAP therapy is however hampered by…
The general accepted Hueter-Volkmann law describes the inverse relation between compressive forces on the physis and the rate of physeal growth. So compression decreases and tension increases longitudinal growth. The observed deformities in patients…
Primary objectives: To compare the dose volume histograms (DVHs) of the planning target volume (PTV) in prone and supine position, with 3D conformal and intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) planning in patients who receive pelvic irradiation To…
The primary objective of this second phase study is to estimate the occurrence of anastomotic leakage when the C-seal is used.Secondary objectives are:* Feasibility of applying the C-seal, especially considering the improved attachement to the…
The primary goal of this study to investigate the long term functional and radiological outcome of those patients that underwent a cervical laminectomy in the treatment of a cervical spondylotic myelopathy.The secondary goal is to determine those…
The pattern of BMD behind the press fit isoelastic acetabular component during the two years after implantation.
