Primary Objective To describe how patients experience the first eight weeks after shoulder arthroplasty, regarding pain and pain medication, shoulder function and quality of life. To determine the direct effect of patients' expectations on…
This multicentre randomised controlled trial aims to investigate whether PoCUS can be used as an adjunct to improve first attempt success rate in closed reductions of displaced distal radial fractures in adults in the ED.
The primary aim of this split-mouth randomized clinical trial is to assess accuracy of bracket positioning of a fully digital IDB workflow compared to a DBB workflow, with IDB bracket planning serving as reference for both methods. The secondary…
PENG block with phenol provides better pain relieve and mobility, and therefore quality of life, compared to current pain relieve strategies in patients with a hipfracture who are not eligible for surgery
Active surveillance is non-inferior to surgery in patients with oesophageal cancer showing complete clinical response after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy.
Most patients undergoing spine surgery with pedicle screw instrumentation will experience insufficient pain relief in the first three days after surgery, whereafter postoperative pain can be managed with conventional, non-opioid analgesics in most…
To identify whether a short axis approach (SAA) or a long axis approach (LAA) to ultrasound guided peripheral cannulation is superior when performed by ED nurses without prior ultrasound experience.
In patients diagnosed with a hip fracture who also have acute myocardial injury on presentation to hospital, is accelerated surgery superior to standard care for the primary outcome of death at 90 days after randomization?
The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of two distalisation techniques of a gastric bypass in revisional surgery with standardised limb lengths in total weight loss (TWL) and the need for treatment for protein calorie malnutrition (PCM…
Does isolated cup revision surgery or liner exchange through the anterior approach result in increased functional status and higher patient satisfaction than through the posterolateral approach?
The objectives of the BREHAB pilot study include both process and research objectives. Analysis of the process objectives will enable the feasibility of a larger RCT to be assessed. They focus on the feasibility of prehabilitation and…
To evaluate the (cost-)effectiveness of SBRT (with active dose-sparing of the surgical site) followed by surgical stabilization with or without decompression within 24 hours for the treatment of symptomatic, unstable metastases of the cervical,…
The primary objective of the proposed research is to investigate in patients with PDD the efficacy of STN-DBS with best oral medical treatment (DBS-group) for disabling motor symptoms during off-drug phase compared to best oral medical treatment…
To test the feasibility of image-guided navigation during robot-assisted prostatectomy
We want to compare the effectiveness of sclerotherapy and rubberband ligation when it comes to symptoms. We will secondarily consider patient satisfaction, complications and recurrences. We hypothesize that both treatments are equally effective.
To investigate the feasibility of increasing preoperative dietary fiber intake in CRC patients undergoing surgery via 1) personalized dietary advice (Vezel-UP tool), or 2) vegetable product containing natural fibers (WholeFiber) compared to 3)…
Main objective: 1. Determine the feasibility, in terms of system fidelity and acceptability, of remote, image-based monitoring in cardiac surgery patients on a general ward. Secondary objectives: 1. The validity of remote, image-based heart- and…
The aim of this research is to decrease the number of involved margins, resulting in less adjuvant therapy and less local recurrences.
This traditional feasibility study intends to inform a future pivotal trial in the following two ways. Firstly, it aims to evaluate the potential of neural health metrics triggered by FMS, to predict the implant recipient*s auditory performance -…
The aim of this research proposal is to examine the effect of different ISIs on mTc-MEPs.Primary research question: What is the effect of different interstimulus intervals (ISIs) on mTc-MEP thresholds, peak-to-peak amplitudes, and area under the…
