The aim of this study is to identify Galectin-1 and -3 as possible biomarkers in capsular contracture. Moreover, we plan to investigate whether HLA-typing and IgE levels in subjects can be used to predict the chance of development of capsular…
Primary Objective: 1. A search for (objective) EEG predictors (independent variables) for both acute and chronic postoperative pain (dependent variables) after breast cancer surgery. The EEG variables are derived from the above mentioned five…
To investigate that in mamma surgery, regional infiltration with ropivacaine 0,75% added to general anaesthesia causes less postoperative pain, nausea and vomiting compared to general anaesthesia alone.
The primary aim of this study is to prospectively assess the incidence of pulmonary embolism in patients undergoing abdominal flap breast reconstruction.
Investigate the consequences of axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) and sentinel lymph node procedure (SNP) regarding shoulder impairments, the activities a women still undertakes and the role of quality of life and anxiety in this in women who…
Riskreduction of developing breast carcinoma by means of better surgical techniques (removing all normal breast tissue).
We want to answer the following research questions using a peri-operative infusion of lidocaine (PIL) protocol:1. Does low dose peri-operative intravenously administered lidocaine attenuate systemic inflammatory response measured by plasma cytokine…
We want to investigate wether a para-vertebral block contributes to a reduced postoperative pain and morphine consumption in patients with breast cancer after a unilateral mastectomy or lumpectomy. By doing this investigation we hope to clarify,…
The objective of the study is to determine the clinical relevance of sparing the lymfdrainage of the upper extremitiy by using the ARM-procedure in patients with breast cancer. The purpose of the continuation of the feasibility study is to create a…
To test the hypothesis stated above, we propose to study the dose-response relationship between various chemostimulants and PMN functions of major trauma patients and patients undergoing major surgery in vitro, both early after the initial trauma or…
Reducing postoperative pain and nausea improves patient satisfaction.
The BASIS study will analyze the full cancer genome of breast cancer subtype ER+ HER2-.
Our primary objective is to determine the effect of breast reconstruction on the risk of developing lymphedema. Secondarily, we will look at lymphedema and the correlation with 1) primary and secondary breast reconstruction, 2) the extent of…
To evaluate the effect of Avelle negative pressure wound therapy in reducing postoperative wound complications after mastectomy with flap fixation and closed suction drainage.
1. To determine risk factors for BIA-ALCL in women with silicone breast implants. The associations between demographic-, reproductive- and lifestyle characteristics and BIA-ALCL risk among women with breast implants will be investigated. Furthermore…
The primary aim of the project is to find evidence that perioperative reduction of anxiety and paincatastrophizing by means of internet-based cognitive behavioral therapy (i-CBT) reduces theprevalence and intensity of PPBCT and post-treatment…
