The objective is to assess which Transfusion Triggers are used in Blood-conserving Trials in Lower Limb Arthroplasty and to assess the prevalence of usage of Transfusion Triggers in time.
radiological factors for DRUJ instability may account for DRUJ instability in patients after a consolidated distal radius fracture with negative influence on outcome
In patients with WAD the strength of the relationship between self reported disability and work capacity is weak to moderate (correlation coefficient between r=0.25 and r=0.75). Work capacity and performance can be predicted with the help of…
The aim of the meta-analysis is to further investigate the early predictive value of migration measured by RSA 1 year post-operatively for revision for aseptic loosening in TKA and to compose migration thresholds for safe and efficient clinical…
To assess the current indications for HPS greenlight laser treatment and the treatment outcomes in terms of objective and subjective improvement.
Primary Objectives: 1. A quantification method for vasa vasorum imaging using contrast-enhanced ultrasound of the carotid arteries will be developed, using physical ultrasound parameters; 2. The vessel wall thickness (intima-media thickness) and…
The nephrotoxicity caused by cisplatin is of great concern both in that it is dose-limiting and can be detrimental to the patient. Much work has been done to reduce or prevent this damage to renal cells, however to date the best approach has reduced…
We therefore hypothesize that FABP/Claudin levels may be used as a diagnostic tool for the identification of intra-abdominal injury necessitating surgery and as a prognostic marker for the development of SIRS/MOF (and morbidity and mortality) in…
The objective of the study is to identify factors associated with anterior knee pain after primary total knee replacement.
The effectiveness of the experimental conditions depends on the motivational characteristics of the person. 1. The sequential condition will lead to 10% behavior change in one behavior after two years, if a person is only motivated to change one…
Establishing the cause of pleural disease often is a great challenge. Definitive diagnosis of pleural disease needs histological confirmation in most cases. Clinical suspicion of malignancy often indicates prompt use of invasive procedures like…
Video images are superior to photographs in conclusively documenting the 'critical view of safety' during laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
Based on our large retrospective analysis, we expect an increase in the number of patients above 50 years in whom pulmonary embolism can be safely ruled on the basis of the new age-adjusted D-Dimer cut-off, but without additional imaging. Especially…
A model based on the combination of clinical prognostic factors and features extracted from tumor contours from CT-PET and biological characteristics obtained from tissue or blood has a high accuracy to predict overall survival and local control…
All polyethylene tibial components in total knee arthroplasty in rheumatoid arthritis patients gives durable long term results.
The primary objective will be to assess whether cerebrovascular reactivity is impaired in the perfusion territory of the vertebrobasilar artery in symptomatic patients with steno-occlusive disease.
Patients suffering from high risk or relapsed leukaemia or high risk MDS can only occasionally be cured with conventional chemotherapy. Allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-SCT) has substantially improved the outcome of such patients due to a…
The primary objective of this explorative study is to evaluate the training effect on the upper extremity function in children with Cerebral Palsy using the Wii computer, which is a Virtual Reality intervention. The secondary objective is to…
Vulnerable 65+ years persons who participate the Geriatric Care Model will experience a better Quality of Life compared to elderly persons receiving care as usual.
