Hypoxia, Appetite, and Energy Intake in Young Female Adults
Recruiting
The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the effects of acute passive continuous hypoxemia (simulated high-altitude at rest) on appetite and energy intake in healthy young female adults. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does six hours of simulated high-altitude (5000 meters) reduce scores of subjective appetite and energy intake? * Do changes in appetite and energy intake persist in the hours following the end of hypoxic exposure? Researchers will compare the effects of simu... Read More

MARINER Trial: Multiparametric Cardiac PET for CAV Surveillance After Heart Transplantation
Recruiting
Cardiac allograft vasculopathy (CAV) is a common complication affecting heart transplant patients. This condition causes narrowing of the heart arteries leading to graft dysfunction. Surveillance for CAV is vital; however an ideal approach has not been established. The goal of this study is to assess whether noninvasive positron emission tomography (PET) based surveillance is non-inferior to invasive coronary angiography (ICA) surveillance.

Weight-Bearing CT and Conventional Periprosthetic Distal Knee Fractures
Recruiting
Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is a surgical procedure commonly conducted for patients with end-stage knee osteoarthritis, often leading to improved pain relief and function. However, for patients that have suffered an associated periprosthetic fracture, a broken bone that occurs around the implant of a TKA, they may receive sub-optical care due to a lack of a trustworthy assessments for component fixation and fracture healing in the literature. The prevalence of TKA surgeries is increasing annua... Read More

Comparison of the User Experience of Four Nasal Aspirators in Infants
Recruiting
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the caregiver's user experience, and overall impacts on an infant's cold symptoms between four nasal aspirator devices. These devices are normally used to relieve congestion in infants. when they are sick by softening and suctioning mucus from the nose. The main questions it aims to answer are: What is the caregiver's user experience of the NozeBot electric nasal aspirator compared to three commonly accessible nasal aspirator devices? Are there ch... Read More

Influence of Oxygenator Selection on Platelet Function and Rotational Thromboelastometry Following Cardiopulmonary Bypass
Recruiting
Open-heart surgery requires temporarily stopping the heart and lungs and diverting the patient's blood to an outside system that takes over the function of the heart and lungs. This is possible through the use of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) which diverts blood, through plastic tubing, to a heart-lung machine which includes an oxygenator. The external oxygenator works as an artificial lung. This allows cardiac surgeons to operate in a field that is free of blood, while the patient's body continu... Read More

RAPID AFib Decision Aid for Stroke Prevention in Atrial Fibrillation
Recruiting
The goal of this pilot clinical trial is to evaluate the utility of a new electronic patient decision aid for stroke prevention therapy in patients with atrial fibrillation. The main questions it aims to answer are: Is the patient decision aid acceptable to both patients and physicians? Does the patient decision aid lead to more effective shared decision-making than standard care among patients with atrial fibrillation who are considering stroke prevention therapy? Participants with a recent di... Read More

Chest Lymph Node Sampling in Patients with Advanced Lung Cancer to Be Treated with Curative-intent Radiation Treatment
Recruiting
This study will investigate the role of sampling suspicious chest lymph nodes with a procedure called endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial fine needle aspiration (EBUS-TFNA) or transesophageal ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) in patients planned to receive radical dose radiation. This study will use Stereotactic Ablative Radiotherapy (SABR) for treatment methods. SABR is a newer radiation treatment that delivers high-dose, precise radiation to small tumors and can be...
