There are key differences today in clinical practice regarding perioperative management of post-PCI patients on DAPT undergoing NCS. Moreover, there are significant differences between bridging agents, and improved safety of current-generation DES. Given the significant limitations of current studies a well-designed registry to study current U.S. practice patterns and the bleeding or ischemic risks associated with the various perioperative DAPT management strategies including bridging and no bridging will significantly add to the understanding of the current problem and associated risks of patients. These data could form the basis for conducting future randomized clinical trials (RCTs) in this area. NCS in post-PCI patients on chronic DAPT presents a complex interaction of both ischemic and bleeding risks. The MARS registry will study the area of perioperative antiplatelet therapy management through a multicenter observational national registry designed to collect pre-operative, intra-operative and post-operative clinical strategies, therapeutic interventions and outcomes data. This proposal outlines the role of a highly experienced clinical trial team to conduct a multicenter prospective registry. This question is highly relevant to a diverse group of medical providers and millions of patients in the US and around the world; this will be the first such U.S. registry to address this critically important public health issue. Study objectives: i. To collect data on contemporary clinical practice in the U.S. on managing post percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) DAPT in patients scheduled to undergo NCS and CS. ii. To assess ischemic and bleeding endpoints in this group of patients during the study period. iii. To generate initial data to plan for future large-scale randomized clinical trials on perioperative management of DAPT. Read Less

This study is designed as a randomized controlled trial with patients assigned to neuromuscular reversal with either sugammadex or neostigmine/glycopyrrolate reversal. The study will not be blinded to the anesthesiologist to allow for appropriate decision-making on timing and dosage of reversal. This is a single-center study. Read Less

The multicentre randomised geko™ Foot and Ankle Trial will prospectively and systematically collect clinical data on patients randomised, on a 1:1 basis, to either standard care or standard care plus geko™ therapy to assess oedema management and patient outcomes during a follow-up period of up to three months post-surgery.

Patients undergoing Bariatric Surgery at the University of California Davis Medical Center will be divided into two groups, one receiving Standard of Care pain control medications vs the second group which will receive non-narcotic pain medications with rescue pain medications available if needed Read Less

Prospective randomized controlled trial to determine if opioid-free anesthetic for tonsillectomy is non-inferior to standard opioid-containing anesthetic Read Less

The current postoperative cataract surgery eye drop regimen used at Zuckerberg San Francisco General Hospital (ZSFG) is a significant burden for its patient population, contributing to high rates of non-adherence and the development of postoperative complications. The investigators propose to replace this complex regimen with a single administration of intraocular antibiotic and subconjunctival steroid at the time of surgery. This pilot study will obtain the preliminary data required to eventually fully evaluate this innovation in postoperative care in a safety-net population with respect to postoperative outcomes, patient compliance, and patient and caregiver satisfaction.

The goal of this study is to test the hypothesis that surgical site infiltration with liposomal bupivacaine (LB) is non-inferior to and more cost effective than thoracic epidural analgesia (TEA) for patients undergoing open gynecologic surgery on an established enhanced recovery program (ERP) using a non-inferiority randomized trial design. The impact of TEA and surgical site infiltration with LB on neuroendocrine and inflammatory mediators of surgical stress response (SSR) will also be investigated as a translational endpoint.
