Optimizing Pain Self-Management in Total Knee Arthroplasty
Recruiting
The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy of a positive affect enhancing intervention designed to reduce pain and augment reward system function in knee osteoarthritis (KOA) patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty (TKA). The scientific premise is that patient use of a positive emotion generative practice - savoring meditation, which has been demonstrated to reduce pain in experimental laboratory settings, enhanced with a pain neuroscience education component about reward syste...

The Pediatric Anesthesia Quality Improvement Project
Recruiting
The Study is designed to collect information about adverse events that occur in children undergoing anesthesia in participating hospitals. Demographic information will be collected on all anesthetics. An analysis of each adverse event will be performed and entered into the database. From this information we will devise strategies to prevent these adverse events.

Management of Antiplatelet Regimen During Surgical Procedures
Recruiting
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 bri...

Evaluating a Dropless Postoperative Regimen After Cataract Surgery in a Vulnerable, County-hospital Population
Recruiting
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 eventual... Read More

Blood Flow Restriction Training Versus Standard Physical Therapy After Shoulder Stabilization Surgery
Recruiting
Describe the purpose and objective(s) of the study, specific aims, and/or research questions/hypotheses: The purpose of this Randomized Controlled Trial is to evaluate the effectiveness of Blood Flow Restriction (BFR) training with standard care of physical therapy versus the standard care of Physical Therapy alone and its effect on shoulder function and patient outcomes in military cadets recovering from shoulder stabilization surgery. We hypothesize after 6 weeks of BFR training will contribu... Read More

Comparing 1 Week Versus 2 Week Cutaneous Suture Removal
Recruiting
Our goal is to compare the difference in surgical outcomes and patient satisfaction for surgical scars on the face between suture removal at 1 week versus 2 weeks. There is variation in the timing at which Mohs surgeons remove sutures on the face. Some prefer 1 week, and others prefer 2 weeks. This has not been formally studied. It is possible the outcomes are the same between both groups, or that one has a better cosmetic outcome than the other. Your skin cancer will be removed as usual. Afte... Read More

Compliance With Enhanced Recovery After Surgery Protocol (ERAS) in Surgical Patients
Recruiting
The concept of "enhanced recovery" was introduced by European anesthesiologists and surgeons who challenged traditional clinical practices involved in peri-operative care in 1990s. The goal of enhanced recovery programs (ERP) is to maintain normal physiology thereby decreasing complications. It focuses on peri-operative optimization of patient care. It was originally created for open colorectal surgeries but now has shown benefit in various surgical specialities including thoracic surgery, vascu... Read More

Optimization of Diet Before Surgery (OptiSurg)
Recruiting
The overarching goal of this project is to assess whether a controlled short-term Time restricted feeding (TRF) intervention leads to metabolic benefits, improves recovery after vascular surgery and that TRF is safe. Participants suffering from intermittent claudication (Fontaine stage II peripheral artery disease, PAD) will be randomly assigned to a 2-week TRF or active control dietary advices before open surgical revascularization. Prior to the surgery, the investigators will assess the eating... Read More

Cognition and the Immunology of Postoperative Outcomes
Recruiting
This research will test the hypothesis that immune system disequilibrium / dysfunction explains why preoperative cognitive impairment is a strong predictor of postoperative morbidity in older surgical patients. The investigators propose that cognitive impairment influences surgical morbidity because of underlying immune disequilibrium / dysfunction (risk marker) and that this shapes the immune response to surgery and defines immunological hallmarks of postoperative morbidity (disease marker).
