Aspirin for the Prevention of Preeclampsia in Women With Stage 1 Hypertension
Recruiting
In 2017, the American College of Cardiology and the American Heart Association changed the diagnostic criteria for hypertension in non-pregnant adults. The parameters for the diagnosis of stage 1 hypertension were revised from a systolic blood pressure (BP) of 140 to 130 mm Hg and a diastolic BP of 90 to 80 mm Hg. Based on new criteria, stage 1 hypertension is associated with a 2-3 fold increased risk of preeclampsia. There are no data regarding prevention of preeclampsia in women with stage 1 h... Read More

Waveform and Spectral Characteristics of Perioperative Wheezing
Recruiting
With the aid of computerized sound analysis, digital acoustic monitoring could provide a more sensitive, specific, and quantifiable indicator for perioperative respiratory abnormalities including wheezing. It is probable that the digital stethoscope has utility in the detection, monitoring, and resolution following treatment of acoustic changes characteristic of turbulent respiratory gas flow due to wheezing and/or the incomplete resolution of atelectasis following the re-initiation of ventilati...

Breaking Bad News to Family Members in a Pandemic
Recruiting
Resident education on breaking bad news and conducting end of life conversations has been shown to improve comfort levels with having these conversations. Interventions with OB/GYN residents specifically have used a combination of didactics, resident role-playing and ultimately interaction with standardized patients with feedback from palliative care specialists. These interventions can be costly and also are not practical during the pandemic training environment where resident has transitioned... Read More

ZILRETTAâ„¢ for Treatment of Idiopathic Adhesive Capsulitis
Recruiting
Adhesive capsulitis is a fairly common orthopedic condition that causes pain and loss of range of motion. There are a variety of ways to treat adhesive capsulitis, one of them being an intra-articular steroid injection. This is done to help decrease the inflammatory response caused by adhesive capsulitis. In this study, all participants will receive an intra-articular glenohumeral injection of ZILRETTA and will be followed up with at four time points over 1 year to observe pain, function and ran...

Microfluidic-based Tactile Sensor in Cardiac Rehabilitation
Recruiting
This study will examine the impact of cardiac rehabilitation on blood vessel health using a newly developed microfluidic-based tactile sensor to assess blood vessel health. The participants will have their blood vessel health measured using a sensor that is placed on top of the skin over the artery before and after exercise (1, 3, 5, 10, 30 and 60 mins). The investigators will study these responses at the first session of cardiac rehabilitation and following 1 and 4 weeks of cardiac rehabilitati... Read More
