Impact of Acetazolamide in Reducing Referred Postoperative Pain
Robotic assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy (RALP) is the standard treatment for prostate cancer, due to the benefits of decreased blood loss and length of stay.The procedure involves removing a man's prostate using a minimally invasive robotic approach under the guidance of a surgeon. In order to gain sufficient access, carbon dioxide …

Effects of High Flow Nasal Cannula on Sputum Clearance in Acute Exacerbation of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
In an acute exacerbation setting high flow nasal cannula (HFNC), which is a modality that provides humidified and warm oxygenated air at flow of upto 60L/min, has shown to reduce blood carbon dioxide level and respiratory rate. However, studies investigating other effects of HFNC in this setting are lacking. To …

Early Use of Airway Pressure Release Ventilation (APRV) in ARDS
Airway pressure release ventilation (APRV) is a time-cycled, pressure controlled, intermittent mandatory ventilation mode with extreme inverse I:E ratios. Currently it is considered as a non-conventional ventilatory mode. The investigators aim to compare APRV with conventional mechanical ventilation (MV) in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).

Safety of Minimally Invasive Surgery Using Endoscopic Stapler in Early Stage Cervical Cancer Patients (SOLUTION)
The SOLUTION trial aims to show the efficacy and safety of performing radical hysterectomy by minimally invasive surgery using an endoscopic stapler in patients with cervical cancer stage IB1 (FIGO staging 2009) and thus to prove that minimally invasive surgery is non-inferior to open surgery.

Population at Risk of Malignant Hyperthermia: Ambispective Cohort.
Malignant hyperthermia (MH) is a pharmacogenetic disease that manifests itself as a hypermetabolic response of skeletal musculature, in genetically susceptible patients, with the inhalation of volatile halogenated anesthetics, depolarizing neuromuscular relaxants such and, rarely, physical stressors such as intense exercise and heat stroke. HM diagnosis is based on the performance …

HFNC and NIV for COVID-19 Complicated by Respiratory Failure
Background: Patients with COVID-19 have a range of clinical spectrum from asymptomatic infection, mild illness, moderate infection requiring supplemental oxygen and severe infection requiring intensive care support. High flow nasal cannula (HFNC) oxygen therapy and noninvasive ventilation (NIV) may offer respiratory support to patients with COVID-19 complicated by acute hypoxemic …

Evaluation of Perfusion Index as a Prognostication Tool for High Quality Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation
The use of invasive arterial pressure monitoring and end tidal carbon dioxide (ETCO2) as quality measures of CPR. Invasive pressure measurements are timeconsuming and cumbersome in resuscitation situations, and are very rarely practical.
