3 Clinical Trials for Hemorrhoids
This study will involve the recruitment of adult patients with hemorrhoids for whom rubber band ligation is the recommended treatment. Patients will be randomized to receive banding with a latex band or non-latex band. Our goal will be to measure the performance of latex bands vs non-latex bands.
This study will assess how effective and safe rectal artery embolization works to treat symptomatic bleeding predominant internal hemorrhoids.
This is a prospective, randomized study of ketamine versus no ketamine in approximately 100 patients undergoing hemorrhoidectomy for Grade III or IV hemorrhoids. The participants will be blinded to which treatment arm they are assigned, because participants will be under anesthesia when the ketamine is administered. The investigators will know whether the participant receives ketamine or not.
