The objective of this clinical investigation is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of ETHIZIA to control minimal, mild, or moderate soft tissue bleeding during open surgery when compared to SURGICEL Original in the percentage of cases achieving hemostasis at 3 minutes after product application, and without re-bleeding up to 10 minutes after application.
This is a prospective, non-randomized, single center, data collection study of patients treated with open surgical repair (OR) for complex aortic aneurysms (CAAs).
The objective of this trial is to assess the safety and effectiveness of the study device in subjects with degenerative mitral valve disease receiving a mitral valve repair without cardiopulmonary bypass (treatment group) when compared to subjects receiving mitral valve repair using standard surgical techniques with cardiopulmonary bypass (control group).
The objective of this study is to evaluate the Symani System's safety and effectiveness for microsurgical anastomosis during free tissue transfer surgery and lymphovenous anastomosis surgery. The primary endpoints are: * Effectiveness- Rate of intraoperative anastomosis patency at first attempt. * Safety- Freedom from device-related adverse events. Participants will receive treatment as standard of care and be asked to: * Allow the researchers to access and use their information. * If participants are undergoing a lymphedema procedure, they will be asked to undergo a questionnaire as part of the study. * Participants will be asked to comply with the follow-up visits and complete all study procedures/questionnaires as outlined in the protocol.
Perilunate injuries can be debilitating injuries that involve the carpus. These can limit patients' functionality both acutely and long-term. Not only do their potential for nerve injury increase risk of lasting weakness and chronic pain, but their complex surrounding involving the carpus also leads to potential for misalignment when healing. The approach for treating perilunate injuries often relies on internal fixation, prompting the need for surgery. However, there is no clear recommendation for whether to pursue open or arthroscopic surgery as both offer benefits and pose risks. The aim of this study is to determine the similarities and differences in outcomes for management of perilunate injuries.
The NSS-2 BRIDGE® device (NSS stands for Neuro-Stimulation System) is a disposable device that stimulates the branches of cranial nerves and of the superficial cervical plexus innervating the ear. Because the stimulation of the nerves of the ear by the NSS-2 BRIDGE® device (NBD®) has been shown to modulate pain pathways in rodents, decrease abdominal pain in adolescents with inflammatory bile syndrome and due to the results of our preliminary pilot study, the investigators hypothesized that this technique may also be effective in reducing the requirement for postoperative opioids and provide a non-pharmacological alternative to perioperative opioid use. To establish the role that the stimulation of the nerves of the ear may have in reducing postoperative opioid requirement, the investigators are proposing to conduct a randomized, placebo controlled study in patients undergoing open abdominal or pelvic surgery requiring at least 5 days of hospitalization. Subjects who have signed an informed consent will be randomized in 2 groups (active NBD® group or inactive NBD® group). Furthermore, since preoperative and postoperative mood disorders have been shown to increase postoperative pain levels and opioid requirement by up to 50%, the investigators further hypothesize that the stimulation of the ear nerves by the NSS-2 BRIDGE® effects may be in part mediated by a reduction of the level of anxiety, depression and catastrophizing as assessed using validated questionnaires.
