6 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
The purpose of the study is evaluate the safety and efficacy of L-glutamine as a treatment for patients with diverticulosis.
The General Objective of this study is to investigate the cost and efficacy of treating patients undergoing colorectal surgical resections with an opioid limited pain control regimen as part of an Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) Protocol. This group will be compared to a traditional opioid based pain control regimen.
The primary outcome for this study is the Numeric Pain Score (NPS) for elective patients undergoing elective colorectal surgery that have been randomized to transversus abdominis plane block or epidural anesthesia for the management of perioperative pain in elective colorectal surgery.
This is a prospective randomized study of 114 patients. The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of two standard methods of analgesia for pain control in patients undergoing elective colon and rectal surgery, as measured by the Numeric Pain Scale (NPS) and by the need for supplemental narcotic analgesics. This study is designed to determine if postoperative pain control by local analgesics delivered through preperitoneally placed ON-Q Silver SoakerTM catheters (CPA) is equivalent to continuous epidural analgesia (CEA).
The study aim is to determine if Propofol or the combination of Fentanyl and low-dose Midazolam, are equivalent for patient satisfaction and discomfort when undergoing a colonoscopy. This is a prospective randomized study of 262. The primary outcome of this study is participant's satisfaction and discomfort of the colonoscopy procedure as perceived by the participant, and the secondary outcome will be the discomfort of the patient and difficulty of the procedure as perceived by the physician.
This study will compare two strategies for bowel cleansing prior to inpatient colonoscopy: the entire preparation taken the night before the procedure versus half the preparation taken the night before the procedure, and the other half taken the morning of the procedure.
