NCT07653906
The goal of this clinical trial is to determine whether Neurolytic Splanchnic Nerve Block (NSNB) reduces pain in adults with upper abdominal malignancies. It will also evaluate the safety of Neurolytic Splanchnic Nerve Block (NSNB). The main questions it aims to answer are: Does NSNB reduce pain intensity compared to Neurolytic Coeliac Plexus Block (NCPB), as measured by the Visual Analog Scale (VAS)? What adverse effects do participants experience when receiving Neurolytic Splanchnic Nerve Block (NSNB)? Investigators will compare Neurolytic Splanchnic Nerve Block (NSNB) with Neurolytic Coeliac Plexus Block (NCPB) to determine which intervention provides more effective and safer pain relief. Participants will: * receive either NSNB or NCPB under fluoroscopic guidance * be monitored immediately and for 2 hours after the procedure for any complications Have their pain intensity recorded immediately after the procedure, and at 7 days, 1 month, and 3 months * be evaluated for quality-of-life using European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire - Core 3 (EORTC QLQ-C30) at 1 month and 3 months. * have their opioid consumption tracked throughout the study.
NCT02557256
The aim of the study is to retrospectively review data about malignancies that arise primarily in the pelvis and/or in the pelvic organs, in pediatric cancer patients \& categorize the spectrum of these malignancies according to experience at South Egypt Cancer Institute which is the largest referral site in Upper Egypt.
NCT02653469
Pulse pressure variation (PPV) is a well-known and widely used dynamic preload indicator based on heart-lung interaction to predict fluid responsiveness. Generally, patients are considered to be fluid-responsive when the PPV value larger than 11-13%. However, several previous researches demonstrated that there is a zone of uncertainty (grey zone) in PPV. To predict fluid-responsiveness accurately in the patients with PPV within grey zone (9-13%), the investigators would evaluate the augmented PPV using augmented ventilation.
NCT00186953
St. Jude Children's Research Hospital is studying ways to make ultrasound images clearer - to be able to see blood vessels, body structures, and tumors better. Ultrasound uses sound waves to create pictures, allowing doctors and other medical professionals to "see" inside the body. Researchers are studying a contrast agent (like a dye) called Optison™. St. Jude Children's Research Hospital researchers want to learn the best and safest dose of this ultrasound "dye."
NCT00723216
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the effects of enoxaparin on venous thromboembolism incidence and bleeding rate (major and minor bleeding) in patients undergoing curative abdominal cancer surgery. The secondary objective is evaluate the incidence of adverse events of enoxaparin in these patients.
