Rochester, Minn.
This study is designed to determine if point-of-care washing of allogeneic Leukocyte-Reduced Red Blood Cells reduces pulmonary complications when compared to standard-of-care Leukocyte-Reduced Red Blood Cells in a cardiac surgical population.
We will determine if a) glycyrrhetic acid (GA, a key component of TJ-68) evokes vasodilation, and b) if glycyrrhetic acid alters the TRP mediated sensory response to local heating.
The goal of this study is to survey the intraoperative dynamics of thrombin generation in pediatric patients ≤ 20 kg undergoing cardiac surgery.
Researchers will compare the effects of lidocaine versus air, as a way to fill the breathing tube cuff which is gently inflated to hold in place the trachea (airway) during surgery. Air is the traditional method used to inflate the breathing tube cuff. Researchers wish to find if lidocaine works better than air to facilitate tolerance to the breathing tube (decreased coughing, sore throat, hoarseness). They also want to learn more about its effectiveness for this particular surgical intervention.
The purpose of this study is to develop an interactive medical record timeline based on physician preferences and perceived clinical needs, to improve the chart review process for new patient encounters in the ICU.
The purpose of this study is to:
Prospectively characterize the dynamic systemic hemodynamic changes that occur during dynamic CT myelography.
Prospectively characterize the changes in regional cerebral oxygen saturation during dynamic CT myelography and how this technology can be used to guide systemic blood pressure management to enhance cerebral oxygen delivery in the setting of iatrogenically increased ICP.

The aim of this study is to better understand providers’ attitudes, perceptions and knowledge of pharmacogenomics and to examine the impact of experiential education with providers.
Jacksonville, Fla.
Participants to be enrolled in this study will have been scheduled to have laparoscopic genitourinary surgery and EPAD monitoring as part of their clinical care intraoperatively. Patients scheduled for genitourinary surgery are often at risk for developing nerve injuries due to intraoperative positioning. Somatosensory evoked potential devices (SSEP) are commonly used to detect pending injury to peripheral nerves. The purpose of the present study is to use SSEP monitoring to determine the incidence and potential causes of significant changes in SSEP waveforms and correlate these changes with neurologic status of the brachial plexus after robotic surgery.
The primary aim of this study is to determine the impact of our CVS-ICU cardiac arrest efficiency initiative on the delay from cardiac arrest to critical resuscitation efforts.
The primary aim is to assess current pharmacogenomics education within nurse anesthesia programs. A secondary aim is to provide educational recommendations on pharmacogenomics and its implications in anesthesia.
