Filter this list of studies by location, status and more.

1. Analysis of the Cardiac, Aorta and Carotid Artery Walls for Hemodynamic Monitoring in the Intensive Care Unit

   Jacksonville, Fla.

   The primary aim of this study is to determine if biomechanical properties of cardiac and large arterial walls measured by ultrasound-based novel imaging technology correlate with hemodynamic parameters measured by other tools in the ICU.

2. Minnesota Spinal Cord Injury Data Network

   Rochester, Minn.

   This is a study to generate feasibilty data regarding the collection of health and psychosocial outcomes after acquired spinal cord injury (SCI)

3. Study to Validate the Use of a Lymphatic Imaging Protocol to Stage Disease Severity in Patients with Lymphedema

   Jacksonville, Fla.

   The purpose of this study is to validate the use of a lymphatic imaging protocol to stage disease severity in patients with lymphedema and serve as a biomarker for microsurgical treatment response.

4. A Study To Collect Clinical Outcomes Of Anatomic And Reverse Total Shoulder Arthroplasty

   Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.

   The purpose of the study is a multi-center prospective registry to collect clinical outcomes of anatomic and reverse total shoulder arthroplasty.

5. A Study Of Paired-Vagus Nerve Stimulation On Functional Connectivity In Ischemic Stroke

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to delineate the neural mechanisms of VNS-REHAB (Vagus Nerve Stimulation paired with task-specific upper limb rehabilitation).

6. A Study to Develop Processes for Tissue Growth for Use in Reconstruction Surgeries

   Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.

   The purpose of this study is to develop the procedures for the growth of specific cells and tissues needed for reconstruction surgeries of the head and neck using the waste tissues of other surgeries.

7. Clinical Outcomes of Patients Treated With Open Surgical Repair for Complex Aortic Aneurysms

   Rochester, Minn.

   This is a prospective, non-randomized, single center, data collection study of patients treated with open surgical repair (OR) for complex aortic aneurysms (CAAs).

8. A Study to Evaluate Preiser's Disease and Its Complications

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to describe the outcome and complications in surgical management of Preiser',s disease in the past 30 years in the Mayo Clinic.

9. A Study of Blood Clotting Response in Patients with a Traumatic Injury

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to look at the blood’s clotting response in people who have suffered a traumatic injury and compare it with non-injured people.

10. A Study to Evaluate Same Day Discharge Post-mastectomy with/without Alloplastic Breast Reconstruction

    Rochester, Minn.

    In the light of the pandemic, institutions have had to take greater precautions and instigate procedures to aim to improve safety and reduce risk for patients undergoing surgery. One intiative was designed to implement a same day discharge for patients undergoing mastectomy with or without alloplastic reconstruction. This study aims to evaluate the outcomes and patient satisfaction with same day mastectomy with or without alloplastic reconstruction following COVID-19 and compare satisfaction and outcomes (e.g complications) with patients pre-COVID 19. This is part of a quality improvement project.
