1. A Study to Assess Long-term Symptom Improvement and Recurrence after Operative Management of Popliteal Artery Entrapment Syndrome (PAES)

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to evaluate long-term symptom resolution and quality of life improvements after operative management of popliyteal artery entrapment syndrome (PAES).

2. A Study to Compare Somatostatin Analogues with Perioperative Antibiotics versus Prolonged Antibiotics

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to to determine the individual treatment effect of somatostatin and whether duration of antibiotic therapy coupled with octreotide provides improved outcomes after pancreaticoduodenectomy. 

3. A Study to Assess the Effect of Radial Deviation on the Pronated Grip

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to describe a practical and reproducible radiographic view that can be used in the work-up of ulnocarpal impaction.

4. A Study to Evaluate Advanced Development of Desorption Electrospray Ionization Mass Spectrometry for Intraoperative Molecular Diagnosis of Brain Cancer

   Jacksonville, Fla.

   The purpose of this study is to explore the translational abilities of desorption electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (DESI-MS) as intraoperative diagnostic tool to identify cancerous versus noncancerous tissue and estimate the percentage of tumor infiltration in tissue biopsies, by monitoring depletion of N-acetylaspartate (NAA) and aberrations of the phospholipid signature of neurological tissue; and to identify the presence of IDH mutations by monitoring the 2-hydroxyglutarate (2HG) and, therefore, differentiate between IDH-mutant and wild-type gliomas.

5. A Study to Evaluate Wellness Coaching for Caregivers of Thoracic Transplant Candidates

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of a health coaching intervention on the stress and burden of caregivers of patients awaiting heart or lung transplant.

   Hypotheses:  Caregivers will have traits and behaviors pre-transplant that will predict caregiver readiness, quality of life, and transplant recipient outcomes. Specifically, thoracic pre-transplant caregivers report stress, symptoms of anxiety or depression, and perceive high caregiver burden. These factors may be amenable to pre-transplant intervention to improve overall patient and caregiver outcomes.

   Aims, purpose, or objectives:  We will conduct a pilot trial to test whether caregivers of heart and lung transplant candidates who receive wellness coaching will experience improvement in caregiver-related distress. We will also explore the relationship between caregiving and factors such as uncertainty, resilience, stress level, and affect.

6. Mayo Clinic Upper Digestive Disease Survey

   Rochester, Minn.

   The Mayo Clinic Upper Digestive Disease Survey has been created in order to have a consistent evaluation tools for patients undergoing esophageal reconstruction or treatment  or patients that are experiencing an upper digestive disease in order to standardize and validate outcome measures.  Data will be used to establish the validation of the questionnaires/survey.  Data will also lead to the establishment of “normal” or expected scores for patients undergoing each type of esophagectomy procedure and for upper digestive diseases.  Data will contribute to creating treatment algorithms for symptom management for upper digestive diseases and for post-operative complications and symptoms as well as contribute to pre-operative education.  

7. Stem Cell Coated Fistula Plug in Patients With Crohn's RVF

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to determine the safety of using an autologous mesenchymal stromal cell (MSC) coated fistula plug in people with rectovaginal fistulizing Crohn's disease. Autologous means that these cells that coat the plug come from you. You will be in this study for two years. There is potential to continue to monitor your progress with lifelong regular visits as part of your standard of care. All study visits take place at Mayo Clinic and Rochester, MN. The study visit schedule is as follows: Visit 1 (Week -6) - Screening visit: exam under anesthesia and surgery to assess eligibility of fistula tract, take fat biopsy, if eligible, and fecal diversion. Visit 2 (Week 0; Day 0), exam under anesthesia for stem cell coated fistula plug placement Visit 3 (Week 0; Day 1) Visit 4 (Week 2; Month 1) Visit 5 (Week 4; Month 1) Visit 6 (Week 8; Month 2) Visit 7 (Week 12; Month 3) Visit 8 (Week 24; Month 6) Visit 9 (Week 52; Month 12). Visit 10 (Week 104, Month 24)

8. The Effects of Prophylactic Limited Palmar Fasciectomy on Surgical Outcomes and Scarring

   Rochester, Minn.

   Research is instrumental for improving medical care and the patient experience. Finding new surgical techniques can create better outcomes and minimize recovery time and complications for patients. Some patients undergoing trigger finger surgery with a pre-existing Dupuytren's cord may develop a thickened surgical scar after surgery, which can cause discomfort, difficulty with moving or using, and other complications in the affected finger(s) or hand. The investigator is investigating a surgical technique to minimize these potential complications and scarring after surgery. Subjects are being asked to take part in this research study because they have been diagnosed with trigger finger and pretendinous Dupuytren's cord and have decided to undergo surgery rather than try medical treatment.

9. Human Blood and Tissues Repository for Neuroscience Research

   Jacksonville, Fla.

   The purpose of this study is to collect adult human blood, cerebrospinal fluid, brain, and spine tissues/fluids at time of surgery in order to conduct future studies of the cellular mechanisms of tissue invasion utilized by brain and spine tumors of the central nervous system (CNS).

10. Outcome of Capsular Release for Elbow Contracture

    Rochester, Minn.

    The purpose of this study is to assess the outcome and complications of capsular release for elbow contractures.

1. A Study to Assess Outcomes Based on Different Surgical Approaches to Minimally-invasive Gallbladder Surgery

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to compare the outcomes of patients who had standard laparoscopic port placement compared to non-standard port placement to determine any difference in occurrence of post-operative hernia and operative complications.
