The NSS-2 BRIDGE® device (NSS stands for Neuro-Stimulation System) is a disposable device that stimulates the branches of cranial nerves and of the superficial cervical plexus innervating the ear. Because the stimulation of the nerves of the ear by the NSS-2 BRIDGE® device (NBD®) has been shown to modulate pain pathways in rodents, decrease abdominal pain in adolescents with inflammatory bile syndrome and due to the results of our preliminary pilot study, the investigators hypothesized that this technique may also be effective in reducing the requirement for postoperative opioids and provide a non-pharmacological alternative to perioperative opioid use. To establish the role that the stimulation of the nerves of the ear may have in reducing postoperative opioid requirement, the investigators are proposing to conduct a randomized, placebo controlled study in patients undergoing open abdominal or pelvic surgery requiring at least 5 days of hospitalization. Subjects who have signed an informed consent will be randomized in 2 groups (active NBD® group or inactive NBD® group). Furthermore, since preoperative and postoperative mood disorders have been shown to increase postoperative pain levels and opioid requirement by up to 50%, the investigators further hypothesize that the stimulation of the ear nerves by the NSS-2 BRIDGE® effects may be in part mediated by a reduction of the level of anxiety, depression and catastrophizing as assessed using validated questionnaires.

This cluster-randomized trial will assess the effectiveness of a precision feedback service on anesthesia provider performance. The precision feedback service enhances a standard audit and feedback (A\&F) email with a brief message and visual display about high-value performance information. The control arm will receive a standard "one size fits most" A\&F email that is currently sent to anesthesia providers each month. Hypothesis: Providers receiving precision feedback will increase a) care quality for improvable measures and b) email engagement (click-through and dashboard login rates) when compared with providers receiving standard A\&F emails. The study investigators will assess unintended consequences in a mixed-methods process evaluation.

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether physicians can associate evidence of myocardial injury after surgery with findings obtained from submaximal cardiopulmonary exercise testing. The main questions are: Is detection of postoperative myocardial injury with submaximal cardiopulmonary exercise testing superior to using usual care? And which submaximal cardiopulmonary exercise testing measure is better? Participants will undergo evaluation with a short submaximal cardiopulmonary exercise test, then undergo surgery. Myocardial injury will be measured on postoperative days 0, 1, 2, and 3 (during and up to 3 days after surgery). These results will analyzed by comparing it to findings from the submaximal cardiopulmonary exercise test. If there is a relationship, this will help anesthesiologists and surgeons assign certain treatments that may reduce the risk of developing myocardial injury after surgery.

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if using methadone and ketamine during an adult deceased donor liver transplant can help decrease pain after surgery. The main questions it aims to answer are: * What impact does using methadone and ketamine during a deceased donor liver transplant have on pain after surgery? * Does the use of methadone and ketamine also have an impact on mental confusion (delirium) after surgery? Researchers will compare the use of methadone and ketamine to standard of care to see if the two drugs work to decrease pain and impact delirium after liver transplant. Participants will: * Receive either methadone and ketamine or standard of care during their deceased donor liver transplant. * Allow researchers to follow medical care throughout inpatient stay.

The central hypothesis of this research study is that perioperative administration of the proton pump inhibitor (PPI) pantoprazole could reduce the development of acute kidney injury (AKI) following cardiac surgery by activation molecular pathways for kidney protection. The investigators propose a single-center, randomized, controlled, single-blinded trial to determine whether perioperative intravenous administration of pantoprazole will reduce the incidence of AKI, some molecules that can be detected the urine, and major adverse kidney events (MAKE) at day 30 postoperatively, compared to famotidine after cardiac surgery. The specific aims of the study will be achieved by randomizing a group of 400 patients to receive pantoprazole (study) or famotidine (control) for 3 days perioperatively. Our study population will include any adult patients (aged over 18 years) scheduled for cardiac surgery requiring a cardiopulmonary bypass machine.

Why Other Patients Applied

"I've been struggling with ADHD and anxiety since I was 9 years old. I'm currently 30. I really don't like how numb the medications make me feel. And especially now, that I've lost my grandma and my aunt 8 days apart, my anxiety has been even worse. So I'm trying to find something new."

"I was diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer three months ago, metastatic to my liver, and I have been receiving and responding well to chemotherapy. My blood work revealed that my tumor markers have gone from 2600 in the beginning to 173 as of now, even with the delay in treatment, they are not going up. CT Scans reveal they have been shrinking as well. However, chemo is seriously deteriorating my body. I have 4 more treatments to go in this 12 treatment cycle. I am just interested in learning about my other options, if any are available to me."

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do Anesthesiology clinical trials pay?

Each trial will compensate patients a different amount, but $50-100 for each visit is a fairly common range for Phase 2–4 trials (Phase 1 trials often pay substantially more). Further, most trials will cover the costs of a travel to-and-from the clinic.

How do Anesthesiology clinical trials work?

After a researcher reviews your profile, they may choose to invite you in to a screening appointment, where they'll determine if you meet 100% of the eligibility requirements. If you do, you'll be sorted into one of the treatment groups, and receive your study drug. For some trials, there is a chance you'll receive a placebo. Across Anesthesiology trials 30% of clinical trials have a placebo. Typically, you'll be required to check-in with the clinic every month or so. The average trial length for Anesthesiology is 12 months.

How do I participate in a study as a "healthy volunteer"?

Not all studies recruit healthy volunteers: usually, Phase 1 studies do. Participating as a healthy volunteer means you will go to a research facility several times over a few days or weeks to receive a dose of either the test treatment or a "placebo," which is a harmless substance that helps researchers compare results. You will have routine tests during these visits, and you'll be compensated for your time and travel, with the number of appointments and details varying by study.

What does the "phase" of a clinical trial mean?

The phase of a trial reveals what stage the drug is in to get approval for a specific condition. Phase 1 trials are the trials to collect safety data in humans. Phase 2 trials are those where the drug has some data showing safety in humans, but where further human data is needed on drug effectiveness. Phase 3 trials are in the final step before approval. The drug already has data showing both safety and effectiveness. As a general rule, Phase 3 trials are more promising than Phase 2, and Phase 2 trials are more promising than phase 1.

Do I need to be insured to participate in a Anesthesiology medical study?

Clinical trials are almost always free to participants, and so do not require insurance. The only exception here are trials focused on cancer, because only a small part of the typical treatment plan is actually experimental. For these cancer trials, participants typically need insurance to cover all the non-experimental components.
