Study design:
Prospective randomized clinical study, sixty patients will be randomly allocated to one of two groups according to a computer-generated random number table of 30 patients each to receive ultrasound-guided either TAP block (Group T) or PVB (Group P).
Study setting and location Theodor
Our project is based on implementation of a telemonitoring and case management BP program for remote dwellers with diabetes and CKD in remote regions of Alberta. Our aim is to determine the impact of the intervention on BP control and other CKD risk factors, achievement of guideline-concordant
Background
The incidence of sepsis has increased over the last four decades (1). Sepsis is a life-threatening condition that arises when the body's response to an infection injures its own tissues and organs. Severe sepsis and septic shock are among the leading causes of death for patients admitted
The main objective of this study is to determine if treating patients with calcitriol and calcium prior to thyroidectomy decreases postoperative hypocalcemia. The primary outcome to be measured is clinical hypocalcemia, defined as peri-oral numbness and/or tingling, numbness and/or tingling in
Cardiovascular disease is the most common cause of death in diabetes. Actually, systematic screening of asymptomatic diabetic patients for silent myocardial ischemia is highly controversial, and is recommended for selected high-risk patients.
Calcium artery calcification score predicts major
Neurotoxicity is mainly associated with tacrolimus and cyclosporin, amounting to 10 - 30% for CS and up to 32% for tacrolimus.(2) . Sirolimus, everolimus, and mycophenolate mofetil lack the neurotoxicity of calcineurin inhibitors (3-4).
Neurotoxicity mostly occurs in the early postoperative period
Anesthesia technique:
On admission to the pre-anesthetic room, patients will receive intravenous pantoprazole sodium 40 mg, midazolam 0.02 mg/kg and the prophylactic antibiotics.
In the operating room, we apply standard monitors in the form of pulse oximetry, non-invasive blood pressure, and
Introduction Shock is defined as a state of impaired cellular energy (ATP) synthesis when tissue oxygen delivery no longer satisfies tissue oxygen demand (Kleinman etal., 2012)
Shock is an independent predictor of early neonatal mortality and more often a problem in preterm infants than in term
Severe infection can lead to many complications within the human body including low blood pressure, which is called septic shock. The main treatments for septic shock are intravenous antibiotics and intravenous fluid.
There are many different intravenous fluids available for doctors to use. Each one

During the preoperative visit, the techniques will be explained to patients including benefits and complications.
1) Pre-operative assessment:
A) Medical history:
1. Medical disorders as hypertension, diabetes, heart, chest, liver or kidney diseases.
2. Past history of operations,
Hemodialysis (HD) is the most worldwide prescribed renal replacement therapy for patients with end-stage renal disease. This treatment that relies heavily on technology has undergone major modifications in the last five decades in order to improve patients' outcomes. Those changes that aimed at
Our hypothesis is that lower salt intake will reduce BP in patients with a kidney transplant. We propose that this will translate into better CV and renal protection via reductions in proteinuria, endothelial dysfunction and arterial stiffness.
The primary aim of the study is to examine the impact
Upon admission of the patients to the hospital, demographic and physiological data will be collected including waist circumference and BMI. A set of baseline laboratory tests will be done for each patient including: glucose level, Hba1c, lipid profile, creatinine level, liver enzymes and micro
