Synchronous visuo-tactile signals will facilitate the patients’ intrinsic ability to voluntarily control attention towards the sensory stimuli in the neglected hemispace allowing them to be consciously processed.
In old age, sufficient protein intake is important to preserve muscle mass and function. Around 50% of older adults (65+ y) consumes ¡Ü1.0 g/kg adjusted body weight (BW)/day (d). There is no rapid method to screen for low protein intake in old age…
Breast-conserving surgery followed by radiotherapy is a safe and effective procedure to treat early stage breast cancer. In many women, this type of treatment gives beside a good survival a good cosmetic result. However, some women will be troubled…
We hypothesize that, in line with the results of the previous study, cheilectomy and Keller’s arthroplasty show better clinical and subjective outcome in patients treated for low grade HR compared to arthrodesis. In addition, we hypothesize that…
Due to the increased clinical awareness concerning the subject of BIA-ALCL, we expect to report a higher incidence of this disease anno 2015/2016
An inpatient brace adaptation protocol increases therapy compliance and brace comfort for the patient compared to an outpatient brace adaptation protocol.
It will be investigated whether passive leg raising and stroke volume variations can be used in predicting renal responses to fluid administration. Our hypothesis is that dynamic predictors of cardiac fluid responsiveness can predict an increase in…
Low-molecular-weight heparins (LMWHs) are frequently used in the prophylaxis and therapy of venous thromboembolism (VTE) and the prophylaxis of arterial thromboembolism. LMWHs are mainly excreted by the kidneys and may accumulate in patients with…
A reduced peritoneal exposure to glucose and thereby to glucose degradation products will influence the incidence and severity of peritonitis and may modify peritoneal membrane characteristics.
Hypothesis A: We expect a decline in measured musclemass during the initial days of hospital admission, also we do not expect hydrational changes to be of great influence on estimated muscle mass. Hypothesis B: We expect that the time of the day on…
The COL3A1 polymorphism is a inheritable genetic defect, responsible for the increased susceptibility to pelvic organ prolapse in women.
Vitamin D plays an integral role in calcium and phosphorus homeostasis. A low vitamin D status can occur as a result of reduced synthesis due to lack of sun exposure, decreased intake or absorption, increased hepatic catabolism, or decreased…
One way of providing binaural cues to unilateral CI recipients is to wear an acoustic hearing aid in the contralateral non-implanted ear, known as bimodal hearing. The benefits of bimodal input (e. g. speech perception in noise, localisation,…
Early mobilisation, i.e. 6 hours after vascular closure after TF-AVI procedure, will maximize comfort, lower pain complaints, lower infection rate and raise overall patient wellbeing after TAVI-procedure without extreme increase in vascular…
