This is a prospective, randomized, non-blinded, research study undergoing robotic-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy at the University of Missouri/Ellis Fischel Hospital. Participants will be randomized in a 1:1 fashion. Data also will be tracked on those who are post-operatively stratified by

A face to face visit (review in hospital, or remote video interview via smart phone and social media) is required to screen the occurrence of 30-day rate of the composite endpoints of renal dysfunction, myocardial infarction,stroke, seizure, deep venous thrombosis, pulmonary embolism and all-cause

PPH occurs in approximately 1-5% of deliveries in the United States and accounts for 20-25% of maternal deaths worldwide. PPH is difficult to predict, but classically, risk factors for PPH- uterine atony, abruption, retained tissue, lacerations, infection, obesity, preeclampsia, magnesium

INTRODUCTION There are very few treatment options for patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage, a type of hemorrhagic stroke especially prevalent among Chinese, during the acute phase. Blood clot expansion in the brain (hematoma expansion; HE) is one of the most significant predictors for

This is a Phase 1, multi-center, open-label study designed to evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetics of EXPAREL when administered via local wound infiltration to subjects undergoing open cervical or thoracic spinal fusion or reconstructive surgery. Fifteen subjects are planned for enrollment.

This is a Phase 4, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, controlled study in approximately 220 adult subjects undergoing primary, 1-2 level, open lumbar spinal fusion surgery under general anesthesia. Subjects will be screened within 30 days prior to study drug administration and at least one day

The purpose of this prospective randomized clinical trial is to determine if patients receiving ketamine as a part of general anesthesia during electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) rather than standard of care will have improvement in symptoms of depression after a course of ECT treatments. The

All consecutive patients who had their first-ever ischemic stroke symptoms within the previous month will be asked to enroll in the study. Baseline measurements will be assessed in all patients. Patients without language problems or life-threatening conditions will be asked to answer the structured

This is a single center double blinded randomized controlled study comparing the effectiveness of epsilon-aminocaproic acid (EACA) and tranexamic acid (TA) in reducing 24hour blood transfusion and chest tube drainage. From October 2008 to September 2011, patients greater than 18 years of age,

The study is a prospective, randomized, double-blinded trial comparing three different doses of TXA (5mg/kg, 10mg/kg, 15mg/kg) in decreasing blood loss during and after total knee and total hip arthroplasty. Patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty and total hip arthroplasty will be analyzed
