Clinical trials: Perioperative Inflammatory Response
Spinal Fusion Acquired, Spinal Stenosis
Intraoperative Infusion of Precedex to Reduce Length of Stay After Lumbar Spine Fusion
Major lumbar spine surgery causes inflammation, soreness and swelling that can delay discharge from the hospital. Dexmedetomidine (DEX) has been shown to have anti-inflammatory effects.
- Conditions
- Spinal Fusion Acquired, Spinal Stenosis, Lesions of Lumbosacral Intervertebral Disc, Spinal Diseases
- Trial name
- DEXREDLOS (NCT00808665)
- Testing
- Dexmedetomidine, 0.9% Saline
- Where
- United States
- Volunteers
- 68 people

Effect of Celecoxib on Perioperative Inflammatory Response in Colon Cancer
The proposed study aims to investigate how the administration of a drug known to reduce inflammation in humans, Celecoxib, will effect the peri-operative inflammatory response of a patient undergoing primary tumor resection…

Inflammation, Perioperative Morbidity
The Effects of Corticosteroids, Glucose Control, and Depth-of-Anesthesia on Perioperative Inflammation and Morbidity From Major Non-cardiac Surgery (Dexamethasone, Light Anesthesia and Tight Glucose Control (DeLiT Trial))
Evidence thus suggests that steroid administration, tight glucose control, and avoidance of deep anesthesia may decrease perioperative morbidity by reducing the inflammatory response to surgery.
- Trial name
- NCT00995501
- Testing
- Dexamethasone Sodium Sulfate, Insulin, anesthesia management
- Where
- United States
- Volunteers
- 381 people

- Trial name
- NCT00656292
- Testing
- Simvastatin
- Where
- United States
- Volunteers
- 61 people
