Clinical trials Below are current clinical trials.115 studies in Surgery (open studies only). Filter this list of studies by location, status and more. Multi-Center Prospective Validation Study of VTE Risk Prediction Tool in Trauma Patients Rochester, Minn. Almost one-half million people suffer venous thromboembolism annually in the United States, and one-third die from this disease. Massive bleeding from injury accounts for half of early deaths after trauma. This study aims to prevent the deaths and suffering associated with venous thromboembolism and bleeding by identifying the individual person at high risk of these complications in order to take preventive measures. A Study of Noninvasive Hemoglobin Monitoring in Pediatric Patients Undergoing Orthopedic Surgery Rochester, Minn. The purposes of this study are to validate noninvasive hemoglobin monitoring in postoperative orthopedic pediatric patients, to evaluate patient, parent, and provider preference of noninvasive hemoglobin monitoring compared to invasive blood draw, and to evaluate cost effectiveness of noninvasive monitoring in comparison to invasive blood draws. A Study to Establish a Living Breast Organoid Biobank for Translational Research Jacksonville, Fla., Rochester, Minn., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz. Researchers at Mayo Clinic are developing a Biobank of adult stem cell-rich breast organoids, a new research resource to facilitate normal and cancer stem cell research. Subjects in the Biobank will provide samples of excess breast tissue, complete a health questionnaire, and allow access to medical records now and in the future. The Biobank serves as a library for researchers; instead of having to look for volunteers for each new project, researchers can use samples from the Biobank as well as share information already collected. A Study of Mesenchymal Stem Cell (MSC) Adherence and Vessel Wall Penetration Following Intra-arterial Delivery Subsequent to Controlled Balloon Angioplasty Jacksonville, Fla. The purpose of this study is to determine the amount of MSCs that adhere to predetermined areas of arterial wall following balloon angioplasty vs no intervention, and to characterize the effect of intra-arterial injection of MSCs on predetermined areas of arterial wall via transcriptome analysis. Outcomes of Open and Endovascular Repair for Ruptured and Non-Ruptured Internal Iliac Artery Aneurysms Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is to evaluate different techniques to repair internal iliac artery aneurysms. Report short and long term clinical outcomes with markers of pelvic perfustion. Compare partial pelvic perfusion preservation with bilateral complete preservation. A Study of Performing Surgery for Resectable Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma After Radiation Therapy Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is to assess the possibility, safety, and therapeutic effect of administering a short, quick course of high-dose radiation treatment focused on half of the chest, followed by surgery to remove that portion of the lungs, in patients with malignant pleural mesothelioma. Evaluation of the GORE® EXCLUDER® Thoracoabdominal Branch Endoprosthesis in the Treatment of Thoracoabdominal and Pararenal Aortic Aneurysms Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is assess the safety and effectiveness of the GORE® EXCLUDER® Thoracoabdominal Branch Endoprost (TAMBE) Device in the treatment of thoracoabdominal and pararenal aortic aneurysms. A Study of Long-term Symptom Improvement and Recurrence After Operative Management of Median Arcuate Ligament Syndrome Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is to evaluate long-term symptom resolution and quality of life improvements after operative management of median arcurate ligament syndrome (MALS). A Study to Explore Ghrelin Levels with Primary Graft Dysfunction in Lung Transplant Recipients Jacksonville, Fla. The purpose of this study is to investigate ghrelin, a peptide that mechanistically carries the promise of therapeutics benefit for diverse aspects of morbidity associated with lung transplantation. Left Atrial Appendage Exclusion for Prophylactic Stroke Reduction Trial Rochester, Minn. The objective of this trial is to evaluate the effectiveness of left atrial appendage exclusion (LAAE) for the prevention of ischemic stroke or systemic arterial embolism in subjects undergoing cardiac surgery who have risk factors for atrial fibrillation and ischemic stroke.

The patient comes first. So the mission and research here is to advance how we can best help the patient, how to make sure the patient comes first in care. So in many ways, it's a cycle. It can start with as simple as an idea worked on in a laboratory, brought to the patient bedside, and if everything goes right — and let's say it's helpful or beneficial — then brought on as a standard approach. And I think that is one of the unique characteristics of Mayo's approach to research — that patient-centeredness — that really helps to put it in its own spotlight.
