Researchers will collect stool and urine samples and ask about your daily life to find possible risk factors. You won't receive any treatment, but your participation can help scientists understand how to prevent the spread of these bacteria.
Buenos Aires, Buenos Aires F.D.Ages 18 years+ - NCT07824908Recruiting
Numbing medicine and pain after keyhole appendix removal
This study looks at whether the place where the appendix is taken out during keyhole surgery and the use of numbing medicine can help reduce pain after the operation. If you're having this emergency surgery, you may have less pain afterward.
