A Basket Trial of Refractory Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA), Sjögren's Disease (SjD), Idiopathic Inflammatory Myopathies (IIMs) and Systemic Sclerosis (SSc) subjects to evaluate the safety and efficacy of AlloNK, a non-genetically modified allogeneic NK cell, in combination with rituximab.
NCT07300579
VISION-2 is an international, multi-site, prospective observational cohort study of 20,000 patients undergoing noncardiac surgery. Continuous biometric data will be blindly collected for the first 30 postoperative days, in hospital and at home, using Vitaliti™. Following study enrollment and baseline data collection, follow up visits will occur in-hospital, at 30-days, and 1-year post-operatively. VISION-2 has 3 primary objectives, among participants who underwent noncardiac surgery, we will: 1) determine the pattern and frequency of physiological precursors (i.e., biophysical signals) to MINS, BIMS, sepsis, and infection without sepsis; 2) build prediction models from these biophysical signals and their extracted features through supervised machine learning, for the prediction and early detection of those complications; and 3) build a biobank for evaluation of novel biomarkers.
NCT07292337
This study evaluates whether transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation applied at specific acupuncture points (AcuTENS) can reduce pain and anxiety during transrectal ultrasound-guided prostate biopsy for participants suspected of prostate cancer. Many patients experience significant discomfort despite the use of periprostatic nerve block (PPNB). The aim of this study is to determine whether AcuTENS provides additional pain relief or anxiety reduction beyond standard analgesia. The findings may help identify a simple, low-risk adjunct that can improve patient comfort during prostate biopsy. AcuTENS is a non-invasive technique that delivers mild electrical stimulation through the skin, targeting acupuncture points believed to modulate pain perception. In this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, participants are assigned to receive either active AcuTENS or a placebo TENS device that produces no therapeutic stimulation . All participants with receive routine care, including PPNB, according to institutional protocol. Pain scores, anxiety levels, vital signs, and patient satisfaction are recorded before, during, and after the biopsy.
NCT07291310
Brachial plexus birth injury (BPBI) is a condition that occurs when the nerves controlling the arm are injured during birth, leading to weakness, limited movement, and sensory problems. These motor difficulties may also affect cognitive processes related to movement. BPBI requires long-term follow-up and rehabilitation. This study will compare two treatment approaches in children with BPBI: * virtual reality (VR)-based exercises, and * motor-cognitive dual-task exercises. We will examine their effects on brain adaptation (cortical activation), muscle strength, joint motion, proprioception, and upper-limb function. Fourteen children aged 7-14 years will be randomly assigned to one of the two programs, each delivered for 12 weeks. Afterward, participants will continue a 9-month home program. Assessments will be conducted at baseline, after treatment, and at 12 months, including functional MRI (fMRI). This study will be the first to evaluate long-term brain changes and functional outcomes after these two rehabilitation approaches in children with BPBI.
NCT06901544
In this study the investigators going to evaluate the "CLI" as an early prognostic indicator for post-operative abdominal sepsis in critically ill patients.
NCT06853860
There is no study finding examining the effects of the classical hand massage and hand reflexology massage methods on pain, anxiety and physiological parameters after coronary angiography. Therefore, the aim of this study is to examine the effects of reflexology hand massage and classical hand massage on pain, anxiety and physiological parameters after coronary angiography.
NCT07302724
The aim of this prospective randomized controlled study was to determine whether the timing of drain removal in relation to continuous passive motion (CPM) application influences postoperative residual hematoma formation following primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Our primary hypothesis was that removing the drain after initiating CPM would result in less residual hematoma, as CPM-induced intra-articular fluid and blood mobilization would be evacuated through the drain before its removal, thereby reducing postoperative fluid accumulation.
NCT07080853
The purpose of this study is to determine if exercise with extra clothing in a gym-like environment can increase body temperatures appropriately to help people adapt to the heat.
NCT07301073
This randomized controlled trial investigated the effectiveness of postoperative progressive relaxation exercises (PRE) on pain, anxiety, and physiological parameters among adult patients undergoing emergency general surgery. Seventy patients were randomized to either a PRE intervention delivered at postoperative hour 6, postoperative day 1, and postoperative day 2, or to routine postoperative care. Pain (SF-MPQ), anxiety (STAI), and vital signs were measured. The trial demonstrated that PRE significantly reduced multidimensional pain and anxiety and improved heart rate, respiratory rate, and oxygen saturation. The study provides novel evidence that PRE is feasible and effective when implemented exclusively in the postoperative period among emergency surgical patients.
NCT06365216
This study will investigate the efficacy, safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics (PK) of multiple intravenous infusions of NX210c, at two dose levels, in patients with Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).
NCT07234279
To examine pulse rate and blood oxygen saturation accuracy of the Nellcor™ Investigational Device during non-motion and walking motion conditions in a diverse patient population through non-invasive means
NCT03646045
To determine the effect of transpyloric (TP) feeding on microaspiration and lung inflammation in ventilated preterm infants.
NCT07302490
This study aims to compare the clinical effectiveness of two interventional treatments for chronic shoulder pain related to suprascapular nerve pathology: ultrasound-guided suprascapular nerve block and suprascapular nerve radiofrequency ablation (RFA). A total of 104 patients with chronic shoulder pain were enrolled and assigned to one of the two treatment groups. Participants were evaluated at baseline, 1 month, and 3 months after the intervention. Outcome measures included pain intensity, functional disability, range of motion, kinesiophobia, quality of life, shoulder proprioception, and supraspinatus muscle and tendon thickness measured by ultrasound. The primary aim of the study is to determine whether radiofrequency ablation provides more sustained pain relief and functional improvement compared with nerve block. The findings may help guide clinical decision-making in the management of chronic shoulder pain.
NCT05817942
To describe the effectiveness, treatment patterns, quality of life, and safety of participants with moderately or severely active UC treated with filgotinib in a real-world setting.
NCT06803602
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of High-Intensity Focused Electromagnetic (HIFEM) technology in improving the recovery time of urinary control and quality of life for male patients after radical prostatectomy (RP) and Holmium laser prostate surgery (HoLEP).
NCT00947583
This study is being conducted to determine the percentage of patients with solid spinal fusions after being treated with Osteocel Plus in a TLIF procedure. Due to the unique processing conditions, Osteocel Plus retains a high concentration of stem cells in conjunction with the allograft bone matrix, so it is hypothesized that the fusion rate with Osteocel Plus will be comparable to published data for autograft. The Osteocel product family has already been used in approximately 15,000 cases worldwide.
NCT05830721
Acute compartment syndrome (ACS) is a surgical emergency that can develop in patients on extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). ACS is a type of limb ischemia, which means that the limb, such as the arm or leg, loses blood flow. Patients on ECMO can develop this condition for many reasons, but most commonly from the ECMO procedure itself. This most commonly involves the leg. Key symptoms of ACS include severe pain, loss of pulses, loss of feeling, and inability to move the limb. However, because patients on ECMO are often sedated, ACS is difficult to diagnose as patients can not report symptoms. As a result, the only available tool for diagnosing ACS may be measurement of pressures in the limb. This is normally done with a needle-device, which is inserted into the leg for a single measurement. However, a recently developed device, called the MY01 Continuous Compartment Pressure Monitor, allows for continuous pressure readings instead of a single measurement. Multiple measurements may allow for much greater accuracy in diagnosing ACS, which may result in faster time to surgery and potentially save more limbs than single measurements. This device may also be less invasive than an older method of continuous pressure measuring, which uses a needle and tubing that is 14-gauge in size. Therefore, this study aims to compare 3 different types of methods for diagnosing ACS in patients on ECMO, which are 1) Standard of Care, 2) Standard of Care and MY01, and 3)Standard of Care and 14-gauge slit catheter.
NCT07292935
This is a prospective, single-center observational study conducted at the Fribourg Cantonal Hospital to evaluate the diagnostic performance of preoperative gastric ultrasound in determining gastric content and volume. Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy with complete suction of gastric contents serves as the reference standard. Adult patients (≥ 18 years) scheduled for elective or urgent gastroscopy are consecutively recruited. A gastric ultrasound is performed within one hour before the endoscopic procedure. The antral cross-sectional area is measured in standardized positions (supine and right lateral decubitus), and gastric volume is estimated using validated formulas. Gastric content is categorized into three grades (empty, low-risk liquid content, or high-risk/solid content). During gastroscopy, complete aspiration of gastric contents is performed at the start of the procedure. The aspirated volume and qualitative characteristics (liquid vs. solid) are recorded, and the stomach is classified as empty, partially full, or full by the endoscopist. The primary objective is to determine the accuracy of gastric ultrasound in identifying a full stomach. Secondary objectives include evaluating the qualitative agreement between ultrasound and gastroscopy, correlating estimated gastric volume with aspirated volume, and identifying an optimal ultrasound-based volume threshold predictive of a full stomach. Approximately 1,390 patients will be enrolled over one year to obtain at least 139 "full stomach" cases, based on prevalence estimates and sample size calculations. Statistical analyses will include diagnostic performance metrics, Cohen's kappa, correlation tests, Bland-Altman plots, and ROC curve analysis.
NCT07303309
This randomized controlled trial compared high-voltage (60 V) and low-voltage (45 V) pulsed radiofrequency (PRF) for treating chronic lumbosacral radicular pain in adult patients. The study evaluated differences in pain reduction (using the Visual Analogue Scale \[VAS\] and Numeric Rating Scale \[NRS-11\]), functional ability (using Oswestry Disability Index scores), serum Interleukin-6 levels, and overall safety. All participants received fluoroscopy-guided PRF at 42°C for three 120-second cycles and were followed for approximately 6 weeks.
