NCT07399925
With the ageing of the French population, the number of elderly people loosing their autonomy is increasing, leading to a growing need for care in residential establishments for dependent elderly people . For multiple reasons, the oral and dental health of the elderly is often when they're admitted to a nursing home (financiary issues, loss of mobility, cognitive impairement, etc.). It can continue to deteriorate after admission du to communication difficulties between care team and dentists. As these various constraints can limit the monitoring and management of the consequences of oral senescence, it is easy to understand the oral health deterioration in nursing home residents. This worsening in oral health is all the more worrying because residents rarely express the need for care, until emergency. This lack of complaints calls for even greater vigilance. While general hygiene care is well carried out, the majority of nursing staff are uncomfortable with oral hygiene care, which sometimes end up neglected or insufficient. Among the reasons that could explain this lack of care, nursing homes staff often speak of a reluctance to carry them out, a lack of knowledge, or even a fear of investing in this oral sphere. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that nursing staff (nurse, orderlies, medical-psychological assistants and hospital service agents) oral health formation will help the development of knowledge and skills, and will improve the quality of life related to oral health of dependant people, while decreasing nursing staff anxiety levels in regards to dental care. To this end, before and 6 months after training in oral hygiene care for carers, the quality of life in relation to the oral health of residents will be assessed using the GOHAI questionnaire. Caregivers' anxiety levels will be assessed using the STAI-Y questionnaire. At the end of the training, two caregivers will be designated as oral health referents in each nursing home and a support unit will be set up. Supporting documents to help make the decision to call the dentist and care protocols left on site will complete this system.

This study aims to use the Apple Watch health metrics to assess short-term physiological responses in a randomized, double-blind, crossover real-world indoor purification intervention.
NCT05045742
This is a retrospective observational study drawing on data from the Brigham and Women's Home Hospital database. Sociodemographic and clinic data from a training cohort were used to train a machine learning algorithm to predict patient deterioration throughout a patient's admission. This algorithm was then validated in a validation cohort.
NCT06899971
Patients born with heart defects often undergo surgical procedures on a heart lung machine. With improvements in medical and surgical management, their survival has significantly improved, but their brain insult has not been paid much attention. This study is to determine the relationship between specific proteins in the blood and brain injury in patients less than 18-year-old undergoing heart surgery.
NCT04784351
This is a retrospective observational study drawing on data from the Brigham and Women's Home Hospital database. Sociodemographic and clinic data from a training cohort were used to train a machine learning algorithm to predict length of stay throughout a patient's admission. This algorithm was then validated in a validation cohort.
NCT05037292
The PAUSE Trial is a pragmatic, randomized clinical trial for Veterans scheduled for elective surgery at 3 large VA facilities (Palo Alto, Houston, and Nashville). The PAUSE Trial focuses on cooperation between providers of various disciplines in order to provide better care. Veterans identified as frail upon standardized will be referred to a multidisciplinary "PAUSE Board" comprised of members from surgery, anesthesia, geriatrics, palliative care, case management, rehabilitation, and nutrition. Diverse specialists will come together in a team environment to discuss care options, scientific evidence, and patient goals and expectations, creating individual patient recommendations. The investigators hypothesize that the PAUSE Board model will improve quality and outcomes by promoting guidelines and evidence-based care recommendations as well as constructive team-based discussions to align care with patient goals and expectations.

NCT06438185
The purpose of the IRE System is to address the clinical need for reducing the volume of hypertrophic inferior turbinate(s) causing nasal obstruction while minimizing side effects and complications. Procedure time will also be reduced. The IRE System is designed to be more comfortable for patients, as it employs a noninvasive procedure using a high voltage pulsed electric field to create irreversible nanopores in the cell membrane, leading to cell death and the reduction of the inferior turbinate volume.
NCT06163547
Chronic Subdural Hematomas (cSHD) are common, and due to cerebral compression, often result in neurological impairment and reduced consciousness. Surgery is typically performed once neurological symptoms develop. Recent studies suggest that arteries nourished by the middle meningeal artery (MMA) may be responsible for hematoma progression and that MMA embolization is clinically useful. There is less evidence, that embolization of MMA also may be a treatment option for individuals without surgical treatment. The investigators propose a multicentre study to investigate both potentials: (1) Assessment of efficacy of embolization after surgery to reduce recurrence and improve outcomes by conducting a randomized trial (randomization arms; Arms 1 and 2), (2) Assessment of embolization-alone efficacy when surgery is contraindicated or refused (embolization-only arm, Arms 3 and 4).
NCT07476404
Project Summary: Retrospective Cohort Study 1. Core ObjectiveThe primary goal is to determine if the volume of Hydroxyethyl Starch (HES) 130/0.4 (specifically Voluven® or Volulyte®) administered during the removal of giant meningiomas (tumors \> 5 cm) increases the risk of postoperative complications. 2. Research Question Does the volume of intraoperative HES solution influence the rate of re-bleeding (requiring a second surgery within 48 hours) or the development of Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) within 7 days after the initial craniotomy?Outcomes: 3. Outcomes Primary: Incidence of re-bleeding at the tumor bed requiring re-operation within 48 hours Secondary: New-onset postoperative AKI within 7 days (defined by KDIGO criteria)

This is a first-in-human (FIH) multicenter, open-label, dose-escalation Phase 1 clinical trial to evaluate safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and preliminary efficacy of D3S-003 in participants with advanced KRAS p.G12D mutant solid tumors.
NCT06859424
The purpose of this clinical trial is to compare drug combinations to learn which drugs work best to prevent graft-versus-host-disease (GVHD) in people who have received a stem cell transplant. The source of stem cells is from someone who is not related and has a different blood cell type than the study participant. The researchers will compare the new drug combination to a standard drug combination. They will also learn about the safety of each drug combination. Participants will: * Receive the standard or new drug combination after transplant * Visit the doctor's office for check-ups and tests after transplant that are routine for most transplant patients * Take surveys about physical and emotional well-being * Give blood and stool samples.
NCT07478484
Metallo-β-lactamase-producing carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative bacteria (MBL-CR-GNB), due to their capacity to hydrolyze almost all β-lactam antibiotics, have become a critical global threat in antimicrobial resistance. Current novel β-lactamase inhibitors (e.g., avibactam, relebactam, vaborbactam) only inhibit serine enzymes and are ineffective against metallo-β-lactamases (MBL), severely limiting clinical treatment options. Aztreonam (ATM) is inherently stable against MBL, while avibactam (AVI) inhibits co-produced serine β-lactamases (e.g., KPC, OXA-48). Their combination achieves complementary synergistic antibacterial effects. The ceftazidime-avibactam plus aztreonam (CZA+ATM) regimen, operating via the mechanism of "avibactam protecting aztreonam", has demonstrated synergistic bactericidal activity against NDM, VIM, IMP and other MBL-producers in multiple real-world and clinical studies, significantly reducing infection-related mortality.However, although current domestic and international guidelines recommend the CZA+ATM combination for MBL infections, there is no consensus on optimal infusion strategies. Based on the above, this study hypothesizes that in patients with complicated infections caused by MBL-producing CR-GNB, different infusion modalities of ceftazidime-avibactam combined with aztreonam-concomitant infusion versus sequential infusion-will show no significant differences in PK/PD target attainment rates, clinical cure rates, microbiological eradication rates, or all-cause mortality, without increasing the risk of adverse events.
NCT06924827
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn the best way to switch children with Lennox-Gastaut Syndrome (LGS) or Dravet Syndrome (DS) taking 'artisanal' (non pharmaceutical-grade) cannabidiol (CBD) to Epidiolex for treatment of seizures. The main questions it aims to answer are: * How well does a gradual switch from 'artisanal' CBD to Epidiolex work? * Does the same dose of Epidiolex as 'artisanal' CBD work best? * What side-effects or medical problems do participants have when switching from 'artisanal' CBD to Epidiolex? Researchers will examine how successful switching from 'artisanal' CBD to Epidiolex is. Participants will: * Gradually increase their dose of Epidiolex and reduce their dose of 'artisanal' CBD until they are taking just Epidiolex * Visit the clinic five times over 20 weeks for checkups and tests * Keep a diary of their seizures, symptoms and the number of times they use a rescue seizure medication

NCT04630392
Whole-body vibration (WBV) and treadmill training (TT) are commonly-utilized rehabilitation interventions for children with neuromotor disorders. WBV has been shown in the literature to positively affect gait and lower body spasticity in this population. However, the effects of a single session of WBV are generally transient, lasting between ten minutes and two hours. Thus, it may be necessary to combine WBV with another intervention to reinforce improved movement patterns and maximize its potential benefits. Therefore, the aim of this study is to investigate the effects of the addition of a single bout of WBV to a single bout of TT on the lower extremity spasticity and gait parameters of ambulatory children with CP.
