NCT00941031
The purpose of the study is to determine whether, in patients with moderate to severe plaque-type psoriasis, AIN457 administered subcutaneously reduces the severity of psoriasis symptoms and the extent to which the patient's body area is affected by the disease (compared to placebo).
NCT02075450
Our project aims to improve the delivery and assessment of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) during pediatric cardiac arrest by introducing 2 novel approaches: 1. We will evaluate the effectiveness of a novel, credit card sized, and highly affordable "nano-card" CPR visual feedback device to improve compliance with HSFC CPR guidelines when used during simulated pediatric cardiac arrest; 2. We will also develop and study a novel, "Just-in-Time" (JIT) CPR training video, integrating proven educational methods (video-based lecture, expert modeling, practice-while-watching), and use the CPR visual feedback device to provide real-time coaching. We hypothesize that: H1: The use of a CPR visual feedback device will improve compliance with current HSFC CPR and resuscitation guidelines during a simulated pediatric in-hospital cardiac arrest scenario compared with standard CPR with no visual feedback. H2: A JIT CPR Training Video, viewed by healthcare providers 2-4 weeks prior to the resuscitation event, will improve compliance with current HSFC CPR and resuscitation guidelines during simulated pediatric cardiac arrest compared with those healthcare providers with no prior exposure to the JIT CPR Training Video. H3: That there is poor correlation between providers' perception of CPR quality and actual measured CPR quality H4: That task load varies depending on provider role and type of clinical scenario
NCT00071565
The purposes of this study are to identify possible genes that may increase the risk of aneurysm development in the brain, and to determine the effect of environmental factors such as cigarette smoking and high blood pressure on the expression of these genes.
NCT01145859
The first study with rivaroxaban in pediatric subjects is a Phase I study, where the pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) profile of rivaroxaban will be investigated to confirm that the exposure is comparable to adults. This study is a single dose study with multiple PK/PD measurements in pediatric subjects at the end of their Venous Thromboembolism (VTE) treatment.
NCT01955148
This study is designed to determine if quantitative analysis of fetal Fibronectin (fFN) can be used to advance prediction of spontaneous preterm birth (sPTB). This will be a prospective observational multi-center study with approximately 15 to 20 US sites, and approximately 1210 subjects evaluating the clinical utility of the Rapid fFN 10Q system for preterm birth risk assessment. A single fFN specimen will be collected from each subject between 16 weeks, 0 days and 21 weeks, 6 days. The primary and secondary maternal outcome measures will be determined based on the date of delivery and the estimated date of confinement (EDC), which will be evaluated in a standardized manner.
NCT00887588
The study will assess the effects of 36 weeks of treatment with LCZ696 compared to valsartan on N-terminal pro-Brain Natriuretic Peptide (NT-proBNP) in patients with chronic heart failure and preserved left-ventricular ejection fraction.
NCT00720499
The primary objective of this study is to determine the optimum dose(s) of BI 1744 CL administered with 5 microgram tiotropium bromide solution for inhalation, delivered by the Respimat® inhaler, once daily for four weeks in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
NCT00696020
The primary objective of this study is to determine the optimum dose(s) of BI 1744 CL administered with 5 micrograms tiotropium bromide solution for inhalation, delivered by the Respimat inhaler, once daily for four weeks in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
NCT01506401
What is the effect of early high frequency oscillation (HFO) versus a lung-protective conventional ventilation (CV) strategy (using HFO only as rescue therapy), on all-cause hospital mortality among patients with severe early acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS)?
NCT01506570
Dengue viruses can cause dengue fever and other serious health conditions, primarily affecting people living in tropical regions of the world. This study will evaluate the safety and immune responses to two formulations of a tetravalent dengue virus vaccine in healthy adults who have previously been infected with a dengue virus or other flavivirus or have previously received a flavivirus vaccine.
NCT01344460
Subjects referred for a routine CTA (computed tomography angiography) or MRA (magnetic resonance angiography) will be invited to participate in the study and subjects will be involved in the study for between 2 and 12 days. Two to three visits to the study doctor will be required. This study will compare the diagnostic results of Gadobutrol enhanced MRA images with MRA images taken without contrast agent using images from a CTA as the standard of reference, which may have been performed up to 60 days prior to enrolment. If a CTA has not been performed in this prior time period, a CTA is required for the study. MRA and CTA images will be collected for an independent review (blinded read).
NCT00272792

NCT01791530
Justification and background Ventilator-associated complications (VACs) are those complications that develop during a period of intubation of a patient . Pneumonia is the second most frequent infectious complication in the hospital, and ranks first in ICU, whose risk is increased more than 20 times by the presence of invasive mechanical ventilation and is called ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) . Whereas the information published regarding VAP in terms of diagnosis, treatment and impact on the outcome of critically ill patients is enormous.Ventilator-associated tracheobronchitis (VAT) incidence is lacking and complicated in part, since the definition remains controversial. In addition, the significance of tracheobronchial colonization as a risk factor for subsequent lower respiratory tract infection remains unclear . The upper and lower airways can become colonized . Several factors have been taken into account and do not differ from those involved in VAT and VAP development in patients under mechanical ventilation. Definition VAT diagnosis is controversial and represents an actual problem in order to define the real incidence of VAT , There is currently no valid, reliable definition for VAT, and even the most widely-used VAT criteria and definitions are neither sensitive nor specific. The diagnosis of VAT is considered when a patient under invasive mechanical ventilation starts with fever, leukocytosis and new or increased purulent secretions by the endotracheal tube. A particular difficulty with much commonly used VAT definition (in order to distinguish from VAP) is the key point of the absence of pulmonary consolidation. Evidence suggests that chest radiograph findings do not accurately role out VAP. A taskforce on hospital-acquired pneumonia, and VAP has been recently published (European Respiratory Society (ERS), European Society of Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases (ESCMID) and European Society of Intensive Care Medicine (ESICM)). Nosocomial tracheobronchitis definition includes occurrence of purulent tracheal secretion after ≥48 h of hospitalisation or mechanical ventilation plus ≥2 of the following: fever (≥38.5°C) or hypothermia (\<36°C), leukocytosis (≥12 × 109/L), significant bacteriologic counts in respiratory secretions (≥103 cfu/mL for protected brush specimen (PBS) and ≥105 cfu/mL for endotracheal aspirates); absence of new pulmonary infiltrates compatible with pneumonia and absence of other causes of fever are mandatory. This definition needs to be further validated and can overdiagnose the incidence of VAT (and overuse of antibiotics) because the positive culture of respiratory secretions is not a mandatory item RATIONALE Given the possible high incidence of VAT, and its importance as a risk factor for VAP, and a potential target to treat in order to reduce VAP incidence, a large multicentre
