NCT02383004
Myringotomy tube placement is one of the most commonly performed operations in children. Emergence delirium after such procedures is common. During emergence delirium children can become both a danger to themselves and others around them, including family members and hospital staff. The primary objective of this study is to determine if acupuncture, when used in combination with standard anesthetic management, decreases the incidence of emergence delirium in pediatric patients following myringotomy tube placement. Patients with and without premedication of midazolam will be included. A secondary objective of this study is to determine our institution's actual incidence of emergence delirium for this operation using a validated scale, the Pediatric Anesthesia Emergence Delirium (PAED) scale. We will also compare rates of emergence delirium in patients that received a premedication of midazolam versus (V) those that did not (NV). This is a randomized double-blinded trial. We will enroll 100 children aged 1-6 years old. Premedication with midazolam will be decided by the anesthesiologist. If needed, the patient will receive a standard does of oral midazolam plus acetaminophen (V). If the patient does not require premedication with midazolam, oral acetaminophen will be given alone (NV). Patients will then be randomized to receive either acupuncture with standard general anesthesia care (A) or to receive standard anesthetic care alone (S). Patients, their family members and recovery registered nurses (RNs) will not know if acupuncture was performed. Intraoperative anesthetic techniques will be standardized and include inhaled inductions with nitrous oxide and sevoflurane. Anesthesia maintenance will be inhaled sevoflurane and the usual pain medication ketorolac will be given intramuscularly prior to emergence. Acupuncture needles will be placed after anesthesia induction and removed prior to leaving the operating room. A total of 4 needles will be placed, one in each wrist at the Heart 7 (HT7) point and one in each ear at the Shen Men point. The needles will be inserted bilaterally to a depth of 1.8 mm. In the PACU, a blinded study observer will evaluate the patient at four time points using the PAED scale: time of awakening and 5, 10 \& 15 minutes after awakening. Follow up phone calls will be made one day and one week after surgery. Families will be asked about behavior after discharge, sleep and bed-wetting.
NCT01017146
The purpose of this study is to assess safety and efficacy of a new foam formulation of tazarotene in subjects with acne vulgaris.
NCT00044278
This study will evaluate the long-term safety of LAMICTAL(lamotrigine)in subjects with partial seizures previously enrolled in protocol LAM20006 and in subjects 1-24 months of age who have never received LAMICTAL(LAMICTAL-naive). For LAMICTAL-naive subjects, LAMICTAL will be added to the subject's current epilepsy medications.
NCT00154427
This trial is conducted in Africa, Asia, Europe, South America and the United States of America (USA). The trial is planned to investigate the safety and efficacy of NovoSeven® in the management of post-operative bleeding in patients following cardiac surgery.
NCT00318383
The purpose of this study is to determine whether vaccination with NicVAX will result in a higher continuous abstinence rate than vaccination with placebo in smokers who want to quit smoking. In addition, two different formulations and dosing schedules will be studied, to select the dose and dosing schedule which generates the highest level of anti-nicotine antibodies. The primary study period is 12 months, which was extended by amendment to include up to 2 years of observations.
NCT00032994
The purpose of this study is to assess Motivational Interviewing (MI) to improve treatment engagement and outcome in subjects seeking treatment for substance abuse.
NCT00451854
The purpose of this study is to determine the influence of drug testing on risk and protective factors of substance abuse among adolescents; examine whether drug and alcohol testing among high school athletes leads to reduced drug and alcohol use; and assess the use of drugs and alcohol among student athletes and non-athletes.
NCT00108914
The purpose of this study is to determine if the investigational drug is effective and safe in children with perennial allergic rhinitis.
NCT00363727
