To demonstrate the relative bioequivalency of comparing single 100 mg doses Of Cord's 50 mg Desipramine Hcl tablets to Merrell Dow's 50 mg Norpramin tablets.
The aim of this study is to investigate whether greater occipital nerve stimulation is effective in the treatment of fibromyalgia related pain. The study uses sub sensory threshold stimulation and placebo stimulation in order to investigate whether sub-threshold stimulation is feasible in a placebo controlled study.
Design: Single-centre, controlled study in adults with uncomplicated falciparum malaria in the Nouna Health District, north-western Burkina Faso Phase: Phase II Objectives: The primary objective of this trial is to study the efficacy of different methylene blue regimens given to adults with uncomplicated falciparum malaria in an African area of high malaria transmission intensity. Population: Male adults with uncomplicated malaria from Nouna town. Sample size: N= 60 (n=20 for each group; three different dosing regimens of MB). Treatment: The participants in the three different MB regimens will receive orally twice daily 390 mg MB (total daily dose 780mg) over 7,5 or 3 days respectively. Treatment with the five (three) day regimen will only start after all patients of the seven (five) days regimen have been followed up until day 3. Endpoints: The primary endpoint is the adequate clinical and parasitological response (ACPR) rate on day 28. Secondary endpoints are the number of adverse events (AE) after drug intake until day 28, clinical and parasitological failure rates on day 14 and 28, changes in haemoglobin/haematocrit until day 28, and fever and parasite clearance time.
This study evaluates the feasibility of a biofeedback system aimed at reducing overpressures during seated posture. The system consists of (1) a pressure sensors map, (2) a laptop that couples sensors with actuators, (3) a Tongue Display Unit (TDU) consisting of a wireless circuit embedded in a dental retainer with a matrix of electrodes. The principle of this biofeedback system consists in (1) detecting overpressures in people who are seated over long periods of time, (2) estimating a postural change that could reduce these overpressures and (3) communicating this change through directional information transmitted by the TDU. It is hypothesized that overpressures are diminished after biofeedback.
There are many treatments for chronic tinnitus that have been claimed, with varying degrees of statistical reliability. None of those treatments can eradicate the tinnitus completely. Some therapies can reduce the tinnitus symptoms (loudness, annoyance) up to 30%. Thus there is still a need of new treatments that can reduce considerably the tinnitus symptoms and improve the QOL of subjects. Trial objectives: - The aim of this trial is the improvement of the QOL (quality of live) by reducing the Tinnitus- Symptoms of the patient. - To confirm the efficacy and safety of the coordinated reset technology. These objectives will be assessed: - By subjective and objective measurements of the Tinnitus symptoms, loudness and annoyance.
Pre- and intra-operative nutritional support in patient undergoing major surgery results in decreased morbidity and mortality. Studies investigating the role of omega-3 fatty acids in these patients are increasing. Some are focused on perfusion at the cellular level. This study was undertaken to address the effect of postoperative administration of omega-3 fatty acids on cellular hypoperfusion associated with major gastric surgery.
Saturnism, or lead poisoning, is defined by clinical symptoms (affecting primarily the nervous, hematopoietic, gastrointestinal, cardiovascular, musculoskeletal, renal and reproductive systems) compatible with exposure, in the short or long term, to lead or to its compounds, and can manifest as acute or chronic symptoms, pursuant to the intensity and duration of the signs and symptoms. Measuring serum concentration is the primary method for diagnosing and accompanying exposed workers. Presently, elevated lead counts are reversed by using drugs whose effectiveness is contested on various fronts. Experimental studies shows the efficacy of homeopathic preparations in controlling blood lead levels in laboratory animals, creating the need for controlled studies that evaluate the effectiveness and safety of these preparations in humans.The objective of this study was evaluate the effectiveness of the homeopathic preparation Plumbum metallicum in reducing the blood lead level of workers exposed to this metal.
- Objective: - The objective of this study was to assess the relative bioavailability of two formulations of immediate release amlodipine 10 mg under fasted conditions, in healthy subjects. - Study Design: - This was an open-label, single-dose, 2-treatment, 2-period, randomized, crossover study.Twenty-two healthy subjects were enrolled. Subjects who successfully completed the screening process checked into the research center the night before first dose. Subjects who continued to meet inclusion/exclusion criteria the morning of dose were assigned a subject number, based on the order in which they successfully completed the screening process and procedures as outlined in the study protocol. Subjects were randomly assigned to a treatment sequence and received two separate single-dose administrations of study medication, one treatment per period,according to the randomization schedule. Dosing days were separated by a washout period of at least 14 days. Subjects received each of the treatments listed below during the two treatment periods following an overnight fast of at least 10 hours: amlodipine by Torrent Pharmaceuticals Ltd. and Norvasc by Pfizer, Inc.
Patients undergoing intubation and mechanical ventilation require removal of secretion by means of trachoebronchial suctioning. Timing of the procedure is mainly based on clinical parameters. TBA Care® is a new commercially available device designed to generate a signal when secretions are present in the respiratory tract of intubated patients, thus indicating the need for endotracheal suctioning only when necessary and prior to clinical deterioration. In a prospective randomized trial in intubated and mechanically ventilated patients of a general ICU the researchers investigated the efficacy of TBA Care® in detecting the presence of retained secretions compared to the standard indicators.
- Objective: - The objective of this study was to compare the rate and extent of absorption of the test formulation, amlodipine besylate 10 mg tablets (Torrent Pharmaceuticals Ltd.), with that of the marketed reference product, Norvasc® 10 mg tablets (Pfizer, Inc.), when administered under fed conditions. - Study Design: - This was an open-label, randomized, two-way crossover study in which 18 healthy subjects were scheduled to receive a single dose of each of two treatments in two assigned dosing periods. Each dose administration was separated by a minimum 14-day washout period.
