This study regarding oncological patients for rehabilitation after specific cancer therapy involves three aims: (1) to evaluate the predictive value of myocardial work parameters on the improvement of exercise performance after rehabilitation, (2) to determine which echocardiographic parameters are more suitable in predicting cardiac dysfunction, and (3) to evaluate the correlation between echocardiographic parameters and fibrosis detected by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR).
Use HeprAN ™ membrane (coated with heparin) should be allow the success of dialysis sessions, with adequate dialysis parameters, in patients treated by long-term anticoagulation with VKA, without addition of heparin perdialytic. Less use of heparin (UFH or LMWH) during hemodialysis session should be allow a decrease of bleedings (moderate or major) and blood transfusions for hemodialysed patients with HeprAN ™ membrane and treated by long-term anticoagulation with VKA
This study will provide access to investigational anti-SARS-CoV-2 human convalescent plasma for pediatric patients with underlying medical conditions (cardiovascular disease, lung disease, immunosuppression) who are either infected with SARS-CoV-2 or who have had a high-risk exposure. Study participants will be transfused once with compatible convalescent plasma obtained from an individual who has recovered from documented infection with SARS-CoV-2. Safety information and pharmacokinetic data will be collected.
Introduction : . In Oman the prevalence of asthma was estimated to be 7.3% of adults and 12.7% of children . Magnesium sulphate is the second line treatment, many studies had shown that it has beneficial effect in treating acute asthma in children ; it reduces the hospital stay and the rate of admission as well as the ventilation rate . Aim : To compare single dose Magnesium sulphate that is typically given in the emergency department verses two doses of magnesium sulphate in treating acute moderate-severe asthma exacerbation in paediatric age group Research hypothesis : Children who are treated with two doses MgSO4 are more likely to have improvement in their PRAM score and are less likely to be admitted to the ward, HD or ICU Primary outcome : Improvement in PRAM (Paediatric respiratory assessment measure) score of acute asthma exacerbation Secondary outcome : Reduce admission rate to general ward, PICU and HD . Demonstrate the safety profile of double dose of magnesium sulphate. Study Design : prospective blinded randomized trial Study population : children age 3-13 years who presented to Royal hospital paediatric emergency with moderate-severe acute asthma Intervention : two doses magnesium sulphate Comparison : Placebo Outcome : Improvement in PRAM score
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of SHC014748M in patients with relapsed or refractory relapsed or refractory Peripheral T Cell Lymphoma.
This study evaluates the impact of educative videos on anxiety for patients entering hospital for cardiology intervention
Conscious sedation provides adequate control of pain and anxiety for the majority of routine endoscopic procedures as well as adequate amnesia. Sedation practices vary widely, with some colonoscopists advocating sedation only for the most difficult cases of colonoscopy, while others prefer using deep sedation or general anaesthesia for colonoscopy. However, many physicians are still using moderate sedation for the majority of patients. The use of propofol, a short acting anesthetic agent, for conscious sedation provides a considerably more rapid onset of action and shorter recovery time, for which it is believed to be a safe drug of choice for patients undergoing endoscopic procedures. Although propofol cannot be used as a single agent for moderate sedation, it can be effectively titrated to moderate sedation after administration of small doses of narcotics and sedatives. The aim of this study is to compare between general anesthesia and deep sedation using propofol-fentanyl-ketamine (PFK) preparation in terms of perioperative vital signs, intraoperative awareness, post-operative pain scores, and the use of analgesia postoperatively.
The investigators are doing this study and medical record review to measure simultaneous pressure and volume of the heart called pressure volumes loops before and after ventricular assist device placement for cardiogenic shock ( a severe form of heart failure). Standard of care measurements will be the sole measure of clinical determination. The investigators are measuring these PV loops to help determine which patients heart have recovered and can have the ventricular assist device removed. The investigators are also using the PV loop to indicate/correlate with certain outcomes to predict the need for LVAD patients to require additional support in the form of a right ventricular assist device. The medical record review will be performed pre-operatively, intra-operatively, and post-operatively until the day of discharge.
Barrett's oesophagus is a condition in which the area between the oesophagus and stomach no longer closes, allowing acidic contents of the stomach to enter the oesophagus and damage the lining. The project aims to assist clinicians by offering informed biopsy process, in which the system presents the operator with clinical outcomes of patients with visually similar GI tracts. The project goal is to assess the use of artificial intelligence-based similarity detection systems to better inform biopsy placement, increasing the reliability of bi-yearly inspections.
Fibrinolysis is the body's process that prevents blood clots. The investigators hypothesize that patients presenting with acute pulmonary embolism (PE) or blood clots in the lungs differ in their fibrinolytic deficit phenotype. The investigators aim to use biomarkers directly involved in endogenous fibrinolytic cascade including PAI-1, Alpha-2-Antiplasmin (A2A), TAFI, D-dimer, and Fibrinogen to phenotypically characterize patients presenting with acute PE and to correlate these biomarkers with clinical, echocardiographic, computed tomography (CT), and functional status outcomes.
