There are about 13446 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Belgium. The country of the clinical trial is determined by the location of where the clinical research is being studied. Most studies are often held in multiple locations & countries.
Comparison of twà different nociception monitors during general anesthesia
This study aims to show that giving high dose, intravenous vitamin C in addition to standard care to burned critically ill patients will be associated with less organ dysfunction, improved survival and a quicker rate of recovery. In this study, all patients will receive standard care and of the patients will also receive high dose intravenous vitamin C, while the other half of patients will receive placebo.
Treatment of neutropenia of G6PC3 and Glycogenosis type 1b patients with empagliflozin
Study of the effects of intranasal sufentanil on patients presenting to the emergency department with acute post-traumatic pain.
This is a long-term, prospective, interventional study to investigate the role and prevalence of subclinical epileptiform activity in the hippocampus in patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) due to Alzheimer's disease (AD). The investigators would like to investigate whether subclinical epileptiform activity in the hippocampus is more prevalent in patients with MCI, compared to healthy controls and to evaluate its effects on cognitive decline. Evolution of cognitive decline will be assessed over a time period of two years.
The aim of the project is to evaluate the efficacy of the Cyberlegs X-leg in people with a unilateral transfemoral (above the knee joint) and transtibial (under the knee joint) amputation. De Cyberlegs X-leg is in continuation of the development of the Cyberlegs gamma-prototype (B.U.N. 143201732970; FAMHP reference number: 80M0725). The Cyberlegs X-leg is a motorized prosthesis which replaces the amputated part of the leg. Our hypothesis is that people with a lower limb amputation perform daily activities (e.g. walking, stair climbing, sit to stand, et cetera) easier, more comfortable and more efficient with the X-leg compared to their current prosthesis. Assessments will be based on a holistic approach in which biomechanical, physiological and psychological parameters are determined.
The aim of this trial is to compare two different ways of CPAP titration: CAP titration with fixed pressure vs. auto-titrating CPAP.
Almost 50% of all children have at least 1 episode of noisy breathing before the age of 2 years and almost 25% of these children have more episodes of noisy breathing. The lack of an objective technique for diagnosing noisy breathing children often leads to overrated diagnosis of "wheezing", whereas there may be other noisy breathing phenotypes, like "rattling", that don't favor from the same therapeutic treatment. Presumably, different underlying pathophysiological mechanisms are involved with different biomarker profiles characteristic for different phenotypes. The goal of this study is to optimize the diagnosis of noisy breathing infants and toddlers. Children will be followed for a treatment period of 6 weeks and will visit the paediatrician 3 times (week 0, 3 and 6). During the consultations breath sound analysis will be performed and a breath sample and a nasal mucus will be collected to analyse biomarker profiles. Both methods for diagnosing noisy breathing infants are non-invasive and will be compared to the standard procedure of the paediatrician which consists of auscultation and palpation of the chest. An objective and non-invasive method for diagnosing noisy breathing infants and toddler will pave the way for more cost-effective and personalized prescription of therapies which will increase the quality of life of children with noisy breathing.
The aim of this research is to study the influence of stochastic modulated vibrations on the autonomic nervous system of breast cancer patients during radiation therapy
The investigators want to obtain a fundamental understanding if and which chemotherapeutic agents used for treating cancer during pregnancy are associated with placental and/or offspring (epi)genetic changes, potentially causing FGR and childhood/adult diseases later in life.
