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.
The purpose of our study is to assess the impact of pulmonary rehabilitation on objective sleep quality in COPD patients.
Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is the most common visual complication of diabetes. Risk factors for developing DR are diabetes duration, glycemic control, and hypertension . The prevalence ranges from 17 to 61% according to the diabetes duration . Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is very frequent in Type 2 Diabetes population, reaching a prevalence of 23-48% . Few is known about the exact role of OSAS in the development of DR. A recent study has shown that OSAS is an independent predictor for the progression to pre-/proliferative DR. The purpose of the present study is to assess if the presence of OSA in diabetic patients is a predictive factor for DR occurrence.
The purpose of the study is to assess the effects of regular Viniyoga in patients suffering from primary insomnia.
The aim of the present study is to assess the metabolic impact of Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy and overview the obstacles and important factors compromising the use of Indirect Calorimetry in CRRT and suggest a model to overcome these issues.
The main objective is to assess long term safety of treatment with oral nintedanib in patients with Systemic Sclerosis associated Interstitial Lung Disease (SSc-ILD).
The prevention of perioperative atrial fibrillation (AF) and myocardial injury after non-cardiac surgery (MINS) has the potential to reduce mortality, stroke, and hospital stays in patients undergoing major thoracic surgery. Data from cardiac surgery patients suggest that prevention of perioperative atrial fibrillation using an anti-inflammatory agent, such as colchicine, is feasible. The COP-AF trial will assess whether the administration of oral colchicine will reduce the incidence of perioperative atrial fibrillation and myocardial injury after non-cardiac surgery in patients undergoing major thoracic surgery.
Phase 1 Multiple Ascending Dose Study in Normal Healthy Volunteers
The aim of this study is to determine which factors could be at risk of delayed extubation after cardiac surgery.
Hepatic impairment PK study
This is a prospective single-center cohort trial to compare regional bronchial recruitment, bronchial distention and alveolar recruitment in 6 patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). The investigators used CT scan images as the imaging modality, and the subjects were scanned on end-expiratory lung volume with different positive end-expiratory pressures. Those images were post-processed to evaluate the airways.
