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 primary objective of this post market clinical follow-up (PMCF) investigation is to confirm the safety and performance of Avance®Solo and Avance®Solo Adapt NPWT Systems in low to moderate exuding chronic wounds when used in accordance with the Instructions for Use, for up to 28 days.
Heads of all psychosomatic, psychiatric and psychological consultation and liaison (C&L) services in acute care hospitals across all participating countries will be contacted and asked to participate in this international cross-sectional online survey. The survey consists of questions about care structures and their utilisation that psychosomatic, psychiatric and psychological C&L services have established in acute hospitals in the context of the COVID 19 pandemic.
The aim of the study is to explore the criteria and conditions for the integration of sensor technology in disposable pads according to the needs and opinions of residents with incontinence, healthcare workers, and policymakers in nursing homes.
Therefore, the aim of this study was to confirm by a randomized double-blind controlled study the beneficial effects of saffron extract (Saffr'activ®) on sleep quality in subjects presenting mild to moderate sleep disorder associated with anxiety.
The Nexercise-trial is a blended treatment program for patients with chronic non-specific neck pain. We will investigate whether a blended treatment approach, combining specific neck exercises and general aerobic exercises, has better outcome (on medical impact for the patient and socio-economic impact) than a specific neck exercise program alone or a general aerobic exercise program alone.
In this clinical trial the effect of early administration of Vitamin C is investigated in patients admitted at the emergency department with sepsis or septic shock. When a patient has sepsis, his/her body is causing damage to its own tissues and organs as result of an infection. This can lead to septic shock. The patient has a low blood pressure, his/her organs stop working and the patient may even die. The aim of this trial is to investigate the efficiency of Vitamin C in sepsis and septic shock. Vitamin C is a vitamin present in various foods and has been approved as dietary supplement by the Belgian authorities. Over the years it has been proven that Vitamin C is very safe. In addition, several studies have shown that Vitamin C can also have a protective effect. It can reduce organ damage and increase survival rates. Although several studies suggest that Vitamin C can help fight sepsis, it is not yet used in practice. This Belgian trial, in which several hospitals participate, hopes to provide a clear answer to the question: "Should Vitamin C be administered to patients admitted in an emergency department with sepsis or septic shock?"
Coagulation within the dialyzer membrane fibres is an obvious biological sign of bio-incompatibility. To avoid clotting during extracorporeal treatment, an anticoagulant is added to the circuit, resulting in an increased risk for bleeding complications. In addition, there is evidence that a substantial number of fibers can become blocked before this is reflected in routinely observed parameters, or in termination of the dialysis session. Little is known about the impact of such subclinical clotting on dialyzer performance in terms of solute clearance. Membrane clogging may influence both the diffusive and convective transport characteristics of the dialyzer membrane before leading to complete dialyzer clotting. In 2018, we described a method to objectively count the number of blocked fibres inside a dialyzer using a micro-CT scanning technique. In the present trial, we use this method to assess the number of open fibers post dialysis, and this for three different dialysis durations and in two different dialyzer types. Just before the termination of the dialysis session, dialyzer clearance is assessed for different solutes from concentration measurements in blood samples as taken from the dialyzer inlet and outlet line. The aim of this randomized cross-over study is to objectively quantify the impact of blocked fibers on the performance of different dialyzer membranes: ATA™ (asymmetric triacetate) membrane in the Solacea™ dialyzer, and polysulfone membrane in the FX800Cordiax dialyzer, and this with a decreased anticoagulation dose.
The primary objective of this study is to determine the safety, and evaluate the efficacy of GS-248 versus placebo on Raynaud's Phenomenon (RP) in subjects with Systemic Sclerosis (SSc).
Because of these anabolic properties of ketone bodies and the fact that ketone bodies prevent muscle protein breakdown for gluconeogenesis during energetic stress, ketone bodies can be a promising strategy to prevent or treat skeletal muscle wasting. Therefore, our aim is to investigate the effect of 3HHB intake on muscle wasting and its adverse consequences during a period of caloric restriction in lean females. In addition, we compare the effects of 3HHB intake with a high protein diet, which is currently considered as the best strategy to minimize lean loss during hypo-energetic periods. To end, we aim to investigate the synergistic effects of the intake of 3HHB in combination with a high protein diet.
