There are about 10004 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Brazil. 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 this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of niraparib in combination with abiraterone acetate plus prednisone (AAP) compared to AAP and placebo.
In this study researchers want to gain more information on treatment patterns of patients treated with Xarelto in combination with acetylsalicylic acid (ASA). Both drugs reduce the risk of blood clots via different pathways. The study will enroll adult patients suffering from coronary artery disease (narrowing or blockage of vessels that supply the heart with blood) or peripheral artery disease (narrowing or blockage of vessels that supply the legs or head with blood). The study will focus on information on when and why physicians are starting to treat patients with Xarelto in addition to ASA, treatment duration, reasons to discontinue treatment and previous therapies. The study will also look into treatment outcomes for patients being treated with a combination of Xarelto and ASA by their physicians.
Pain is a public health condition, which causes great functional disability. Its consequences pervade the personal and social life of the patient, leading to significant changes in their interpersonal relationships, including work, family and social spheres, reducing the ability to perform daily activities. Conventional treatment modalities have been show a very poor therapeutic response, in that most individuals end up becoming polymedicated patients and refractory to treatment. Among non-pharmacological techniques with promising analgesic effects it includes both the hypnotic analgesia and the transcranial stimulation of direct current (tDCS).
This phase II/IIII trial studies how well haloperidol and lorazepam work in controlling symptoms of persistent agitated delirium in patients with cancer that has spread to other places in the body undergoing palliative care. Haloperidol and lorazepam may help in controlling symptoms of agitated delirium in patients with cancer and may lessen any distress that their caregivers may be experiencing.
This study quantified the displacement of the center of pressure in the computer in real time and record this data for future analyzes
Numerous instrumentation techniques have been suggested for the nonsurgical retreatment of teeth with primary failure of endodontic therapy in laboratory studies. However, there is limited clinical evidence about those different techniques. The objective of this study is to compare the prevalence and intensity of postoperative pain, as well as the success rate after endodontic retreatment with hand or engine-driven reciprocating instrumentation. A randomized clinical trial will be performed, considering two comparison groups: hand preparation with stainless steel instruments or engine-driven reciprocating preparation with the Reciproc NiTi System (VDW, Munich, Germany), to verify which technique would lead to lower postoperative pain levels and higher endodontic success rates. Secondary outcomes related to technique efficiency will be also registered, evaluating the capacity of filling material removal and the time spent on the clinical procedures. Eighty individuals who need endodontic retreatment in single-rooted teeth will be selected (n=40/group). Endodontic reintervention will be carried out in two visits. Periapical radiographs taken after root filling removal protocols will be transferred to an image analysis software. Then, the percentage of remaining filling material in relation to the total area of the root canal will be evaluated. The clinical time spent with the removal procedure protocol will be registered, in minutes, by a digital stopwatch. After each visit, postoperative pain will be assessed using a numerical rating scale. The record of pain and analgesic drug intake will be performed in 12, 24, 48 hours and 7 days after the clinical procedures. Success rates will be evaluated after 3, 6, 12 and 24 months, through clinical and radiographic examination, considering the Periapical Index, a 5-point score system. Data of both groups (percentage of remaining debris, operating time, postoperative pain, clinical and radiographic success) will be analyzed for normality by the Shapiro-Wilk test. Assuming normal distribution, the data will be compared by t test. Pearson's correlation coefficient will be applied to detect possible correlations between the evaluated outcomes. Differences will be considered significant at P=0.05.
Because of its pharmacokinetic characteristics, such as short half-life and its safety profile, esmolol hydrochloride is a beta blocker suitable for venous use in the form of continuous infusion. Strategies that improve the blood pressure control of patients with hemorrhagic stroke during the first hours of hospitalization are determinant in controlling the hematoma expansion and determining factor in its prognosis. This study was designed with the objective of evaluating the beneficial effects of combining esmolol hydrochloride with sodium nitroprusside for the blood pressure control of participants with hemorrhagic stroke.
Aim: To compare the effects of parasacral transcutaneous electrical stimulation with transcutaneous posterior tibial nerve stimulation on the symptoms of Overactive Bladder in women. Study's hypothesis: The use of the parasacral transcutaneous electrical stimulation technique presents better results regarding the remission of overactive bladder symptoms in relation to transcutaneous posterior tibial nerve stimulation.
The reason for this study is to compare the study drug LY900014 to insulin lispro (Humalog) in children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes (T1D).
INTRODUCTION: The axillary lymphadenectomy procedure is known to be associated with late postoperative complications, such as chronic pain and changes in shoulder mobility. Recently, several thoracic ultrasound guided interfascial blocks have been described, including serratus plane block. These blocks were associated with reduced postoperative pain scores in breast surgeries but were never evaluated in axillary dissection. The safety and feasibility of performing axillary dissection under local anesthesia and tumescent anesthesia associated with sedation has been demonstrated in case series, although it is not already the standard technique. DISCUSSION: This project aims to investigate the feasibility of the serratus plane block associated with intra-venous sedation in a prospective case series including 15 patients submitted to axillary dissection, by scoring patient and surgeon satisfaction with the technique, pain, quality of life with EORTC QLQ-C30 questionnaire, and quality of recovery with QoR-40 questionnaire in the first 30 postoperative days.
