There are about 28871 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Canada. 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.
Extreme preterm infants (GA ≤ 28+6 weeks) are at high risk for bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) that has been associated with significant long-term impairment. Lung ultrasound score (LUSs) has the potential to early identify infants at high risk of developing BPD who may benefit from early intervention. Aim: To assess if LUS score can be utilized to predict the development of BPD in infants born at ≤ 28+6 weeks, early in their postnatal course, when the disease is likely to be most amenable to therapeutic intervention.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the safety and effectiveness of a nitric oxide releasing solution, delivered as a footbath, to act as an antimicrobial treatment for participants presenting with a diabetic foot ulcer.
After having a baby, there are some expected changes in pelvic floor function. However, tearing of the pelvic floor, having a large baby and needing a vacuum or forceps to deliver the baby put women at risk for having pelvic floor disorders. Our study aims to see if, in women who had a high risk for pelvic floor disorders, a pelvic floor education workshop four weeks after delivery can improve pelvic floor disorders compared to those that did not have a workshop.
In this study, a lipase -sourced from a nonpyrogenic yeast, Candida rugosa, will be investigated to establish optimal TG levels in adults in a 12-week supplementation period. The investigational product provides a lipase formulation that is stable and active in acidic and neutral pH environments, while also fully digesting TGs into free fatty acids and glycerol which is beyond the scope of pancreatic lipase (Schuler et al. 2012). This will be a novel study investigating the effects of C. rugosa lipase on adults with slightly elevated TG levels.
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 prevalence of suicidal ideation (SI) among adolescents in North America is high, making it critical to develop evidence-based brief interventions for adolescents with SI that target healthy coping skills and relationships. BRAVA is a novel brief group intervention for adolescents with mild to moderate SI and their caregivers; youth are taught skills for coping and relating more effectively with others. Caregivers learn about adolescent development, effective parenting and the importance of connection. The goal of the randomized controlled trial is to assess the efficacy of a virtually-delivered, brief group intervention for adolescents with mild to moderate SI and their caregivers in reducing SI.
The feasibility of an online maintenance exercise program for cancer survivors supported by health coaching.
This study is open to adults with diabetic kidney disease. The purpose of the study is to find out whether a medicine called BI 685509 improves kidney function. Three different doses of BI 685509 are tested in this study. Participants get either one of the three doses of BI 685509 or placebo. It is decided by chance who gets which BI 685509 dose and who gets placebo. Participants take BI 685509 or placebo as tablets 3 times a day. Placebo tablets look like BI 685509 tablets but do not contain any medicine. Participants continue taking their usual medicine for diabetes and kidney disease throughout the study. Participants are in the study for about 7 months. During this time, they visit the study site about 11 times. Where possible, about 6 of the 11 visits can be done at the participant's home instead of the study site. The trial staff may also contact the participants by phone or video call. Kidney function is assessed based on the analysis of urine samples, which participants collect at home. At the end of the trial the results are compared between the different doses of BI 685509 and placebo. During the study, the doctors also regularly check the general health of the participants.
This study is to evaluate of the accuracy of biomarkers (i.e. circulating endothelial and immune activation markers) that indicate progression to severe disease in patients with suspected COVID-19 in the Emergency Department. It is a prospective observational study of patients presenting to emergency departments with a clinical suspicion of COVID19. All participants will have plasma samples collected for biomarker analysis, and will be tested for SARS-CoV-2 infection with a nasopharyngeal swab. Participants will be managed according to the best local practices.
Randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial comparing 2 doses of SY-005 (recombinant human Annexin A5) to placebo in patients with severe coronavirus 2019 disease in a single hospital centre with 2 intensive care units
