There are about 9403 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Switzerland. 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 aims are to compare Direct His Bundle Pacing (DHBP) with biventricular pacing (BiV) in terms of electrical resynchronization using electrocardiographic imaging (ECGI) and also in terms of acute hemodynamical effect using finger plethysmography and conduction velocimetry. The study will be a randomized crossover design with acute measurements.
To date it is unknown how physical activity levels in adults is limited before and after lumbar spine surgery and if physical activity level is associated with disability and limitations of quality of life. The main objective is to compare physical activity preoperatively and 6 and 12 weeks postoperatively in patients undergoing lumbar spine surgery with norm data. In addition, the investigators will study the association of changes in physical activity, disability and quality of live.
Goal of the current project is the development of a German-language test battery for a realistic investigation of core areas of social issues Cognition (emotion, perspective taking). This test battery should be used in the investigation of patients with neuropsychological disorders. Investigators plan to establish a German-version of the TASIT that is more sensitive and shorter in administration than the original TASIT.
Randomised controlled prospective trial with 2 groups (active group with Lumbar plexus block (LPB)-catheter vs control group). In a randomized controlled trial, the investigators will investigate under controlled circumstances the effect of a LPB-catheter placed with ultrasound guided "Shamrock"-technique to improve postoperative pain treatment after unilateral open hip and femoral surgery in paediatric patients. The investigators will investigate the effect on opioid consumption and the reduction of opioid related side effects during the first 24 postoperative hours
The primary purpose of the study was to compare the efficacy and safety of canakinumab versus placebo as adjuvant therapy in adult subjects with stages II -IIIA according to the 8th edition of the American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC)/Union for International Cancer Control (UICC) and the subset of IIIB (T>5cm N2 disease) completely resected (R0) non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
This study will evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of VX-659 in triple combination (TC) with tezacaftor (TEZ) and ivacaftor (IVA) in subjects with cystic fibrosis (CF) who are homozygous or heterozygous for the F508del mutation.
This study will evaluate the efficacy of VX-659 in triple combination (TC) with tezacaftor (TEZ) and ivacaftor (IVA) in subjects with cystic fibrosis (CF) who are heterozygous for F508del and a minimal function mutation (F/MF subjects).
The patient undergoes arthroscopic surgery to treat rotator cuff injury. At the end of the surgery, the patient will be randomized into group A (brace) or group B (normal sling). Both groups will be also treated according to standard of care with physiotherapy and progressive introduction of movements.
Patients with a trans-femoral amputation who experienced problems, complications pain due to the ischial weight bearing and discomfort with conventional socket prosthesis will be proposed to implant a new developed prosthesis.
A research study to evaluate the activity of alectinib for the Treatment of pretreated patients with advanced NSCLC that have confirmed RETrearrangement.
