There are about 25560 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Germany. 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 objective of the ODOCOR II CCM lead study is to evaluate the safety and useability of the ODOCOR II intra-cardiac lead specifically intended to deliver CCM as an accessory lead to the Optimizer IPG.
Blood which recirculates through the circuit of a veno-venous Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (V-V ECMO) does not contribute to the systemic oxygenation of a patient on V-V ECMO and is called the recirculation fraction (Rf). Theoretically, the optimization of ECMO blood flow is possible using Rf measurements. A prospective, observational study will be performed measuring the Rf of total ECMO blood flow in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) on V-V ECMO with an ultrasound dilution technique. ECMO blood flow will be optimized by reducing ECMO blood flow in accordance with the measured Rf as long as systemic oxygenation is not compromised.
Multicenter, global, prospective, non-randomized, interventional, post-market trial. All subjects enrolled will receive an Abbott Valved Graft device.
This study aims to determine the relevant 'ingredients' to make the best possible self (BPS) intervention most efficacious and test whether the BPS's efficacy can be enhanced by including mindfulness aspects.
Catheter ablation is an established standard therapy in interventional treatment of atrial fibrillation.The trial investigates the influence of genetic risk for the recurrence of atrial fibrillation after catheter ablation.
The aim of the prospective, unicenter proof-of-principle study is to investigate the anti-neoplastic effectiveness of NIPP against CIN III lesions. - The aim of this project is to evaluate the potential of a previous NIPP treatment to significantly reduce the invasiveness of the LEEP excision. - Another aim of this study is to investigate cellular / molecular effects of NIPP following the in-vivo treatment of the cervix using molecular biological methods. For this purpose, tissue treated with plasma is taken after defined periods of time by mini biopsy and examined using molecular biological, histological and microscopic methods.
Radiation therapy is an integral part of the multimodal primary therapy of glioblastomas. As the overall prognosis in this tumor entity remains unfavorable, current research is focused on additional drug therapies, which are often accompanied by increases in toxicity. By using proton beams instead of photon beams, it is possible to protect large parts of the brain which are not affected by the tumor more effectively. An initial retrospective matched-pair analysis showed that this theoretical physical benefit is also clinically associated with a reduction in toxicity during therapy and in the first few months thereafter. The aim of the GRIPS study is to prospectively test this clinical benefit in a randomized, open-label Phase III study. Patients are treated in the study using either modern photon radiation techniques (standard arm) or proton beams (experimental arm). The primary endpoint is the cumulative toxicity CTC grade 2 and higher in the first 4 months. Secondary endpoints include overall survival, progression-free survival, quality of life, and neurocognition.

The purpose of this study is to prospectively collect clinical data evaluating the ongoing safety and performance during routine-use standard cardiac arrhythmia mapping and/or ablation procedures while using commercial Biosense Webster Inc. (BWI) medical devices. Data generated from the study will be used to confirm safety and performance of BWI medical devices in the marketed phase and to expand the body of evidence on the use of these devices and techniques in treatment of cardiac arrhythmias.
The study compares oxygen and NHF in patients with acute viral illness. The duration will be 72h. After them physiological parameters and the outcome will be evaluated.
