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.
Transobturator tapes (TOT) are placed according to the surgical technique described by Delorme et al. in patients with a previous cervico-sacropexy (CESA) or vagino-sacropexy (VASA). Before final Fixation of the tapes and suturing the vaginal skin a Hegar dilator sound with either 8 mm or 6 mm diameter is placed in the urethra and a second Hegar dilator sound with either 4 mm or 3 mm diameter is placed between the tape and the urethra. After suturing the vaginal skin the Hegar sounds are removed.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether an undirected synovial biopsy technique has the same accuracy in detecting periprosthetic joint infection in the knee as an arthroscopic assisted directed synovial biopsy technique.
Primary Objective To substantiate the efficacy of 2.2 g FLEXISEQ® for the treatment of pain related to osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee in patients contraindicated for or with clinical intolerance to NSAIDs. Secondary Objectives - To substantiate the efficacy of 2.2 g FLEXISEQ® for the treatment of stiffness and improvement of joint function in patients contraindicated for or with clinical intolerance to NSAIDs and with OA of the knee. - To substantiate safety and tolerability of 2.2 g FLEXISEQ® in patients contraindicated for or with clinical intolerance to NSAIDs and with OA of the knee.
This is a single-center, randomized, two treatment groups, open, phase IV clinical study in subjects with atrial fibrillation and left atrial thrombus. At Visit 0 (Screening Visit) subjects with left atrial thrombus established in transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) are eligible to entry in the study. If the subjects fulfill all other in- and exclusion criteria and undersign the informed consent the baseline cranial magnet resonance imaging (MRI) can be performed followed by randomization to one of the two treatment groups (Phenprocoumon or Dabigatran) at Visit 1 (Baseline Visit). The subjects will be treated for 12 months with Phenprocoumon (INR adjusted once daily) or Dabigatran 150 mg twice daily. Routinely clinical follow up visits will be done at week 4, month 3, month 6, month 9 and month 12. Follow up TEE will be performed after 4 weeks and after 12 months also the follow up cranial MRI at this visit. If the subject was randomized in the VKA group routinely INR measurements will performed.
MYKKE is a prospective multi-center registry for children and adolescents with myocarditis. The aim is to generate prospective multi-center data on epidemiology, diagnostics, and therapy of pediatric patients with myocarditis in order to enable evidence-based diagnostic and therapeutic approaches for this myocardial disease.
Aim of the study is to reduce the incidence of RIFLE stadium L and E after acute kidney injury in patients with severe sepsis/septic shock
In the study, NextGen SE are on-hand a cohort comprising each 50 pediatric and 50 adult patients, and in which there are an unclear movement disorder or an unclear cognitive disorder, examines the following questions : Primary: - Number of diagnoses made by NGS Secondary: 1. restriction of the quality of life by unclear disease 2. Cost of not purposeful preliminary diagnostics ( beyond the minimal diagnostic data set ) 3. Impact of the diagnosis to therapy and follow-up examinations 4. Time to diagnosis
54 patients with idiopathic Parkinson's disease and freezing of gait resistant to subthalamic nucleus stimulation and dopaminergic medication will be included into this multicentre randomised controlled double-blinded parallel group clinical trial. The treatment consists of two different stimulation settings using (i) conventional stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus [standard STN] as active comparator and (ii) combined stimulation of active electrode contacts located in both the subthalamic nucleus and substantia nigra pars reticulata [STN+SNr].
CPC REGISTRY is a multi-center, international, prospective, open-label, observational study on the use of injectable calcium phosphate cements for the treatment of bone defects in adults. All patients will be treated with any of the two injectable calcium phosphate bone substitutes (GRAFTYS®HBS/GRAFTYS®Quickset or their private labels) according to standard clinical practice and according to the information provided by GRAFTYS manufacturer in respective device Instructions For Use (IFU).
The purpose of this study is to study the epidemiology of non-CF bronchiectasis (NCFB) and to provide an estimate of the distribution (prevalence) of NCFB etiologies across all different levels of health care as well as real-life data regarding the current management of NCFB in Germany.
