There are about 11304 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Denmark. 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.
Antibiotic dosing in critically ill patients poses a challenge for clinicians due to the pharmacokinetic changes seen in this population. Piperacillin/tazobactam is often used for empirical treatment, and initial appropriate dosing is crucial for reducing mortality. Patients in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU), treated with piperacillin/tazobactam, had their plasma concentration of piperacillin determined 1-3 times weekly. Patients received piperacillin as intermittent bolus infusion 3 times daily or as continuous infusion (this was up to the treating physician). Time above the minimal inhibitory concentration (T>MIC) estimated for each patient was evaluated against clinical breakpoint MIC for Pseudomonas aeruginosa (16 mg/L). Pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic (PK-PD) targets evaluated were 100% f T>MIC (free piperacillin concentration maintained above the MIC throughout the dosing interval) and 50% fT>4xMIC (free piperacillin concentration maintained at a level fourfold the MIC for at least 50% of the dosing interval).
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the initial short and long-term safety and performance of the CardiAQ™ Transcatheter Mitral Valve Implantation System using the Transapical Delivery System. The study will enroll patients with moderate to severe mitral valve regurgitation who are considered high or extreme risk for mortality and morbidity from conventional open heart surgery.
A clinical study evaluating acute and chronic pain following laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair comparing the ProGripTM self- fixating mesh with tack fixation.
To investigate the effects of patient counseling by telephone on Quality of Life and the use of Health care system.
Although recommended therapy for patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction is primary PCI, it remains unestablished whether patients with a symptom duration of more 12 hours benefit from acute revascularisation. This study aims to investigate whether acute intervention is superior to subacute intervention in these patients.
Per Health Authorities guidelines for gene therapy medicinal products that utilize integrating vectors (e.g. lentiviral vectors), long term safety and efficacy follow up of treated patients is required. The purpose of this study is to monitor all patients exposed to CAR-T therapied for 15 years following their last CAR-T (e.g. CTL019) infusion to assess the risk of delayed adverse events (AEs), monitor for replication competent lentivirus (RCL) and assess long-term efficacy, including vector persistence.
This study investigates, in a randomized setting, the use of intermittent in-cast pneumatic foot-compression (IPC) in the preoperative treatment of malleolar fractures. This is to investigate whether the IPC has any effect on preventing swelling of the ankle, and thereby preventing delay of surgery due to swelling. The investigators will include patients with malleolar fractures that require surgery in two groups, IPC and bandage or bandage only, and measure the time from diagnosis-to-surgery.
The aim is, in a randomized controlled trial, to test the feasibility and evaluate the efficacy of an internet-based treatment for insomnia, previously tested in a group of 28 US cancer patients, in a large sample of Danish breast cancer survivors who are experiencing significant sleep problems 0-3 years after treatment. The investigators aim to test the following hypotheses: That a group receiving Internet-delivered cognitive-behavioral therapy (CCBT) for insomnia (CCBT-I) will experience reduced sleep latency, more hours of sleep, fewer awakenings during the night, improved sleep efficiency, increased subjective sleep quality, and improved quality of life after the intervention, when compared to a waiting list control group. The investigators also aim to explore a number of possible moderators of the effect (comorbidity, depression, fear of cancer recurrence tendency to ruminate) and mediating mechanisms (changes in sleep habits and sleep-related lifestyle factors).
The present study is a randomized controlled trial (RCT) that examines if the outcome of peptic ulcer bleeding could be improved by use of doppler-guided endoscopic treatment.
Specially educated trainers will be responsible for colonoscopy training of junior doctors. The educated trainers will have attended seminars held by Valori et al. The following fast track colonoscopy training program for junior doctors will consist of: 1) Endoscopy simulation training and theory course 2) supervised and partly supervised lower endoscopy. 3) Directly observed practical skills according graded by MCSAT (Mayo Clinical Skills Assessment Tool) .
