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.
The purpose of this study is to describe gastrointestinal (GI) motility in patients suffering from severe Ulcerative Colitis (UC) and to compare these results with similar results from a study on healthy subjects. Both studies are done with the use of Motilis 3D-Transit system which consists of a small electronic capsule ingested and detected by a receiver carried by the patient. Position and orientation of the capsule are interpreted by dedicated computer software and transit times, progression velocity and contraction frequencies can be revealed. The study is mainly descriptive and is designed to test and evaluate the usefulness of the Motilis 3D Transit system in UC patients and to tell us more about GI motility during severe inflammation. Motilis 3D-Transit system gives us a unique chance to study the gastrointestinal canal as a whole during severe illness. We expect to include 20 patients suffering from severe UC admitted to Hospital with the purpose of getting medical treatment. We do not expect any drop out, but in case of drop out a new patient will be included.
The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of fluid restriction and the neurohormonal mechanisms in the development of hyponatremia in patients with congestive heart failure and hyponatremia. The hypothesis is that strict fluid restriction leads to a larger increase in plasma sodium than standard treatment in patients with decompensated heart failure associated with hyponatremia. A secondary hypothesis is that the neurohormonal change is greater in patients treated with strict fluid restriction versus standard treatment.
The relationship between the activation of the vasopressin system and central hemodynamics in heart failure (including right and left heart filling pressures and cardiac output) is not clear. The investigators intend to examine the correlation between levels of copeptin and vasopressin and the central hemodynamic system in patients with advanced (class III or IV) heart failure. The investigators also aim to examine the relationship of selected cardiac biomarkers in blood and urine with cardiac filling pressures and cardiac output in patients with decompensated heart failure. The study population will consist of 30 patients admitted to the Department of Cardiology at Copenhagen University Hospital. Only patients for whom the attending cardiologist has already decided upon right heart catheterization for clinical/treatment reasons will be recruited for the study.
The purpose of this study is to describe gastrointestinal (GI) motility in patients suffering from severe Ulcerative Colitis (UC) and to compare these results with similar results obtained in remission. The study is done with the use of Motilis 3D-Transit system which consists of a small electronic capsule ingested and detected by a receiver carried by the patient. Position and orientation of the capsule are interpreted by dedicated computer software and transit times, progression velocity and contraction frequencies can be revealed. The study is mainly descriptive and is designed to test and evaluate the usefulness of the Motilis 3D Transit system in UC patients and to tell investigators more about GI motility during and after severe inflammation. Motilis 3D-Transit system gives investigators a unique chance to study the gastrointestinal canal as a whole during and after severe illness. The investigators expect to include 20 patients suffering from severe UC admitted to Hospital with the purpose of getting medical treatment. The investigators do not expect any drop out, but in case of drop out a new patient will be included.
Meniscus does not always heal when sutured. The investigators will make small holes in the meniscus before repair to promote more bleeding. The investigators expect that will help the meniscus to heal better.
Mallet finger is an avulsion of the extensor tendon at its insertion on the base of the distal phalanx, with or without fracture. Treatment af mallet finger fractures involving more than 1/3 of the articulating surface is controversial. There are to our knowledge no randomized controlled trials comparing splinting and surgical treatment with extension block technique. The aim of this study is to compare splinting and surgical extension block fixation of mallet finger fractures in a randomized controlled trial.Our hypothesis is that conservative treatment with splinting is comparable to surgical treatment concerning functional outcome, and may even reduce the complication rates.
This six center international study will include two United Kingdom National Health Service centers, two centers in Melbourne, Australia and one center each in Denmark and Spain. The objective of the study is to evaluate subject acceptance of the a new insulin pump and transmitter together with the accompanying training materials. Descriptive data from participant questionnaires and device uploads will be evaluated. Pediatric subjects between the ages of 7 - 18 years and adults from the age of 19 years of age upwards, who currently use an insulin pump in the management of their type 1 or type 2 diabetes, will be invited to participate. Each subject will be trained on the study device and then use it for approximately six weeks. During this time there will be three in-clinic visits and four follow-up phone calls, scheduled at the subjects' convenience. At the end of this period, they will revert back to their original insulin pump and complete a questionnaire on the study pump training materials, features and usability.
The purpose of the CAMONA study is to demonstrate the feasibility of cardiovascular molecular calcification (CMC) assessment by means of 18F-sodium-fluoride (18F-NaF) positron emission tomography (PET) computed tomography (CT) in a prospective cohort of healthy control subjects and subjects with cardiovascular disease.
The aim of the study is to investigate how the retina adapts to different metabolic challenges, e.g. chronic systemic hypoxia, hyperglycemia, special training conditions or diets as well as transient changes in the content of oxygen and glucose in the blood.
