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 aim of this non-interventional study is to describe patient's perception of anticoagulant treatment when using Pradaxa® to prevent stroke and systemic embolism while suffering from atrial fibrillation (according to its approved indication in the approved dosages of 110 mg or 150 mg twice daily) in comparison to standard care using Vitamin K Antagonist (VKA).
Infantile colic is condition that affects more than 10% of babies and their families. The reason, and hence proper treatment, for this condition is unknown and many causes have been suggested. One of the treatments that parents choose is chiropractic manipulation. In Denmark, almost 10,000 babies are each year treated by chiropractors, and a high proportion is due to colic. However, the effect of chiropractic treatment of infantile colic has not been properly scientifically evaluated. The effects of chiropractic treatment on infantile colic needs to be investigated, since this is a very common disorder with no known effective treatment, but with good empirical evidence of the value of chiropractic treatment. Although it is usually considered to be a benign and self-limiting condition, some studies suggest there might be long-term effects in terms of psychomotor problems. In worst case, the infants' crying may also lead to violence and 'shaken baby syndrome'. Null hypothesis: There is no effect of chiropractic treatment on the course of infantile colic. This study is a controlled, clinical trial where infants fulfilling the diagnostic criteria for colic will be randomized into two groups. One group will receive treatment and the other won't. This will determine the overall effect and furthermore, subgroup analyses will be performed to identify possible subgroups of infants, who will benefit the most from the treatment.
Abstract Background Studies have shown that delirium in medical and surgical intensive care units (ICUs) increases mortality, length of stay (LOS) as well as the risk of dementia symptoms and cerebral atrophy after discharge. Only few studies have investigated delirium in the neurointensive care unit (N-ICU). Delirium is most often assessed by one of two instruments: Intensive Care Delirium Screening Checklist (ICDSC) or the Confusion Assessment Method for the ICU (CAM-ICU). Aims 1. To measure the effect of a systematic intervention (sedation, sleep, mobilization and pain) on delirium symptoms in patients with acute acquired brain injury in N-ICU. 2. To validate the ICDSC and CAM-ICU to patients with acute acquired brain injury Method The design of the study is a two-phase interventional trial. Based on a power calculation, 56 patients will be enrolled both in the baseline and the intervention group (n=112). Part 1: A baseline investigation will be conducted to establish prevalence, duration and type of delirium symptoms in patients with acute acquired brain injury before implementing the intervention bundle. Part 2: A systematic Intervention protocol will be implemented in the N-ICU. The Intervention elements consist of a sedation, sleep, mobilization and pain treatment regimen based on the newest available evidence. Enrolled patients will be contacted 12 months after discharge for a follow-up including a quality of life with (EuroQoL-5D) questionnaire, a cognitive test measuring their cognitive end point (Repeatable Battery for Assessment of the Neuropsychological Status) and a short test for dementia symptoms (MMSE, Mini Mental State Examination).
Patients who undergo abdominal wall reconstruction for giant ventral hernia repair will be randomized to either methylprednisolone or saline preoperatively, to examine the effects of methylprednisolone on postoperative pain, nausea and recovery after giant ventral hernia repair.
The objective is to investigate the impact that faecal output has on adhesives.
This trial compares the haemostatic effect of viscoelastic haemostatic assay (VHA)-guided transfusion strategy versus non-VHA guided transfusion strategy in haemorrhaging trauma patients. Half of the randomised patients will receive VHA-led management of bleeding, whilst the other half will receive massive transfusion protocol resuscitation using conventional coagulation tests.
The main objective of the trial is to complete a double-blinded randomized controlled trial with crossover design of a lumbosacral plexus block with the Suprasacral Parallel Shift technique guided by ultrasound/magnetic resonance (MR) image fusion vs. Suprasacral Parallel Shift guided by ultrasound by estimating sensory block of the femoral nerve, the obturator nerve, the lumbosacral trunk, and spinal nerve L1 in healthy volunteers.
This study evaluates the difference between Non Invasive Ventilation with Neurally Adjusted Ventilatory Assist (NIV-NAVA) and Conventional Non Invasive Ventilation with Pressure Support (PS) or Pressure Control (PC). All the patients are ventilated in each mode for 4 hours. Afterwards they will be subjected to a semi-structured interview where they will be asked to compare the two modes. The hypothesis is that NIV-NAVA will correct patients power of Hydrogen (pH), PaCO2 og PaO2 more quickly than NIV-PS and NIV-NAVA is more comfortable for the patients.
The purpose of this study is to describe the characteristics of patients treated with different OATs and whether these characteristics differ between treatments. Furthermore to describe persistence to each OAT and risk of bleeding after initiating each OAT.
The main purpose of this study is to test the hypothesis that treatment with mirikizumab is superior to placebo in providing clinical benefit to participants with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis (UC). This study will also investigate how the body processes the drug.
