NCT ID: NCT01535261 Completed - Macular Edema Clinical Trials

Ranibizumab Intravitreal Injections in Patients With Visual Impairment Due to Macular Edema Secondary to Central Retinal Vein Occlusion

CRYSTAL
Start date: February 2012
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The present study will provide additional efficacy and safety data for 0.5-mg ranibizumab using as needed (PRN) dosing over 24 months in patients with visual impairment due to macular edema secondary to Central Retinal Vein Occlusion (CRVO). Spectral domain high-definition optical coherence tomography (OCT) images will be analyzed to gain insights into predictive factors for disease progression and the possibility of reduced monitoring will be assessed in Year 2. The results of this open-label study will provide long-term safety and efficacy data to further guide recommendations on the use of ranibizumab in this indication.

NCT ID: NCT01535001 Completed - Clinical trials for Osteoarthritis of the Knee

Structured Non-operative Treatment of Knee Osteoarthritis

Start date: February 2012
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to test whether an algorithm for systematic non-surgical treatment consisting of corrective insoles, neuromuscular training, weight loss, patient education and pharmacological treatment with paracetamol, non steroidal anti inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and Pantoprazole provides further improvement in pain, function and quality of life than standard non-surgical treatment (information on the disease and how to treat it) in patients with knee osteoarthritis. The H1-hypothesis is that the treatment algorithm results in a greater increase in quality of life and functional capacity and greater reduction in pain than standard treatment at the primary endpoint, which is follow-up 12months after the start of the treatment. See statistical analysis plan available under "Links" for further description of the study.

NCT ID: NCT01534780 Completed - Ventral Hernia Clinical Trials

3 Fixation Devices in Laparoscopic Ventral Herniotomy

FS
Start date: April 2013
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Clinical, controlled, randomized, prospective study. Ventral hernias between 2(1.5)cm and 7 cm, laparoscopic surgery with intraperitoneal onlay mesh. Three randomization groups of 25 patients giving a total of 75 patients. Mesh is fixated with either Protack, Securestrap or Glubran II. Primary outcome: postoperative pain on the 2nd postoperative day. Secondary outcomes: pain, quality of life, recurrence and adhesions at 1, 6, 12, 24, 36, 48 and 60 months postoperative.

NCT ID: NCT01534312 Completed - Clinical trials for Inflammatory Bowel Diseases

Casein Glycomacropeptide in Active Distal Ulcerative Colitis (Pilot Study)

Start date: January 2012
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Casein glycomacropeptide (CGMP) has anti-inflammatory properties in experimental rodent colitis and using human in vitro inflammation models. Its use as a food ingredient has proven safe and with no influence on dietary intake. We hypothesize that orally administered CGMP has a beneficial effect comparable to that of mesalazine in active distal ulcerative colitis.

NCT ID: NCT01534000 Completed - Clinical trials for Ischemic Heart Disease

Cardiac-CT in the Treatment of Acute Chest Pain

CATCH
Start date: January 2010
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Objectives The CATCH trial (CArdiac cT in the treatment of acute CHest pain) is a prospective randomized controlled trial designed to evaluate the clinical value of cardiac multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) as a first-line diagnostic strategy in patients with acute chest pain, compared to a conventional functional-based testing strategy. Methods: Consecutive patients admitted with acute chest pain of suspected cardiac origin, but normal electrocardiogram and biomarkers were randomized to evaluation with 320-MDCT coronary angiography (CT-guided group) or with standard bicycle exercise test and/or myocardial perfusion imaging - MPI (Control group). After one year, patients will be followed-up, with registration of clinical endpoints such as Cardiac death, myocardial infarction, need for revascularisation, admittance for heart related problems, sustained chest pain, live quality score, use of medication.

NCT ID: NCT01533038 Completed - Clinical trials for Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia

BPH-6: Comparison of the UroLift System to TURP for Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia

BPH-6
Start date: February 2012
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to compare the UroLift System Treatment to Transurethral Resection of the Prostate (TURP) in improving a patient's overall quality of life, while evaluating healthcare expenditures associated with each therapy.

NCT ID: NCT01531946 Completed - Clinical trials for Ischemic Attack, Transient

Acute MRI in Transient Ischemic Attack

Start date: January 2012
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The purpose of this study is to detect acute ischemic lesions in patients admitted with symptoms of transient ischemic attack (TIA). Diffusion weighted Imaging (DWI) is today one of the best ways to detect ischemic lesions after TIA. The problem is that this only gives the diagnosis in 30% of the cases. It is possible that the addition of Arterial spin labeling (ASL) perfusion imaging and diffusion tensor imaging will make it possible to give a more accurate diagnosis.

NCT ID: NCT01531218 Completed - Diarrhea Clinical Trials

Trial Of Azithromycin In Campylobacter Concisus Patients With Diarrhea

Concisus2012
Start date: March 2012
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial of azithromycin in Campylobacter concisus culture positive patients with diarrhea. The clinical characteristics of emerging Campylobacter concisus in adults is vomiting and persistent diarrhea. Whether patients may benefit from antibiotic treatment is unknown. The purpose of this trial is to investigate whether antibiotic treatment with azithromycin of Campylobacter concisus induced diarrhea can better the symptoms and shorten the duration of illness.

NCT ID: NCT01530360 Completed - Premature Infants Clinical Trials

Cerebral Oxygenation to Guide Medical Interventions in Extremely Preterm Infants

SafeBoosC-p
Start date: September 2011
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

Regional tissue oxygenation (rStO2) can be monitored by near-infrared spectroscopy. The investigators planned a SafeBoosC phase II trial to test if a reduction of the burden of hyper- and hypoxia can be accomplished during the first three days of life in infants born before 28 completed weeks of gestation. The investigators developed a treatment guideline and a randomised trial design to evaluate if cerebral rStO2 spent out of range in %hours can be reduced by 50%. The present trial is a non-randomised pilot study of the intervention in 10 infants.

NCT ID: NCT01530152 Completed - Intubation Clinical Trials

Method Evaluation Study of Truview Picture Capture Device(PCD) Versus MacIntosh Laryngoscope

Start date: January 2012
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Aim: The aim of the method evaluation study is a comparing study of Truview PCD™ (Picture Capture Device) laryngoscope vs. Macintosh laryngoscope. The result of this study will form a basis for a possible recommendation of the Truview PCD™ laryngoscope in our organisation. The laryngoscopes are compared according to their ability to visualize the glottis area measured by the Cormack Lehane (CL) grade and the time used to get the best CL grade. A registration of any damage of tissue/teeths caused by the laryngoscopes, and a possible decrease of the saturation will also be made. Hypothesis: The Truview PCD™ laryngoscope provides a better view of the vocal cords and thereby makes the intubation les difficult. CL 1 is achieved in 90 percent of intubations with the Macintosh laryngoscope, and the hypothesis of the study is that CL 1 can be increased to 98 percent by use of the Truview PCD™ laryngoscope.
