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 compare compact intermittent catheters with standard coated intermittent catheters with regard to quality of life, using the Intermittent Self-Catheterisation Quality of life Measure.
Glucose metabolism is impaired in many critically ill patients and is often aggravated by parenteral feeding, infections and/or pre-existent diabetes.Therefore insulin infusion protocols, which are based on frequent bedside glucose monitoring, have been implemented on most critical care units. Despite extensive efforts of the intensive care unit staff difficulties were experienced in achieving efficient and safe glucose control. Several barriers to the implementation of glycemic control have been identified. Most importantly, there is concern about increased frequency of severe hypoglycemic episodes. To overcome these problems Space GlucoseControl was developed as a decision support system which helps to achieve safe and reliable blood glucose control in the desired ranges (4.4 - 6.1 mmol/l or 4.4 - 8.3 mmol/l). The objective of this non-interventional study is to gain additional information on the performance of the Space GlucoseControl system for glycaemic control in ICU patients when used in routine clinical practice.
This randomised, open-label phase III trial will be performed in patients with advanced squamous cell carcinoma of the lung requiring second-line treatment after receiving first-line platinum-based chemotherapy. The primary objective of this trial is to compare the efficacy of BIBW 2992 to erlotinib as second-line treatment in this group of patients.
The projects aim is to investigate the intestinal function of patients suffering from Prader-Willi Syndrome. The methods used are ultrasonographic measurement of the rectal diameter and gastrointestinal transit time
Atrial fibrillation is the most common arrhythmia and affect 1-2 % of the population in the western world. Atrial fibrillation can be treated with a relatively new procedure, called radiofrequency ablation. The aim of this study is to explore if patients treated with ablation for atrial fibrillation, benefit from an integrated rehabilitation programme, that consist of physical training and psycho-educative consultations with a specialised nurse. The hypothesis is, that integrated rehabilitation can improve mental health, physical capacity and other factors.
The study is a prospective cohort study following breast cancer patients from before surgery to one year after. The aims of the study are to determine risk factors that predispose to the development of persistent pain.
The purpose of this study is to investigate whether if KatGuide (a new developed medical device) improves the placing of a large bore chest tube in the pleural cavity compared to the conventional method.
Cardiac rehabilitation is an individual adapted multidisciplinary intervention for people suffering from Heart Disease. It involves; - Dietary counseling, - Exercise training, - Psychosocial support, - Physician - smoking cessation - Patient education The purpose is quick and complete recovery and to reduce the chance of recurrence. In Denmark people admitted with Acute Cardiac Disease is referred to a course of hospital based cardiac rehabilitation at discharge. The Danish Municipal Reform of 2007 changed the responsibility of rehabilitation from the Regions, who runs the hospitals, to the municipalities. Shared care is in this setting that elements of treatment are completed different places in Health Care. The aim of this study is: - to establish a shared care model for Cardiac rehabilitation following admission with Acute Coronary Syndrome and - to compare this model to the existing hospital based cardiac rehabilitation after admission with Acute Coronary Syndrome. Primary outcome is participation in cardiac rehabilitation.
The purpose of the investigators study was to determine the effect of dietary protein restriction on survival and progression to end stage renal disease (ESRD) in diabetic nephropathy.
This trial is conducted in Europe. The aim of this trial is to compare two different active treatment regimens of biphasic insulin aspart in subjects with type 2 diabetes.
