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 primary aim is to investigate if protein-enriched ice cream has the feasibility to increase intake of protein without substituting other foods in hospitalized older patients and secondary, if the protein-enriched ice cream has the feasibility to increases the energy intake and evokes positive emotions in older hospitalized patients
The aim of the project is to clarify whether DLBCL exhibits mutational diversity among different lymph node tumors in one and the same patient. It is desired to find out whether a possible difference between lymph node tumors / tumors can explain why patients who initially (at diagnosis) have the same prognosis, sometimes have a completely different course, eg with rapid recurrence of the disease after treatment. A possible difference could also perhaps shed light on why disease in specific places spreads more frequently to the brain - and therefore have an impact on when one chooses to give preventive treatment against spread to the brain. Monitoring of circulating cell-free DNA (ctDNA) is a new, potential, non-invasive tool for measuring the full spectrum of genetic variations / mutations and is to be investigated in our study as a possible non-invasive assessment of diversity / heterogeneity.
Robotic-assisted hysterectomy is an alternative to laparoscopic surgery as part of a minimal invasive regimen. Several treatment strategies are followed to improve the overall outcome and minimize surgical stress. Glucocorticoids provide significant analgesic and antiemetic effects but its role in a fast-track, multi-modal setting is not settled when discharge is planned within 24-36 hours. This study will evaluate in a randomized trial the effect of a single dose of 24 mg dexamethasone on women undergoing robotic-assisted hysterectomy with regard to surgical stress measured by c-reactive protein as primary outcome and, further, other stress markers like white blood cells. The postoperative recovery will be registered in validated charts and questionnaires for pain and analgesic use, quality of recovery, incontinence, sexual and work life. Furthermore, in a sub-analysis, transcriptional profiling will be applied to explore, which parts of the innate and cellular immune system is activated to explore the mechanisms of surgical stress response. The hypothesis is that women undergoing robotic hysterectomy would benefit from peroperative glucocorticoid treatment on important life qualities like pain, fatigue, freedom of medications and resuming work and sexual activities. Further, future adjuvant peroperative regimens may be able to target the stress response in a more appropriate way
The study is a prospective, multi-center, single arm study The study is part of the Post Market Clinical Follow (PMCF) activity. The investigational device used in this study is the Ponto 4 already fitted to the subjects prior to the study. The device is CE marked and available on the market since June 2019. Treatment is not provided in the study therefore risks are limited to the audiological measurements. The audiological measurements in the study are standard non-invasive measurements already familiar to the clinics. The hearing with Ponto 4 will be evaluated via speech and hearing tests, and patient reported outcomes.
A non-pharmacological study, which examines the effect of lifestyle intervention on sperm quality among men in fertility treatment. The primary endpoint is to increase the total amount of motile sperm in male patients undergoing fertility treatment
National cohort study of effectiveness and safety of SARS-CoV-2 vaccines (ENFORCE is an equivalence trial to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of multiple new SARS-CoV-2 vaccines approved for use in the EU, and which are being offered at participating units. The design is an open-labelled, non-randomised, parallel group, phase IV study with historical controls. A sub-study will be embedded within this master protocol addressing basic and translational research questions requiring additional sampling of biological material (under separate participant informed consent).
A project of the feasibility of using NightOwl to detect the prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). The long-term aim is to use the device to screen for OSA in a randomized clinical trial in AF patients undergoing ablation and/or a randomized trial of AF patients undergoing cardioversion.
The aim is to study the effect of a systematic approach to symptom identification and management with disease specific and clinically developed PRO (HM-PRO) with a 12 month follow up in outpatient care in patients with chronic hematological malignancy.
The study will be conducted as a randomized controlled trial with four parallel arms including four dairy products. We will investigate the health effects of including yogurt in the diet through a 16-weeks intervention period among 100 volunteering males with symptoms of the metabolic syndrome. The study has a total duration of 20 weeks as a wash out period of four weeks will be initiated prior to the intervention.
Within all the surgical specialties, major surgeries are performed whenever possible, as minimally invasive procedures to reduce blood loss, reduce pain and discomfort after surgery, avoid major scars, provide a faster recovery and thus shorter hospital stay. Such minimally invasive procedures in urinary tract surgeries are often performed as laparoscopic or robotic surgeries where CO2 (carbon dioxide) is insufflated into the abdominal cavity to create a working space for the surgeon's instruments. That high pressure created in the abdominal cavity (pneumoperitoneum) to create a workspace for the surgeon start a series of physiological changes in the heart, lung and kidney. Today, most laparoscopic, and robotic operations are performed with pneumoperitoneum of approximately 12-15 mm Hg, despite the fact that international guidelines recommend the use of the lowest intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) possible allowing adequate exposure of the operative field rather than using a routine pressure level. Investigator will conduct a randomized double-blind study involving 120 patients (2 groups of 60). The first group will be operated with standard pressure in the abdominal cavity 12-15 mm Hg (high IAP), patients in the second group will be operated on with a reduced pressure of ≈ 7 mmHg (low IAP). Investigator would like to assess the practical feasibility of operating under low IAP. Quality of recovery of patients in relation to both physical and mental status, and post-operative use of pain killer will be also investigated using a validated questionnaire . Finally, Invistigator will examine the impact of IAP on post-operative renal function, and risk of kidney injury. Hypothesis is carrying out laparoscopic/robotic surgeries under low IAP can optimize the post-operative quality of recovery, decrease pain and use of pain killer, improve post-operative renal function, and decrease risk for kidney injury. On the other hand low IAP can risk overview for surgeon, make workspace smaller and raise risk of bleeding.
