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 main purpose is to prevent syncope in patients with recurrent syncopal episodes caused by malignant vasovagal faints and bradycardia. Patients are treated by a special pacemaker (closed loop stimulation [CLS]) which can potentially identify an incipient attack and prevent syncope by pacing.
This is a 3 year longitudinal study to identify novel endpoints and compare these with standard measures such as forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) for their ability to measure and predict COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease) severity and its progression over time. Control subjects (smokers and never smokers) will be recruited as comparators with the COPD subjects.
This is a study of crush- or culotte stenting of bifurcation lesions using drug eluting stents. This is a randomized Nordic multicenter study including 400 patients with angina pectoris with clinical angiographic follow-up.
To evaluate the efficacy of pregabalin compared to placebo in the treatment of posttraumatic peripheral neuropathic pain
Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome is complicated by considerable cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, at least partly due to hypertension. Nocturnal hypoxia, hypercapnia and acidosis stimulate chemoreceptors and presumably increased secretion of vasoactive hormones which might be responsible for hypertension in these patients. The aim of this study is to measure the secretion of vasoactive hormones at night and to analyse the relationship between vasoactive hormones, oxygen saturation and the blood pressure at night.
Study of SB-681323 (a novel p38 MAPkinase inhibitor) in subjects with documented coronary heart disease (CHD) undergoing elective percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
The primary objective of this study is to determine the accuracy of the Reflux Disease Questionnaire (RDQ) as a diagnostic test for gastroesophageal reflux disease. Symptom evaluation by the RDQ will be compared with other established approaches to the diagnosis of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) in a primary care patient population with symptoms thought to be of upper gastrointestinal (GI) tract origin.
The purpose of this trial is to determine the comparative safety and efficacy of dabigatran etexilate 150 mg bid administered orally and warfarin as needed (pro re nata - prn) to maintain an International Normalised Ratio (INR) of 2.0-3.0 for 6 month treatment of acute symptomatic venous thromboembolism (VTE), following initial treatment (5-10 days) with a parenteral anticoagulant approved for this indication. This trial aims to demonstrate non-inferiority of dabigatran compared with warfarin in patients with acute symptomatic VTE. After achieving non-inferiority, this trial also aims to establish superiority (by means of hierarchical tests) of dabigatran over warfarin.
The objectives of this registry are to assess the use of the thrombin-specific anticoagulant bivalirudin during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in a real life setting. In particular, data will be collected to analyze experiences of bivalirudin use in respect to the following objectives; - examine the aspects of safety and effectiveness of bivalirudin - gain experience regarding the characteristics of patients in bivalirudin treatment - evaluate the handling of bivalirudin and its practicality
The overall objective is to compare efficacy and safety of TachoComb H versus standard surgical treatment for the control of local bleeding in patients undergoing prostatectomy. Specific objectives include the comparison between test treatments for intraoperative haemostatic efficacy as well as for post-operative blood loss to be assessed by haemoglobin and haematocrit concentration of drainage fluid.
