There are about 11256 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Egypt. 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.
Investigators in this study describe a new perspective for female patients that will undergo skin-sparing mastectomy in which there will be an immediate reconstruction of the mastectomized breast for more satisfactory aesthetic results.
The current study aimed to investigate the effect of inspiratory muscle training (IMT) on pulmonary functions (FEV1and FVC), and respiratory muscle strength in patients with inhalation injury, which may prove to be a promising intervention helping to improve exercise tolerance, relieve dyspnea and suggests an improvement in respiratory muscle function.
nowadays, published literature affirms strong relation between tinnitus, obesity, and high lipids of blood.
The aim is to compare the efficacy and tolerability of an immune modulating enteral nutrition formula versus the regular formula on the outcomes of critically ill septic patients by assessment of clinical outcomes, immune profile, tolerability and enteral nutrition intolerance and laboratory markers
Postoperative pain after laparoscopy may be localized pain resulting from incision due to many (two or three) punctures (somatic pain) or due to manipulation of the intra-abdominal organs as ovaries, uterus, omentum, and intestine (visceral pain) or shoulder and back pain caused by retained CO2 in the peritoneal cavity with its irritation effect on the diaphragm.Patients will be divided into two groups: Intraperitoneal (IP) group (20 patients):They will receive 100 ml normal saline infused over 10 min immediately before the induction of anesthesia and then continuous infusion of 500 ml normal saline intraoperatively then intraperitoneal wash of 100 ml normal saline containing 30 mg/kg MgSO4 at the end of laparoscopy. Intravenous (IV) group (20 patients):They will receive 100 ml normal saline containing MgSO4 30 mg/kg infused over 10 min immediately before the induction of anesthesia and then continuous infusion of 500 ml normal saline containing MgSO4 (8mg/kg) intraoperatively then intraperitoneal wash using 100 ml normal saline at the end of laparoscopy
Cesarean section is one of the painful operations that require adequate postoperative analgesia. Patients are divided into two groups: Multimodal (DMM) group ( 30 patients): patients will receive spinal anesthesia with 10-12.5 mg bupivacaine and 1 ml containing 2 mg dexamethasone, 50 µg morphine, and 500 µg midazolam. Morphine (M) group (30 patients): patients will receive spinal anesthesia with 10-12.5 mg bupivacaine and 1 ml containing 200 µg morphine
The study will evaluate the eradication rate and tolerability of modified LOAD regimens (three antibiotics and a proton pump inhibitor (lansoprazole)) for management of HP infection in treatment-naive patients as well as patients who failed previous therapies.
Cytokines, such as IL-6 and IL-8 can be used as markers of acute infections, including acute gastroenteritis. However, there have been no previous studies on the levels of IL-6 and IL-8 in malnourished children with acute diarrhea. This study aims to evaluate serum levels of interleukins 6 and 8 in malnourished children with acute diarrhea.
Changes in demographics and physical activities of the young population have increased the number of patients with medial unicompartmental knee osteoarthritis (OA) requiring surgical intervention. High tibial osteotomy (HTO) have shown good clinical results in restoring lower extremity alignment, reducing pain, and improving knee function in patients with moderate-to-severe knee osteoarthritis and genu varum deformity. The aim of this study is to evaluate the relation between correction of the malalignment of the knee and ankle pain and orientation in patient of medial compartment knee osteoarthritis using high tibial osteotomy by recent reports concerning the indications, functional outcomes and complication.
Objectives: To compare the effectiveness of erector spinae plane block (ESPB) and rectus sheath block (RSB) in providing postoperative analgesia after supraumbilical surgery in adult patients and their impact on the patient's outcomes. Background: Supraumbilical surgery for hernia repair is the second-most-popular after surgical inguinal hernia repair and is accompanied by moderate to severe postoperative pain, so patients always require large doses of opioids within the first postoperative day. Because opioids have several adverse effects such as drowsiness, pruritus, nausea, and vomiting, regional analgesic techniques are an essential component of postoperative opioid-sparing analgesia. Previous studies have shown that regional analgesic techniques after abdominal wall surgeries can be an essential element of a postoperative pain management strategy with minimal adverse effects and hemodynamic responses. ESPB provides both somatic and visceral analgesia to the abdominal wall, through the blockade of the anterior rami of spinal nerves and the rami communicants involving sympathetic nerve fibers. RSB provides analgesia to the anterior abdominal wall from the xiphoid process to the symphysis pubis, through the blockade of the anterior rami of the 7th to 12th intercostal nerves. The dermatomal distribution of ESPB and RSB makes them ideal regional analgesic techniques after abdominal surgery, and to our knowledge, there were no previous trials that studied the difference between them. Patients and Methods: This was a prospective, randomized (1:1), double-blind clinical trial; carried out on 60 patients scheduled for elective supraumbilical surgery under general anesthesia at our hospital. Patients will be randomly allocated into two equal groups (30 patients each) and will receive: in group E; general anesthesia with postoperative bilateral ultrasound-guided ESPB, whereas in group R; general anesthesia with postoperative bilateral ultrasound-guided RSB.
