There are about 21071 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Spain. 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.
This study is designed to collect information about the characteristics of endometrial fluid at day 2 and day 4 post-ovulation in normal fertile women.
So far there are studies that report the benefits of physiotherapy treatment in carpal tunnel syndrome, but none on the treatment of dry needling. Recently, an ultrasound validation study has been published in which the results indicate that the application of dry needling with "fascial winding technique" in the carpal tunnel, following the "four-pole carpal dry needling" model, is valid for reaching and traction of the transverse carpal ligament. Stretching over this ligament could lead to new therapeutic possibilities for dry needling at this level. The objective of this project is to demonstrate the clinical efficacy of this technique in patients affected by carpal tunnel syndrome, determining the proportion of patients who can be avoided surgery, and quantifying the improvement in the clinic related to pain, strength and functionality of the hand and the median nerve. The study is a randomized clinical trial on a sample of 86 patients diagnosed with carpal tunnel syndrome, who have been prescribed surgery at this level. The degree of involvement of the median nerve will be mild or moderate, according to electromyographic results. The dry needling with fascial winding technique will be applied to the intervention group following the model of "four-pole carpal dry needling" during a period of 6 weeks, at the rate of one weekly session. The control group will remain within the normal course of their waiting list status for STC surgery, without receiving any extraordinary treatment to what is normally practiced in this situation. The main variables contemplated are: need for surgery at the end of the study, level of involvement of the median nerve (according to electromyographic result), transverse area of the median nerve at the entrance of the carpal tunnel and relationship between the area of the median nerve at the wrist and the forearm (both recorded by ultrasound study), pain intensity (using visual analog scale), symptom intensity, functional capacity and quality of life (according to the Boston Carpal Tunnel Questionnaire), and degree of muscular strength to the grip manual and digital.
This clinical study is a prospective, multicenter, post-market, single-arm, observational study designed to characterize the usage of the Lesion Index (LSI) with the market-released TactiCath Contact Force Ablation Catheter, Sensor Enabled (TactiCath SE) in subjects with Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation (PAF) in a real-word environment.
The investigators aim to determine if dry needling technique in a non myofascial trigger point area generate the same changes in spasticity, function and pain responses as with dry needling in a myofascial trigger point area.
Aim: To check the applicability of LitEmotion© in people with Fibromyalgia. Design: randomized clinical trial, with pre, post and follow-up evaluation. Researchers and outcome evaluator blinded. Method: The experimental group will play during three weeks to LitEmotion© videogame. The control group will not play.
The purpose of this study is to analyze the impact of the intravenous (IV) or paravertebral (PV) lidocaine administration during the intraoperative period of lung resection surgery on the appearance of postoperative complications. We design a randomized, controlled and blinded study to be performed in 153 patients with 3 arms: 1) Lidocaine IV + PV saline 2) saline IV + PV lidocaine, 3) remifentanil IV + PV saline. Perioperative analysis of inflammatory biomarkers in bronchoalveolar lavage and serum. Follow-up of the postoperative course, especially the appearance of postoperative complications according to the revised Clavien-Dindo classification for thoracic surgery, as well as other relevant clinical results.
This study evaluates the influence of motor imagery or action observation training on pain perception in patients with chronic neck pain. Perception of pain will be measured by the pain pressure threshold. A group of patients will receive an action observation training of neck movements, another will receive a protocol of motor imagery of the same movements and the last group will be a placebo group, through the viewing of a documentary video.
Motor imagery is defined as a dynamic mental process of an action, without its real motor execution. Action observation evokes an internal, real-time motor simulation of the movements that the observer is perceiving visually. Both MI and AO have been shown to produce a neurophysiological activation of the brain areas related to the planning and execution of voluntary movement in a similar manner how the real action.
Objectives: To evaluate the clinical efficacy of using a manual inhibition technique for the suboccipital muscles compared with the use of the so-called INYBI tool in individuals with chronic non-specific neck pain, and the compare the results of using both approaches on pain relief, cervical range of motion neck and vertical maximum mouth opening. Design: Quantitative, experimental, longitudinal, prospective, and double blinded study. Subjects: Patients between 18 and 40 years, with chronic non-specific neck pain of at least 3 months of evolution. Methods: The experimental group will undergo a 5 minutes intervention for the suboccipital muscles using the INYBI tool. The control group will receive a 5 minutes of treatment involving the suboccipital muscles manual inhibition technique.
This study will assess the efficacy of vibegron compared with placebo in men with overactive bladder (OAB) symptoms on pharmacological therapy for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) as defined by micturition and urgency episodes.
