NCT ID: NCT05443776 Completed - Bone Regeneration Clinical Trials

In Vivo Investigation of 6 Membranes Including Their Physical, Chemical and Biological Properties.

Start date: September 15, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

A wide range of resorbable and non-resorbable membranes have been investigated over the last decades. Barrier membranes protect bone defects from ingrowth of soft tissue cells, provide mechanical stability of the defect area and allow bone progenitor cells to develop within a blood clot that is formed beneath the barrier membrane, taking a minimum of four to six weeks for periodontal tissues and 16-24 weeks for bone1,2.These membranes are utilized to reconstruct bone defects prior to implantation and to cover dehiscences and fenestrations around dental implants. When aiming to regenerate bone, resorbable or a non - resorbable membranes should be selected depending on location, size and defect area. However, until now the ideal membrane has not been described due to different opinions between authors3,4. Nevertheless, an ideal membrane should maintain its barrier function enough time for new bone formation, and if possible should be resorbable, so that a second surgical procedure for the explantation of the membrane would not be required, thus reducing the morbidity5. However, the use of a barrier membrane is a technique-sensitive procedure that is not free of complications. The main cause of Guided Bone Regeneration (GBR) failure is related to early or late exposure of the membrane, leading to contamination and infection of the biomaterial, irreversibly compromising bone regeneration4,6,7. Consequently, the inflammatory reaction of the surrounding soft tissues may require early removal of the membrane. Other complications, such as the onset of an abscess with purulent exudate, can also lead to a complete failure of GBR even without exposure of the membrane. It is thought necessary to perform this clinical study due to the lack of information present in the literature about the different types of membranes that exist nowadays, how they act in the human body with or without performing some type of regeneration and how our body acts towards them.

NCT ID: NCT05440253 Completed - Low Back Pain Clinical Trials

Effectiveness of Manual Therapy in Non-specific Low Back Pain

Start date: April 1, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Low back pain affects many people and involves high medical costs. For this reason, we wish to test the efficacy of dry needling VS ischaemic compression in patients with non-specific low back pain. To this end, an investigation was carried out on 40 patients diagnosed with this ailment, divided into two groups by randomisation to assess the intensity of pain, range of movement, pain threshold to pressure and quality of life, measuring these variables prior to the intervention, immediately, at 48 hours and one week after the intervention.

Start date: October 1, 2022
Phase:
Study type: Observational

identification of the reduction of exacerbations resulting in hospital admission in COPD patients after the use of the Breath Detect telemedicine platform.

NCT ID: NCT05440019 Completed - Infertility, Female Clinical Trials

Evaluation of the Safety and Usability of the M3T Fertigo System and Its Calibration

FERTIGO®
Start date: September 14, 2022
Phase:
Study type: Observational

We have developed a new minimally invasive system for endometrial dating, that allows the physician to monitor, capture, project and analyze the actual morphology and maturity of the endometrial surface, at any given time. A time series of such indications provides an assessment regarding the pace of development by which the endometrium is maturing during a relevant cycle. FERTIGO®'s method for endometrial dating has been validated in swine and ex-vivo human samples, where image analysis of tissues has been compared with traditional endometrial dating techniques. The comparison yielded calibration means and correlation between FERTIGO®'s dating and the traditional dating methods. Thus, M3T FERTIGO®'s system is designed to enable the determination of the actual physiological cycle date, in good correlation with the indirect (endometrial thickness and hormones level) and delayed known methods (histopathology). To this end, a high quality, low magnification (X2-X4) image of the endometrium surface should be acquired, stored and analyzed. This trial will evaluate, on the one hand, the safety and usability of the FERTIGO® device and, on the other hand, calibrate it by evaluating image quality. Both safety and usability will be measured through questionnaires answered by the participants (adverse events and satisfaction) and by the physicians (satisfaction), respectively, considering the introduction of the device, its use, and its removal.

NCT ID: NCT05439668 Completed - Postpartum Period Clinical Trials

Comparison of Two Abdominal Exercise Programs on the Interrect Distance

Start date: July 1, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The objective of the research is to compare two programs of exercises in postpartum woman, one based in abdominal strengthening exercises and the other based in abdominal hypopresive exercise.

NCT ID: NCT05439395 Completed - Clinical trials for Coronary Artery Disease

Study on the Clinical Performance of Steelex® Sternum Set for Sternal Closure

STERCCAS
Start date: May 18, 2022
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The study is designed as a retrospective, international, multi-center cohort study to evaluate Steelex® Sternum Set for sternum closure. The data from 2 clinics located in Germany and Spain participating in the "OPTICABG" as well as in the "PREMIVALVE" study will be used for assessment. Only patients receiving a complete or a partial sternotomy closed with Steelex® Sternum Set will be included in the analysis. "OPTICABG" patients were followed up 3 months after surgery and "PREMIVALVE" patients until 6 months after surgery. Adverse Events (AE) / Serious Adverse Events (SAE)(e.g. surgical site infection, sternum stability, stroke, myocardial infraction, death etc.) reported in both studies will be used for the STERCCAS analysis.

NCT ID: NCT05438602 Completed - COVID-19 Clinical Trials

A Study to Learn About the Study Medicines (Nirmatrelvir Plus Ritonavir) in People Aged 12 Years or Older With COVID-19 and a Compromised Immune System

Start date: August 3, 2022
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this clinical trial is to learn about the safety and effects of the study medicine (called Nirmatrelvir/Ritonavir) for the possible treatment of COVID-19. Patients with COVID-19 who have more difficulty in fighting against infections have a higher chance of severe illness. Such patients may benefit from longer treatment durations compared to the standard treatment regimen. The study is seeking participants who: - Have a confirmed COVID-19 infection - Are Immunocompromised - Experience onset of signs/symptoms attributable to the current COVID-19 infection within 5 days prior to screening and ≥1 signs/symptoms attributable to COVID-19 present on the day of randomization. In addition, this study will also evaluate the efficacy and safety of a second treatment course of nirmatrelvir/ritonavir in people who experience that their COVID-19 is flaring up within 14 days of having taken a 5-day treatment course of nirmatrelvir/ritonavir. For this group, the study is seeking participants who: - Have a confirmed COVID-19 infection - Experience a worsening of signs/symptoms after completing an initial 5-day course of nirmatrelvir/ritonavir - The worsening of COVID-19 symptoms must occur within 14 days after completion of the initial 5-day course of nirmatrelvir/ritonavir - Are Immunocompromised - Experience onset of signs/symptoms attributable to the current COVID-19 infection within 48 hours prior to screening and ≥1 signs/symptoms attributable to COVID-19 present on the day of randomization. All participants will be taking the study medicine for either 5, 10, or 15 days. The study medication will be taken by mouth 2 times a day. Participants will take part in this study for about 24 weeks. The first dose of study medication is taken at the study site and the rest at home. Selected participants will need to visit the study site at least 10 times during the study.
