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.
The present study aims to compare the differential effects of a mindfulness-based intervention (MBI) and physical exercise (PE) on different stress and health variables by self-reports. A randomized controlled trial of three groups is proposed, with pretest, posttest and four follow-ups at 1, 2, 3 and 6 months that would be developed among the employees of two large multinationals.
The International Association for the Study of Pain defines phantom limb pain (PLP) as that pain referred to a part of the body that has been previously removed as if it were still present. It affects between 55-80% of the population who has suffered an amputation, but not in the same frequency and intensity. Graded motor imagery (GMI) is a progressive, physiotherapeutic treatment modality developed to train and reorganize the brain based on three consecutive techniques: laterality recognition, motor imagery, and mirror therapy. The scientific evidence on the implementation of GMI in PLP is scarce, noting that there is no standardized way to use it in this patient profile. Therefore, the need is generated to develop and validate a GMI protocol to address the PLP and test its effectiveness. The study hypothesis is that graded motor imagery is a conservative treatment method based on motor learning, neuroplasticity, and mirror neuron stimulation that may have positive effects in decreasing phantom limb pain in the amputated patient, and as a consequence, decrease the associated psychological factors and improve the quality of life and functionality of the person. A randomized clinical trial will be performed with simple blinding, following the CONSORT guide for this type of study. It will be carried out at the community level with supervision and follow-up by the principal investigator.

The association of conscious sedation vs. general anesthesia in ischemic stroke with posterior circulation occlusions undergoing endovascular therapy, is istill unknown. No prospective or clinical trials have studied this effect on posterior circulation strokes. The choice of anesthetic regimen is ussually depending on local stroke-team protocols or neurointerventional preference. MORPHEUS Stroke Registry is a prospective multicentre observational study that investigates the association between anestheisa and functional outcome in patients with posterior circulation large vessel occlusion treated endovascularly.
This study is designed to assess the safety and efficacy of Rosmalip® nutritional supplement compared to placebo in subjects with solid cancer for the prevention of infections including COVID-19.
The purpose of this study is to ascertain whether 4 weeks of daily virtual-reality-based rehabilitation at home improves disability in the early stages of recovery from anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction surgery compared with standard care.
The aim of the study is to investigate the effects of the dry needling technique and diacutaneous fibrolysis technique in teres major muscles on pain, range of motion, strength extensibility and muscular properties of the soft tissues of the shoulder in athletes with shoulder pain.
Introduction: Nonspecific low back pain is the most common cause of visits to medical personnel and is the largest cause of absenteeism in the world. (1), Nonspecific low back pain accounts for 85% of low back pain, notably affecting quality of life and working life (2), There is a 50-70% probability that a person will have low back pain during their life ( 3), lumbago produces 300,000 years lived with disability (ADL), being the first burden of disease in Chile, surpassing hypertensive heart disease and depression (4). There are many therapeutic approaches to the management of nonspecific low back pain, including high-speed, low-amplitude spinal manipulations (5). This technique consists of applying a short and rapid force at the level of the joint that is restricted, in order to restore normal joint mobility. The physiological effects of manipulations are not sufficiently studied, but some authors (6) (7) suggest that the nervous system is the mediator of the effects of spinal manipulation. Among non-pharmacological interventions, numerous clinical guidelines recommend the use of therapeutic exercise for low back pain (8), including a wide variety of types of recommended exercises, the most traditionally recommended being aerobic exercises, exercises that involve stretching postures of the back. vertebral musculature, strengthening and strength exercises (9) and central stabilization exercises (10). Recently, the effects of inspiratory muscle and diaphragm training exercises in patients with low back pain are being investigated (11). The application of an elastic bandage (12) in the lumbar area generates a proprioceptive signal through the skin, producing analgesia and a feeling of support in the area. Objectives: To compare the effects of different therapeutic approaches in combination with spinal manipulation. Design and method: Single-blind randomized clinical trial Results: Significant differences are expected before and after treatment and differences between groups. Conclusion: The aims of this study is to demonstrate that High speed and low amplitude spinal manipulation plus other conservative treatment is a valid therapeutic strategy for the management of nonspecific low back pain
Hip fracture is one of the most common traumas associated with falls in the elderly, severely affecting the patient's mobility and independence. The treatment involves hospitalization and prolonged rehabilitation periods with high costs which are associated with an increased mortality rate due to health complications. In recent years, the use of robotic applications has proven to be effective in gait rehabilitation, especially for neurological disorders. However, there is a lack of research in robotic rehabilitation focused on the hip fracture of elderly people. This study presents the validation of a novel robotic platform for hip rehabilitation called SWalker aimed at improving the rehabilitation of this condition in comparison with conventional rehabilitation.
A significant number of professionals subjected to high-risk situations have been infected by Covid-19, due to the lack of adequate respiratory protection equipment or poor marginal sealing adjustments. Then, the objective of this study is to determine if there are statistically significant differences in the level of respiratory protection of type IIR surgical face masks and filtering face masks, used with and without a peripheral sealing device, against the contagion of Covid-19 or other harmful biological agents. The proposed device is a thermoplastic resin ring composed of a reusable and biodegradable polylactic acid designed to be used in a healthcare environment. The individuals of the study will be submitted to qualitative fit tests, that meet current Ocupational Security and Health Administration (OSHA) standard. The mentioned qualitative fit test uses a sodium saccharin solution to evaluate the respiratory protection equipment in professionals in hospitals, emergency centers, and early childhood education centers.
