There are about 36633 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in France. 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 retrospective monocentric study compares 2 ventilatory support strategies on outcomes (length of stay, intubation, mortality) in patients admitted in Intensive Care Unit with Covid-19 related pneumonia : invasive strategy used during the first period and non-invasive strategies (Continuous Positive Airway Pressure, High Flow Nasal Canula, Prone Position) used during the second period.
Investigation of the association between PaCO2 change after extra corporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) initiation and neurological outcome and mortality in neonates treated by ECMO for respiratory failure.
One of the main challenges of ageing is to prevent the onset of mobility disability and its co-morbidities. Screening the risk of mobility disability in community-dwelling elders is therefore very important and at the uppermost for the care of sarcopenia and frailty. A multicomponent intervention, integrating multidisciplinary actions and combining physical exercise and nutrition, is recognized as an effective therapy for the care of mobility disability risk factors. The diagnosis of either pre-frail/frailty and/or sarcopenia at least probable is sufficient to trigger a sustained intervention as it can prevent the onset of mobility disability. Therefore, it is difficult to identify the best responder for this type of care path. As a result, studies have been interested in exploring the predictive factors related to the functional response to exercise within lifestyle interventions. It has been shown that SPPB provides useful information when associated with demographic or physical activity factors. Those predictions are reliable to an ageing population with a SPPB ≤9 but it is still unknown if these reports are reproducible to older adults with high baseline physical function. Therefore, we hypothesized that a more inclusive SPPB score at baseline could also be related to other factors to predict the functional response to exercise. We assumed that strength, age, sex or body mass index could be interesting to elicit better predictions. It is an important issue for the development of targeted-interventions and specific care orientations. The training has to be established through an accurate schedule to optimize the response to exercise. However, it is difficult to make consensus on the best method to apply, especially for elders with mobility disability risk. Hence, the present study also focus on a specific training method planned toward different exercises modes. We aimed to propose a training with cost-effective material and the absence of machines to transpose it into daily life participants. We expected to observe benefits on physical performance after this exercise intervention.
Recent studies have highlighted the consequences of COVID-19 pandemic and social distancing on mental health of individuals. The aim of this study is to evaluate those consequences within a sample of inflammatory chronic rheumatism affected patients, taking into account the well-known key role of stress in the set-up of such diseases.
Single-center, prospective pilot study on patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis fitted with noninvasive ventilation. The objective is to assess the satisfaction of remote monitoring of patients on non-invasive ventilation after 12 months.
This study evaluates the safety and effectiveness of an investigational study drug (called CTP-543) in adults (18 years and older) who have 50% or greater scalp hair loss.
Abionic SA has developed a novel point-of-care (POC) platform, the abioSCOPE, and an in vitro diagnostic kit for the quantification of the pancreatic stone protein (PSP) to be analyzed specifically with the abioSCOPE® device. This test is intended to be used to aid in the early recognition of sepsis. The test is extremely easy to use and has a total turnaround time of approximately 8 minutes. This test uses only 30 microliters of K2/K3-EDTA anticoagulated whole blood or plasma. Results are quantitative (ng/ml). The product is for Investigational Use Only in the US and bears CE-marking. It is commercially available in selected European and non-European countries. The test has also been clinically validated in a multicentric, prospective, observational study performed (AB-PSP-001, clinicaltrials.gov identifier NCT03474809). The main goals of this study are to evaluate certain analytical performances components of this product in a point-of-care environment, in particular the precision, sample type comparability and specimen stability of the product. Such data will support regulatory filing of a US FDA 510(k) premarket notification file and of a European IVD Regulation technical file to continue product commercialization in 2022, when this novel regulation will be effective.
While 80 % of all sudden cardiac death (SCD) result from coronary artery disease (CHD) approximatively 2/3 of SCD occur as a first manifestation of the CHD. VF (ventricular fibrillation) is the main cause of SCD in acute coronary syndrome (ACS), and the 2017 ESC Guidelines for the management of acute myocardial infarction, recommended direct admission to the catheterization laboratory in survivors of out of hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) with criteria for STEMI on the post-resuscitation electrocardiogram (ECG) (Class I, grade B). However, During the past few years, the number of immediate coronary angiography (CA) for suspected ACS in patients presenting an OHCA increased, with a survival rate at discharge in this subgroup of patients better, about 60 to 80% (1). However, the survival rate remains poor in the global population of OHCA and some survivors patients may have neurological sequelles, related to global anoxia consequences or altered quality of life related to cardiac function impairement . While the survival rate at hospital discharge is well known, the investigators have few data on long term outcomes , particularly regarding cardiac and neurological states. Therefore the main objective of this study is to evaluate prospectively, in an observational study, the one-year prognosis of patients with rescuscited OHCA in whom a CA for suspected ACS was performed in the university hospital of Montpellier. Only patients alive at discharged are considered for the follow-up to eliminate the in-hospital mortality . The investigators aim to assess year neurological status using medical questionnaires at one year follow-up(primary end point). The investigators hypothesize that 10% of patients will discharged alive from hospital with severe neurological sequelae at 1 year.Secondary end point will evaluate cardiac status, quality of life and pronostic factors of adverse outcome.
This study compares insulin icodec (a new insulin taken once a week) to insulin degludec (an insulin taken once daily which is already available on the market) in people with type 2 diabetes. The study will look at how well insulin icodec taken weekly controls blood sugar compared to insulin degludec taken daily. Participants will get their study medicine in an injection pen. Participants will get a pen for weekly injection and one for daily injection. One will be icodec or degludec and the other will be dummy medicine. The treatment participants get is decided by chance. Participants and the study staff will not know which active medicine they get. The insulin is injected with a needle in a skin fold in the thigh. The study could last for about 8 months. Participants will have 13 clinic visits and 17 phone calls with the study doctor. At 8 clinic visits participants will have blood samples taken. At 4 clinic visits participants cannot eat or drink (except for water) for 8 hours before the visit. Women cannot take part if pregnant, breast-feeding or plan to become pregnant during the study period.
.During one year all the resected basal cell carcinomas (BCC) analyzed in Montpellier University Hospital Anatomopathology unit were included in this study. Localisation and histological characteristics were collected. All the recurrences of BCC were searched from the medical records (or histopathology request form). From 804 BCC, 48 were recurrent BCC with or without complete first resection. Patients with recurrent BCC were contacted to obtain agreement and more informations about the first resection and some clinical informations like sun exposure and phototype. The statistical analysis focused on the localisation of recurrent BCC (with a complete first resection) compared to localisations of primary BCC in this population. The goal was to identified localisations with an increased risk of recurrences.
