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.
The VISABL-AFL clinical investigation is a prospective, single-arm, multi-center, interventional, Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) trial. The primary objectives of VISABL-AFL are to assess the safety and efficacy of radiofrequency (RF) ablation of type-I atrial flutter performed with the Vision-MR Ablation Catheter 2.0 in the iCMR environment.
In 2007 Nock & Banaji developed a so-called implicit suicide risk measurement using a computer tool: the Implicit Association Test (IAT). This measurement, associated with traditional evaluations, makes it possible to better predict suicidal recurrence. In 2020, the Poitiers team of Tello was able to replicate these results on a French population. However, although a high IAT score predicts the onset of suicide at 1 year, there is no data on how this score changes over time nor even data concerning the measure's ability to differentiate a population with explicit suicidal ideation from a population without explicit suicidal ideation. The investigators therefore seek to demonstrate an evolution of implicit suicidal ideation over time by replicating the measurement at inclusion, at 6 months and at 12 months, for different patient profiles: Suicidal ideation vs No suicidal ideation and suicide attempt vs no suicide attempt. Patients will be recruited from the emergency-unit of CHU Amiens-Picardie and will take the suicide-IAT as well as various questionnaires.
41.3% of patients hospitalized in intensive care express feeling anxiety when they are systematically questioned. Ventilatory weaning is one of the moments of anxiety for the patient. While being conscious he must tolerate invasive ventilation. The early mobilization of patients in intensive care must be started early, within 24-48 hours, after the patient wakes up. Early mobilization is part of the weaning process from invasive mechanical ventilation in intensive care. It is recommended to reduce it to use relaxation therapies. Several studies have assessed the impact of relational touch in conscious or unconscious patients in intensive care. The SRLF consensus conference in 2010 recommends the use of massage for anxiolytic purposes. This study aims to assess the impact of relational touch versus standard care on anxiety during the first bedside session, in intubated intensive care patients ventilated for at least 48 hours and presenting with RASS (Richmond agitation sedation scale). ) from 0 to -1. The study will aussi assess the impact of relational touch versus standard care on the following patient parameters: - Evaluation of caregiver anxiety with the Spielberger inventory before and after the session - Increasing the duration of the bedside session; - Variations in pain, assessed by the Behavioral Pain Scale (BPS) at the end of the session; - The level of agitation/vigilance at the beginning and at the end of the session with the Richmond agitation-sedation scale (RASS); - Induced variations in blood pressure; - Induced variations in oxygen saturation; - The variations induced on the respiratory rate; - The variations induced on the heart rate; - The need to prescribe psychotropic drugs on the day of the first bedside; - Reduction in the number of days of invasive mechanical ventilation between the first bedside session and discharge from intensive care unit (maximum D28 after the first bedside session). This is a national, multicenter, cluster, randomized, controlled trial with 4-stage stepped-wedge design (1:1:1:1 randomization), phase III, superiority, open-label, comparing systematic practice relational touch by the paramedical team during bedside sessions, versus standard care (without relational touch). The benefit is above all for the patient with a better experience of bedside sessions and a reduction in ventilation time, therefore bed rest, leading to a reduction in decubitus complications. The expected economic benefit involves the reduction of decubitus complications and therefore their cost and the reduction of hospitalization times in intensive care.
The primary objective of the study is to evaluate if the efficacy of an experimental strategy on antibiotic treatment duration based on stopping treatment when stability criteria are reached after at least 48 h of treatment, is non-inferior to the efficacy of standard antibiotic duration in CAP patients treated in the hospital setting. As the secondary objectives, the study aims - To study if the efficacy of our experimental strategy on antibiotic treatment duration compared to standard of care in CAP patients treated in the hospital setting is non-inferior in terms of: - Persistence of cure at Day 30 of antibiotic treatment - All-cause mortality rate on Day 30 of antibiotic treatment - Patients evolution of pneumonia symptoms and quality of life via 2 scores (CAP score, CAP Sym) at Day 0 of treatment (retrospectively), at stability (Day S), at Day 7 , at Day 15, and at Day 30 of antibiotic treatment. - To compare between the 2 study arms at Day 30 of antibiotic treatment: - The duration of antibiotic treatment; - The length of hospital stay; - The frequency and severity of adverse events during the 30 days after the start of treatment. - To explore the impact of reduced antibiotic treatment duration for CAP on the oropharyngeal resistome.
Multicenter prospective cross-sectional study of CD patients, its aim is the construction of an objective and reproducible system for evaluation of Transmural healing in Crohn's Disease (CD). Primary objective : Objective definition of depth or grade of transmural healing in relation to radiologic signs observed during Magnetic Resonance Enterography (MRE) in CD
The rationale of this study is to confirm and support the clinical safety and performance of any of these products in a real-world population of 209 patients who underwent an endovascular intervention within standard-of-care of the iliacofemoral artery and renal artery, using at least one of the investigational products from iVascular.
Recent work on large cohorts of chronic stroke (>6 months post-stroke) have shown that intensive training of the upper limb in the chronic stroke patients can lead to substantial motor and functional gains that are maintained at 6 months post intervention. A very prolonged (12 weeks) and very intensive (5 hours daily) training applied to chronic patients after stroke brings a substantial gain both motor and functional which is maintained at 3 months post intervention. Robotic rehabilitation have been shown to be as effective as any other treatment used in rehabilitation. But the methods of implementation remain widely debated. At that time, most robotic therapies have tried to reproduce functional movement mainly pointing objects. We want to demonstrate that analytic movements of the elbow and the shoulder performed with the Luna-EMG robot can replace part of usual physiotherapy treatment with at least the same effectiveness on the recovery of fluid movements of the upper limb after a stroke.
This study is being done to learn about urothelial cancers that make HER2 and how that affects treatment choices for participants with urothelial cancer. During this study, the medical and health records of participants will be reviewed to learn more about their health. Participants will have urothelial cancer that has grown in the body near where it started (locally advanced) and cannot be removed (unresectable) or has spread through the body (metastatic).
As of 2019, the CA-SFM (Comité de l'Antibiogramme de la Société Française de Microbiologie) recommends that the letter "I" or the term "intermediate" on antibiotic antibiograms. Instead, it is recommended that the term "sensible à forte posologie" or "SFP". These recommendations have been in place since 21/01/2022 at Nancy University Hospital. Pseudomonas aeruginosa is the bacterium most affected by this change, as it has a high proportion of "high dosage" antibiotics. Staphylococcus aureus is the most widely isolated bacterium, and also impacted by the change in antibiotic susceptibility testing. The aim of this change in recommendations is to guarantee the efficacy of the proposed molecules. Main objective Evaluate the impact of the change in antibiogram recommendations in samples positive for Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus on antibiotic therapy (prescribed dosage) Secondary objectives - Evaluate the impact of changing the way antibiograms in Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus on antibiotic therapy (molecule prescribed). - Evaluate the impact of changing the way antibiograms on antibiotic therapy (molecule and dosage prescribed), depending on the strain identified (Pseudomonas aeruginosa or Staphylococcus aureus). - Describe the impact of changing antibiograms in Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus on antibiotic therapy (molecule and dosage prescribed) by department.
Cutibacterium acnes is involved in nearly 40% of shoulder prosthetic joint infections (PJI). After shoulder prothesis, C. acnes mainly affects hip prosthesis. One recent work from the Lyon (France) bone and joint infections reference center with data focusing mainly on hip and knee PJI has reported that C. acnes is the leading cause of late-onset PJI after coagulase negative staphylococci (CNS) (late acute PJI not considered). In such late-onset device-related infection, biofilm, as produced by C. acnes during PJI represents a major hurdle on the path to patient's cure. Because biofilm-associated bacteria have a slower metabolism and a lower multiplication rate than planktonic bacteria, antibiotic susceptibility can be hampered. Rifampicin is an antibiotic with low minimal bactericidal concentration against S. aureus and CNS biofilm-associated bacteria8 which significantly influence patient's outcome during staphylococci PJI.
