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.
a food collection will be performed in this study with type 1 diabetic patients trained to carbohydrate counting, to collect data on the meals consumed daily and their quantities for a period of 1 month.
Our knowledge on cardiovascular side effects of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) is restricted to this date to observational retrospective data (mainly case series and pharamcovigilance analysis). We aim at assessing the incidence of cardiovascular adverse side effects of ICIs by means of a prospective interventional single centre study using multiple biomarkers.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a new medical device (Atoldys/ Lexilens glasses) on the improvement of reading skills of young dyslexic subjects.
The investigators hypothesize that the clinical implementation of a deep learning AI system is an optimal tool to monitor, audit and improve the detection and classification of polyps and other anatomical landmarks during colonoscopy. The objectives of this study are to generate preliminary data to evaluate the effectiveness of AI-assisted colonoscopy on: a) the rate of detection of adenomas; b) the automatic detection of the anatomical landmarks (i.e., ileocecal valve and appendiceal orifice).
The investigators have developed an automated vasopressor controller to improve the titration of vasopressor in order to maintain mean arterial pressure (MAP) within a narrow range and have recently shown the controller was effective in both the operating room and intensive care unit. The controller has been used recently in a case series of three patients undergoing cardiac surgery and in five patients after cardiac surgery. The investigators want to compare now a manual to a closed-loop titration of vasopressor infusion in patients admitted in the Intensive Care unit after cardiac surgery
Between March and May 2020, Ile-de-France hospitals faced an influx of patients infected with the COVID 19 virus. Faced with the scale of the pandemic, the aggressiveness of this pathology, severe respiratory complications and the shortage of resuscitation beds , the teams had to make difficult decisions on the therapeutic strategy, the orientation of patients in the event of respiratory distress and their intensive care status. To do this, each establishment reflected in an emergency context on procedures for collegial deliberation and assistance in ethical reflection, based on the recommendations of the National Consultative Ethics Committee and learned societies such as the French Society. of Anesthesia and Resuscitation or the French Society of Support and Palliative Care. Some hospitals had already institutionalized the ethical approach upstream of the health crisis. For example, the Groupe d'Aide à la Réflexion Éthique Clinique (GAREC) was created in November 2005 within the Paris Saint-Joseph Hospital Group. GAREC is a collegial and multidisciplinary entity, made up of 8 members who intervene at the request of caregivers when a clinical situation turns out to be ethically complex. He gives an advisory opinion, the decision belonging to the referring physician. At the start of the COVID period, GAREC changed its structure, organization and operation in order to respond to the multiple issues posed by the complexity of the health situation. This study seeks to analyze the adaptation mechanisms put in place by this group during the epidemic period as well as the nature of the benefit provided to the caregivers who requested it, to the patients and to their relatives. - Adaptation mechanisms: during the COVID period, GAREC was extended to other paramedical professions (psychologists, nurses), thus increasing from 8 to 15 members. It has set up 2 weekly meetings, an on-call duty and on-call duty. The requests were made easier: they could be done by phone, by email, day or night. Several questions emerge: What were the motivations for enlarging the group? How were the members integrated into this group? What were its operating methods? How and by whom was it seized? For what purpose? Were the intervention teams multidisciplinary? - Nature of the benefit provided by GAREC: it will be approached by semi-structured interviews via a qualitative research method. This work is part of a broader reflective perspective: - What representation of ethics underlies this device? - Does the institutionalization of ethics help to enhance or make invisible what ethics owes to daily healthcare practices? - To what extent does the institutionalization of clinical ethics make health institutions more human and virtuous? - Under what conditions can a device like GAREC go beyond the role of ethical guarantor and transform the institution and nursing practices in the service of a collective reflective approach? This study will be carried out on patient data usually collected as part of their care and on data collected through semi-structured interviews with healthcare professionals. As such, it fits into the perspective of grounded theory.
The purpose of this study is to assess changes in intrahepatic hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) between baseline and on-treatment liver biopsy in response to JNJ-3989-based combination treatment.
French hospitals treat non-elective surgery according to three organizational models: in a dedicated multi-specialty emergency operative room (OR), in a dedicated OR within a specialized surgical platform or in any available OR from a list of non-dedicated OR. Some triage algorithms for the classification of non-elective surgery have been described but are not routinely applied. The rate of delay in the management of non-elective surgery in France is not known. Reducing this delay decreased mortality and morbidity in urgent surgery (McIsaac D, et al., CMAJ 2017). Optimizing the flow of non-elective surgery represents a major challenge. The main objective of this study is to determine the rate of delay in admission to the OR in emergency surgery through a multicenter prospective observational study in France. All patients requiring urgent surgical management (<72 hours) will be included. The ideal time for surgery was previously defined by surgeons according to the NEST classification (NEST 1: within minutes; NEST 2: < 1 hour; NEST 3: < 4 hours; NEST 4: < 12 hours; NEST 5: < 48 hours; NEST 6: < 72 hours). For each patient, the ratio between the observed time (actual Time To Surgery [aTTS] ) and the ideal time (ideal Time To Surgery [iTTS]) will be determined. The delay is identified by aTTS/iTTS ratio >1.
The progression of brain lesions after severe head trauma or subarachnoid hemorrhage results from extra cranial aggression which is well controlled in intensive care and intracranial aggression which is less well known and therefore less well managed. The detection of events that can generate new lesions from intracranial monitoring is limited and late once the lesions are irreversible. Invasive cortical depolarizations (SD) can be observed using cortical electrodes and an acquisition system having access to the usually filtered DC signal (0 to 1 Hz). SD are observed at the onset of a new attack of the cortex and spread widely away from the site of aggression. During their propagation, SD generate a significant metabolic demand, and can cause ischemic injury, particularly after meningeal or post-traumatic hemorrhage. SDs are therefore both a marker of new lesion and a mechanism of progression of primary lesions. Yet this type of monitoring is only performed in some expert centers around the world. The analysis of the feasibility and safety of the placement of cortical electrodes in this indication is therefore an essential step to study the clinical benefit of individualized management on the basis of this monitoring.
Brief Summary: Post-operative morbidity remains a reality as shown by the International Surgical Outcomes Study published in 2016 and 2019 and by several recent publications which focus mainly on hypotension and cardio-vascular complications. Other complications, such as respiratory depression, are less often studied. The hypothesis is that this connected patch could be used in surgical departments to detect a postoperative complication. Biobeat Technologies Ltd has developed a sensor which continuously records the photoplethysmographic waveform and allows the calculation of several physiological parameters: heart rate (HR), oxygen saturation (SpO2), systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), stroke volume (SV), cardiac output (CO), cardiac index (CI), systemic vascular resistance (SVR), respiratory rate (RR), and temperature. The objective of this study is the quantification of hemodynamic, respiratory and temperature abnormalities detected by routine monitoring (routine nursing follow-up) and continuous monitoring by the Biobeat patch during the first 72 postoperative hours.
