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.
Evaluation of the rate of positive RT-PCR SARS-CoV-2 test at 1 month of COVID infection among elderly people. It is unclear how long an individual with COVID-19 will remain "sick" and "contagious". It appears that SARS-CoV-2 can be transmitted before symptoms appear and throughout the course of the disease. They investigators did not find any study on a COVID + geriatric population reassessing carriage at 1 month even though age seems to be a risk factor for prolonged excretion as suggested in the study following study: Xu K, Chen Y, Yuan J, Yi P, Ding C, Wu W, et al. Factors associated with prolonged viral RNA shedding in patients with COVID-19. Clinical Infectious Diseases. 2020 Apr 9; ciaa351
The current outbreak of Covid-19 requires the wearing of FFP2 respiratory protective devices by healthcare personnel to limit their contamination. However, there is currently a shortage of masks in France due to insufficient national stocks while the disease is spreading. There is an urgent need to save FFP2 masks to enable healthcare personnel to continue to provide care in complete safety. Contamination of staff due to insufficient masks would have consequences by limiting access to care for infected patients and putting caregivers at potential risk of death. Caregiver protection is also intended to contain the risk of nosocomial epidemics. We propose the use of ARFC masks by Covid-19+ units. These ARFC masks provide optimal security against the risk of aerosolization of contaminated biological liquids. They are masks modified to be usable by civilians, resulting from the technology of combat masks, specially designed for use in NRBC (Nuclear, Radiological, Biological and Chemical) atmosphere.
The purpose of the study is to learn whether the study drug (capmatinib) helps to control lung cancer better compared to a single agent chemotherapy (docetaxel) and whether it is safe when given to patients suffering from a particular type of lung cancer. This type of cancer is called non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with certain specific genetic alterations (called mutations) of a gene called MET, within a specific part of the gene called exon 14.
Soccer, the most popular sport in the world, exposes players to repeated head impacts and concussions, due to contact with another player or with the ground. Moreover, routine game-play in soccer involves intentional and repeated head impacts through ball "heading", with frequent high velocities, which might cause a transient brain dysfunction. In this pre-post prospective interventional study, 22 soccer players will perform 10 headers from machine-projected soccer balls at standardized speeds, modelling routine soccer practice. They will perform heading series in 2 different oral conditions, on different days at least 1 week apart: 1) Without mouthguard and tight jaws ; 2) With mouthguard and tight jaws. The strength of the neck muscles will be measured before the heading series. The kinematic of the movement will be recorded during each impact during the 2 heading series, as well as the activity of the jaw muscles which will be recorded by electromyogram. Before and after each heading series, electrophysiological data, multimodal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and cognitive computerized assessment will be acquired
The aim of this study is to measure the effect of music therapy on pain and anxiety levels during stitches procedure in an adult emergency department.
The question of the immune response of the population, particularly of professional populations in contact with vulnerable populations (such as those with chronic conditions such as cancer), is an important issue. Knowing the evolution of this response over time in this population can help answer outstanding questions. The PRO-SERO-COV study is a seroprevalence study of caregivers working in the hospital sector with a follow-up at 3 months and 12 months. The objective is to evaluate and monitor at 3 and 12 months the serological immune status to an infection by the SARS-CoV-2 virus in active volunteer professionals working at the Institut Bergonié with different types of exposure: healthcare professionals and professionals in other services.
Disproportionate impact of COVID-19 in patients with obesity is now well established. Obesity is associated with severe forms of COVID-19 and may be a risk factor of intensive care unit (ICU) admission. Obesity is associated with COVID-19 related hospital death in a large United Kingdom cohort study. However, there is a gap of knowledge on assessment of outcomes such as severity of Acute Respiratory Distress syndrome (ARDS), duration of hospitalisation and mortality in ICU. Moreover, an obesity survival paradox has been observed in patients with ARDS. This raises the question whether the obesity paradox has been broken by COVID-19. The investigators aim to explore risk factors of in-ICU death for patient with COVID-19, including obesity and other chronic diseases and to describe the clinical course and outcomes, including the management of acute respiratory failure and other intensive care management.
Purpose of the research is to describe and compare the evolution of BSCVA after DMEK, DSAEK and UT-DSAEK for Fuchs Endothelial Corneal Dystrophy (FECD) and Moderate Pseudophakic Bullous Keratopathy (PBK). To secondarily research the correlates criterions with best spectacle corrected visual acuity (BSCVA) 12 months postoperatively.
Increase in the consumption of analgesics observed in many countries with a mediatic crisis resulting in an increasingly frequent wish of patients to wean themselves from opiates. A recent update (B. Rolland 2017) suggests that upon initiation of an opioid analgesic treatment, the patient should be informed of the risk of opioid dependence and misuse. There is no clearly validated decay scheme in the event of dependence in patients with Chronic Non-Cancer Pain. Hypotheses: - Possibility of a rapid decrease in opioid analgesic treatments at DCNC sensitized to the risk of DOP and MOP. (Protocol implemented: Multidisciplinary assessment, workshops and information sheet on chronic pain, treatments and risk of DOP, pharmacological and nonpharmacological adaptation) - Highlight the need for additional information from patients and prescribers on the risk of DOP and MOP in DCNC.
The assessment of the work of the respiratory muscles is a fundamental clinical data in intensive care, especially to guide the management of patients requiring ventilatory support. This data is difficult to access in current practice. The reference technique to estimate the work of breathing (transdiaphragmatic pressure) is not feasible in clinical routine and evaluates only the respiratory work of the diaphragm, not that of the accessory muscles. The ultrasound technique of speckle tracking allows a fine and multidimensional analysis of the deformation of the respiratory muscles during the respiratory cycle. The investigators hypothesize that the analysis of the multidimensional deformation of the diaphragm at the level of the apposition zone can produce a robust and reproducible index, which is correlated with the work of breathing. The performance of this index will be compared to that of the thickening fraction of the diaphragm. On the other hand, the investigators will evaluate the feasibility of measuring the thickening of the accessory respiratory muscles (scalene and intercostal).
