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 is a multicentre, randomised, open-label, parallel-group, active-controlled, phase IV study to assess the reduction of daily Symbicort® maintenance to anti-inflammatory reliever treatment only in participants with severe eosinophilic asthma on Fasenra® treatment, while maintaining asthma control.
Nowadays in France, there is no organized screening of the hearing loss in the elderly; however, it is a very common disease and simples tests to perform to detect it exist. Lots of studies use surveys to identify deaf people; but physicians often consider them too sensitive and less specific because lots of people were classified into " deaf " people meanwhile they have a subnormal tonal audiogram. Now, it's known that it corresponds to the "Hidden Hearing Loss" concept: it's defined as an auditive disturbance in a noisy ambiance in people with a normal tonal audiometry; corresponding to infraclinical cochlear lesions. These lesions, if detected early, can be prevented to avoid an audition degradation in time. The aim of the study is to determinate the values of sensitivity and specificity of the HHIE-S survey translated into French, so it could be used as a screening method of hearing loss in the elderly and as a prevention of cochlear damages.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the benefit of adding mental visualization to a training program in medical education. Undergraduate medical students will be randomized before participating in a training program on airway management during rapid sequence induction. In the control group, participants will receive traditional teaching including theoretical courses and procedural simulation. In the intervention group, in addition to traditional teaching, participants will be trained and encouraged to practice mental visualization. The main outcome will be clinical performance during a standardized high-fidelity simulation of rapid sequence induction assessed using a specific pre-established checklist.
Intra hospital transport of ICU patients is still at high risk of respiratory complications.We propose to determine if endotracheal tube clamping prior to disconnect ventilator allows to avoid oxygenation decrease.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a new medical device on the improvement of reading skills of dyslexic patients.
Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is a major public health problem and its diagnosis remains a challenge for the emergency physician. The European Society of Cardiology recommends a troponin dosage and renew it if necessary during any suspicion of ACS. However, the criteria leading to initiate a diagnostic procedure during chest pain are imprecise. The fear is, on the one hand, to miss a potentially vital diagnosis and, on the other hand, to expose a large number of patients to unnecessary examinations. The CARE rule (also known as HEAR score) seems to streamline this first step. It assigns a value of 0 to 2 using 4 items: Characteristic of pain, Age, Risk factors and Electrocardiogram (ECG). The search for an ACS is not justified if the sum of the points is <2 (negative rule) and, inversely, a troponin determination must be carried out if the sum is > 1 (positive rule). The aim of the study is to demonstrate the safety and interest of the CARE rule associated with the HEART score to streamline ACS's diagnostic approach to thoracic pain in emergencies departments.
The administration of medication, fluid resuscitation, or even nutrition in intensive care unit (ICU) patients, requires one or more infusion lines which can be peripheral or central. Midline catheter is a 10 to 20 cm long peripheral venous catheter, which can be used for up to 28 days. These features make it a good alternative to central venous and conventional peripheral venous catheters. Midlines are routinely used in the ICU of Lorient Hospital, currently inserted by doctors. In association with the Regional Health Agency, the investigators are currently implementing a project of task delegation to ICU nurses, so that they could insert Midlines' catheters. The aim of the study is to increase the use of Midlines in the unit to reduce the exposure to central venous catheters and their complications, such as infections or thrombosis. The investigators propose to conduct a prospective monocentric study to compare the frequency of Midlines'use, before and after the task delegation. The primary objective is to compare the duration of exposure to central venous catheters between the two periods. Secondary objectives are to compare the duration of exposure to peripheral venous catheters and Midlines, and the catheter-related infections and thrombosis.
The purpose of this research is to identify the New Psychoactive Substances (NPS) that are responsible for intoxicating patients in ski resort during winter activities.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether heart rate variability levels and pupillometric measures are effective objective predictors of anxiety among patients before surgery.
This Is a Multicenter, Randomized, Open-Label, Parallel-Group, Phase 2 Study to Compare the Efficacy and Safety of Lenvatinib in Combination with Ifosfamide and Etoposide Versus Ifosfamide and Etoposide in Children, Adolescents, and Young Adults with Relapsed or Refractory Osteosarcoma.
