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.
Feasibility study, comparing experimental treatment (DBLHU closed-loop system) with reference treatment (Low Glucose Predictive Suspend system) in 7 patients going through a series of N-of-1 trials. Each N-of-1 trial consists in a prospectively planned, multiple crossover study in a single individual. Two blocks of two periods of four weeks each (closed loop or open loop) will be conducted. Within each block, the sequence closed loop-open loop or open loop-close loop is randomized. Outcomes will be analyzed on the third and fourth weeks of period. A remote monitoring system managed by specialized nurse on behalf of diabetologist, is provided in closed-loop session. An extension period of 48 weeks with the DBLHU System (closed-loop condition) will be performed at the end of the crossover study phase in real life conditions (without remote monitoring).
Pressure support ventilation allows intubated ICU patients to breathe spontaneously. Among specific settings, the adjustment of the trigger value (or threshold for triggering the ventilator) has not been explored to date. The trigger threshold corresponds to the sensitivity of the ventilator to detect patient's inspiratory effort and then deliver the predefined pressure support to inflate the lungs and deliver a tidal volume. The purpose of this study is to explore the influence of trigger level on pulmonary and ventilatory physio (-patho)logical parameters in spontaneously breathing ICU patients.
The proposed clinical study aims at validating the diagnostic performance, in comparison with a reference ECG, of Withings HWA08 watch for the automatic identification of atrial fibrillation (AF).
In developed countries cancer has become the second leading cause of death after cardiovascular disease. The lung is a particularly exposed organ since broncho-pulmonary cancers rank second in terms of incidence, and the first rank in terms of mortality of all cancers listed in like reported in United States. Lung resection surgery is currently the recommended curative treatment for the early stages of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Despite this preferred indication, some patients can not be eligible for surgery because of their cardiovascular or respiratory comorbidities or their impaired functional capacity. Thus, the evaluation of aerobic capacity through cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) of patients estimated at risk of postoperative complication is now recommended to estimate the level of predictive risk associated. The American Thoracic Society and the European Respiratory Socitety agree on thresholds of <10 and> 20 ml/kg/min of maximum oxygen uptake (VO2peak) respectively determining a high or low postoperative risk, between these two thresholds risk is considered moderate. Aerobic capacity is traditionally expressed in terms of maximum oxygen uptake (VO2max or VO2peak) evaluated during an incremental CPET. In patients with significant respiratory impairment, these tests are often limited by ventilation and sub-maximally on the metabolic or cardiac parameters. However, the analysis of the VO2 kinetic during a constant-intensity test of moderate intensity is also a relevant way of measuring aerobic conditioning. Indeed, the time constant (τ) of phase II of VO2 kinetics (VO2τ) is a marker that closely reflects the adjustment of oxidative metabolism in skeletal muscle. Analysis of the kinetic parameters of the cardio-respiratory response to exercise has been shown to be reproducible and training-sensitive in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The value of VO2τ was also reported to be strongly correlated with markers of severity and prognosis in COPD patients. Previous work has shown that exercise training can improve the speed of the VO2 kinetic response in COPD patients as well as in healthy subjects. To date, no study to our knowledge has evaluated the kinetics of the cardiorespiratory response during moderate intensity constant-load test in patients with NSCLC. In this context, this work aims to evaluate the applicability of this measure as well as its evolution during a preoperative exercise training program in patients with NSCLC.
The primary objective is to evaluate the efficacy of monthly 225 mg sc fremanezumab in adult participants with migraine and major depressive disorder (MDD) The secondary objectives are to evaluate the efficacy of monthly 225 mg sc of fremanezumab in adult participants with migraine and MDD on the reduction of MDD symptoms, responder rates in monthly migraine days, improving quality of life, improving disability, and the safety and tolerability of monthly 225 mg sc and quarterly 675 mg sc fremanezumab in adult participants with migraine and MDD. The total duration of participant participation in the study is planned to be approximately 28 weeks.
In this prospective observational study among sickle cell children aged 7 to 17 years, who face many experience of pain, pain will be assessed during incentive spirometry sessions. Then a relation between, inspiratory volume, pain and the length of hospital stay will be identified . Currently, there is no scientific data regarding the correlation between acute pain during vaso-occlusive crisis, incentive spirometry and the impact on length of hospital stay. In fact, physiotherapist experience's in the pediatric department suggests that the pain expressed by the child is not always correlated with inspiratory capacity. The absence of pain is one of the reasons for hospital discharge after decompensation in patients with sickle cell disease. However, no scientific study has linked incentive spirometry, pain and length of hospital stay. Investigator assume that these children underestimate the real pain and its impact on breathing pattern, and presume that the maximal inspiratory volume during spirometry sessions will be a better reflect of pain than standard pain scale. The aim of this study is to show that inspiratory volume would be a better indicator of discharge from hospitalization than actual pain scales.
Posterior cortical atrophy (PCA) is manifested by neuro-visual disorders that alter the spatial location of objects, their manipulation and/or recognition. Its etiology is most often neurodegenerative, with a major impact on the autonomy and mood of patients and their families. Few studies have focused on non-medication management of these disorders. The present study thus has a double objective: the development of a complete tool to work on the recognition, localization and/or manipulation of objects; and the evaluation of the effectiveness of this type of management.
The investigators hypothesize that positron emission tomography with fluorocholline (F18-choline PET) will reduce the proportion of unnecessary invasive surgery decisions and that the higher cost of positron emission tomography versus MIBI scintigraphy (Tc99m-sestaMIBI ) will be offset by lower cost in terms of type. surgery performed wisely and complications.
Preoperative anemia is associated with an important increase in transfusions of red blood cells (RBC) compared to a non-anemic patient in cardiac and non cardiac surgery. Furthermore transfusion is also an independent factor of morbi-mortality with notably an increase in the infectious risk, immunological, an increase of the risk of cardiac decompensation, respiratory decompensation Transfusion Related Acute Lung Injury (TRALI) or Transfusion Associated Cardiac Overload (TACO), and an increase in mortality of 16%. Management of perioperative transfusion is therefore a public health issue. Since 2010, the World Health Organization (WHO) has been promoting a systematic approach to implement blood management programs for the patient to optimize the use of resources and promote quality and safety of care. Improving the relevance of transfusion in cardiac surgery could be achieved by optimizing the management of patients around 2 axis: A:non-drug intervention : Review of Practices to Improve the Management of Perioperative RBC Transfusion B:drug intervention : Systematic correction of pre- and postoperative iron, vitamin deficiencies and anemia The aim of this program is to improve the relevance of transfusion in cardiac surgery and to limit the morbidity and mortality induced by transfusion. This program is part of a global project of pre, per and postoperative management of the patient undergoing cardiac surgery programmed under extracorporeal circulation (ECC). It requires a multidisciplinary approach between cardiologists, anesthesiologists and intensivists, perfusionists, cardiac surgeons and paramedical teams to optimize the management of the patient.
Screening for genital infection (GI), sexually transmitted infection (STI) and asymptomatic carriage of group B streptococcus (GBS) in pregnant women is a common reason for medical appointments. Conventional testing is performed by using vaginal and/or cervical classic sampling (VCS). Vaginal self-sampling (VSS) has progressively emerged as an alternative to VCS for STI agent screening. The use of vaginal self-sampling (VSS) could facilitate follow-ups and potentially help in the prevention of gynaecological disorders.
