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.
Use of hypnosis for therapeutic purposes tends to spread. However, the neural mechanisms underlying hypnosis is still debated and no specific change has yet been associated with this state. In this context, it seems necessary to clarify its mechanisms and effects. Since hypnosis induces a change of consciousness state, the investigators hypothesize that this modification is accompanied by neural activity changes recordable with magnetoencephalography (MEG). The primary objective of this study is to identify neural activity changes during hypnotic trance in healthy volunteers.
Women's awareness about the danger of certain medicines taken during pregnancy presents a real public health issue. To enhance awareness and information for women and healthcare professionals, new pictograms " pregnant women " appeared on medication boxes, on October 16, 2017. These new pictograms can change women's perception of self-medication during pregnancy and of the danger of taking certain medicines for the unborn development. Furthermore, the investigators can wonder if the meaning of these pictograms is well understood. Therefore, the study's primary aim is to assess the knowledge of pregnant or childbearing age women about the pictograms associated with the danger of certain medicines taken during pregnancy.
In the absence of a medical consensus, the current management of Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome hypermobility type (hEDS) remains very speculative That's why investigators want in this study to demonstrate the beneficial contribution of an innovative therapeutic strategy combining reprogramming and substitution somatosensory. This therapy is based primarily on the somesthetic substitution provided by compression garments(VC). Indeed, the VC port associated with stimulation of the somesthetic system via a specific program of physiotherapy (e.e. centered on body awareness through movement) could potentiate the effectiveness of care, and therefore enhance its long-term beneficial effect. The patient could thus regain his mobility, his functional independence, and thus considerably increase its quality of life. Thereafter, the practice of an adapted physical activity (APA), by the sensory stimulation induced and its playful nature, will allow patients to preserve and sustain the benefits of taking load previously carried out. Validation of this therapeutic approach would offer an effective solution may subsequently be proposed to the entire medical profession as reference support in the treatment of the hEDS. This study plans to include, over a period of two years, 40 patients with hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos syndrome and 40 healthy volunteers controls. Patients will be followed for a period of one year divided into 3 periods of 4 months, between which they will be evaluated in order to quantify the impact of the intervention performed at each stage of the protocol. Each patient will benefit successively: from a classic care, over a period of 2 to 4 months, then will be treated with compressive garments or with low compressive garment during the next 4 months in association with proprioceptive physical therapy. Finally, the 4 last months, patient will participate in an APA with both dance sessions strengthening the body diagram and stretching sessions. The aim of this work is therefore to evaluate the effect of a treatment specifically oriented towards somatosensory remediation.
The main purpose of this study is the rate assessment of rescued limbs, one year after a BIOPROTEC vascular graft.
In the context of the ageing of the French population, drug iatrogeny in the elderly is a major public health issue, responsible for approximately 7,500 deaths per year and 3.4% of hospitalizations among patients aged 65 and over. The interest of the Medication Reconciliation (MR) in reducing medication errors and unintentional discrepancies in prescriptions at transition points in patients' medication care pathways no longer seems to be in doubt both in France and abroad. On the other hand, the literature on the clinical impact of these drug errors (i. e. occurrence of an adverse drug event (ADE) or readmission rates) is currently limited in France and presents variable results abroad.
An urgent priority in the field of paediatric neurorehabilitation is the development of effective early motor interventions. Hand and Arm Bimanual Intensive Therapy Including Lower Extremities (= HABIT-ILE) applies the concepts of motor skill learning and intensive training to both the Upper Extremities (UE) and Lower Extremities (LE) and has been shown to improve aspects of motor function of the UE and LE in school age children with unilateral and bilateral Cerebral Palsy (CP) across the 3 levels of the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICFDH). The principles and content of HABIT-ILE can be applied to pre-school children and this method is highly promising for early rehabilitation.
This is an open observational extended follow-up study of patients originally randomized into TOOKAD® Soluble VTP therapy or active surveillance (control group). Additional 60-month follow-up study
This is a feasibility study of electronic devices in order to reduce neuro-psychological disorders and suffering in intensive care unit (ICU) patients. A first step study is necessary to define which device is effective and safe to reduce symptom intensities, among music therapy, virtual reality with real pictures, virtual reality with artificial pictures, and common devices (radio or television). If some devices are effective to reduce patients' symptoms, a second step will be to implement and assess the impact of these tools in a multicenter trial.
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is the most common form of chronic idiopathic diffuse interstitial lung disease (DILD) in adults. It is a fibroproliferative, irreversible disease of unknown cause, usually progressive, occurring mainly from the age of 60 and limited to the lungs. IPF is a serious disease with a median survival rate at diagnosis of 3 years. The aim of the study is to set up a biocollection of serum from patients in a context of idiopathic DILD and a possible or confirmed diagnosis of common interstitial lung disease by chest CT. Patients will be recruited at the consultations of the Rennes Rare Lung Disease Competence Centre. These will be patients in stable condition or in acute exacerbation of IPF.
The cornerstone treatment for multifocal motor neuropathy (MMN), a rare and disabling dysimmune neuropathy, is intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg). The aim of this study is to identify prognostic factors of poor outcome. Data were retrospectively collected from MNN patients in three French centers. Patients were divided into two groups: a good outcome group and a poor outcome group. Demographic, clinical, biological and nerve conduction study features of MMN patients were analyzed. Identification of prognostic factors in MMN could help develop personalized treatment.
