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.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and the feasibility, and the success of engraftment of the introduction of Cal-1 gene-transduced haematopoietic cell populations (Ttn and HSPCtn) in patients with HIV-1-related high-risk lymphoma.
Anesthesia causes respiratory changes and complications, which are the main causes of complications and anesthesia-related deaths. Among the complications, the rapid appearance of lung atelectasis is well known, deteriorating the hematosis during anesthesia, and inducing secondary pulmonary complications. Prevention or limitation of the atelectasis would be a way to improve the safety of patients who have a limited respiratory function. The application of a positive expiratory pressure (PEP) is an effective prevention method for atelectasis, that have been only demonstrate in patients under mechanical ventilation. The high flow nasal cannula is a non-invasive technique easy to perform and allowing a PEP. High flow nasal cannula is safe to use, and the interface is free from local skin complications. Chest X-ray (bad sensibility) or CT are usually used for the diagnosis of atelectasis, but these two exams involve irradiation for patient. MRI and pulmonary ultrasonography has now been validated in adults. MRI are relatively long, and allow to investigate the atelectasis with only a short additional acquisition time. Thus, it would be the first study on the effect of the PEP on the impact and the volume of the atelectasis during general anesthesia in spontaneous ventilation in children. By the way this is the first study on lung's anatomical effects of high flow nasal cannula. It is a monocentric, intervention, randomized, superiority study whose main purpose is to show the reduction of the atelectasis through the use of high flow nasal cannula versus a high concentration mask for pediatric anesthesia during MRI. The studied population is all the children between 6 months and 5 years with a pediatric indication of general anesthesia for MRI. The primary goal is to show a reduction of volume (cm3) of the atelectasis via the application of a PEP by high flow nasal cannula. The main assessment criteria is the ratio of atelectasis volume/total lung volume. The prevalence of the atelectasis will be evaluated by MRI lung and measured using 3D reconstruction software. The duration of the examination and the anesthesia is slighty lengthened, 3 to 5 minutes for a 40 minutes' exam. The secondary objective is to show a match between the atelectasis on MRI and ultrasound.
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) syndrome affects 40-60% of patients presenting with cardiovascular diseases. Cheyne-Stokes respiration is a type of central apnea characterised by the presence of at least three consecutive episodes of apnea and/or hypopnea separated by a crescendo-decrescendo variation of the breathing amplitude with a cycle length ≥ 40 seconds and a central apnea/hypopnea index ≥ 5/h, for at least two hours of recording. The association between heart failure and Cheynes-Stokes respiration is known and a recent study showed that Cheynes-Stokes respiration was associated with more severe heart failure. Moreover, a medical and medical/financial benefit of the early detection of cardiac decompensation has been reported. The purpose of this feasibility study is to investigate the benefit of Cheyne-Stokes respiration remote monitoring in CPAP-treated patients with OSA for the early detection of significant cardiac events (heart failure, rhythm disorder, diastolic dysfunction). To achieve this aim, a modified approach of CPAP remote monitoring is proposed based on the performance of the latest generation of positive pressure devices from ResMed, AirSense™ 10 Autoset™, which can detect and record the presence of Cheynes-Stokes respiration. For a period of 12 months, in addition to the usual daily remote monitoring (CPAP adherence, pressure settings, level of air leakages), the healthcare provider will systematically monitor the CSR data whenever the AHI increases significantly. Physicians will be alerted when a CSR occurs and they will see the patients within a short time for pulmology and cardiology consultations in order to screen the onset of significant cardiac event. After the 12-month period of modified remote monitoring, the telemedicine returns to the usual procedure. Patients who had at least one CSR occurrence during the first 12-month period will be followed up to 24 months to assess their medical condition.
Comparative study of two information modalities during the care course, aiming to propose the preservation of fertility to young women with breast cancer (but not yet under treatment): standard oral information during the PF consultation vs. an online decision support tool, consulted prior to the PF consultation, during which the standard oral information is provided.
Health care professionals lack tools to deal with acute pain in patients with moderate to severe dementia during daily nursing situations. Care-induced pain in institutionalized persons with cognitive impairments can cause anxiety and behavioral problems.The aim of this study is to demonstrate that a systematic identification of pain associated with the use of social robots such as the PARO robot may contribute to a better anticipation and management of care-induced pain. The investigators hypothesize that an individual use of the PARO robot would bring relaxation to the patient, a distraction regarding the aversive situation of care and, thus, it would prevent manifestations of acute pain in patients with dementia. Secondary objectives of the study : 1. determine the effect of the use of PARO during painful cares on quality of life, medication of patients, and perceived workload of the health-care team. 2. examine socio-demographic and clinical responders' participants to the intervention, and, 3. identify essential elements regarding cost-effectiveness of a systematic evaluation of pain and a mediation with the PARO robot in care-induced pain
Health care renunciation is a factor that can alter patients' health status and increase the costs of its support. To date, there is no national data on the renunciation of care. This study will initially characterize the different forms of health care renunciation in patients with chronic respiratory diseases, treated with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) or non-invasive ventilation (NIV) , and analyze it impact on treatment compliance and health processes. The follow-up of these patients during 5 years will define renunciation trajectories (transition from the state of "renouncing" to "non-renouncing" and vice versa) and their impact on treatment compliance. The investigators hypothesize that a patient becoming renounced on a given treatment also decreases his treatment compliance (CPAP or NIV ). The impact of the renunciation trajectory on the patient's follow-up in terms of hospitalizations and deaths will also be studied.
Inflammatory Bowel Diseases (IBD) often affect psychological, family, social and professional dimensions of patients' life, leading to disability which is essential to quantify as part of Patient-Reported Outcomes (PROs) newly included in the therapeutic targets to reach in IBD patients. Up to now, the IBD-Disability Index (IBD-DI) was the only validated tool to assess functional status, but it is not appropriate for use in clinical practice. The IBD Disk was then developed, a shortened and self-administered tool, adapted from the IBD-DI, in order to give immediate representation of patient-reported disability. However, the IBD Disk has not been validated yet in clinical practice. The aims of the VALIDate study is to validate this tool in a large population of French IBD patients and to compare it to the already validated IBD-DI.
Hepatic artery and portal flows are both regulated to assume the whole hepatic blood flow. Each counts for respectively 25% and 75%. That so-called "buffer response" assumes that when portal flow increases, hepatic artery flow decreases. During fluid challenge in intensive care unit, fluid challenge is often administered to improve hepatic perfusion. That observation is not demonstrated. The aim of the study is to test buffer response and portal flow during fluid challenge.
This research uses the Liquid Chromatography coupled to tandem Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS / MS) technique on dried blot spot samples for the neonatal screening of congenital adrenal hyperplasia. The main objective of this study is to demonstrate that this technique allow dosage of adrenal steroids on dried blot spot samples as efficiently and with the same sensitivity than the current technic on a cohort of 132 newborns aged 2 to 5 days, with a gestational age greater than or equal to 30 weeks of amenorrhea.
This national, open-label study is designed to give complementary efficacy, safety and patient reported outcomes (PROs) data in participants with active relapsing forms of MS. Participants will receive a maximum of 2 treatment cycles of ocrelizumab infusions: an initial dose of two 300 milligram (mg) infusions separated by 14 days followed by one single infusion of 600 mg ocrelizumab 24 weeks after the first infusion. Disease activity is determined by clinical relapses and/or Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) activity.
