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 project aims to measure the effect of a semantic rehabilitation protocol for patients with primary progressive semantic aphasia and using the SCED methodology.
The use of physical restraints is common practice in Intensive Care Units (ICU). This medically prescribed procedure requires full attention of medical and paramedical teams for its implementation, monitoring and ending, as a major restriction of patients' individual freedom. French highest authority for health has defined, for geriatrics and psychiatric units, ten criteria of good practice for physical restraints' use. Routine practice reports critically ill patients' safety as main reason of use. This decision, often left to the sole discretion of nurses, varies according to their own representation of this risk, and depends on several factors: seniority in ICU, nurse to patient ratio and personal workload. In order to reduce practices subjectivity and heterogeneity, we have developed a decision-making tool for physical restraints implementation. This tool is based on objective scales used on a daily basis concerning neurological status (Richmond Agitation-Sedation Scale (RASS) and Confusion Assessment Method for the ICU (CAM-ICU)). Disorientation or delirium can lead to severe incidents by promoting accidental removing of important devices such as arterial of venous line, drains among others. However, physical restraints are recognized as a major cause of delirium and agitation. Critically ill patients require rigorous evaluation of organ dysfunctions necessitating adequate invasive equipments, with associated risks of unexpected removal or alteration. Such events could urge caregivers to use physical restraints. Based on recent literature, about a third of ICU patients are restrained, and accidental deconditioning is mainly observed within these particular patients. In addition, three categories of patients have been defined according to the invasive nature of their equipment and therefore according to the risk associated with an unexpected withdrawal. Finally, presence of patient's family and their adherence to its surveillance were also implemented into the tool. Main study objective is to jointly investigate effectiveness and tolerance of a decision-making tool guiding physical restraints use in ICU patients.
Based on one focus group of caregivers and one group of patients treated by surgery for breast cancer this study is an attempt to identify the specific needs of this population and then develop the BEAUTIFY care pathway.This study aims to build a new multidisciplinary care pathway (BEAUTIFY = BrEast cAncer qUaliTy of lIfe aFter surgerY) with post-operative follow-up via electronic patient-reported outcomes of breast cancer surgery complications in order to optimize the quality of life of patients.
This is a retrospective evaluation of the impact of a double dose regimen of immunotherapy use in cancer treatment compared to the single-dose regimen on the occurrence of clinically significant adverse events. The aim of this study is to provide evidence-based arguments to help clinicians to propose the best treatment regimen for each patient.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate pembrolizumab (MK-3475) subcutaneous (SC) administration as the first-line therapy in the treatment of metastatic squamous and nonsquamous NSCLC by assessing the pharmacokinetics (PK), safety, and efficacy of pembrolizumab SC injection in combination with standard-of-care chemotherapy. The primary hypothesis of the study is Pembrolizumab SC is noninferior to pembrolizumab intravenous (IV) for Cycle 1 Area Under Curve (AUC) and Cycle 6 minimal concentration (Ctrough) at steady state. Participants who discontinue study treatment after receiving the first course of 35 administrations of pembrolizumab (approximately up to 2 years) for reasons other than disease progression or intolerability, may be eligible for a second course of pembrolizumab for up to approximately 1 additional year if they have experienced radiographic disease progression per RECIST 1.1 as assessed by BICR after stopping first course treatment.
The purpose of this study is to find out whether the study drug, LY3537982, is safe and effective in cancer patients who have a specific genetic mutation (KRAS G12C). Patients must have already received or were not able to tolerate the standard of care, except for specific groups who have not had cancer treatment. The study will last up to approximately 4 years.
Retinal surgeries are now performed in some hospitals with sub-Tenon anesthesia to replace conventional peribulbar anesthesia. The advantages of performing the surgery with Tenonian anesthesia can be: the cost reduced due to the non-intervention of an anesthesiologist, no pre-operative anesthetic consultation, no waiting period for the effectiveness of the peribulbar anesthesia (15-20min to have the effect of anesthesia of the eye). In addition, there are more numerous and dangerous complications of peribulbar anesthesia than sub-Tenonian anesthesia, however it allows the eye to remain stationary and to perform precise surgery safely, as long as the patient does not move his head. Performing a sub-Tenonian anesthesia also makes it possible to carry out surgeries more quickly, this method having an immediate effect and being performed by the surgeon, without the intervention of an anesthesiologist. The edema effect under the post / conjunctiva swells the area around the eye and allows partial oculomotor limitation. Finally, for the patient, recovery is faster: no sedation or venous route. To date, however, no study has proven that the surgeon can safely operate on the patient without increased complications compared to peribulbar anesthesia. This study aims to show that simple sub-Tenonian anesthesia in a short outpatient circuit does not induce more pain or discomfort for the patient than a longer outpatient circuit with bed and anesthesiologist. No studies have been performed on purely local anesthesia without a venous route. For this, patients operated on at the Foch hospital without an anesthesiologist under subtenon's anesthesia will be compared to patients operated on under peribulbar anesthesia with an anesthesiologist at the Pierre Cherest clinic.
The main objective is to demonstrate that dTMS is more efficient than high frequency rTMS with a conventional coil. The patient will receive treatment arm A or B : Arm A : classic rTMS treatment (use of the 8-shaped coil) and standard therapy Arm B: treatment with deep rTMS (use of the H-shaped coil (helmet)) and standard therapies. 20 rTMS sessions are planned (5 sessions per week) and 3 follow-up visits : at Day 30, Day 60 and Day 90.
Labor induction is a common medical technique. There is no consensus on which technique is better than the others. Misoprostol is an analogue of Prostaglandin E1 previously used off-label in labor induction. Its low cost, room-temperature storage, and diverse route options have made it an alternative to PGE2 in labor induction. As of 2018, oral misoprostol 25 μg tablet was licensed for labor induction. Very few studies have been performed on oral misoprostol 25 μg and none compared it with the PGE2s mostly used in induction on unfavorable cervix at term. The investigators compared the safety and the efficacy between the oral misoprostol 25 μg Angusta® used since 20/02/2020 and the vaginal dinoprostone previously used in gel or diffuser over two consecutive periods from 01/01/2019 to 19/02/2020 for the dinoprostone and from 20/02/2020 to 07/04/2021 for the misoprostol.
