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 extracorporeal CO2 removal (ECCO2R) has been recently proposed in case of Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) in order to reduce pulmonary injuries induced by the mechanical ventilation. A reducing of tidal volume and/or respiratory rate is thus expected using this extracorporeal respiratory support. However, most of existing devices of ECCO2R can apply only a limited extracorporeal flow, often less than 1L/min, which limits the CO2 exchanges and does not allow to reach an ultraprotective ventilation. An extracorporeal flow higher should logically maximalize CO2 removal and allow reducing intensity of mechanical ventilation. Works focused on high-flow ECCO2R (2-3 L/min) in setting of ARDS are therefore mandatory to better understand apprehend the phenomena of gazes changes with this device and confirm the added-value in management of these specific patients.
In this study, the investigators are attempting to evaluate the influence of socio-economic factors on the functional recovery (physical and psychological) of patients who developed ARDS after a COVID-19 infection, with the aim of offering personalized medical and social follow-up and support measures in order to avoid medium- and long-term complications, which can result in handicaps, reduced quality of life, and a higher risk of death.
Emotional skills are the ability to use emotions cleverly in daily life. Good emotional skills are associated with better mental and physical health in healthy and clinical populations. However, to our knowledge, cancer patients have never benefited from an intervention aiming at increasing their emotional skills. Our goal was thus to design and test such an intervention. A prospective, multi-center, randomized controlled trial (RCT) will be conducted in esogastric and lung cancer patients after antineoplastic treatments. Forty-three patients are expected in each arm. The primary outcome is the change in emotional skills assessed using a patient-reported validated questionnaire between the start and two weeks after the end of the intervention and at 2-month follow-up. The experimental arm will have to follow three individual sessions on emotional skills (i.e. identification, understanding, expression and regulation of emotions) while the control arm will have to follow three sessions of relaxation. In each arm, the first session can be held face to face or over the phone and the last two sessions will be held over the phone. Patients have exercises to practice in between sessions.It is hypothesised that the experimental group will experience a greater increase in emotional skills than the control group.
In patients with gingival cicatricial pemphigoid (CP), clinical experience has shown that periodontal treatment is beneficial in addition to medical treatment, because the latter does not always allow optimal gingival healing. However in practice, the basic periodontal treatment, combining subgingival scaling and debridement, may be insufficient especially for severe forms of erosive gingivitis. Therefore, a better knowledge of the periopathogenic flora in such patients would facilitate the implementation of a more appropriate and efficient periodontal therapy. In order to meet this objective, we propose a qualitative analysis of the periodontal microbiota in case of gingival CP via a bi-centric observational microbiological pilot study.
Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is one of the main elective orthopedic surgery. Recent studies have proven that patients undergoing an elective THA who are part of a fast track surgery program including an opioid free anesthesia (OFA) presented a decrease of mortality and a reduced in-hospital length of stay. Based on the anatomical knowledges, the Quadratus Lumborum Block seems to be an interesting locoregional technique for patients undergoing THA. So far, there is no recommanded locoregional aesthesia in this indication. The investigators hypothezised that QLB would give an efficient analgesia in the 24h following a THA. Therefor, the study performed a prospective, randomized, double blind trial in the Nice Universitary hospital of Pasteur 2 and in Arnault Tzanck Institute among all patients who underwent THA, comparing a QLB using ropivacaïne 2mg/ml 20ml vs isotonic saline solution 20 ml.The main end-point is the decrease opiod consumption in the 24h following THA.
Cephalic duodenopancreatectomy is part of the curative treatment for pancreatic cancer of the head and peri-ampullary area. The mortality of the procedure is around 5%, with a morbidity ranging from 30 to 50%. Infectious complications account for 35% of overall morbidity. One of the risk factors for postoperative complications is the existence of preoperative retentional jaundice, due to tumoral obstruction of the main bile duct In these cases, it is proposed to perform preoperative bile duct drainage, preferably by endoscopic stenting (ERCP). However, several studies have shown these procedures to cause biliary contamination which could be responsible for an increase in post-operative morbidity such as infectious complications and increased length of stay in hospital.. Thus, the biliary microbial flora is more often multi-microbial and may contain multidrug-resistant nosocomial germs, The study carried out by Cortes et al., based on a control case study design, also showed that a correlation between biliary colonization and postoperative infectious complications existed in patients who benefited from a preoperative biliary drainage technique. In fact, the bacteria isolated during intraoperative bile sampling were similar, in 49% of cases, to those isolated during bacteriological samples collected postoperatively during infectious complications. The work carried out by Krüger and al has shown that the spectrum of bacteria found in the preoperative bile samples from patients who have undergone bile duct dilation is potentially not covered by standard antibiotic therapy. The aim of this observational prospective study is to investigate this correlation between biliary colonization and postoperative infectious complications, to evaluate the morbidity and postoperative mortality of cephalic duodenopancreatectomies performed at the CHRU of Nancy and to study a possible adaptation of perioperative antibiotic prophylaxis.
When oral rehydration is impossible, enteral rehydration via the nasogastric route has been the recommended method of rehydration since 2008 by ESPGHAN ( European Society for Paediatric Gastroenterology Hepatology and Nutrition ), for children with acute gastroenteritis. However, these recommendations are rarely followed in France. These recommendations were not applied in the Children's Emergency Department of BREST University Hospital. The investigators changed the protocol and shared it with the caregivers of the emergency unit. The investigators studied the impact of this change of protocol
