There are about 1183 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Indonesia. 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.
Erythema Nodosum Leprosum (ENL) is a painful, debilitating complication of leprosy. Patients often require high doses of corticosteroids for prolonged periods. Thalidomide is expensive and not available in most countries. The use of corticosteroids for long periods is associated with adverse effects and mortality. It is a priority to identify alternative agents to treat ENL. Methotrexate (MTX) is a cheap, widely used medication which has been reported to be effective in ENL resistant to steroids and thalidomide.

Background: This study aims to obtain the most favorable syringe and needle combination, which causes the least pain during local anesthesia tumescent injection in the simulation of fully awake hand surgery. Methods: A randomized single-blinded controlled trial is designed for 30 adult male healthy subjects to compare the pain from injection using syringe and needle combination i.e. 1) 1 cc syringe with 26G needle, 2) 3 cc syringe with 26 G needle, and 3) 5 cc needle with 26 G needle. The injection will be performed in any of at the second, third and fourth fingers of either subject's hand randomly. The injection will be SIMPLE block technique using 1 cc of NaCl 0.9% solution under the injection speed of 30 seconds/cc. Subjects are required to rate two check-point of VAS at the timing of needle puncture and just right after the completion of the infiltration. Upon the completion of each finger, the subject is also asked to give response to seri of questions regarding the procedures and their preferences. At the end of all injections, subject is asked to rate his preference of syringe and needle combination.
This is a two arm, double blind RCT comparing the use of a single dose ciprofloxacin prior to SWL to saline alone. The multicenter trial will be conducted with a pragmatic emphasis including both high volume and low volume sites internationally.
BACKGROUND Preeclampsia is a major cause of maternal and neonatal morbidity worldwide. There is currently no cure for preeclampsia, the only definitive treatment is termination of pregnancy by induction of labour or caesarean section. Statin has been proposed to represent a new approach to improve disease outcome/prevent preeclampsia based on its multilayered activity toward pregnancy protection, including: protection of vascular endothelial cells survival, induce expression of heme oxygenase 1 (HO-1), inhibiting the release of soluble FMS-like tirosine kinase-1 (sFlt-1) and soluble endoglin (sEng), two main culprits in the pathophysiology of preeclampsia. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study is to observe the effect of pravastatin administration in patients with high risk of preeclampsia in order to reduce maternal and neonatal mortality and morbidity. METHODS This is a prospective randomized controlled clinical trial. The research will be held in 5 maternal fetal medicine centers in Indonesia (multicenter study). The recruitment will be done by permuted block random sampling methods, with sample size around 280 patients divides into two group. Patients with high risk of preeclampsia will be randomized either to get pravastatin 2 x 20 mg per oral and aspirin 1 x 80 mg (treatment group) or low dose aspirin only (control group). The patient will be followed regularly until delivery to obtain detailed maternal and neonatal outcome. OUTCOME Primary Outcomes: Maternal preeclampsia, severe preeclampsia, gestational hypertension, indicated preterm delivery less than 37 weeks, indicated preterm delivery less than 34 weeks, maternal complications, length of hospital stay, and any serious adverse event. Secondary Outcomes: Composite fetal/neonatal mortality and morbidity (stillbirth, neonatal death, respiratory distress syndrome, intracerebral hemorrhage, neonatal sepsis, intra uterine growth restriction [Small for Gestational Age (SGA) < 5th centile], and necrotizing enterocolitis), birthweight, birthweight percentile, level of care (well baby, intermediate, NICU), NICU length of stay, ventilator usage, and length of perinatal hospital stay. KEYWORDS: pravastatin, preeclampsia, neonatal mortality, neonatal morbidity
The prevalence of cardiac arrests is still high worldwide. Despite the return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC), mortality and morbidity in post cardiac arrest patients is reported high. Comprehensive management is essential in treating patients with post cardiac arrest syndrome. Adequate circulatory stability is achieved with fluid therapy, vasoactive drug therapy, and consideration of mechanical support. Intra-Aortic Ballon Pump (IABP) is one of the most feasible and available mechanical support in developing countries including Indonesia. There are several benefits of IABP reported in acute myocardial infarction complicated with cardiogenic shock. Nevertheless, the IABP-SHOCK II study revealed contradictive result which is IABP support was not improving mortality in acute myocardial infarction complicated with cardiogenic shock after revascularization. Other study, Korean Acute Myocardial Infarction Registry (KAMIR), also reported no benefits of IABP support in cardiogenic shock patients. But, the study the investigators mentioned earlier is a registry study, attributed to selection bias and several confounding factors resulting mismatch in population. There are no consideration to IABP time of initiation and duration of use in both studies. The Investigator is aiming to prove the early insertion of IABP to a better outcome compared with the absence of early IABP. The objective of the study is to assess mortality in post cardiac arrest syndrome patients with early insertion of IABP support. A total of 102 subjects will be enrolled in this study, divided into IABP and non-IABP group. The primary outcome is in-hopital-mortality, and various indicators in the pathomechanisme of post cardiac arrest syndrome will be measured in 30 minutes and 6 hours after ROSC. Effective lactate clearance, IL-6, Beclin-1, Caspase-3, a-vO2 diff, and ScvO2, cardiac output, VTI, TAPSE and ejection fraction will be measured and analized between the two groups.
