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.
Studies showed that in cases of gastrointestinal bleeding, injection tranexamic acid decreasing the risk of death and the need of surgical intervention. However, the quality of most clinical trials were not good and the results were not significant. Injection tranexamic acid does not become one of the treatment option in the international guidelines nor in national consensus, so the effectiveness and the safety of its use in the treatment of gastrointestinal bleeding remains unclear and not routinely used. In Indonesia, injection tranexamic acid in gastrointestinal bleeding is limitedly used and recorded. Therefore, a clinical trial study of injection tranexamic acid is required to assess the effectiveness and the safety in the treatment of gastrointestinal bleeding.
Tuberculosis meningitis (TBM) is the most severe manifestation of TB, resulting in death or neurological disability in up to 50% of affected patients, despite antibacterial treatment. This TBM treatment follows the model for pulmonary TB by using the same first-line TB drugs (a combination of rifampicin, isoniazid, pyrazinamide and ethambutol) and the same dosing guidelines, although it is known that penetration of two of these drugs (rifampicin and ethambutol) into cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is limited. Improvement of treatment of TBM is urgently needed. To do so, a combination of two interventions will be investigated in this study. A series of phase II clinical trials on higher doses of the pivotal TB drug rifampicin in Indonesian patients with TBM have shown that the dose of rifampicin can be increased from 10 mg/kg orally (standard dose) up to 30 mg/kg orally, resulting in a strong increase in exposure to this drug in plasma and CSF, no increase in grade III or IV adverse effects, and a reduction in mortality. Similarly, higher doses of rifampicin up to 35 mg/kg resulted in strong increases in plasma concentrations; the doses were well tolerated and reduced time to sputum conversion in African pulmonary TB patients. Next to a higher dose of rifampicin, the approved antibacterial drug linezolid seems a good candidate for a new TBM regimen. The drug penetrates well into the CSF and is applied successfully against other central nervous system (CNS) infections (e.g. caused by penicillin-nonsusceptible Streptococcus pneumoniae, vancomycin-resistant enterococci and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus). In a study in China, linezolid in a dose of 600 mg BID orally strongly increased recovery of patients with TBM response. Linezolid is also being investigated as a new drug for (drug-resistant) pulmonary TB in numerous studies, in a dose of 1200 mg once daily. More severe adverse effects to this drug typically occur only after prolonged treatment during several months, not during short-term treatment. Overall, linezolid is expected to be a promising and tolerable candidate for a new intensified TBM treatment regimen consisting of a backbone of high dose rifampicin plus linezolid.
This study aimed to know the consistency of intravascular volume measurement using USG of IVC compared to VPW chest x-ray
This study was a randomized controlled trial study. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of soursop fruit supplementation on blood pressure (BP), serum uric acid (SUA), and kidney function. The definition of prehypertension and hypertension was accepted as delivered in The Seventh Report of the Joint National Committee (JNC 7) as the systolic BP was 120 - 139 mmHg and diastolic BP was 80 - 89 mmHg for prehypertension, while systolic BP ≥ 140 mmHg or diastolic BP ≥ 90 mmHg for hypertension. Based on the study by Sja'bani (2014), the cut-off point of (SUA) was divided into 3 categories, which are normal (< 5 mg/dL), high-normal (5 - <7 mg/dL), and high (≥ 7 mg/dL). A number of 143 people with essential prehypertension and high normal uric acid level were assigned as subject in this study. Subjects were randomly assigned into two groups which are treatment and control group. For a 3 months period, the treatment group was given 2x100 g soursop fruit juice per day and the control group was left without treatment. Blood pressure was measured by medical team using Omron HEM-907 (digital automatic blood pressure monitoring) every 2 weeks (3 times readings for each) in each subject's home. Subjects were examined in sitting position. Evaluation of laboratory examination was taken at week 0, 7 and 13.
This study aimed to know the effectivity of 0.5 mg/kg propofol in the end of anesthesia to reduce the incidence of postanesthetic emergence agitation in pediatric patients under general inhalation anesthesia
This study aimed to compare Quadratus Lumborum Block to Epidural on Stress Response and Perioperative Cellular Immunological Function of Laparoscopic Nephrectomy Kidney Donor
Assessing program efficacy of under five food supplementation (PMT Biscuits) is needed after the first 6 months of exclusive breastfeeding, children were introduced to liquid and semi-solid food. In this phase of food introduction, children ability to accept food supplementation program was still questionable and the efficacy needs to be assessed. Another aspect that needed to be evaluated is assessing the efficacy of food supplementation to improve the nutritional status of wasting children in multiple cities to describe Indonesian geographical and socio-economic diversity (multi center studies). PMT biscuits supplementation intervention is accompanied by educational modules on Infant and Young Child Feeding (IYCF) in order to improve caregiver's knowledge and skills in providing economically affordable and nutritious food for their children. PMT biscuits supplementation evaluation will be assessed at 9 months observations (3 months intervals). The observation will be conducted every month up until the first 3 months then the observation will be continued in 6th and 9th months of observation.
This study is an observational study to determine phenotype and genotype of CYP2D6 as predictors of z-endoxifen concentrations in plasma of outgoing patients treated with tamoxifen for at least 4 months
