There are about 2293 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Ireland. 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 study aims to assess if EMLA or ethyl chloride spray are effective in reducing the pain associated with local anaesthetic administration in cutaneous surgery of the head and neck compared to a placebo and control group through a randomized control trial study design.
A pilot study to evaluate the feasibility of a NGS-based tumour BRCA1/2 mutation testing pathway initiated in the oncology clinic for patients with HGSEC, either at primary diagnosis or first relapse, whereby only patients with a positive germline BRCA1/2 mutation test will be referred to clinical genetics.
Intermediaries help people to connect to community-based services and supports, including physical activity and exercise groups (physical activities). They do this by acting as a link person. After receiving a referral or self-referral, they conduct an assessment, connect people to services in the community, and follow-up with people over time. This project will investigate if connecting to physical activities through an intermediary can improve health and wellbeing. It will also investigate people's experiences of working with an intermediary. This project is a pilot feasibility study, which means the investigators are evaluating the measures used and the way the trial is designed to see if they are suitable for a larger study in the future.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effect of freeze-dried blueberry powder on the gut microbiome in overweight and obese adults. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - Does the supplementation of freeze-dried blueberry powder reduce the risk of obesity or lower the weight of people with a high BMI? - Does freeze-dried blueberry powder alter the gut microbiome function? Participants will; - Mix one sachet of Study Product (freeze-dried blueberry powder/placebo) into breakfast/dessert/yoghurt daily for 56 days during the intervention phase. - Partake in 4 site visits over the 14-week period, including an initial screening visit and a follow-up visit after the intervention phase. Researchers will compare the effect of freeze-dried blueberry powder with a placebo in a population comprising overweight and obese adults to see if the gut microbiome is altered and if there is a change in body composition.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of mavacamten in adolescent patients with symptomatic obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM).
The purpose of this Expanded Access Program (EAP) is to allow patients to continue receiving treatment with copanlisib if they are currently having, in the opinion of their healthcare provider, an objective favorable response when taking copanlisib. Patients considering this access program should have no other therapeutic option, have not developed a disease and/or medical condition (including pregnancy), and/or have a toxicity that would conflict with continuing to receive copanlisib.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of alnuctamab compared to standard of care regimens in participants with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM).
Children with Food Allergy (FA) are at risk of life threatening reactions. They must carry an emergency medicine kit containing adrenaline auto-injector devices for the immediate treatment of anaphylaxis. Much research has documented the adverse impact of childhood FA on the food allergy related quality of life (FQoL) of the Carer and the family, along with reported higher levels of anxiety and stress. These adverse impacts are largely driven by the need for Carers to always be "emergency ready". Mothers of food allergic children report higher levels of anxiety compared to the rest of the family, possibly due to mothers commonly being the primary care givers responsible for the preparation of meals, childcare etc. Carers of newly diagnosed food allergic children, looking for more information about their child's FA are at risk of exposure to myths and misinformation about food allergy. These falsehoods are likely to increase further, Carers Food Allergy-related anxiety. The investigators wish to survey the frequency with which common myths on FA are believed among mothers prior to their attendance at an allergy clinic. They wish to understand the impact of "myth-busting" information on maternal anxiety or self-efficacy when provided to mothers while awaiting a specialist appointment. The research question is to determine if the online educational session is effective at decreasing anxiety and improving quality of life in Carers of FA children awaiting a specialist appointment.
The goal of the NEO2 BAV registry is to investigate the safety, effectiveness, and clinical performance of TAVI using the ACURATE neo2 valve in patients with severe BAV stenosis. The clinical, procedural, and imaging characteristics will be collected from patients with severe BAV stenosis, regardless of the phenotype, and treated with TAVI using the ACURATE neo2 bioprosthesis worldwide.
