There are about 9745 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Israel. 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 investigators intend to compare the rate of urinary retention among female patients after vaginal delivery under epidural anesthesia, depending on bladder catheterization type, either by a foley catheter inserted adjacent to epidural anesthesia or intermittent catheterization applied every 4 hours during labor.
The aim of this study is to test a complementary therapy intervention (reflexology) that will assist in improving quality of life (QOL) for patients undergoing chemotherapy for acute myeloid leukemia. within the context of conventional medical care. Quality of life will be assessed via intermediate indicators: 1) physical indicators (greater physical functioning, lower presence of symptoms) 2) emotional indicators (greater spirituality, lower anxiety, and lower depressive symptomology); by a specific questionnaire. 3) chemotherapy side effects associated with the digestive system.
Electroencephalograhy (EEG) is used as a tool for diagnosing epilepsy/convulsions. During the recording, especially for childen who are suspected of having abbcence epilepsy the investigators will perform an EEG recording including a provocation test of hyperventilation in order to induce epileptic discharges. There is no clear instruction about the position of the child during performing this hyperventilation provocation. Clinical observations showed that this provocation is more effective when it's performed in the siiting position. No study was previously performed to investigate this issue
The purpose of this clinical study is to evaluate the safety and the efficacy of BonoFill-II as a bone filler containing the patient's own (autologous) adipose (fat) tissue-derived cells in reconstructing bone in two clinical indications: 1. Bone augmentation (e.g. sinus augmentation) 2. Bone grafting after removal of cysts from jaws
The primary objective of this program is to apply a virtual reality (VR) cognitive-motor intervention (compared to active and passive control groups) to delay or slow cognitive decline of middle-aged adults who have a family history of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and thus are at particularly high risk of developing the disease.
The Computerized Registry of Patients with Venous Thromboembolism (RIETE) is a multidisciplinary Project initiated in march 2001 and consisting in obtaining an extensive data registry of consecutive patients with venous thromboembolism. The main objective is to provide information on the Internet to help physicians to improve their knowledge on the natural history of thromboembolic disease, particularly in those subgroups of patients who are usually not recruited in randomized clinical trials (pregnant women, elderly patients, disseminated cancer, severe renal insufficiency, patients with contraindications to anticoagulation therapy, extreme body weight, etc), with the purpose of decreasing mortality, frequency of thromboembolic recurrences as well as bleeding complications and arterial events. As an additional objective RIETE is also aimed to create predictive scores that help physicians to better identify patients with high risk of presenting some of these complications. The primary parameters recorded by the registry comprise details of each patient's clinical status, including any coexisting or underlying conditions, and the type, dose, duration and outcome (during the first 3 months of therapy) of antithrombotic treatment. Study endpoints are clinically recognized (and objectively confirmed) recurrences of VTE, major and minor bleeding complications, and death.
To investigate the effect of intracutaneous suture closure versus Glue (dermabond) closure at cesarean section (CS) on long-term cosmetic and maternal outcome.
A non-inferiority study to demonstrate efficacy of the HAVAI minimally invasive device compared to standard of surgical care 1st metatarsal osteotomy (SSOC)
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the treatment of peritoneal ultrafiltration can improve survival and quality of life of refractory congestive heart failure with special accent on preserving residual renal function and peritoneal membrane characteristics/
Interventional, open label, Phase I/II, Safety and Proof-of-Concept Study, with a follow up period of 180 days after the transplantation of ApoGraft.
