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.
Assessing the use of a T drain approach for an anastomotic leak after gastrointestinal surgery. The study's aim is to retrospectively assess the safety and benefits of this approach.
This is a two-stage study: The objective of the first stage is to explore health literacy (HL) needs and preferences of Arab women through conducting Focus Group Discussions (FGDs). The second stage will employ conducting a HL intervention tailored to the participants' needs and preferences as presented in the FGDs. Objectives include increasing the percentage of women who utilize patient-doctor communication skills and increasing their cardiovascular disease (CVD) knowledge.The intervention consists of four sessions that will be conducted in municipality-sponsored women's groups in Jerusalem and other Arab communities. Questionnaires will be completed before and three months after the intervention. The study answers the following: Can HL workshops improve patient-doctor communication skills and CVD knowledge in Arab women.
The aim of the current study is to develop a near real-time system using infrared spectroscopy, that will evaluate the histological specimen that was removed from the uterine cavity during the hysteroscopy.
Recently, a newly developed index, the Nociceptive Level (NOL) index, was validated and showed superiority over heart rate and blood pressure for recognition and grading of intense and mild nociceptive stimuli during surgery under general anesthesia. We hypothesize that compared with standard management, NOL-guided anesthesia will lead to reduced postoperative pain scores, and during anesthesia, to increased hemodynamic stability.
The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of imipenem/cilastatin/relebactam (IMI/REL) in participants from birth to less than 18 years of age with confirmed or suspected gram-negative bacterial infection. Participants are expected to require hospitalization through completion of intravenous (IV) study intervention, and have at least one of the following primary infection types: hospital-acquired bacterial pneumonia (HABP) or ventilator-associated bacterial pneumonia (VABP); complicated intra-abdominal infection (cIAI); or complicated urinary tract infection (cUTI). Participants will be randomized in a 3:1 ratio to receive IMI/REL or active control. This study will also evaluate the efficacy of IMI/REL by assessing all-cause mortality at Day 28 post-randomization, as well as clinical and microbiological response to treatment. It will also evaluate the pharmacokinetics of IMI/REL.
Otherwise healthy index patients (IP) are randomized to either baloxavir marboxil or placebo if their influenza symptoms onset was within 48 hours of screening. Their households are enrolled within 24 hours of randomization if at least 1 household contacts (HHC) have not received influenza vaccine within 6 months of screening and if all HHC screen negative for influenza infection. The main endpoints are assessed based on multiple respiratory swabs, obtained from both IP and HHC up to 9 (+/-1) days post IP randomization, and through the assessment of symptoms.
In this study Drug-eluting microbeads (DEB) loaded with Doxorubicin will be delivered into the target Desmoid Fibromatoses (DF) tissue via selective arterial embolization by angiographic technique. The objective of the study is to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of this treatment.
A randomized partially controlled study to examine the effect of blood diversion into a heparin lithium tube on the incidence of blood culture contamination.
The aim of this study is to investigate the histological and immunohistochemical findings of the saphenous vein graft, to rule out endothelial damage as a direct result of manipulation or instrumentation by endoscopic and open conventional harvesting methods. Furthermore, to investigate if there are any differences in the surgical site infection, cardiac event and functional status between the two harvest strategies at 1-year of follow-up.
Cabergoline is frequently being requested by many postpartum women with a live newborn to suppress lactation. The aim of the study is to investigate which women desire such an intervention, and what side effects they are experiencing.
