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 purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of perioperative Lidocaine intravenous infusion in reducing postoperative pain for spine surgery patients.
The aim of this study is to determine whether different needle gauges influences the quality of the aspirated oocytes during in-vivo fertilization (IVF).
Patients with know prostate cancer (PCa) under active surveillance and aged matched controls without evidence of PCa will have a PSA blood test prior to and following standardized digital rectal examination
The Novus system intended to provide ankle dorsiflexion and knee flexion or extension in individuals with foot drop and thigh muscle weakness, following an upper motor neuron injury or disease. The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the usability of the Novus system among these patients and to gain subjects' feedback regarding the device when used on a daily basis.The secondary objective is to obtain information about the performance of the system as a gait assistive device and to evaluate the subject's Quality of Life while using the system.
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is the major cause of disability and death among the younger population. In the Pediatric population Head trauma may be responsible for primary and secondary brain damage. Primary brain injury results from a direct mechanical damage at the time of injury, whereas secondary injury is caused by further cellular damage that develops hours or days post injury. Intracranial Injury in Infants (III) may be hard to diagnose in the abcence of neurological deficit or early deterioration. On the other hand, symptoms such as vomiting and restlessness may be present even in the case of minor head injury, and unnesessary scaning (CT) may be performed in many centers just because clinical judgment is problematic in this particular age. Some intracranial injuries may be imminent, such as evolving Epidural hematoma (EDH) in infants, and early diagnosis may be lifesaving and leading to excellent outcome. In adults, GCS has been accepted as the most usuful tool for emergency evaluation of head injured patients. In children, several scores were introduced, including the Children's Coma Score (CCS), however they have been found problematic to use in the very young population, since accurate evaluation of communication in CCS is hard, and there is insufficient relevant parameters uncorporated into the score that may have significant importance in this particular age group. In TINS (Trauma Infant Neurological Score) we characterized the clinical parameters and the mechanism of trauma in a simplified method. As previously published, this score has been used by us and by other groups, in retrospective studies. Still, in the lack of prospective studies using TINS, there are no optimal guidelines to perform computed tomography (CT) in this unique population, and TINS has not prospectively been challenged as a predictor tool for outcome. In this prospective study we will approach these issues.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate safety, tolerability and performance of the CyclaPlex implant, a button and suture type implant device and instruments for the correction of the first inter metatarsal angle in subjects suffering from Hallux Valgus deformity.
The main goal of this study is to employ a novel proteomic approach to identify predictive tumor biomarkers that will increase the efficacy of insulin-like growth factor (IGF1R) targeted therapy in epithelial ovarian cancer. It is expected that these predictive biomarkers will be applied to increase the response rate in selected groups of patients.
The purpose of this study is to examine the efficacy of mid-infrared spectroscopy together with Attenuated Total Reflection (ATR), for the detection of gynecological malignancies in real time during surgery.

The aim of the study is to compare orbital and central nervous system (CNS) imaging with Computed Tomography (CT) scan to that of Fast Magnetic Resonance Imaging (Fast MRI) in children with mild, moderate or severe orbital cellulitis with medical indications for imaging.
