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 intent of this protocol is to provide continued access to vamorolone for subjects in the United States who Have Completed the VBP15-LTE, VBP15- 004, or VBP15-006 protocols (and are thereby ineligible to enroll in another trial of vamorolone therapy), during the time a new drug application for vamorolone is under preparation and review.
The study purpose is to collect images and user feedback from the Next Generation Venue Ultrasound system, components, and accessories under clinical conditions, as required for device development and optimization.
Phase 3 efficacy and safety study to evaluate acoramidis (AG10) HCl 800 mg administered orally twice a day compared to placebo in subjects with symptomatic Transthyretin Amyloid Cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM).
This research aims to allow deployment & optimization of SAMPL plain wave algorithm so as to make required advancement towards a light-weight portable US platform or wireless probe - thus elevating clinician's care level and patient treatment by allowing more scan availability and flexibility.
This study will evaluate the effects of a computerized training program coupled with cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) for OCD.
Phantom Limb Pain ( PLP) is pain that is perceived and referred to a region of the body that is no longer present. in most patients, severity and frequency of phantom pain attacks gradually decrease over several weeks to 2 years following amputation, however in 5-10% significant pain remains a serious problem. It has been hypothesized, that deprivation of various inputs from the limbs to the brain cause an abnormal neuro-signature to be produced generating cortical maladaptive neuroplasticity and reorganization. Areas representing the amputated body part are taken over by neighboring representational zones in both the somatosensory and motor cortex generating pain in absence of stimuli. A seminal paper published by Lotze et al "Phantom movements and pain: a functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) study in upper limb amputees. - participants had to pucker their lips at a metronome-paced speed while functional magnetic resonance images were taken. Only in amputees with phantom-limb pain did a shift of the mouth representation into the hand representation occur; those without pain and the healthy control do not display a similar shift. Scarce reports have been made on a similar phenomenon- micturition induced lower limb phantom pain. We speculate that a similar maladaptive central nerve system (CNS) plasticity in which this genital representation would invade cortical areas with somatotopic affiliation to the lower extremity could be implicated in the pathophysiology of this phenomenon.
Pain is a subjective experience that differs in intensity from one person to another. Appropriate medical care relies on an accurate assessment of the patients' condition. However, when it comes to subjective assessment, accurate assessment is a challenge. The most common tools used to estimate pain intensity depend on patient pain reports on a numerical pain scale (NPS) or a similar scales. Although these tools are widely used, there is a tendency to ignore the fact that the reliability and accuracy of pain reports are strongly influenced not only by the measuring instrument, but also by the person who uses it. A method has recently been developed to assess the accuracy of pain reports, and in a series of studies it has been found that the more accurate a person is in pain reports in response to stimulation,the smaller his placebo effect is .The aim of the study is to investigate whether assessing the accuracy of a person's pain reports can predict who will experience intensified post-operative pain and post-operative analgesic medications intake.The study will include 40 patients undergoing elective head & neck surgery. The study will be conducted prospectively and will include one pre-operative meeting to assess the accuracy of pain reports using the Focused Analgesia Selection Test (FAST). Patients will also complete pain-related psychological questionnaires during the session. In addition, post-operative pain measurements (NPS), and the use of pain relieving drugs (SOS) will be taken until release.
The aim of this study is to compare the effectiveness of Heated Humidified High Flow Nasal Cannula (HHHFNC) versus Nasal Intermittent Positive Pressure Ventilation (NIPPV) in preventing intubation when used as primary respiratory support for Respiratory Distress Syndrome (RDS) or post extubation in preterm infants
A randomized control trial comparing bolus gavage feeds to continuous feed among premature infants supported by non-invasive respiratory support
Ovarian torsion is a relatively common gynecological emergency, usually presenting as acute lower abdominal pain. Due to patient's presentation diversity, the diagnosis is clinical and requires integration of different factors and the exclusion of other non-gynecological pathologies. Surgery is the definitive treatment and may still be effective after several hours of symptoms. Delay in treatment can impact fertility adversely. The aim of this study is to evaluate the change in anti mullarian hormone before and after laparoscopic de-torsion of the ovary in our medical center compared to controls.
