To investigate a possible benefit of Orthokeratology contact lenses to improve uncorrected visual acuity of keratoconus patients
When oligohydramnion - decreased amniotic fluid, is diagnosed at term pregnancies, the common practice is to induce labor. Whenever the cervix is not ripened, there are several methods to ripen the cervix, two of which are: mechanical, using a double balloon catheter and pharmacological, with prostaglandins. The aim of the study is to compare those two methods of cervical ripening for patients with significant oligohydramnion at term. The study will be a prospective randomised trial.
The study hypothesis is that a modified smart bite block system can deliver up to 10 liters/minute of supplemental oxygen orally with the CO2 monitoring performance substantially equivalent to the currently marketed smart bite block that delivers oxygen up to 5 liters/minute
To test whether tight glucose control is associated with better clinical outcome compared to less-tight control, among diabetic patients hospitalized in internal medicine wards.
Sucking and sucrose have been shown to reduce pain during venous puncture in neonates. Our study is designed to see if sucking and sucrose relieve pain during venous puncture in infants age 3-12 months.
Most patients undergoing cataract surgery suffer from corneal edema after the surgery. Brimonidine drops are a well known and safe Anti-glaucoma medication. the investigators have made several clinical observations that patients receiving Brimonidine drops had a faster resolution of their corneal edema even if they had normal intra-ocular pressure. The investigators believe that administering topical Brimonidine to patients with significant post operative corneal edema will hasten the resolution of their corneal edema.
The aim of the study is to assess the correlation between airflow limitation, perception of dyspnea and functional capacity with anatomic changes in pulmonary structure as seen on High Resolution CT in COPD patients.
Observation of fluid behavior over a perforated eardrum. A comparison of the behavior of the gas in normal vs. different kinds of otitis media ears.
terlipressin is given to refractory septic shock patients who do not respond to noradrenalin in Israel and Europe. It is given by bolus injection. we attempt to investigate weather it is better to give it by continuous drip and avoid abrupt changes in BP and heart function
Patients suffering from Fibromyalgia will be examined for the presence of memory and/or cognitive impairment using specific psychological tests. Their results will be compared to those with active RA associated with pain and with a normal control group.
