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.
Study 0019 (NCT00124020) compares the safety and effectiveness of an investigational drug, telavancin, with vancomycin for the treatment of hospital-acquired pneumonia.
This trial is conducted in Asia, Europe, Middle East, and North America. The primary objective of the trial is to evaluate the safety of Recombinant Activated Factor VII in patients with brain contusions. The secondary objective of the trial is to evaluate the preliminary efficacy of Recombinant Activated Factor VII in preventing early haemorrhagic progression in contusive brain injury.
This is a phase III study of BMS-354825 in subjects with chronic myelogenous leukemia in accelerated phase, or in myeloid or lymphoid blast phase or with Philadelphia chromosome positive (Ph+) acute lymphoblastic leukemia who are resistant or intolerant to imatinib mesylate (Gleevec).
This is a phase III study of BMS-354825 in subjects with chronic phase Philadelphia chromosome or BCR-ABL positive chronic myelogenous leukemia, who are resistant or intolerant to imatinib mesylate (Gleevec).
In the last years urinary tract infections (UTI) and pyelonephritis have been the most common reason for readmission to our hospital after birth. UTI is know to be one of the leading causes of postpartum fever affecting about 3%-8% of all postpartum women. The investigators hypothesize that collecting urine cultures pre- and postnatally may help identify women at risk for developing UTI, while treating women with positive cultures could decrease the rehospitalization rate due to postpartum fever. Collecting data during delivery may help identify women at risk for this complication.
Preemptive analgesia is defined as “analgesic intervention provided before surgery to prevent or reduce subsequent pain”. By preventing central sensitization using nociceptive blockers by regional analgesia we may able to produce a painless postsurgical state. The use of preemptive analgesia was reported in various surgical procedures, such as in limb surgeries, laparoscopic procedures, mastectomy and vaginal hysterectomy. Regarding abdominal hysterectomy there are only few reports, however both, malignancies and benign cases were included and conflicting results were obtained regarding the value of preemptive analgesia. Since hysterectomy is the most frequent major surgical procedure performed in gynecology, and it is estimated that by age 64 years, 40 % of women will have had a hysterectomy, it would be of great value to optimize pain treatment in these patients. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effectiveness of preemptive analgesia in women who undergo a transabdominal hysterectomy for benign uterine abnormalities. Hypothesis: Lidocaine (5%) injection to the scar area before incision is effective in pain reduction among women who undergo a transabdominal hysterectomy for benign uterine abnormalities .
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of the NeuroFlo™ catheter for use in patients with ischemic stroke. The NeuroFlo device is intended to increase blood flow to the brain and potentially reduce the damage caused by stroke.
The purpose of this study is to examine whether spinal anesthesia affects the chances of successful external cephalic version (ECV) of a breech presenting fetus. Two study groups will be included; one will receive spinal anesthesia, the other will not. The non-spinal group will be permitted to cross over if ECV procedure is painful. The main outcome is success of ECV.
Objective of the present study is to compare endovascular repair versus surveillance and, eventually delay treatment in patients with small abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA), with respect to patient survival, AAA rupture and AAA related death risks.
The purpose of this study is to compare long-term safety and tolerability of stavudine (d4T) extended release (ER) versus conventional (immediate release [IR]) formulations, each in combination with lamivudine (3TC) and efavirenz (EFV) in subjects who have completed Bristol-Myers Squibb (BMS) studies AI455-096 and AI455-099.
