There are about 21062 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Italy. 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 explore changes in patients' hemodynamic parameters during the Head-Up Tilt Test ("HUTT") and their timing with respect to onset of the Closed Loop Stimulation (CLS) pacing. This study aims to add knowledge to better understand the mechanisms underlying recurrent syncopal events and optimal pacing programming.
The study is aimed to assess the soothing effect of a food supplement composed of Coriander Seed Oil (CSO) in terms of reducing skin redness and skin discomfort (stinging feeling) on sensitive and reactive skin.
The aim of the study is to evaluate efficacy and safety of "Smart Coaxial drain" (Redax TM, Poggio Rusco, Mantova, Italia) in terms of total amount of effusion drained, incidence of residual effusion at Chest X-Ray and patient's comfort in Uniportal- and Biportal-VATS upper lobectomies. In particular, to evaluate in Uniportal-VATS upper lobectomies the efficacy and safety of smart coaxial drains compared with standard silicone chest tubes.
Breath analysis examining specific patterns of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) has been demonstrated to be able to discriminate lung cancer (LC) patients from healthy controls (HC). However, the existing technology uses complex, expensive, and low throughput analytical platforms to give an offline response, thus preventing its applicability for mass screening. The reliability of a new portable device to enable rapid, on-site LC diagnosis is tested.
Background: endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) is a minimally invasive procedure for diagnosing and staging mediastinal lymph node lesions in lung cancer. Adequate sedation is crucial for patient comfort and diagnostic accuracy. Different sedation modalities, including moderate sedation/conscious sedation, deep sedation, and general anesthesia, are utilized. This study aims to evaluate patient comfort and satisfaction levels of healthcare providers (bronchoscopists and anesthesiologists) when administering remifentanil through Target Controlled Infusion (TCI) for conscious sedation during EBUS-TBNA. A prospective randomized study design compares this approach to the standard sedation protocol involving midazolam, fentanyl, and/or propofol. Methods: this study will enroll 30 eligible patients randomly divided into two groups. Group 1, "REMIFENTANIL TCI", underwent EBUS-TBNA under conscious sedation with remifentanil TCI infusion targeting a concentration of 3-6 ng/ml. Group 2, "STANDARD", received conscious sedation with a combination of midazolam, fentanyl, and/or propofol administered in boluses based on clinical requirements. Complications, safety, and satisfaction levels of the operator, anesthesiologist, and patients will be evaluated.
The study is aimed to assess the efficacy of two dietary supplements composed of berry extracts in reducing skin aging signs and improving skin complexion.
In the last 5 years, the available literature evidence has indicated that, in terms of clinical efficacy, telerehabilitation can give comparable results compared to face-to-face rehabilitation. Studies of post-stroke patients have revealed some benefits of telerehabilitation, such as the ability for patients to self-record pain, mood and activity. Telerehabilitation has comparable efficacy to face-to-face rehabilitation for the recovery of some abilities, such as motor function, Activities of Daily Living (ADL), and independence; it is less effective, however, for the recovery of balance control. Published reviews concerning, in particular, neurological/neurodegenerative diseases show that telerehabilitation systems are effective in maintaining and/or improving some motor aspects, such as balance and gait, and non-motor aspects, such as mood and quality of life; they also increase patient satisfaction, so in the long term they appear to be beneficial, convenient and satisfying for patients and operators. ARC Intellicare is a device undergoing certification as a Class I Medical Device (DM), already clinically tested during two uncontrolled clinical feasibility studies: ARCANGEL study (post-stroke, ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT03787433) and RICOMINCIARE study (post-COVID19 and Parkinson's disease, ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT05074771).
The aim of the present pilot randomized controlled trial is to compare the effects of the following: 1)-panettone enriched with arabinoxylans (p-rich), 2)-panettone not enriched (p-standard) on blood glucose and insulin values, and appetite scores in 10 healthy volunteers.
Sodium DNA has several properties that may be beneficial in the management of bacterial biofilm in periodontitis. The aim of this RCT study is to clinically evaluate the antimicrobial and oral biofilm control properties of two mouthwashes containing Chlorhexidine 0.12% + Sodium DNA and Chlorhexidine 0.20% at two weeks, compared with a placebo, on patients with stage III or IV periodontitis.
The study is aimed to assess the efficacy of two dietary supplements composed of a Wheat Polar Lipid Complex (WPLC) in oil or powder form in reducing hair loss and improving hair aspect.
