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 primary objective of this post market clinical follow-up (PMCF) investigation is to confirm the safety and performance of Avance®Solo and Avance®Solo Adapt NPWT Systems in low to moderate exuding chronic wounds when used in accordance with the Instructions for Use, for up to 28 days.
Heads of all psychosomatic, psychiatric and psychological consultation and liaison (C&L) services in acute care hospitals across all participating countries will be contacted and asked to participate in this international cross-sectional online survey. The survey consists of questions about care structures and their utilisation that psychosomatic, psychiatric and psychological C&L services have established in acute hospitals in the context of the COVID 19 pandemic.
Two methods for detecting outcomes after knee prosthetic surgery are compared: the traditional one using paper questionnaires administered in the outpatient setting (Oxford Knee Score) VS detection using digital questionnaires created on Google Forms and sent to the patient's smartphone on which the compilation takes place in the extra area outpatient.
The main purpose of this study is to measure how well abemaciclib works in participants with early breast cancer who are taking hormone therapy after surgery. Participants must have breast cancer that is hormone receptor positive (HR+) and human epidermal receptor 2 positive (HER2+). Your participation could last up to 10 years depending on how you and your tumor respond.
This study aims to evaluate whether IMA sparing may represent an advantage in terms of reduced incidence and severity of sexual dysfunctions after colorectal resections for diverticular disease (DD).
A recent position paper calls for effective home-based exercise program for patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD) and claudication to be implemented in real-world care. This randomized-controlled trial aims to test the effects on mobility, hemodynamics and cardiovascular outcomes of a structured home-based exercise program (SHB) compared to walking advice (WA) recommendation intended as usual care, in PAD patients. Male and females PAD patients at Leriche-Fontaine's stage II and aged more than 60 years old will be enrolled. Patients will be randomized in SHB or WA groups. Patients of SHB group will receive a prescription of a home-based walking program during serial testing sessions at the hospital. The program will include two 10-minute sessions/day (6 days/week) of intermittent walking (1-minute work and 1-minute rest while seated) at a prescribed speed converted into a walking cadence and followed at home using a metronome. Two follow-up visits (at weeks 8 and 16) will be performed to evaluate patient adherence and to update the exercise program by increasing the walking speed. Patients randomized in WA group will receive the advice to walk as suggested by the guidelines. In particular, patients will be recommended to gather almost 30 minutes of walking at least 3 times per week; when they will face claudication pain, they will be allowed to rest and restart walking as soon as possible. Outcome measures will be performed at the entry prior to randomization, at the end of exercise programs (6-month) and after 12-month follow up. Primary outcomes will be the pain-free walking distance and the 6-minute walking distance collected during the 6-minute walking test Secondary outcomes will include ankle-brachial index, quality of life, lower limb strength and long-term clinical outcomes including revascularization and mortality.
This study is designed to compare the resolution of inflammation of naturally-occurring peri-implant mucositis (PM) at tissue-level (TL) and bone-level (BL) implants after non-surgical mechanical debridement.
Food allergy derives from a dysregulation of oral tolerance mechanisms. Studies suggest a crucial role for gut microbiota in oral tolerance development. An altered composition of gut microbiota results in an unbalanced local and systemic immune response to food allergens. There are qualitative and quantitative differences in gut microbiota composition in children with food allergy. Preliminary results of MATFA study demonstrated gut microbiota in allergic children.These findings support the pivotal role of the gut microbiota in the pathogenesis of allergic diseases and may open new strategies in the development of innovative preventive and therapeutic approaches.
The purpose of this study is to prospectively collect clinical data evaluating the ongoing safety and performance during routine-use standard cardiac arrhythmia mapping and/or ablation procedures while using commercial Biosense Webster Inc. (BWI) medical devices. Data generated from the study will be used to confirm safety and performance of BWI medical devices in the marketed phase and to expand the body of evidence on the use of these devices and techniques in treatment of cardiac arrhythmias.
This study is to evaluate of the accuracy of biomarkers (i.e. circulating endothelial and immune activation markers) that indicate progression to severe disease in patients with suspected COVID-19 in the Emergency Department. It is a prospective observational study of patients presenting to emergency departments with a clinical suspicion of COVID19. All participants will have plasma samples collected for biomarker analysis, and will be tested for SARS-CoV-2 infection with a nasopharyngeal swab. Participants will be managed according to the best local practices.
