NCT ID: NCT03157297 Completed - Clinical trials for Atrioventricular Conduction Block

Micra Atrial Tracking Using a Ventricular Accelerometer Study

MARVEL
Start date: July 10, 2017
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to characterize performance of the MARVEL algorithm downloaded into the MicraTM TPS to provide atrial synchronous ventricular pacing in subjects with AV block. A sub-study will be conducted within the Marvel study, the purpose of this study is to characterize the MARVEL algorithm in patients who were enrolled in the MARVEL study, and to collect and compare the accelerometer signals and AV synchrony at a second point in time.

NCT ID: NCT03143426 Completed - Clinical trials for Conversion Laparoscopic to Open Cholecystectomy

Does 3D Visualisation Improve Performance of Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy by Junior Surgeons?

Start date: April 1, 2017
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) is currently the most commonly performed major abdominal surgery in Western countries. Ever since the introduction of laparoscopic surgery in the late 1980s, cholecystectomies are now routinely performed laparoscopically; concomitantly the introduction and refinement of other laparoscopic abdominal surgeries have rapidly progressed due to the early experience and safety profile seen in LC. The introduction of stereoscopes which allow for 3D visual feedback has been postulated to overcome setbacks encountered in conventional 2-dimensional (2D) laparoscopic surgery. Since its introduction in the mid-2000s, 3D visualisation has been proven to be advantageous over 2D visualisation, especially so within the context of training junior surgeons in controlled, experimental settings. The body of evidence on benefits of 3D visualisation within the clinical setting, i.e. when applied on live patients in operating theatres, remains small and weak. The previous publications however did not extrapolate any potential benefits on patients' well-being in correlation to their reported benefits and neither did they explore any potential benefits in reducing operative complications. We decided to embark on a study to investigate any peri-operative advantage conferred on junior surgeons in performing LC using 3D visualisation as the majority of LCs in Sibu Hospital are carried out by junior surgeons.

NCT ID: NCT03139617 Completed - Clinical trials for Regional Anaesthesia

Comparison Between Ultrasound Guided Femoral 3 in 1 Block Versus Blind Fascia Iliaca Block Before Spinal Anaesthesia

IKH
Start date: June 2015
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of ultrasound guided femoral 3 in 1 block versus the blind technique single shot fascia iliaca compartment block as an analgesia method in patients prior positioning for spinal anaesthesia in femur fracture surgery. A total of 60 patients were enrolled and divided equally into 2 groups.

NCT ID: NCT03137290 Completed - Clinical trials for Neuromuscular Blockade

Comparing Reversal With Neostigmine and Sugammadex in Paediatric

JS
Start date: December 1, 2014
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

A reversal agent is commonly given to improve neuromuscular function after intra-operative administration of non-depolarizing neuromuscular blocking agents. The administration of conventional reversal agent neostigmine is associated with many undesirable side effects. For almost a decade, a new novel drug sugammadex has been used to specifically antagonize the effect of aminosteroidal neuromuscular blocking agents. A total of 80 paediatric patients planned for general anaesthesia were divided into two groups and were given either neostigmine+atropine, or sugammadex for reversal once the operation had completed.

NCT ID: NCT03136484 Completed - Clinical trials for Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2

Efficacy and Safety of Semaglutide Versus Canagliflozin as add-on to Metformin in Subjects With Type 2 Diabetes

SUSTAIN 8
Start date: March 15, 2017
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

This trial is conducted in Africa, Asia, Europe, North and South America. The aim of the trial is to compare the effect of once-weekly (OW) dosing of subcutaneous semaglutide (1.0 mg) versus once-daily dosing of oral canagliflozin (300 mg) on glycaemic control in subjects with type 2 diabetes (T2D) on a background treatment of metformin

NCT ID: NCT03130790 Completed - Gastric Cancer Clinical Trials

Varlitinib in Combination With mFOLFOX6 for Advanced or Metastatic Gastric Cancer (First Line)

Start date: August 31, 2017
Phase: Phase 2/Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

This protocol for Varlitinib is developed for the treatment of Gastric Cancer. Varlitinib (also known as ASLAN001) is a small-molecule, adenosine triphosphate competitive inhibitor of the tyrosine kinases - epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), human epidermal growth factor receptor (HER)2, and HER4. Varlitinib may be beneficial to subjects with cancer by simultaneous inhibition of these receptors. The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of Varlitinib in combination with mFOLFOX6 for the treatment of Gastric Cancer. Treatment groups are Varlitinib+mFOLFOX6 and Placebo+mFOLFOX6.

NCT ID: NCT03130413 Completed - General Anaesthesia Clinical Trials

Comparing Between Air-Q Intubating Laryngeal Airway and Ambu® AuraGain™

Nira
Start date: November 2016
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The aim of this randomized study is conducted is to evaluate the performance and safety of air-Q intubating laryngeal airway as primary airway device in various short surgical procedure in children compared to Ambu® AuraGain™ Laryngeal Mask. Current Supraglottic airway devices (SADs) available in are classic LMA (cLMA), proseal LMA (pLMA), supreme LMA (sLMA) and the newer is Ambu® AuraGain™laryngeal mask. As variety of newer SADs for children have emerged since their introduction in clinical practice, hope the outcomes of this study it help advancing our knowledge and acumen in selecting appropriate devices for paediatric population.

NCT ID: NCT03105128 Completed - Crohn's Disease Clinical Trials

A Study of the Efficacy and Safety of Risankizumab in Participants With Moderately to Severely Active Crohn's Disease

Start date: May 10, 2017
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of risankizumab versus placebo during induction therapy in participants with moderately to severely active Crohn's disease (CD).

NCT ID: NCT03104413 Completed - Crohn's Disease Clinical Trials

A Study to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of Risankizumab in Participants With Moderately to Severely Active Crohn's Disease Who Failed Prior Biologic Treatment

Start date: December 18, 2017
Phase: Phase 3

NCT ID: NCT03101163 Completed - Clinical trials for Articular Cartilage Disorder of Knee

Efficacy and Safety Study of Intra-Articular Injections of Autologous Peripheral Blood Stem Cells Following Subchondral Drilling Surgery for the Treatment of Articular Cartilage Injury in the Knee

Start date: December 2015
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This is a 24-month, multicenter, randomized, open-label, standard treatment-controlled, parallel-group, Phase 2 study for adults with large or complicated knee articular cartilage lesions and are candidates for knee joint cartilage repair surgery. The safety and efficacy of intra-articular injections of peripheral blood stem cells (PBSCs) together with hyaluronic acid (HA) after subchondral drilling surgery will be evaluated to determine whether PBSC therapy can improve functional outcome and reduce pain of the knee joint better than a standard treatment (HA injections and physiotherapy regimen).
