There are about 5161 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Norway. 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.
This study is being carried out to see if quetiapine fumarate (Seroquel) is effective in treating bipolar depression during an 8-week acute phase compared with placebo and lithium, followed by continuation treatment for 26 up to 52 with quetiapine fumarate (Seroquel) compared to placebo.
This study is being carried out to study the efficacy and safety of treatment with melagatran injection followed by ximelagatran tablets in preventing blood clots, compared with enoxaparin for a period of 5-6 weeks. A separate visit, independent from the study will be done approximately 6 months after the surgery.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate tolerability of long-term treatment with ximelagatran compared to standard treatment with warfarin.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether bazedoxifene acetate is safe and effective in the treatment of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women.
The purpose of this study is to compare the effect of low flux hemodialysis with online hemodiafiltration on all cause mortality and a combination of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in chronic hemodialysis patients.
The purpose of this clinical trial is to study the efficacy and safety of naltrexone implants as a relapse prevention for opiate addicted inmates about to be released from prison. The experimental group is compared with a control group that commences methadone maintenance treatment before release. The hypothesises are that quality of life and criminal behaviour improve significantly in both groups compared to the month before incarceration. The experimental group is going to have significant less days with opioid use compared to the MMT group. We hypothesize furthermore that the implants can prevent death related to opiate overdose up to 6 months after commenced treatment.
Airway control and ventilation is vital during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) in cardiac arrest. Endotracheal intubation is the gold standard for airway control, but several studies have shown high rates of unrecognized placements of the tube in the esophagus instead of in the airway out-of-hospital. This is lethal. There are no failproof technique for recognising such mistakes clinically in the cardiac arrest situation. Changes on the air volume in the lungs with ventilation changes the impedance (resistance to alternating current) through the thorax. This impedance is already measured routinely by the defibrillators used during CPR. We propose that we can measure ventilation volumes and also discover failed intubations by monitoring this impedance during CPR with the possibility of giving feedback on both to the rescuers.
The pupose of the study is a prospective evaluation of external and internal factors/causes of importance for the trauma and final outcome experienced by persons inside motor vehicles in serious car accidents. We hypothesise that there is an association between the use and function of safety features and the results for the patient and an association between material damage and the severity of injury.
The purpose of this study is to compare MRI enteroclysis with MRI of the small bowel with a per oral 6%mannitol solution.Our hypothesis is that the peroral technique preform the same way as MRI Enteroclysis.
The purpose of this study is to document that taking part in this program is beneficial for the child, its parents and local professionals. The study hypothesis are: Intensive training will speed up the childs motor, cognitive and social development. Intensive habilitation will increase the childs family's empowerment Children having participated in this intensive habilitation will speed up their process of development further than children in the control group The cooperation between first and second line health service is strengthened by participation in the intensive habilitation program The professionals in the first line(community)in Norway that participates in this program increases their empowerment and motivation
