There are about 627 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Saudi Arabia. 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.
To determine the effect of different cleaning methods and devices in reducing halitosis during active orthodontic treatment.
Influence of virtual reality games(Wii Fit) on knee proprioception after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) will be measured in 30 postoperative patients. The age of participants will be ranged from 20 to 30 years old. Subjects will be randomly assigned to Group A is the study group and Group B is the control group.
In the field of cochlear implant research, there are only few data on long-term observational studies available to gain knowledge on clinical effectiveness. Longitudinal comparisons of data collected in different clinics is challenging due to the heterogeneity in measures and procedure. This Registry represents a non-interventional systematic collection of clinical data in which prospective data from children and adults are collected as anonymized data sets, derived from original clinical records on appropriately informed subjects. Each subject will be treated as per clinical routine. The Registry will be implemented through a secure, cloud-based, platform that enables collection of anonymized data at consistent time intervals, thus enabling the comparison of repeated measures over time.
Introduction: Local anesthetic failure is an unavoidable aspect of dental practice. A number of factors contribute to this, which may be related to either the patient or the operator. Patient-dependent factors may be anatomical, pathological or psychological1-3. Work is still going on by dental clinicians and researchers in order to find an optimal local anesthetic agent which it has a high potency and rapid onset of action.4-6. However, pain free injection also play a role in improving the patient perceptions toward the dentist and dental treatments and encouraging patients to attend a regular checkup5-8. Failure of the local anaesthetic injections using Inferior Alveolar Nerve Block (IANB) for lower teeth in asymptomatic and symptomatic patients requires additional buck-up strategies to achieve pain free dental treatment. Otherwise, the patient complains of severe pain and hindering the clinician to proceed to the dental treatment. Mechanism of action for intraseptal injection The route of diffusion and distribution of the anaesthetic solution in the intraseptal technique is most likely through the medullary bone (Fig. 1). It offers anaesthesia to the bone, delicate/soft tissues, root structure in the region of infusion. It is best when both pain control and haemostasis are wanted for delicate /soft tissue and bony periodontal treatment.

Advantages of intraseptal injection In contrast to IANB and local infiltration, the intraseptal technique prevents the anaesthesia of tissues such as lips and tongue hence, decreases the chances of cheek or lip biting (self-trauma). It necessitates minimum or least dosage of local anaesthetic and minimizes bleeding during the surgical procedure. This technique being less traumatic, has immediate or instantaneous (<30-sec) onset of action and comparatively less number of postsurgical complications14. Intravascular injection is extremely unlikely to occur15compared to IANB or infiltration. Assertions that intraseptal anaesthesia is immediate are properly consistent with previous clinical results. Their findings reported that the onset of action for anaesthesia was within one minute after injection. So the onset time can be considered rapid if not immediate. Disadvantages of intraseptal Injection Clinical experience and multiple tissue punctures may be necessary to perform this technique. During the anaesthetic procedure, the anaesthetic solution may leak in to the oral cavity resulting discomfort and an unpleasant or bitter taste. The effective period anaesthesia for pulpal and soft-tissues is very limited20 hence multiple repeats may be required for longer surgical procedures. The aim of this prospective clinical study is to determine the anesthetic efficacy of the supplemental intraseptal technique in mandibular teeth diagnosed with extraction when the conventional inferior alveolar
A multicenter, international prospectively collected patient cohort undergoing high-risk spinal cord level surgery or spinal osteotomy procedures will be enrolled to establish the incidence of intraoperative alerts in high-risk spinal cord cases, and explore factors associated with mitigating injury. Baseline, intraoperative, and postoperative characteristics, including demographics, radiological features, lower extremity motor score (LEMS), procedure, anesthetic agents used, and baseline blood pressure will be recorded for either adult patients or pediatric patients.
The aim of this retrospective study was to assess the different outcomes of early (performed on the patient's first admission for acute cholecystitis) and delayed cholecystectomy (done on a second admission) at King Abdulaziz University Hospital in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.
Diabetes mellitus (DM) increases stiffness and thickness of foot structures. This may alter the foot's biomechanics and increase plantar pressure distribution, mainly on the forefoot region. Presence of plantar heel pain (PHP) also may alter the foot's rollover mechanism and increase plantar loading in the forefoot as a protective mechanism of pain. The risk of diabetic ulcer formation increases with these restricted ankle range of motion (ROM) and increased foot plantar pressure that may present in DM patient with PHP. The association that has been established previously between limited ankle ROM and PHP leads to a reasonable utilization of joint and soft tissue mobilization in treating diabetic patients with PHP. The aim of this study is to investigate the immediate and short-term effect of a single session of ankle and foot joint mobilization (JM) versus Myofascial release (MFR) on pain intensity, ankle ROM, foot plantar pressure, dynamic and static balance, and functional level of diabetic patients with PHP. The findings of this study will help to understand the effect of these two interventions on diabetic patients with PHP in term of the previously mentioned parameters. This may guide the physiotherapists to choose the best available technique to treat DM patients with PHP, and that may help to reduce the risk of DM foot complications.
Myofascial pain syndrome thought to be the main cause of neck pain and shoulder muscle tenderness in the working population is characterized by myofascial trigger points (MTrPs). This study aimed to examine the immediate and short-term effect of the combination of two therapeutic techniques for improving neck pain and muscle tenderness in patients with upper trapezius Myofascial Trigger points.
The clinical trial will compare pain perception during dental local anesthesia injections with and without using soft tissue vibration device prior to injection. The primary goal is to test the effectiveness of such devices in pain/discomfort reduction during intraoral local anesthesia injections in various techniques (infiltration and block anesthesia).
