There are about 1320 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.
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.
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
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.
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.
To compare the combination of Ribociclib plus goserelin acetate with hormonal therapy versus combination chemotherapy in premenopausal or perimenopausal patients with advanced or metastatic breast cancer
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).
The Healing effects of Honey and Hydrogel Products on the Diabetic Foot. Abstract: Diabetes mellitus epidemiology is increasing dramatically affecting high numbers of the world's population, one of the highest risk consequences is diabetic foot and which might lead to leg amputation causing a permanent disability for the patient. Several studies had been conducted on the options available to treat diabetic foot ulcer, Honey products and Hydrogel stands out as an effective topical treatment for the foot ulceration. This study discusses the effectivity rate of these products and compares it with the classical methods followed to treat DF using topical and systematic antibiotics. Hence; our research raises the following questions: 1. What is the effect of Honey and Hydrogel on the foot anatomy and physiology of DF patients? 2. Could the investigators introduce a new protocol to treat DF using Honey and Hydrogel products? Aiming to achieve the following objects: 1. To provide a new protocol to improve the anatomy and physiology of DF. 2. To compare the efficacy of combined Hydrogel and Honey products on the diabetic foot ulcer. Reaching there the investigators are expecting to: 1. To compare the healing time between the patients treated with hydrogel/honey products and the control treatment patients. 2. To compare Lab parameters improvements between the patients treated with hydrogel/honey products and the control treatment patients. 3. To compare neurological improvements between the patients treated with hydrogel/honey products and the control treatment patients. 4. To compare the anatomical improvements between the patients treated with hydrogel/honey products and the control treatment patients. In order to provide a clear estimation for the safety and effectivity profile for each treatment method. Based on that the investigators are conducting using single blinded randomized clinical trial Suggesting the following Hypothesis: Treatment using topical MediHoney gel and/or Hydrogel together separately in association with empiric antibiotic regimens have a higher success rate comparing with treatment using topical and empiric antibiotic. A total of 120 DM patients from Outpatients DM type 2 will be included in this study, following up at diabetic foot center Al-Qaseem Saudi Arabia. Patients will be divided into 4 groups: 1. st group will be treated with topical Medihoney product and empiric antibiotic. 2. nd group will be treated with topical Hydrogel (purloin) gel and empiric antibiotic. 3. rd group will be treated with a combination of Medihoney gel and Hydrogel (purloin) gel and empiric antibiotic. The 4th group will be treated with a combination of systematic and topical fucidin 1% antibiotic this group will be a controlled group. Based on the expected results the investigators are estimating that this study will raise the awareness of both health care personnel and the diabetic patients about this condition. It is expected to provide a clear efficacy estimation for each treatment method followed, facilitating the choice of treatment for physicians.
The purpose of the study is to register the occurrence of cardiovascular disease among type 2 diabetes patients across ten countries across the world. Participants will be asked to give information about their health. Participants will continue their normal way of life and will not get any medication other than prescribed to them by their doctor. Participants' participation will be one day/one visit at their doctor. The study will last for about 6 months in total.
