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.
A retrospective study investigating the early outcome of emergency CABG post MI in patients who were operated at Saud Al Babtain Cardiac Center.
Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is a common orthopedic procedure associated with severe postoperative pain which may limit patient rehabilitation and hospital discharge. Although various analgesic techniques have been proposed, there is currently no consensus on the optimal protocol to improve functional outcomes following TKA. The ideal analgesic regimen post TKA should enable adequate pain control, early mobilization and physical therapy, shorten hospital stay, reduce the risk of postoperative complications and improve patient satisfaction. Our hypothesis is iPACK (Interspace between the Popliteal Artery and the Capsule of the posterior Knee) peripheral nerves anesthetic block is superior to Periarticular local Infiltration Analgesia (LIA)which is commonly given by the surgeons during the TKA in terms of pain relief and early mobilization.
Adansonia digitata L. (AD) also known as Baobab is a huge tree that grows in many countries in sub-Saharan Africa. Many studies talking about AD biological activity including hypolipidemic, antioxidant and antimicrobials in animal's but not in human, This study will be undertaken to examine the effect of AD juice consumption against lipid profiles in traditional users and blood samples will be collected form participant's for investigated of lipid profiles pre and post AD juice drinking and the results will be compared.
Comparison between phacoemulsification with endoscopic cyclophotocoagulation versus phacoemulsification alone in patients with either primary angle closure or primary angle closure glaucoma presenting with cataract or a clear lens.
Miswak has been recommended by world health organization for oral hygiene because of its availability, beneficial effect and affordability. The popularity of Miswak in Arab countries has meant that there have been several studies that have confirmed the ability of miswak to provide effective mechanical and chemical cleansing when used as an adjunct to other oral hygiene aids. Fluoridated tooth paste and manual tooth brushes have been the standard of clinical preventive dental care for over 50 years.However, the objection to the use of fluorides by some parents has meant that these pastes are not universally accepted. There are several non-fluoridated pastes available in the market that include the extract of miswak. There are few studies that have compared these pastes to fluoridated pastes and to miswak as a stand alone agents. Miswak has been recommended by world health organization in 1987 for oral hygiene because of its availability, beneficial effect and affordability. It has been stated that "Several clinical studies have confirmed that the mechanical and chemical cleansing efficiency of miswak chewing sticks are equal and at times greater than that of the toothbrush" this was mentioned and reviewed that it is in fact right but only when used in a regular constant matter with a proper and effective way of plaque removal. This study aims to use a cross over model to study the effectiveness of miswak as a stand alone agent in maintaining oral hygiene in young adults and compare it miswak containing toothpastes and fluoridated toothpastes when used with a manual tooth brush.
The role of CT scan of the chest in Pre-anesthetic assessment of the severity of COVID-19 and the correlations between CT measurements of the aortic and pulmonary arteries diameters and severity of pneumonia.
To evaluate and compare the effect of immunoadsorption effect of A-V ECMO on course of sepsis weaning from inotropes, weaning from the ventilator, duration of ICU stays and effect on mortality rate in patients with septic shock and respiratory failure due to ARDS followed severe lung contusion.
Early prediction of AKI can help to improve patients' outcome through early institution of the appropriate intervention, thus the current study hypothesizes that urine analysis for certain markers may provide an early knowledge about the possibility of oncoming kidney affection secondary to organ and tissue trauma affecting patients admitted to surgical ICU. The current study tries to evaluate the value of urinary markers as early predictors of possible development of AKI in patients admitted to surgical ICU.
The current study hypothesizes that the use of Intravenous intensive insulin therapy (IV-IIT) may be beneficial than IV conventional insulin therapy (IV-CIT) for improving the outcome of non-diabetic surgical patients had postoperative (PO) stress hyperglycemia (PSH).
Tracheostomized patients in the ICU can have excessive tracheal secretions due to various causes as hyperactive airway, irritation of the mucus producing cells and inhibition of the ciliary functions. Excessive secretions will necessitate frequent suctions which carries the risk of tracheostomy tube obstruction if not managed properly. Excessive tracheal secretions may prolong the ICU stay, increase the nurses workload and increase patients morbidity and mortality. This clinical trial hypothesizes that the use of glycopyrrolate may decrease the tracheal secretions and hence avoid such complications.
