There are about 8563 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Sweden. 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 describe the effect of partial neuromuscular blockade of rocuronium on the acute hypoxic ventilatory response in patients with OSA before and after 3 month of CPAP treatment.
This study examines whether a nurse monitored management program at the hospital heart failure outpatient clinic can improve quality of life in elderly patients with chronic heart failure, as compared to standard treatment in primary healthcare.
Adults with congenital heart disease have various degrees of impaired exercise capacity compared to healthy controls. Impaired exercise capacity makes everyday activities more difficult and demanding. There are few studies on effect of exercise training in adults with congenital heart disease. The hypothesis of this study is that structured home based exercise training will improve exercise capacity and health status in the studied population.
In this part of the Registry Program patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (AF) at risk for stroke are enrolled to characterize the target population and to collect real world data on important outcome events. For administrative purposes the study is divided into two protocol numbers: 1160.129 for non-EU (European Union) and non-EEA (European Economic Area) countries, and 1160.136 for EU and EEA countries. The total number of patients enrolled in both protocols is estimated to be 48,000 patients, and all these patients will be included in the data analysis for study 1160.129.
This is a prospective, multicenter, single arm, observational pilot study to assess the clinical outcomes of Strattice Reconstructive Tissue Matrix for perineal reconstruction following eLAPE and simultaneous stoma reinforcement.
Prevention in School (PS) is a modified School-Wide Positive Behavior Support Program at the universal prevention level, developed by Swedish researchers for the school years 4 -9. By defining and teaching school rules to all teachers and students, and by consistently acknowledging students when meeting behavioural expectations, the program aims to reduce problem behaviours in school areas and to improve the classroom learning climate. Against this background, the purpose of this study is to examine whether PS is more effective than schools' ordinary practices in meeting these goals.
This multicenter observational study will evaluate the use of RoActemra/Actemra (tocilizumab) in monotherapy in patients with active moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis unable to use methotrexate. Eligible patients initiated on RoActemra/Actemra treatment will be followed for 6 months.
The most widely used operative technique for gastroesophageal reflux is total fundoplication where the gastric fundus is sutured around the distal esophagus like a wrap. This operation effectively prevents gastroesophageal reflux but gives rise to postoperative symptoms related to over-competence of the gastroesophageal junction. 40% of the operated patients experience increased flatulence and 20% dysphagia. Anterior fundoplication is an alternative technique where the distal esophagus is anchored to the crura of the hiatus esophagi and only a part of the front wall of the esophagus is covered with fundus. An anterior fundoplication is un attempt to create a more physiologic reflux control and less functional problems postoperatively. The aim with this study is to compare the results postoperatively, both short time and long time results.
The purpose of the study is to compare the clinical benefit, as measured by duration of overall survival, of Nivolumab vs. Everolimus in subjects with advanced or metastatic clear-cell renal cell carcinoma who have received prior anti-angiogenic therapy
Background: Studies show that about 1 out of 3 patients in Primary Care suffer primarily from mental health disorders, such as anxiety disorders and depression. Cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) has been shown to be an effective treatment of these disorders. Despite the strong evidence for CBT there is a lack of evidence-based psychological treatment in primary care. For various reasons, the progress of research has not affected clinical practice. For successful implementation of CBT in primary care cost-effective therapies, access to therapists with proper training and supervision, evidence-based manuals and management that support the implementation is needed. Aim: The aim of this trial is to evaluate a stepped care model with CBT in primary care. All patients are first treated with self-help CBT (N = 400). Patients that do not improve after treatment (9 weeks) are randomized to individual CBT or continued self-help treatment. Based on published studies 2/3 is expected to be improved after self-help and therefore do not undergo randomization. 1/3 (n = 133) who didn´t respond to treatment is randomized to individual CBT (N = 67) or continued self-help treatment (N = 67).
