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.
Nasal oxygen is widely used as pain relief against ischemic pain during Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI). However, to our knowledge no randomised clinical trials have tested this. In contrast, oxygen causes coronary artery vasoconstriction in man. Furthermore, a recent Cochrane meta-analysis has shown no evidence of beneficial effect of oxygen for patients with acute myocardial infarction (with normal blood saturation. The investigators therefore wanted to examine if oxygen reduces ischemic pain during PCI for stable angina or NSTEMI.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that rhBSSL improves growth in preterm infants as compared with placebo.
This is a prospective randomized study to compare surgical methods for the repair of large abdominal hernia.
Ureterolithiasis pain is a severe condition for which it takes some 30 minutes for standard treatment to yield maximal pain relief, a period during which the patient suffers severe to intolerable pain. It would thus be valuable to further evaluate sterile water injection as a method for achieving rapid relief for this type of pain.
The purpose of the study is to develop a 20% subcutaneous immunoglobulin treatment option for patients with primary immunodeficiency (PID) diseases.
This randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, parallel-group study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of ocrelizumab in comparison with interferon beta-1a (Rebif) in participants with relapsing multiple sclerosis. Participants will be randomized to receive either ocrelizumab 600 mg or matching placebo intravenous (IV) as 300 mg infusions on Days 1 and 15 for the first dose and as a single infusion of 600 mg for all subsequent infusions every 24 weeks, with placebo injections matching interferon beta-1a SC three times per week; or interferon beta-1a 44 mcg SC injections three times per week (with placebo infusions matching ocrelizumab infusions every 24 weeks).
The purpose of this Phase 3 study is to assess the pharmacokinetics of rVWF:rFVIII and rVWF, and to assess the safety and efficacy of rVWF:rFVIII and rVWF in the treatment of bleeding events in subjects with severe hereditary von Willebrand disease (VWD).
The primary objective of the study is to determine physician reported persistence with the Avonex PEN at Month 12/End of Study as well as determining factors associated with persistence. The secondary objectives for this study are as follows: To evaluate the tolerability for treatment administration of the Avonex PEN at Months 3, 6, and 12; To evaluate patient quality of life (QoL) while using the Avonex PEN for treatment administration at Months 3, 6, and 12; To evaluate clarity of directions for use of the Avonex PEN at Month 3; To evaluate ease of use and the patient's assessment of the injection procedure with the Avonex PEN at Months 3, 6, and 12; To evaluate patient reported adherence at Months 6 and 12; To evaluate physician reported persistence at Month 6; To evaluate overall patient satisfaction with the use of the Avonex PEN for treatment administration at Months 3, 6, and 12; To evaluate patient reported fear of injection at Months 3, 6, and 12; and To evaluate the percentage of patients switching from caregiver to self-injection at Months 3, 6, and 12.
This is a safety study of the Rapid System for acute ischemic stroke.
The purpose of this study s to determine whether treatment with Iodinated Active Charcoal can improve lung function and physical capacity in patients with chronic obstructive lung disorders. The rational for the study is the observation that COPD patients have an increased tissue load of mercury interfering with the function by NeuroEpithelial Endocrine (NEE) cells in the respiratory tract. Mercury binding to these NEE cells leads to an increased smooth muscle tonus and a reduced response to bronchodilator treatment. Initial observational data have shown an improved lung function and improved functional capacity after treatment motivating a larger placebo controlled POC study
