There are about 3491 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Singapore. 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.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate visual outcomes in patients with complex corneas who have been previously implanted with the IC-8 IOL after cataract removal.
Background: Using outcome measures is emphasized in foundational training and clinical practice guidelines, but less than 50% of rehabilitation professionals consistently use outcome measures in practice. No studies have evaluated the barriers to routine outcome measurement in Singapore's healthcare settings nor identified effective implementation strategies to sustain the use of outcome measures in practice. Aims: To evaluate the effectiveness of a tailored multi-component implementation intervention effectiveness in improving the consistency of use of the Fugl-Meyer Assessment of Upper Extremity (FMA) among occupational therapists practicing in 4 hospitals in Singapore. Method: The project will use the Normalisation Process Theory as a framework and data collection sites will include Singapore General Hospital, Sengkang General Hospital, Outram Community Hospital, and Sengkang Community Hospital. The investigators will use a stepped-wedge randomised trial design. The study will begin with an initial period in which no hospitals are exposed to the intervention. Subsequently, at regular intervals, one hospital will cross from the control to the intervention. The investigators will continue this process until the intervention is introduced to all hospitals. The intervention will be fully implemented by the end of the trial, with all 4 hospitals receiving the multi-component intervention. Project Significance: This trial is part of a larger project that uses a theory-driven approach to systematically explore the embedding and integration of outcome measures in routine clinical care for rehabilitation professionals in Singapore (beyond initial implementation stages). Study findings will contribute to the scientific knowledge base of implementing outcome measures in clinical practice, improve patient care, and support future implementation projects on outcome measurement in different populations and healthcare settings.
The study aim to test the effect of a meal complement to be taken in combination with an evening meal with a glycemic load of 55, to improve sleep quality.
The study aims to evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of using SAIF (an end-to-end System for Assessment and Intervention of Frailty) to reduce the risk and delay the progress of physical frailty.
The study is conducted to assess potential effectiveness and feasibility of a comprehensive digital intervention for people with poorly-controlled Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM), to explore the intervention effects of a combined online and offline management for people with T2DM and ultimately to improve the accessibility of lifestyle intervention among participants with T2DM.
The study is a randomised controlled trial that aims to evaluate whether carbohydrate loading pre-endoscopy can improve patients' overall satisfaction and is not associated with negative impact on endoscopic quality or increased complications. A questionnaire will be completed by participants prior to endoscopy.
The main purpose of this study is to conduct blood tests to measure how much LY3502970 is in the bloodstream when administered as two different formulations in healthy participants. The study will also evaluate the safety and tolerability of LY3502970. The study will last up to 13 weeks excluding the screening period.
South Asian men have lower cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) than white men which is associated with a reduced capacity to oxidise fat during exercise. This is a risk factor for weight gain/regain. Whilst comparisons with Europeans are valuable, Asians are not a homogenous group and substantial differences in obesity and body fat partitioning exist with ethnicity. This cross-sectional pilot investigation aims to compare CRF and fat oxidation at rest and during exercise in Chinese, Indian and Malay men (from Singapore) with elevated BMI (23 -30 kg/m2). Forty-five men (15 each ethnicity) with elevated body mass index (23 -30 kg/m2) will complete testing in a fasted state on two separate mornings separated by ≥72 hours: (i) for a measure of CRF; and (ii) for a measure of fat oxidation at rest and during incremental exercise.
The main purpose of this study is to learn about how food affects selpercatinib in healthy participants. The selpercatinib will be administered in fed and fasted states. Participation could last about 7 weeks.
Dengue can be mitigated by both vector control and vaccination. Serious games in healthcare can be used to raise the community awareness of vector control in dengue prevention in a simulated interactive learning environment, by motivating serious game participants to optimise their own performance and influence their behaviour. The results show a specially designed serious game can better engage local residents by raising their awareness in vector control and proactiveness in dengue prevention. At least 8 out of 10 participants were willing to be vaccinated against dengue if they knew of the availability of a safe and effective vaccine.
