There are about 3709 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Thailand. 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 compare outcomes (i.e. pain, wound infection, and patient satisfaction) between infra-umbilical vs. trans-umbilical incision after Laparoscopic cholecystectomy
Spinal block leads to the reduction of systemic vascular resistance (SVR) which may effect the cardiac output. Ngan Kee et al. has showed that spina block with 0.5% hyperbaric bupivacaine for Cesarean section combined with intravenous infusion norepinephrine had higher cardiac output than those who received phenylephrine
Nowadays, TRUS biopsy become one of the most popular tests for diagnosis of prostate cancer. This procedure causes pain to the patients who does not received the sedative drugs or analgesic drugs. There are many ways to reduce pain and inconvenience for the patients, such as intravenous propofol, intravenous fentanyl etc. In Siriraj hospital, anesthesiologists usually give intravenous propofol with intravenous opioids but the visual analogue score after this procedure was average at 0.9-2.9. Furthermore, some systematic reviews have shown that there was no difference in pain score between periprostatic nerve block plus opioid and periprostatic nerve block only. So, this study is to find out whether opioids is need for TRUS biopsy.
This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of different hepatitis B vaccination regimens in HIV-infected adults with low CD4 cell count in northern Thailand.
This is prospective study to assess the pharmacodynamics (t>MIC) of 4.5 g every 6 h of piperacillin/tazobactam in patients with early phase of severe sepsis/septic shock following administration by a 30 min infusion. Clinical and laboratory data such as age, sex, body weight, electrolyte, vital signs, APACHAE II score, BUN, Cr and fluid balance will be collected. Fifty patients will be enrolled in this study. Piperacillin pharmacokinetic study will be carried out during the piperacillin/tazobactam therapy. Each patient received 4.5 g every 6 h of piperacillin/tazobactam within 24 h of severe sepsis or septic shock, blood samples (approximately 3 ml) will be obtained by direct venipuncture at the following time: 0, 0-0.5, 0.5-2, 2-4 and 4-6 h after piperacillin/tazobactam therapy. Concentration of piperacillin in plasma will be simulated in Monte Carlo technique to get PK/PD index and reported to % PTA and % CFR.
Does Early Initiation of Renal Replacement Therapy Have an Impact on 7-day Fluid Balance in Critically Ill Patients with Acute Kidney Injury with Positive Furosemide Stress Test?: a Multicenter Randomized Controlled Trial
Objective of this study are to compare the interface pressure by applying ordinary elastic bandage (OEB) and CPG-EB. In addition, investigators compared the percentage of patients who could apply the optimal pressure with OEB and CPG-EB.
Title: Comparison of different prophylaxis regimens for hemophilia A pediatric patients Principal Investigator: Assistant Professor Darintr Sosothikul, MD Research Question: Does different factor VIII dosage effect outcome of hemophilia treatment in term of breakthrough bleeding, number of hospital stay and day-off from school? Type Research: Clinical research Study design: Single center clinical trials Concise methodology: 1. Study Population: Children with hemophilia A who received treatment at KCMH from May 2015 to March 2016 will be enrolled in this study. The consent will be obtained before the study. 2. Observation and measurement: 1. History, interesting clinical data and laboratory data will be recorded in Clinical record Form (CRF) 2. Measurement: i. Complete blood count (CBC), Factor VIII level, Factor VIII inhibitor level ii. Number of breakthrough bleedings, number of hospital stay and day-off from school iii. Joint score from Hemophilia Joint Health Score 2.1 iv. EQ-5D-5L quality of life assessment score 3. Data analysis: The p-value of less than 0.05 will be considered statistically significant. Mann-Whitney test will be used to test correlation of these variables (CBC, Factor VIII level, Factor VIII inhibitor level, Number of breakthrough bleedings, number of hospital stay, day-off from school, Hemophilia Joint Health Score 2.1, EQ-5D-5L quality of life assessment score) Sample size: 16 patients Potential impacts: The outcomes of different factor VIII concentrate dose between 15-20 U/kg/dose 2 times/week and 35-40 U/kg/dose 1 time/week will be revealed. These outcomes include number of breakthrough bleeding, number of hospital stay, day-off from school, joint health and quality of life. The result of this study will guide further study on optimal dose and duration of factor VIII treatment of hemophilia A patients in the future.
This study will evaluate the efficacy of Once-daily Budesonide/formoterol Turbuhaler 160/4.5 µg/d in the period of step down in well controlled asthmatic patient.
This is a prevalence study of protective antibodies to measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) in HIV-infected adults and HIV-uninfected controls. MMR vaccination were provided to both groups who had no protective antibodies to at least one of the three viruses.
