There are about 173942 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in United States. 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 compare opioid consumption in morphine equivalents between the groups that received postoperative analgesia with intrathecal morphine versus US guided QL blocks versus US guided QL catheters
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a major complication among patients with severe disease. In a report of 138 patients with COVID-19, 20% developed ARDS at a median of 8 days after the onset of symptoms, with 12.3% of patients requiring mechanical ventilation. Efficacious therapies are desperately needed. Supportive care combined with intermittent prone positioning may improve outcomes. Prone positioning (PP) of patients with severe ARDS (when combined with other lung-protective ventilation strategies) is associated with a significant mortality benefit. In addition, PP for >12 hours in severe ARDS is strongly recommended by clinical practice guidelines. The aim of this study is to compare the outcomes of prone positioning versus usual care positioning in non-intubated patients hospitalized for COVID-19.
The purpose of this study is to observe whether PARP inhibitors have an effect on serum creatinine level, and whether this reflects a change in creatinine secretion or a true change in kidney function.
This phase I/II trial studies low-dose radiation therapy as a focal anti-inflammatory treatment for patients with pneumonia or SARS associated with COVID-19 infection.
A new technology, capillary refill index (CRI) can be useful for assessing peripheral perfusion status quantitatively, but this value can be influenced by fingertip temperature. The aim of this study is to evaluate the predictive accuracy of CRI after a temperature control (warming) procedure in predicting 30-day mortality among ICU/CCU patients. The investigators hypothesized that lowered fingertip temperature can lead prolonged CRI values which are considered as false positives in detection of high-risk patients for mortality, because it causes poor peripheral perfusion which does not reflect hemodynamic instability. The investigators will use the warming procedure to remove or reduce the effect of the fingertip temperature on the CRI measurement and will analyze whether it contributes to reduction of false positives in detection of high-risk patients for mortality.
Ideal new treatments for Novel Coronavirus-19 (COVID-19) would help halt the progression disease in patients with mild disease prior to the need for artificial respiration (ventilators), and also provide a rescue treatment for patients with severe disease, while also being affordable and available in quantities sufficient to treat large numbers of infected people. Low doses of Naltrexone, a drug approved for treating alcoholism and opiate addiction, as well as Ketamine, a drug approved as an anesthetic, may be able to interrupt the inflammation that causes the worst COVID-19 symptoms and prove an effective new treatment. This study will investigate their effectiveness in a randomized, blinded trial versus standard treatment plus placebo.
A study to demonstrate that the LACE+ score in non-inferior to the medication risk score when predicting 30-day readmission post hospital discharge.
The purpose of this research is to evaluate the study drug, 18F FTC-146, as a positron emission tomography (PET) / computed tomography (CT) radiotracer imaging agent to evaluate tumor status in patients newly diagnosed with osteosarcoma ("bone cancer").
To assess the efficacy and safety of orally administered Epeleuton capsules versus placebo, in the treatment of adult patients with hypertriglyceridemia and type 2 diabetes
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of prazosin to prevent cytokine storm syndrome and severe complications in hospitalized patients with Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).
