Purpose Phototherapy has an array of potential benefits in human health. The effects of a non-transdermal Fos Biomedical product (which utilizes the concept of phototherapy) on diabetes risk factors and sleep quality in people at risk for type 2 diabetes are unclear. Proposed is a single-blind randomized crossover placebo-controlled trial to assess the impact of daily use of the Fos Biomedical product for a 12-week period on cardio-metabolic risk factors and self-reported sleep quality among adults at risk for type 2 diabetes. Specific Aims - To determine the effects of the use of the Fos Biomedical product daily for 12 weeks, as compared to placebo patch, on glycemic control in adults at risk for type 2 diabetes. Specifically, to show that the use of the Fos Biomedical product for 12 weeks, as compared to placebo patch, will improve glycated hemoglobin in adults at risk for type 2 diabetes. - To assess the effects of the use of the Fos Biomedical product, versus placebo patch, for a 12-week period on insulin sensitivity, serum lipids, C-reactive protein, anthropometric measures, self-reported sleep quality, and endothelial function in adults at risk for type 2 diabetes. Specifically, to show clinically meaningful improvement or neutral effects in insulin sensitivity, serum lipids, C-reactive protein, anthropometric measures, self-reported sleep quality, and endothelial function in adults at risk for type 2 diabetes. - To assess the impact of Fos Biomedical product on liver function and kidney function in adults at risk for type 2 diabetes Hypotheses - Daily use of the Fos Biomedical product for 12 weeks will improve glycated hemoglobin in adults at risk for type 2 diabetes. - Daily use of the Fos Biomedical product for 12 weeks will improve or have neutral effects on insulin sensitivity, serum lipids, C-reactive protein, anthropometric measures, self-reported sleep quality and endothelial function in adults at risk for type 2 diabetes. - The use of the Fos Biomedical product will have no clinically meaningful adverse effects on liver function and kidney function in adults at risk for type 2 diabetes.
The goal of this project is to address Central nervous system-active polypharmacy (CNS polyRx) in people with living dementia (PLWD) through focus group and an educational intervention. This project involves three interconnected Aims and includes engaging clinicians, patients/PLWD, and care partners (CP). AIM 1 will be completed for the development of the educational tool and is not considered a clinical trial. Therefore, this registration includes the clinical trial (Aims 2 and 3) of the project. The study hypothesizes that the total standardized daily dosage (TSDD) of the medication classes contributing to CNS polyRx will decline from baseline to 4 months in participants receiving the nudge intervention.
A clinical study that will evalute how well SEP-363856 works and how safe it is in people with schizophrenia that switch to SEP-363856 from their current antipsychotic medication. This study will accept both male and female participants, ages of 18 years to 65 years, with schizophrenia. The study will take place in approxmiately 24 study sites in North America. Particpants should expect to be in the study for up to 12 weeks.
This study will examine a heart rate variability biofeedback (HRVB) intervention versus a music listening control (MLC) for 30 family caregivers (FCGs) of Alzheimer's disease (AD) (and related dementias: ADRD) patients to examine feasibility (acceptability/adherence, satisfaction) and direction of change in caregiver burden, stress, resilience, anxiety, self-compassion, and relationship quality over the course of 8-weeks.
The goal of this clinical trial is to explore the feasibility and preliminary effects of using Pray.com on spiritual well-being and mental health symptoms in racial/ethnic minority adults. The main question it aims to answer is: What are the feasibility and preliminary effects of using Pray.com on spiritual well-being and mental health (stress, depressive and anxiety symptoms) in racial ethnic minority adults (i.e., individuals who identify as Black/African American, Latinx/Hispanic, Asian/Pacific Islander, Native American, or Multiracial)? Participants will be given the Pray.com app and directed to use it daily. Participants will complete measures at baseline (i.e., time 1) and four-weeks (i.e., time 2). A smaller subset of participants will be asked to participate in a qualitative interview.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the relative bioavailability of alprazolam in plasma following a single dose of Staccato alprazolam compared to a single dose of oral alprazolam under fasted conditions
Human factors validation testing to assess the intended user's ability to correctly, safely, and effectively set-up, activate and operate the LunulaLaser™ OTC, to administer a treatment to a suitably qualified client, and to understand the information contained in the Erchonia LunulaLaser™ OTC Installation and Proper Use Reference Guide and box labeling.
The effects of pain on cognitive performance have not been thoroughly investigated. Broadly, the purpose of this research is to investigate the effects of acute pain on performance of a variety of cognitive performance measures. The investigators hypothesize that acute pain impairs cognitive performance, particularly cognitive measures of working memory, attention, and processing speed.
Sepsis is the leading cause of death among US hospitals, accounting for 6% of all hospitalizations and 35% of all inpatient deaths. International guidelines and the CMS SEP-1 bundle stress the importance of adhering to specific steps in the diagnosis and management of sepsis. This can be very difficult, especially in the setting of a busy ED, ward, or ICU where there are multiple simultaneous demands on providers' attention and time. Critical steps can be missed or delayed. The CMS SEP-1 bundle is a measure of compliance with sepsis care that is being tracked nationally across hospitals. Unfortunately, a recent study demonstrated that every hour of delay to the completion of a sepsis bundle, including antibiotic administration, was associated with a 4% increase in risk-adjusted hospital mortality. One strategy to improve the care and outcomes of patients with sepsis is the use of information technology to support our providers in a targeted manner. Technology has already been developed and deployed to help with the early identification of patients with sepsis using a Best Practice Alert (BPA), which has been in place at our hospital since 2017. This pop-up window alerts the team to the possibility of sepsis based on data within the medical record. However, once the alert is accepted or declined, the BPA does not offer ongoing support to clinicians, leaving the clinician to track and execute multiple time-based and inter-dependent sepsis bundle measures in a busy, hectic environment. To augment this existing tool, here we propose to study the efficacy of a novel technology called the Sepsis Care Tracking Platform (SCTP) to provide ongoing support at the bedside to providers, thus improving the care we deliver to patients. SCTP is a monitoring and notification platform that aims to increase the timely delivery of key elements of evidence-based sepsis care. This platform, which was built by clinicians for clinicians, leverages the electronic medical record (EMR) to track real-time compliance with key components of the CMS SEP-1 bundle - timely antibiotics, blood cultures prior to antibiotics, initial lactate, and repeat lactate for those patients with an initially elevated level. SCTP underwent technical validation in Fall 2019 with a pilot in the MGH Emergency Department. The pilot confirmed that SCTP correctly identified missing bundle elements and paged the appropriate team members connected with the patient's care. The pilot also did not find alarm fatigue to be an issue. We hypothesize that SCTP will increase our hospital's compliance with sepsis process metrics and improve patient outcomes. By monitoring real-time data and automatically alerting bedside providers to missing elements within an actionable timeframe, SCTP has the potential to drive improvements in clinical care even in the extremely busy and complex environment of the emergency department and inpatient units.
