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.
To investigate the impact of high vs low Intraocular Pressure (IOP) on the intraoperative experience for the patient and surgeon. Operating at a more physiologic IOP using Active Sentry hand piece during cataract surgery will result in significantly less discomfort/pain as assessed by the decreased need for rescue medication
The primary objectives of the study are: To estimate the effectiveness of nirsevimab against polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-confirmed RSV (1) lower respiratory tract (LRTD) and (2) related medical encounters. the secondary objectives are: 1. To estimate the effectiveness of nirsevimab against medical encounters with a respiratory related diagnosis. 2. To estimate the effectiveness of nirsevimab against medical encounters with an LRTD diagnosis. 3. To estimate the impact of nirsevimab on PCR-confirmed RSV. 4. To estimate the impact of nirsevimab on medical encounters with an otitis media diagnosis. 5. To estimate the impact of nirsevimab on antibiotic prescription.
The purpose of the CLEAR study is to determine the effect on counterregulatory responses (CRR) of intervening (by attempting to strictly avoid hypoglycemia) to improve awareness of hypoglycemic symptoms among adults with type 1 diabetes (T1D) who have impaired awareness of hypoglycemia (IAH). IAH affects 20-25% of adults with T1D, and rises with increasing duration of T1D.
Humans are constantly exposed to a variety of light types, created naturally or through artificial means. Light exposure captured by the eyes impacts many physiological functions in humans, including but not limited to cognitive output, fatigue levels, and mood regulation. The level of impact on cognitive learning from different types of light on undergraduate adult students remains unclear.
This clinical trial evaluates changes in quality of life after two treatments with near margin-less adaptive radiation therapy (ART) compared to five treatments with standard stereotactic ablative body radiotherapy (SABR) in patients with prostate cancer that has not spread to other parts of the body (localized). ART is a type of radiation therapy that uses information gathered during the treatment cycle to inform, guide, and alter future radiation treatments with respect to location and dose. It may be able to deliver radiation to the site of disease over a shorter time and with smaller margins (less treatment delivered to nearby healthy tissues). SABR is a type of external radiation therapy that uses special equipment to position a patient and precisely deliver radiation to tumors in the body (except the brain). The total dose of radiation is divided into smaller doses given over several days. This type of radiation therapy helps spare normal tissue. Shorter duration near margin-less ART may be just as effective at treating patients with localized prostate cancer but have less quality of life side effects than standard SABR.
The goal of our pragmatic clinical trial is to compare how well three different strategies might do to reduce risk factors for cardiovascular disease in patients experiencing health disparities. The three different strategies are: 1) text messages, 2) interactive chatbot messages, and 3) chatbot messages with proactive pharmacist support. To measure cardiovascular risk factors, the investigators are using the American Heart Association's Life's Essential 8 (LE8) factors-blood glucose, cholesterol, blood pressure, physical activity, body mass index, diet, and smoking. This study focuses on improving cardiovascular risk factors for individuals facing health disparities, such as ethnic minorities, limited English proficiency, and low-income groups. These groups are more likely to be seriously affected by cardiovascular diseases. Self-management, or an individual's roles in managing their own chronic disease, includes lifestyle changes, medication adherence. Improving patients' self-management has been shown to improve health behaviors, better disease control and improved patient outcomes. The main question this study aims to answer is if one of the strategies (texting, chatbot, or chatbot with pharmacist support) may improve patient self-management and patient outcomes. The investigators will enroll up to 2,100 patients from three health systems that serve large populations experiencing health disparities: Denver Health, Salud Family Health Centers, and STRIDE Community Health Center. The results might help researchers and health care systems find the best ways to involve patients with health disparities to managing their chronic cardiovascular disease.
The aim of this study is to compare the impact of common (standard of care) language vs positive language used by clinicians during inhalational induction of anesthesia on anxiety and negative behaviors in children. This is a prospective randomized parallel group trial. Patients will be randomized 1:1 to the common/standard language group or the positive language group.
The purpose of this aim of the study is to gather quantitative and qualitative information to inform the development of a digital app tailored for Native American women to help them avoid a pregnancy affected by alcohol.
The proposed study will test whether neurofeedback (NF) could optimize integrative body-mind training (IBMT) practice.
For this protocol, the investigators plan to collect pilot data to evaluate apremilast (60mg/day) in adults with Alcohol Use Disorders (AUD).
