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 any good and bad effects of giving radiation treatment for breast cancer in 3 treatments over about 2 days.
This is a randomized, placebo-controlled trial that will test the efficacy of VPNP in reducing HbA1c. Participant recruitment will occur through direct-to-participant enrollment. No additional clinical sites will be used for recruitment.
This randomized Stage 1 pilot trial tests the feasibility of a community health worker (CHW) delivered chronic pain self-management intervention for older adults ("STEP-UP"; Support, Training, and Education for Pain Self-Management - Using Podcasts) in a primary care setting. A total of 40 participants aged 50+ with high-impact chronic pain will be randomized to intervention or control groups. The STEP-UP intervention will feature an educational podcast series teaching core pain self-management skills. Podcasts will be supplemented by sessions with a Community Health Worker taking place at designated times over a 7-week period. The Community Health Worker will guide participants in a modified Patient Priorities of Care approach to help them identify their values and priorities and develop goals that reflect these.
This study will utilize approved devices in an off-label manner to create forces required to induce intestinal lengthening. Radial and longitudinal forces are both required, and two devices will be used to create forces in order to test tolerability of said forces. This is to provide evidence that humans could tolerate the forces produced by a proposed commercially built device. This study will test the hypothesis that radial and longitudinal forces necessary to produce enterogenesis will cause low levels of discomfort in healthy adults. Approved devices will be utilized in an off-label manner to reproduce forces similar to our novel medical device which is designed to treat short bowel syndrome (SBS). This trial will not be testing a treatment for SBS, and individuals with SBS are ineligible for recruitment.
This study will evaluate how the crown's shape under the gums will influence the gum tissue around dental implants.
The goal of this clinical trial is to establish the feasibility and fidelity of a high-intensity exercise program for individuals with post-stroke aphasia. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Is it feasible for stroke survivors with aphasia to participate in a long in-person physical exercise program? - Does participation in a physical exercise program lead to physical fitness, cognitive, language and/or psychological changes? Participants can take part in two different physical exercise interventions: - Low intensity intervention (control intervention); - High-intensity physical exercise intervention (target intervention).
This is a multi-center retrospective chart review to compile a data repository of the management and outcomes of children with biliary atresia. Overall, investigators aim to evaluate which specific factors contribute to improved patient outcomes, to help guide potential improvements in patient care and resource utilization.
The overarching goal of this study is to support the "real world" assessment of strategies used to foster adoption of several highly efficacious evidence-based practices in healthcare systems that provide care to critically ill adults with known health disparities. Investigators will specifically evaluate two discrete strategies grounded in behavioral economic and implementation science theory (i.e., real-time audit and feedback and registered nurse implementation facilitation) to increase adoption of the ABCDEF bundle in critically ill adults.
The study aims to inform the subsequent large-scale clinical trial focused on using telerehabilitation techniques and technologies to improve upper limb function and quality of life.
The researchers will conduct observations, interviews, and focus groups with clinicians, staff and patients of the Perioperative Optimization of Senior Health (POSH) clinic, which conducts preoperative comprehensive geriatric assessments (pCGA) at UW Health to understand clinic processes and potential areas for improvement. The goal is to (1) create a process map describing clinic workflow and (2) redesign the process with healthcare providers and patients/families.
