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 Focused Assessment with Sonography for Trauma (FAST) exam is widely used and accepted as part of advanced trauma life support (ATLS) protocol, but its low sensitivity for identifying solid organ injury in the absence of hemoperitoneum is a significant limitation. Contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) has the potential to significantly enhance the evaluation of the trauma patient with acute intra-abdominal injury through the use of intravascular microbubbles that allow direct visualization of lacerations to solid organs. European studies have demonstrated that ultrasound contrast markedly improves the sensitivity of ultrasound in detecting solid organ injury, when the exam is performed in the radiology suite. The researchers hypothesize that the bubble-enhanced FAST or BEFAST exam will be more sensitive than traditional FAST for identification of solid organ injury in hemodynamically stable blunt abdominal trauma patients when performed by emergency providers.
The aims of the study are: - to assess the safety profile of danavorexton when it is administered with anesthetics. - to learn what effect danavorexton has on anesthetized adults. On Day 1, participants will receive a single intravenous (IV) infusion of danavorexton or a placebo after participants have been anesthetized for about 40 minutes. Clinic doctors will arrange a follow-up visit by phone or video on Day 7.
This intervention pilot feasibility study will assess the impact of auricular acupressure as an additional non-pharmacologic therapy for infants at risk for developing Iatrogenic Withdrawal Syndrome (IWS) in the Pediatric Cardiac Intensive Care Unit (PCICU) of Monroe Carrell Jr Children's Hospital at Vanderbilt (MCJCHV). The investigators will recruit 40 healthy, 34 weeks gestational age or older infants exposed to prolonged medications (greater than 5 days) for cardiac procedures that may cause withdrawal upon cessation such as opioids, benzodiazepines, or other sedative medications. Participants will receive the auricular acupressure in addition to the standard of care such as clustered nursing care, touch, position change, environmental controls, holding, and swaddling.
This study is a 6-month, prospective, multicenter, bilateral, randomized subject- and evaluator-masked, clinical investigation of the TECNIS Eyhance IOL versus the TECNIS 1-piece IOL. The study will be conducted at up to 15 sites in the U.S.A and will enroll approximately 220 subjects to achieve approximately 200 randomized and bilaterally implanted subjects, resulting in approximately 100 evaluable subjects in each lens group at 6 months. Subjects are to be implanted with the same IOL in both eyes: TECNIS Eyhance IOL or the TECNIS 1-Piece IOL. The eye implanted first will be considered the primary study eye.
This is a prospective, open-label single-arm observational clinical trial to assess enteral feeding nutrition goals with a peptide-based, high protein enteral formula.
This pilot study will assess the ability of daily consumption of one dose (2 servings) of freeze-dried whole table grape powder, made from conventionally grown grapes to alter the composition of the bacteria that live in the intestines in healthy subjects. The grape powder contains 46g of individually quick frozen (IQF) grapes, which is equivalent to 252g fresh fruit. 20 subjects will will consume the beige diet for 4 weeks followed by one dose (two servings) of standardized Freeze-Dried Whole Table Grape Powder (46g) daily for 4 weeks. The primary objective of this pilot study is to determine changes in the gut microbiome. Stool samples will be collected at 4 and 8 weeks for bacterial DNA to determine changes in the bacteria that live in the intestines. You will be asked to avoid foods rich in polyphenols including dark chocolate and cocoa products, dried herbs, berries, coffee, tea, flaxseeds, nuts (chestnut, hazelnut), olive and artichoke for the duration of the study.
The purpose of this study is to assess the bioequivalence of the 21mg nicotine transdermal patch from GSK Dungarvan (Test) compared to the 21mg nicotine transdermal patch currently manufactured by Alza (Reference).
Generalized anxiety disorder affects about 6.8 million adults in the United States, therefore its treatment is of major public health interest. Cannabidiol (CBD) has shown promise as an effective treatment for anxiety-related symptoms while lacking the severity of adverse effects seen with other medications. Given the wide availability of products containing CBD on the market today, from tinctures to coffee additives, and the undetermined potential for drug-to-drug interactions, medical supervision of CBD intake and formulation-specific clinical research is necessary. Therefore this study aimed to observe the effects of a specific hemp-derived full spectrum CBD formula on anxiety-related symptoms in a group of volunteers. The investigators will examine the self-reported anxiety symptoms in relation to use of a specific CBD formulation (25mg solvent-free full spectrum CBD capsules) in a cohort of adults diagnosed with generalized anxiety disorder. This open-label, cohort study will be conducted at six clinic sites in the United States (including Puerto Rico) from June 2020 through October 2020. The six physicians recruited to participate in the study were each actively prescribing CBD in their practices and were actively caring for patients with anxiety symptoms. Anxiety levels will be measured in enrolled participants diagnosed with generalized anxiety disorder each week for a period of eight weeks using the Generalized Anxiety Disorder 7-Item Scale (GAD7). Participants will also be instructed to take a daily 25mg capsule of CBD. The investigators hypothesize that this formula, when carefully developed and administered by a healthcare professional, will significantly reduce anxiety symptoms.
The purpose of this study is to continue development and validation of an algorithm for burn healing assessment by the Spectral MD DeepView device and provide burn healing potential assessment.
This is a non-interventional cohort study using existing administrative data from the U.S. Medicare program. This study has two objectives: - Identification of adherence trajectories of nintedanib among Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) patients. - Understanding characteristics of patients within each nintedanib adherence trajectory among IPF patients.
