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 goal of this study is to collect post-market data for the Ion Endoluminal System to understand CT to body divergence.
The purpose of this clinical investigation in open, elective, spine surgery is to collect data to support the removal of the neurosurgical exclusion from the currently approved indication for the use of HEMOBLAST™ Bellows. This study is primarily designed to assess safety of the device for use in spine surgery, although efficacy information will also be captured and reported.
This immune support program will be an extension to the existing LIFEHOUSE program. Essential employees in Gig Harbor, WA; Colonial Heights, VA; Lenexa, KS, and Santa Fe Springs, CA, will be offered complimentary supplementation with commercially available nutritional supplements supportive of immune health for several months. The outcome will be measured via blood parameters and questionnaire responses.
SURF-200 is being studied in people experiencing an episodic flare-up of their dry eye disease. SURF-200 is an investigational drug (which means the study drug is currently being tested) in the form of a sterile eye drop. The purpose of this research study is to see how well SURF-200 works and what side effects there are, and to compare it with vehicle (placebo). The study will involve about 120 study participants at multiple research sites in the United States.
SURF-100 is being studied for the treatment of dry eye disease. SURF-100 is an investigational drug (which means the study drug is currently being tested) in the form of a sterile eye drop. The purpose of this research study is to see how well SURF-100 works to treat dry eye and what potential side effects there are, and to compare it with Vehicle (placebo), 0.1% mycophenolic acid (MPA) in Vehicle, 0.3% MPA in Vehicle, 0.01% betamethasone phosphate (BSP) in Vehicle, Restasis and Xiidra. This study will involve about 280-350 study participants age 18 and older at about 40 different research sites in the United States.
The overall goal of this study is to evaluate the association of quarantine measures for COVID-19 and perceived anxiety, stigma and loneliness and to evaluate the efficacy of interventions in reducing anxiety, loneliness and perception of stigma induced by self-isolation during the outbreak. Specific Aims: In the proposed study, participants will include members of the United States general population who will be randomly assigned to either (a) a vignette to learn about the COVID-19 outbreak, (b) a vignette to learn about the COVID-19 outbreak AND a video aimed at encouraging the use of a digital device (i.e. not in person contact) to meet with friends, (c) a vignette to learn about the COVID-19 outbreak AND a video aimed at sensitizing participants to COVID-19 related stigma, (d) Control arm. Web-based self-report questionnaires will be conducted to compare interventions and control groups. The short and low-cost online module will allow recruitment of a large sample of people. Hypotheses: (1) the video-based intervention groups will demonstrate lower rates of anxiety and loneliness than vignette and control groups, (2) the video-based group that presents an individual with COVID-19 will demonstrate lower rate of stigma than other groups.
The goal of this double-blinded randomized controlled trial is to compare whether the addition of Dronabinol compared to a placebo will affect opioid intake in patients undergoing a total knee arthroplasty. The main question it aims to answer are: 1. Does perioperative dronabinol use (starting in the immediate preoperative period (enrollment before 1 PM), with BID dosing concluding the evening of POD2) affect postoperative opioid consumption 24-48 hours following total knee arthroplasty? 2. Is there an effect of perioperative dronabinol use in the total knee arthroplasty patient on POD2 pain scores with ambulation? 3. Will hospital length of stay following total knee arthroplasty be affected in patients who use perioperative dronabinol as compared to control? 4. Does the use of perioperative dronabinol affect time to reach physical therapy discharge goals in postoperative total knee arthroplasty patients? 5. Is there a change in number of postoperative oxygen desaturation events in patients following total knee arthroplasty based on perioperative dronabinol use? Participants will: - Be randomized to take the dronabinol or placebo medication in 5 dosage - Answer survey questions in regard to pain, postop nausea/vomiting, cognitive/adverse event, and outcome quality and support of decision making. - Be connected to a Masimo to record oxygen saturation and an Actigraph to record sleep quality. Researchers will compare two groups: 1) intervention group and 2) control group to see if dronabinol affect postoperative opioid consumption 24-48 hours following their total knee arthroplasty surgery.
A feasibility study of an integrative medicine program among patients with Hypermobility Spectrum Disorder (HSD) or Ehlers-Danlos syndromes (EDS)
The purpose of this study (Bio-Hermes) is to develop a blood, digital, and brain amyloid PET scan biomarker database that can be used to determine whether a meaningful relationship exists between digital tests, blood amyloid-beta, p-tau, and neurofilament biomarker levels and amyloid-beta levels identified through brain amyloid PET images. Blood collected will also be genetically sequenced to gain insights about genes and brain amyloid. The Bio-Hermes study will include 1,000 volunteers over the age of 60 screened for Preclinical Alzheimer's Disease, Prodromal AD, or Mild Dementia AD, and includes an endpoint enrollment requirement of 200 participants from underrepresented minority populations.
This study will facilitate a better understanding of the overall experience of our rectal cancer survivors after Low Anterior Resection for rectal cancer. Studies have demonstrated that the development of bowel and genitourinary dysfunction after this procedure is very distressing to patients and can have a significant impact on overall quality of life. By providing interventions that can be performed at home, investigator may alleviate these symptoms in hopes of improving the experience of patients undergoing Low Anterior Resection. By acknowledging these potentially debilitating symptoms in a systematic way, the investigator hopes to reinforce the importance of symptom management in the survivorship phase after treatment has been completed and ultimately facilitate an individual's return to routine activities.
