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.
Assess differences in structure and biological function of abdominal subcutaneous adipose tissue samples collected from adults who exercise regularly vs. a well-matched cohort of non-exercisers.
A commercially available product clinical study which aims to confirm the safety, performance, and clinical benefits to the patient of the ALPS Clavicle Plating system for both the implant itself and the instrumentation used during surgery.
The use of peri-arrest bolus epinephrine (PBE) has emerged as a rescue strategy for life-threatening hypotension in pediatric intensive care units (ICU) despite scant published data supporting its use in this setting. As optimal dosing of PBE in this population is unclear, we aim to determine if an initial dose of 0.5 mcg/kg versus 1.0 mcg/kg yields differences in hemodynamic outcomes. The EPI Dose Study is a single-center, prospective, randomized, double-blind, dose-effect trial measuring systolic blood pressure (SBP) before and after PBE is given. We hypothesize that the 1.0 mcg/kg group will have more robust increases in SBP.
The PCORI HIGHway project name embodies its goal: the way to "Honor Individuals Goals and Hopes". HIGHway trains and supports dialysis center social workers and nurses to communicate with their patients about their hopes and goals for their future care plans. This process, known as advance care planning (ACP), helps relieve patient concerns about the future, lays the foundation for better goal-concordant care at the end of life, and fosters deeper connection between patient and the dialysis care team. The HIGHway project will provide training and ongoing coaching to social workers and other change team members at 50-60 dialysis centers throughout the US. The goal is to integrate advance care planning conversations between dialysis patients and their health care team into the ongoing workflow of dialysis centers. The project is funded by the Patient Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI), a non-profit organization chartered by Congress to fund projects to promote patient-centered care.
This study will determine systemic vitamin A status and lesion histopathology of participants with vocal fold hyperkeratosis resulting in clinical leukoplakia.
This is an exploratory study designed to optimize, standardize, and validate novel breath biomarkers; there are no objective endpoints. The goal of this study is to generate pilot data to be used to generate hypothesis-driven studies.
The primary goal of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of the iDECIDE curriculum as an alternative to punitive responses for school-based substance use infractions.
The purpose of this voluntary research study is to determine the impact of an ECHO intervention on the likelihood that rural primary care providers (PCP) will refer their physically inactive patients to be more active.
Health care providers are seeking methods to limit post-operative pain and opioid prescriptions to reduce the burden of the national opioid use epidemic. Adductor canal block (ACB) is a peripheral nerve block that has been shown to reduce pain and opioid usage with minimal effect on quadriceps function in patients undergoing arthroscopic knee surgery. Infiltration between Popliteal Artery and Capsule of the Knee (iPACK) block has also shown promise in reducing pain and opioid usage, specifically reducing posterior knee pain, which ACB is not able to achieve. To our knowledge, there is currently no study in the orthopedic literature comparing post-operative pain and opioid consumption in ACL reconstruction (ACLR) patients who received isolated ACB versus ACB with IPACK. The primary aim of this study is to investigate the role of IPACK in combination with ACB in reducing peri-operative (14-days) pain levels in ACLR patients. The secondary aim is to determine the effectiveness of IPACK in reducing post-operative opioid use. The tertiary aim is to determine any effect of IPACK on post-operative functional outcomes.
The purpose of this study is to help scientists and clinicians discover answers to research questions related to antibiotic-resistant bacterial infections, and the role that phage therapy plays as a possible treatment.
