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.
A urodynamic study (UDS) is a common procedure done to learn more about the cause of urinary symptoms. For some patients, UDS can be associated with anxiety or discomfort. Nitrous oxide (or laughing-gas) is a well-known sedative which is frequently used in dental offices and for pediatric procedures to reduce anxiety and pain. This study is being done to see if giving low-dose (25-50%) nitrous oxide at the time of UDS affects the measurements taken during the procedure, such as how much volume your bladder can hold, and pressures during urination. If the measurements are the same with and without self-administered nitrous oxide (SANO), it could be suggested that nitrous oxide may be a useful way of reducing patient anxiety and pain during UDS.
Supra SDRM® is FDA-cleared as a dressing for treating partial and full-thickness wounds. It is a dermal substitute that provides a barrier and an ECM-like structure to help accelerate wound healing. SUPRA SDRM® has 510k approval for partial and full-thickness wounds and has shown promising results in preliminary animal studies. The purpose of this clinical evaluation is to collect and compare outcomes data from patients with UT 1A diabetic foot ulcers treated with a commercially available dermal substitute, Supra SDRM®, as compared to an advanced standard of care (Fibracol Plus). Patient outcomes, including time to heal, healing by 12 weeks, direct costs, and infection rate, will be compared at the end of the study.
The purpose of this study is to assess the ability of long-duration low-intensity therapeutic ultrasound (LITUS) to alleviate knee Osteoarthritis pain over an 8-week period. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the analgesic effect of LITUS in subjects suffering from knee Osteoarthritis pain. Secondary objectives are to assess the ability of LITUS to improve joint function.
Open-label, non-randomized, prospective, multi-center, self-controlled clinical study with masked evaluation.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test an app-based mindfulness training program in an Afro-descendant population. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - What changes, if any, does the app need? - Is it effective in reducing anxiety among this population? Participants will be asked to: - Use an app-based mindfulness training program daily - Complete online surveys at baseline and 2 months post-treatment initiation - Complete focused interviews via Zoom at baseline and 2 months post-treatment initiation - Complete daily voice diaries via Zoom
Early feasibility study to estimate the functionality of a novel intervention based on non-invasive transcutaneous electrical stimulation of the hypoglossal nerve to reduce the Apnea Hypopnea Index (AHI).
The goal of this study is to determine whether a novel questionnaire designed to illicit patient's self-reported expectations across four domains (overall purpose of visit, medication intervention, imaging intervention and disposition) improves patient-provider communication as evaluated by an exit survey during an emergency room visit.
The Disrupt PAD III study was designed as a randomized controlled trial (RCT) with an additional observational registry component. The registry, referred to as the Disrupt PAD III Observational Study (PAD III OS), was a global, prospective, multi-center, single-arm registry of the Shockwave Peripheral Intravascular Lithotripsy (IVL) System. The objective of this study was to assess the real-world acute performance of IVL in the treatment of calcified, stenotic, peripheral arteries that may not qualify for inclusion in the RCT. The study was designed to enroll a maximum of 1500 subjects from up to 60 global sites with a minimum of 200 subjects treated with the S4 IVL catheter, a line extension designed to treat smaller diameter peripheral vessels, including calcified below-the-knee (BTK) lesions. Subjects were required to have target lesions in the iliac, femoral, ilio-femoral, popliteal, or infra-popliteal arteries with at least moderate calcification as determined by the investigator, defined as calcification within the lesion on both sides of the vessel assessed by angiography. Adjunctive therapies such as atherectomy, specialty balloons, and stents were allowed. Subjects were followed through discharge.
The summary of this research study is to test the effectiveness of a rapid "rescue" acupuncture technique as a non-pharmacologic alternative treatment for the reduction of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms in affected individuals as a means to improve warfighter health and enable a more rapid return to duty, especially in austere environments. Patients will receive acupuncture as a research-related course of treatment for PTSD. The PCL-5 questionnaire will be used to assess the presence and severity of PTSD symptoms. A PCL-5 questionnaire will be administered at the beginning of the first treatment of "rescue" acupuncture and after the last treatment. Following the acupuncture treatment, a PCL-5 questionnaire will be initiated at the beginning of the first week of treatment and the end of the second week of treatment at the participating Mental Health Clinic (pMHC).
Individuals diagnosed with autism are also often diagnosed with anxiety disorders. Therefore, having useful strategies to manage stress and anxiety may be particularly helpful for autistic individuals. Mindfulness-based interventions, delivered in-person as well as those offered remotely online, have been found to lower stress and anxiety. Although in-person mindfulness training has been found to be helpful for autistic individuals, there is little research that has studied remote app-based mindfulness training in autistic adults. This study examines whether a six-week structured intervention, using a mindfulness app, lowers anxiety and stress in autistic adults. Participants were randomly assigned either to an intervention group, which started the intervention immediately, or a wait-list control group, which participated in the same intervention program six-weeks later. Findings will provide important information about the potential for remote app-based mindfulness training to lower stress and anxiety in adults diagnosed with autism.
