Filter by:The aim of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of an randomised-controlled trial to investigate the efficacy of liquid probiotics to prevent or reduce mucositis and infection in children diagnosed with cancer who are undergoing treatment with regimes likely to cause mucositis.
This study aims to develop new assays for synovial fluid analysis able to improve diagnosis of prosthetic joint infections. In particular, use of synovial calprotectin as marker of infection, confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) analysis and methods to assess antimicrobial susceptibility will be evaluated in synovial fluids collected from patients with septic and aseptic failure of the prosthetic implant.
Stoma reversal is associated with high incidence of post-surgical complications, including Surgical Site Infections (SSI). Negative Pressure Wound Therapy (NPWT) has been successfully applied to surgical wound management, reducing the SSIs incidence. This is a randomized open-label trial to assess the efficacy of NPWT in decreasing the rate of SSI after stoma reversal.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the level of relief perceived by patients using medicated footbath/footwash with or without an oral medication for the treatment of podiatry issues.
To investigate the diagnostic accuracy of procalcitonin as an early predictor of infection after radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer.
Expanded access may be provided for cefiderocol for qualified patients who have limited treatment options and are not eligible for a clinical trial.
This study is designed to gather information about knowledge of pediatric dentistry interns towards infection control procedures in pediatric dental clinics, also about their attitude towards the rules and guidelines of infection control, and finally their practice to these guidelines to achieve the ultimate infection control in pediatric dental clinics.
The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of non-adjuvanted and adjuvanted monovalent VEE VLP Vaccine in healthy adults (ages 18-50 years) when administered via intramuscular (IM) injection at escalating doses of 2 μg, 10 μg, and 20 μg as a 2-dose primary series (Day 0, Day 28) with a Day 140 booster dose. The secondary objective of the study is to evaluate immunogenicity of the vaccine at the aforementioned time points
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of the Target Enriched Multiplex (TEM) polymerase chain reaction (PCR) platform for the rapid molecular diagnosis and treatment of odontogenic deep space neck infections.
Emergency departments (ED) are becoming increasingly over-crowded, with patients facing prolonged waiting times. Therefore, a safe and rapid assessment that identifies patients with low severity that could be treated as outpatients is essential for improving the workflow within the ED. The rationale of this IDEAL study is to provide guidance to safely decrease the number of hospital admissions through identification of low risk patients with the biomarker MR-proADM. This will be tested in a pilot study first.
