Filter by:This study aims to analyse baseline data on IS in order to monitor the possibility of increased risk of IS in children aged <12 months after introduction of the Rotarix vaccination in Japan.
This prospective study aims to estimate the incidence of intussusception among children < 2 years old through hospital-based surveillance in Singapore.
The stapled transanal rectal resection (STARR procedure) is an effective treatment for obstructed defecation syndrome (ODS) caused by intussusception and rectocele. Recently a new technique has been developed using the new Contour® TranstarTM stapler, which was specifically designed to facilitate the STARR procedure. The investigators would like to evaluate the morbidity and quality of life.
GSK Biologicals' rotavirus vaccine, Rotarix™ has been recommended for universal use targeting infants through the Expanded Program on Immunization (EPI) in Mexico. This protocol describes a Phase IV safety study in Mexico designed to further evaluate the safety profile of Rotarix™ with regard to intussusception (IS). The data generated by this study will be useful for public health officers and policy makers in confirming the safety profile of Rotarix™.
This study aimed to evaluate the safety and symptomatic outcomes achieved with Stapled Transanal Rectal Resection (STARR) compared to biofeedback training in patients with obstructed defecation syndrome (ODS).
This is an epidemiology study designed to implement hospital-based active surveillance for intussusception (IS) in children <1 year of age and lower respiratory tract infection (LRTI)-related deaths among children between 29 days and 1 year of age in Mexico. An existing linked database of the "Instituto Mexicano del Seguro Social (IMSS)" will be used. The study described in this protocol is a pilot study, which will evaluate the methodology to be used in a later Post-Marketing Surveillance (PMS) study. The planned epidemiology study will be conducted in IMSS hospitals and potentially use the IMSS database to re-capture potential cases of IS and fatal cases and as a source of matched case controls. The purpose of this project is to complement this data link system with an active surveillance system for IS - in order to assess the feasibility of using the IMSS data system by generating results that provide scientific validity. Such comprehensive (passive and active) surveillance systems will facilitate the post licensure safety profile evaluation of vaccines such as a vaccine against rotavirus diarrhoea. The Protocol Posting has been updated in order to comply with the FDA Amendment Act, Sep 2007.
The primary purpose of this study is to determine how effective and how durable STARR (stapled transanal rectal resection) surgery is in relieving symptoms of intractable constipation associated with obstructive defecation syndrome (ODS).
