The practice of intubation and extubation is not without risks to the anesthesiologists. Especially, the face of health care worker is the body part most commonly contaminated by splashes and sprays of body fluids. The aim of this study is to determine the incidence of unrecognized exposure to the anesthesiologists' face during endotracheal intubation and extubation. We will perform face shield swab before and after the endotracheal intubation and extubation. All swabs will be cultured for 48 hours and the number of colony forming units before and after the procedures (intubation/extubation) will be compared.
The primary objective of this non-interventional study (NIS) is to evaluate changes within 3 months in quality of life according to health status evaluated with the COPD Assessment Test (CAT) in COPD patients who have recently switched (within one week) from tiotropium monotherapy (Spiriva® Handihaler®) to dual therapy with tiotropium bromide plus olodaterol (Spiolto® Respimat®), in the Greek private and public sector pulmonary offices and clinics.
Retrospective observational study that aims to collect real world data on the cetuximab plus paclitaxel regimen as first line treatment for recurrent and/or metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN). Assignment of a patient to a specific therapeutic strategy has been already decided in the past according to normal routine clinical practice; the decision to prescribe a specific treatment (between January 2012 and December 2018) was clearly dissociated from the decision to include a patient in the present study. The investigators will retrospectively collect the information for 500 patients diagnosed with recurrent and/or metastatic SCCHN treated with a cetuximab plus paclitaxel regimen as first line for unresectable recurrent and/or metastatic disease, starting treatment with the defined cetuximab plus paclitaxel regimen, in 20 hospital members of the "Grupo Español de Tratamiento de Tumores de Cabeza y Cuello (TTCC)", who express consent to participate in the study or have not explicitly withheld consent for use of their data. The information from the patients' medical records will be collected through the online database of the TTCC Group.
This is prospective observational study of long-term pathogenic treatment of Elizaria® in patients with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria.
Introduction: Complex abdominal aortic aneurysms (CAA) are defined as abdominal aneurysms that are anatomically unsuitable for a standard endovascular repair because of a short infrarenal neck or no infrarenal neck. These CAAA are usually treated either by fenestrated endovascular aortic repair (FEVAR) or open repair (OR). Data comparing these thechniques remain scarce, mainly consisting of systematic reviews based on retrospective studies. Although mid-term and long-term results remain uncertain, FEVAR has gained widespread acceptance in the vascular community. However, this practice is not evidence base. Beyond clinical results, whether FEVAR is cost-effective or not is not demonstrated. A randomized controlled trial comparing FEVAR and OR is unlikely to be conducted since centers have developed specific expertise and practice, and most of surgeons are not keen to randomize patients. Thus, we believe that a prospective comparative multicentric cohort, with a propensity score and minimization of selection, classification and confusion bias is the most realistic way to provide reliable comparative data on cost effectiveness of FEVAR and OR. Overall, 382 patients are expected to be included (159 in each group). Objective: The objective of this prospective non-randomized comparative multicenter cohort study is to compare the cost effectiveness incremental ratio at 36 months of FEVAR and OR for CAAA. Method: Patients with CAAA discussed for FEVAR or OR in 37 french vascular centers in during a two years inclusion period constitute the population study. Preoperative and postoperative clinical and imaging data will are collected prospectively in eCRF forms. QOL before and after treatment is assessed by the E5D5L. The follow-up period is three years. The primary outcome is the Incremental cost-utility ratio (cost/QALY) at 36 months. We plan to minimize indication biases by using a proposensity score (proposnsity score maching and Inverse probablility of treatment weighting) based on clinical and anatomic characteristics. Patient at prohibitive risk for OR are excluded. Patient anatomically unsuitable for FEVAR are also excluded . Conclusion: This study should provided valuable data on cost effectiveness of FEVAR for CAAA. Sub-goup analysis will be also conducted.
The objective of the study is to determine the impacts of a 2-week relaxing music intervention on stress, anxiety, and gut symptoms in individuals who regularly perform structured aerobic exercise. Gut symptoms like bloating, reflux, cramping, nausea, etc. are relatively common during prolonged aerobic exercise. In addition, previous research has established that levels of anxiety and stress are associated with a higher occurrence of these gut symptoms. Relaxing music has reduced anxiety in certain populations, but currently, no studies are available on its effects on anxiety, stress, and gut symptoms in people who regularly do aerobic exercise.
To evaluate pharmacokinetic profiles of Viproof Film Coated Tablets 300 mg manufactured by Yung Shin Parm. Ind. Co., Ltd., Taiwan and Viread Tablets manufactured by Patheon, Inc. in terms of plasma concentrations of tenofovir after a single oral dose of 300 mg tenofovir disoproxil fumarate in healthy subjects under fasting conditions.
GNE myopathy is a distal myopathy that is thought to be caused by a mutation in the GNE gene that encodes an enzyme in the biosynthetic process of aceneuramic acid (typical sialic acid). The investigators will examine the efficacy and safety of aceneuramic acid (SA-ER tablets) 6g daily for 48 weeks in patients with GNE myopathy in a placebo-controlled, double-blind, controlled trial.
