Filter by:This study is a prospective, randomized, double blind, placebo controlled, crossover clinical trial looking at whether gabapentin can provide symptom relief for chronic irritability in neurologically impaired children. The investigators hypothesize gabapentin ins beneficial and safe for children with chronic irritability that persists despite identification and appropriate management of symptom sources.
Specific immunotherapy for IgE mediated sensitization to grass pollen 4 concentrations of a modified pollen extract of Phleum pratense are applied to find out the optimum dose.
The aim of this study is to investigate the prevalence of yeast and bacteria in women with breastfeeding pain and to identify signs and symptoms.
The virtual requirement that substance abuse programs use evidence-based treatments (EBT) has prompted the development of dissemination strategies to promote EBT technology transfer. Implementation research, clinical trial training methods, and clinician training studies suggest that clinical supervision that involves direct observation, fidelity rating-based feedback, and coaching of therapeutic skills is a promising dissemination approach. However, clinical supervision delivered within substance abuse programs by on-site supervisors has never been directly tested in a randomized controlled trial to determine the impact of supervision on both clinician EBT skills and client treatment outcomes. Recent results from two NIDA CTN protocols testing the effectiveness of Motivational Interviewing (MI) have shown that community program clinicians can learn to deliver MI with fidelity when receiving MI supervision from their program supervisors after workshop training and that their implementation of MI early in treatment improves client retention and primary substance use outcomes. A MI supervision manual called MIA: STEP (Motivational Interviewing Assessment: Supervisory Tools for Enhancing Proficiency) was developed from these protocols and has begun to be widely distributed by NIDA in partnership with SAMHSA for community program use. The effectiveness of the MIA: STEP supervision approach is unknown. This study will directly test the effectiveness of MIA: STEP supervision on clinician MI fidelity and on client outcomes by randomly assigning 60 clinicians and 420 substance-using outpatients from 11 community programs within Connecticut to one of two conditions in which clinicians in both conditions will deliver a 1-session MI intervention to clients as the enter treatment. The conditions are: 1) workshop training plus MIA: STEP supervision, and 2) workshop training alone with supervision-as-usual practices used at each program. This project will be the first randomized trial to examine the impact of clinical supervision in an empirically based treatment on both clinician and client outcomes. Moreover, because it will provide workshop training and supervision completely within the context of community programs and utilize in-house program supervisors, it will provide a rigorous evaluation of a feasible model for disseminating EBTs such as MI.
In this study the investigators compare the diagnostic validity of Bedside Ultrasonography of chest and Pulmonary artery CT Angiography in the patients who came to Emergency Department of Alzahra General Hospital from 1 may 2012 to 1 October 2012 with respiratory symptoms and signs in favor of Pulmonary Thromboemboli (PTE).
The purpose of this study is to determine energy expenditure and sleep in response to protein/carbohydrate and fat ratio of the diet over a short-term and long-term period of time.
The objective of the study is to determine the safety and preliminary efficacy in patients utilizing the aura6000 System for the treatment of Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA).
The purpose of this study is to determine whether reflections of light can be used to provide real-time pictures of blood vessel formation around infants' heads. This study device is called laser speckle imaging.
The brain is such a metabolically active organ that it consumes about 20% of oxygen burned every minute by an average adult even though it only contributes about 2% of the body weight. As a result, the brain produces a disproportionately high amount of CO2 every minute in comparison with the rest of the body.
The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of the probiotic KE-99 Lactobacillus casei when administered with omega-3 fish oil on probiotic viability, fecal make-up and gastrointestinal (GI) health in healthy adults.
