Filter by:The purpose of the study is to determine physical and mental health issues of U.S. embryologists related to their occupational characteristics, and how workplace fatigue and burnout may affect their quality of life, cynicism, interactions with patients, attention to detail, and lead to human error, the cause of the most severe IVF incidents that often make headlines and result in costly litigation. It will also correlate how the current manual workflows contribute to these health issues, and what measures can be taken to improve both working conditions and embryologists' health, and, therefore, improve patient care.
Syncope is defined as transient loss of consciousness associated with inability to maintain postural tone with rapid and spontaneous recovery. The purpose of this study is to assess the effects of sublingual administration of a new medication called CPC on tilt-induced syncope in patients with a history of vasovagal syncope (VVS) or near syncope. 140 participants were randomized at the University of Wisconsin - Madison. Each participant will be in the study for 1 day.
Prospective, observational registry enrolling consecutive patients with recurrent, unexplained, traumatic syncope underwent implantable loop recorder implantation with the aim to evaluate the incidence of recurrence of traumatic syncope during follow-up.
This study was a prospective, randomized clinical trial that was conducted in adolescents (10 through 14 years of age) receiving at least one recommended intramuscularly administered vaccine to evaluate the efficacy and acceptability of using two different, simultaneously administered interventions that might prevent post-vaccination presyncope, and by extension syncope. The two interventions evaluated together were Buzzy®, which is a medical device designed to reduce vaccination pain, and an electronic game. The investigators evaluated both interventions when administered simultaneously (Buzzy® and electronic game). The investigators enrolled approximately 340 subjects into this study. Eligible adolescents were randomized (1:1) to either the intervention or control group: 1) intervention (Buzzy® and electronic game); or 2) control (usual care) to assess for acceptability and efficacy. Detailed data were collected and described from study participants including demographics, medical history, baseline generalized and state anxiety, and needle phobia. Participants were observed for 20 minutes following receipt of vaccines and reassessed for post-vaccination state anxiety, immediate and subsequent post-vaccination pain (within 1 minute and at 10 minutes), and the occurrence of witnessed syncope or presyncope, and presyncopal symptoms as rated by the modified Blood Donation Reactions Inventory (BDRI). Participants were asked to assess their acceptability of the intervention.
The LUX-Dx PERFORM Study will characterize, in a general patient population, the utilization of the remote programming feature of the Boston Scientific (BSC) Insertable Cardiac Monitor (ICM) device. The study will also collect data to characterize the performance of arrhythmia detection algorithms. Finally, data collected will be used to analyze and characterize the ICM system-related safety events.
To improve the safety of diagnosis and therapy for a set of conditions and undifferentiated symptoms for hospitalized patients, the investigators will employ a set of methods and tools from the disciplines of systems engineering, human factors, quality improvement,and data analytics to thoroughly analyze the problem, design and develop potential solutions that leverage existing current technological infrastructure, and implement and evaluate the final interventions. The investigators will engage the interdisciplinary care team and patient (or their caregivers) to ensure treatment trajectories match the anticipated course for working diagnoses (or symptoms), and whether they are in line with patient and clinician expectations. The investigators will use an Interrupted time series (ITS) design to assess impact on diagnostic errors that lead to patient harm. The investigators will perform quantitative and qualitative evaluations using implementation science principles to understand if the interventions worked, and why or why not.
The objective of the trial is to assess whether the TOOKIE vest is an effective intervention in reducing line fall out. All oncology patients with a tunneled central line will be approached to participate in this study. Following informed consent they will be issued with a TOOKIE vest.
Recurrent vasovagal syncope although presenting a benign prognosis in terms of survival, is associated with significant impairment of quality of life. The impaired emotional status is also related to the recurrence of the events, closing a negative cycle for the evolution of the disease. This study aims to evaluate the effect of psychotherapy on the quality of life and in the number of syncope and pre-syncope events during one year of follow-up of patients with recurrent vasovagal syncope.
The main objective of the BIO│STREAM.ICM France submodule is to provide clinical evidence from patients in France on safety and efficacy of the BIOMONITOR system
The aim of the submodule study is to assess whether a high BMI may influence the sensing performance and the sECG quality of the BIOMONITOR.
