The study will be a multi-center, triple-blinded, cluster randomized controlled trial (c-RCT) conducted with a three-arm parallel design and a 1:1:1 allocation ratio. The experimental groups will consist of two arms: the intervention group, where patients will receive training in relevant pressure injury care bundles, and the placebo group, where patients will receive training in an irrelevant topic like respiratory care. Both intervention and placebo groups will receive specialized pressure injury prevention (PIP) care bundle from trained wound specialist nurses (WSNs). The third arm will be the control group comprising patients who do not undergo any training course and will receive only routine standard care for PIP care bundle. The aim of c-RCT will be to compare the incidence of hospital-acquired pressure injury (HAPI) in the three study groups and to provide detailed evidence on the effect of the developed pressure injury care bundle, administered by WSNs on the development of HAPI in trained hospitalized patients, as opposed to those receiving routine standard care for PIP care bundle without training.
Ulcerative colitis(UC) is one of the two main forms of inflammatory bowel disease(IBD), which seriously affects the quality of life of patients. Previous studies have demonstrated that more than 60% of IBD patients have sleep disorders, which is emerging as an important risk factor for disease recurrence and poor prognosis. However, the mechanisms by which sleep disorders regulates the occurrence and development of IBD remain undefined. This study aims to explore the clinical characteristics of ulcerative colitis patients with sleep disorders based on the microbiota-gut-brain axis, to analyze the effects of sleep disorders on autonomic nervous function, gut microbiota, and metabolites in UC patients.
1. Study the distribution of peripheral blood T lymphocyte subsets among ulcerative colitis patients. 2. Correlation of T-cell subsets to therapeutic response/ disease activity. 3. Assess the value of circulating IgG anti-Integrin αvβ6 in UC.
To evaluate the possible efficacy and safety of mebendazole in patients with ulcerative colitis treated with mesalamine
This study aims to compare the functional and surgical outcomes of Ulcerative Colitis (UC) patients undergoing Transanal Transection and Singl-Stapled (TTSS) versus Double-stapled Ileal Pouch-Anal Anastomosis (IPAA)
This study aimed to determine the effect of pressure ulcer care package use on the risk of pressure ulcer development due to surgery in patients undergoing orthopedic surgery. It was planned as a randomized controlled study. The population of the study will consist of patients who underwent surgery in the Orthopaedics and Traumatology Clinic of Doğubayazıt Dr.Yaşar Eryılmaz State Hospital Hospital Hospital of Ağrı Provincial Health Directorate. The sample of the study will consist of patients who volunteered to participate in the study that meets the inclusion criteria. To obtain research data, the Personal Information Form developed by the researcher in line with the literature, 3S Operating Theatre Pressure Wound Risk Assessment Scale, Pressure Wound Regions and Stages Monitoring Form prepared according to NPUAP (2016) Pressure Wound Staging System Form will be used. Statistical analysis of the data obtained from the study will be performed using the SPSS 25 (Statistical Package of Social Science) package program.
Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) can progress to critical limb ischemia (CLI) of the affected lower limb, characterized by pain at rest, ulcerations or gangrene, with a high risk of amputation. In this phase, the best treatment is arterial limb revascularization, but this is not always possible or even effective for promoting pain relief, healing of ulcers or preventing amputations, in addition to the high socioeconomic cost caused by the disease. Recent advances in cell therapy represent a promising supporting alternative for the treatment of PAD in cases where conventional alternatives have run out. Objective: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of cell therapy with expanded autologous mesenchymal stem cells in the treatment of patients with PAD with CLI and chronic arterial ulcers. Methods: An open randomized clinical study will be performed with 2 groups of 20 patients with CLI: in group 1, a fragment of abdominal fat tissue (10g) will be collected to obtain mesenchymal stem cells, which will be expanded and applied using subcutaneous perilesional injection in the affected lower limb, in addition to the application in the form of a personalized curative biological on the wounds. Group 2 will receive conventional treatment with a Hydrogel dressing with essential fatty acids. Periodic clinical evaluations, complementary exams and photographic record will be carried out. The main outcome of effectiveness will be partial or total wound healing. Safety outcomes will be monitored for infections, gangrene, amputations and deaths. Participants will be monitored for 120 days. Major amputation cases will not be included. An independent external evaluator and blind to the groups will evaluate the results. It is an innovative procedure with high impact and financial return for SUS, in view of the high prevalence of the disease and the high socioeconomic impact of the disease when it progresses to limb amputation.
Foot ulcers and amputations are a common and feared complication for people with diabetes. People with a diabetic foot ulcer have a higher risk of dying within five years than people with diabetes without an ulcer. At least one in four people with a new diabetic foot ulcer will die within five years, largely due to cardiovascular causes. The reasons for this increased mortality involve decreased mobility. People with a recently healed diabetic foot ulcer are considered "in remission" as opposed to "cured" because the underlying medical problems which led to their ulcer are still present. Once in remission, the current standard of care is to slowly increase ambulation. The problem is that people rarely return to the recommended level of mobility. The ability to safely maintain mobility with aging is critical. This pilot study is a small clinical trial to test the feasibility and acceptability of a home-based exercise regimen. The investigators will also assess if this home-based exercise regimen can increase mobility and function without increasing diabetic foot ulcer recurrence by improving lower extremity strength, lower extremity tissue perfusion and glycemic control.
The project aims to implement the Internet Of Thing (IoT) platform of the San Raffaele Hospital (OSR) with data from stress conditions perceived by the patient through the synergistic collaboration between patients, gastroenterologists and psychologists.
