Filter by:The purpose of this study is to evaluate the healing rates of wounds treated with various wound care regimens including antiseptic wound wash, topical antibiotic treatment, adhesive bandages, and/or hydrocolloid bandages.
The purpose of this study is to stimulate the circuits in the spinal cord that are directly responsible for hemodynamic control to restore hemodynamic stability in participants with chronic cervical or high-thoracic spinal cord injury. The ultimate objective of this study is to provide preliminary safety and efficacy measures on the ability of the hemodynamic Targeted Epidural Spinal Stimulation (TESS) to ensure the long-term management of hemodynamic instability and reduce the incidence and severity of orthostatic hypotension and autonomic dysreflexia episodes in individuals with chronic cervical or high-thoracic spinal cord injury. In addition, the long-term safety and efficacy of TESS on cardiovascular health, respiratory function, and quality of life in participants with chronic spinal cord injury will be evaluated.
The on-boarding of unregulatable trauma in the United States has reached 20%, which is 1/5 of the population. A population of this magnitude, by definition has now reached an epidemic classification. The population with chronic illness as stated: PTSD, Chronic Depression, MS, HIV, and SARS-CoV-2- Long Haulers Syndrome. These chronic conditions/illnesses many lead to death and are often the cause or perpetuate unregulated trauma and create an unstable population. Psychiatrists have testified before congress that the SSSRI medications are not fully functional cures and are not working for patients. Enchanced Psilocybin micro-dosing at the levels of 0.15g. ranging to 0.33g. every other day an 0.50g. for monthly maintenance of neural pathway production is proving to shave back the highjacked nervous system, thus stopping or rerouting the ruminating neurotransmitters, by rerouting thru new neural pathways. The body has a additional natural pathway in place then to decrease/stop these thoughts by have open pathways to process the thought differently. Serotonin is a neurotransmitter and which is the most famous of all the neurotransmitters. Serotonin is very similar in its compound structure to the plant medicine family of psilocybin, serotonin and psilocybin work very similarly with the 5h2A receptor in the human cortex ( the outer cortex of the brain ). Enhanced Microdosing of psilocybin at the levels of 0.15 to 0.33 and of 1 gram to 1.5 grams monthly for maintenance of the newly opened neural pathways is postulated to be a mental health game changer. Psilocybin helps shave back the highjacked nervous system which is a condition known as the diagnosis (SSD) Somatic Symptom Disorder. This research is believed accurate by proof on previous studies to process the subconscious held in the subconscious and shave back the somatic feelings resulting from the trauma of the individuals who have on-boarded chronic disease(s) of Trauma,PTSD, Unregulated Chronic Depression, MS, Cancer, HIV, and SARS-CoV-2- Long Haulers Syndrome.
The aim for surgical treatment of unstable Tile B2 & C1 pelvic ring injuries is an anatomical reduction to allow early weight-bearing, pain relief and to prevent future pelvic asymmetry. So, we usually used combined posterior & anterior ring fixation, relying on the fact that anterior pelvic ring adequate reduction and fixation better augment posterior ring fixation and enhance overall pelvic stability. However, anterior ring fixation requires a second incision with a longer operation time and more blood loss. The main disadvantage of the second incision is the higher risk of wound infection, either superficial or deep, which questions its necessity and raises concerns about the possibility of isolated posterior ring fixation in managing Tile B2 & C1 pelvic ring injuries with good outcomes. The fundamental algorithm was the questionable need for additional anterior ring fixation in managing Tile B2 and C1 pelvic ring injuries combined with posterior ring fixation, whether the incidence of postoperative complications, radiological and clinical outcomes differed between these two groups. After reviewing the literature, we found a lack of knowledge in the prospective assessment of such outcomes between the two fixation groups. So, This RCT aims to reach a satisfactory result and prove or deny the questionable need for anterior ring fixation in managing Tile B2 and C1 pelvic ring injuries. Our hypothesis was that PR fixation is at least as good as APR fixation.
Whiplash injury is very common and lot of patients which suffered the injury have chronic symptoms despite different treatment options. One of main symptoms include muscle spasm and pain caused by neck movement. Diazepam is a well known drug which can be used to treat muscle spasms. The aim of this study is to determine whether short term Diazepam therapy can have positive effect on long term outcomes after whiplash injury.
The BEAM study is a multicenter, prospective, observational study in children supported on extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). The primary goals of this study are to develop and refine a brain injury multimarker panel for accurate neurologic monitoring at the bedside and early classification of mortality and disability outcomes of critically ill children supported on ECMO.
The Synchron Motor Neuroprosthesis (MNP) is intended to be used in subjects with severe motor impairment, unresponsive to medical or rehabilitative therapy and a persistent functioning motor cortex. The purpose of this research is to evaluate safety and feasibility. The MNP is a type of implantable brain computer interface which bypasses dysfunctional motor neurons. The device is designed to restore the transmission of neural signal from the cerebral cortex utilized for neuromuscular control of digital devices, resulting in a successful execution of non-mechanical digital commands.
Sternal Wound Infection (SWI) in open heart surgery is one of the most annoying and avoidable complications that one encounters during work. Investigators investigate the rates of sternal wound infection (SWI) in patients in whom were used locking compression plates (LCP) versus in patients in whom were used wires to fixate the sternum for variable causes. SWI increases the overall cost and burden in the medical service and increases the patients suffering and disability. investigators aim to provide our patients with the most suitable means for sternal fixation.
The research aimed to predict postoperative acute kidney injury in patients with acute type A aortic dissection preliminarily by exploring the correlation of preoperative cystatin C level and incidence of postoperative acute kidney injury and combining with relevant risk factors.
Introduction Patients with severe brain injury are often restricted to bed rest during the early period of brain injury which may lead to unwanted secondary complications. There is lack of evidence of when to initiate the first mobilisation. The Sara Combilizer® is an easy and efficient tool for mobilising patients with severe injuries, including brain injury. Through a randomised cross-over trial the investigators will investigate the impact of early mobilisation on patients with severe acquired brain injury caused by traumatic brain injury, subarachnoid brain injury or intracranial haematoma. The investigators hypothesise that mobilisation using the Sara Combilizer® does not affect partial oxygenation of brain tissue.
