Filter by:The primary objective of this study is the evaluation of risk factors associated with orotracheal intubation in blunt chest trauma patients not intubated on the field and not fulfilling the criteria for intubation based on the Glasgow Coma scale score with the building of a predictive score based on those findings taking into account the clinical, laboratory and radiologic tests performed within 6 hours from hospital admission.
The goal of this clinical trial is to validate the efficacy of a Brain-Computer Interface (BCI)-based intervention for hand motor recovery in subacute cervical spinal cord injured (SCI) patients during rehabilitation. The study will provide evidence for the clinical/neurophysiological efficacy of the BCI intervention as a means to promote cortical sensorimotor plasticity (remote plasticity) and thus maximize recovery of arm functions in subacute cervical SCI. Participants will undergo an extensive clinical, neurophysiological, neuropsychological and neuroimaging assessment before and after a BCI training based on motor Imagery (MI) of hands. The intervention will be delivered with a system that was originally validated for stroke patients and adapted to the aims of this study. Researchers will compare the BCI intervention with an active MI training without BCI support (active comparator).
The goal of this prospective cohort study is to evaluate, in pediatric patients after cardiac surgery, the predicting capability of biomarkers for acute kidney injury. The main questions it aims to answer: - The predicting capability of acute kidney injury (AKI) biomarkers for the primary endpoint: the occurrence of AKI stage ≥ 1 within 48-h after intensive care unit (ICU) admission. - The predicting capability of AKI biomarkers for the secondary endpoint: the occurrence of AKI stage ≥ 2 within 12-h after ICU admission. - Investigated biomarkers include urine chitinase 3-like protein 1 (uCHI3L1), urine neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (uNGAL), tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases-2 (TIMP-2), insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 7(IGFBP7), NephroCheck® and Δ serum creatinine [postop-preop]. Differences in concentration between patients with and without AKI development were investigated, as well as AKI diagnostic performance of (combined) biomarkers. During and after cardiac surgery several blood and urine samples will be taken of participants to investigated AKI occurrence and to measure biomarker concentrations.
Determine the feasibility, practicality, and early efficacy of a TeleRehab program (ICARE) to improve outcomes for persons with traumatic brain injury (TBI) in recognizing and responding to others' emotions alongside their care partner (CP).
This topic will focus on the following questions: 1. Part one: To clarify the relationship between preoperative frailty and myocardial injury (cTnT ≥0.03) after non-cardiac surgery in elderly patients; To further explore the predictive factors of myocardial injury after non-cardiac surgery (MINS) in elderly frail patients before operation. 2. Part Two: To explore the effect of low-dose esmolol on myocardial injury after non-cardiac surgery in frail elderly patients.
This study aims to evaluate among trauma patients with hemorrhagic shock the clinical impact of hemostatic resuscitation between whole blood vs. blood components therapy in the following outcomes in a hierarchical analysis: mortality at 28 days and evolution of organ dysfunction.
This investigation is a randomized pragmatic trial of a brief stepped care intervention delivered from an acute care medical trauma center that may both reduce the symptoms of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and diminish emergency department health service utilization.
This is a double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group study designed to assess the tolerability and efficacy of fsCBD and bsCBD, compared to a placebo control, to improve cognition and traumatic brain injury-related symptoms. If eligible for the study, subjects will be randomized to receive one of the conditions for 12 weeks.
A prospective, multi centre, interventional, non-comparator, open label study to demonstrate the efficacy, performance and safety of ConvaFoam™ Silicone, ConvaFoam™ Border and ConvaFoam™ Non-Adhesive dressings in the management of surgical and traumatic wounds
The main purposes of this study are to (1) measure the effect of CBD on pain symptoms, pain intensity, pain unpleasantness, and skin sensitivity to hot and cold temperature; and (2) measure the effect of CBD on brain electrical activity with electroencephalography (EEG).
