Filter by:The aim of the present study is to evaluate the possible effect of using dual-tDCS applied before conventional physical therapy on motor functions and hemodynamic response
Pain relief and functional impairment have been shown to remain poor to moderate over weeks after emergency department discharge, in patients who seek ED management for acute nontraumatic, nonradicular low back pain. The investigators made the hypothesis that ultrasound-guided interfascial infiltration of local anesthesics and corticoid is efficient and safe in treating patients presenting to the ED with acute non specific low back pain. The investigators aimed to compare early and short term functional impairment and pain relief one day and 1 week after interfacial infiltration, as compared to standard medical treatment
It has been demonstrated that Transnasal Humidified Rapid Insufflation Ventilatory Exchange used during preoxygenation for emergency surgery is at least equally effective as preoxygenation compared to standard tight fitting mask. Data from a recent study indicates that Transnasal Humidified Rapid Insufflation Ventilatory Exchange might decrease the risk of clinically relevant desaturation below 93% of arterial oxygen saturation. The limitations with our previous study is that it was done only during office hours (Mon-Friday 8 am to 4 pm) and that the power to detect the occurrence of desaturation was too low. Based on the above, the aim is now to conduct a clinical international multicenter study 24/7 with 450 patients and with a simplified protocol that allows the study to be done 24/7. This study is done with the aim of evaluation before implementing this novel technique of preoxygenation into clinical practice. The general purpose of this project is to compare a the preoxygenation technique based on Transnasal Humidified Rapid Insufflation Ventilatory Exchange with traditional preoxygenation with a tight fitting mask during rapid sequence induction (RSI) intubation in patients undergoing emergency surgery.
Early diagnosis of secondary infection of necrotic tissue in severe acute pancreatitis is extremely important. The investigators evaluated whether the level of soluble TREM-1 (sTREM-1) in fine needle aspiration (FNA) fluid from patients who suspected infection is a good marker of secondary infection of necrotic tissue and an indicator of the proper treatment between drainage and necrosectomy.
The study will be conducted across multiple European centres to assess the safety and tolerability of multiple doses of AZD2171 in patients with AML.
