Filter by:Aim of the project is the development of a software for implementation of anesthesiology guidelines in the preoperative evaluation. The software bases on the 2014 and 2018 guidelines of the European Society of Anesthesiology (ESA) for the pre-operative evaluation of adults undergoing non-cardiac surgery. Traditional premedication is compared with the new software-guided premedication by using a cross-over design. 200 patients are included in the study, 100 of which are first evaluated the traditional way and then with the software, 100 patients are treated the other way round. Results of the two premedication methods are compared according to the primary endpoint "correct approval for OP" and the secondary endpoints number of missed apparative examinations, number of unnecessary apparative examinations, time required for premedication, length of hospital stay, mortality and postoperative complications.
CoDiAm aims to collect clinical, biological and social data of diabetic patients in French Guiana.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of training with the Gait Enhancing and Motivating System-Hip (GEMS-H) vs. training without the GEMS-H on locomotor function in adults. The investigator hypothesizes that long-term GEMS-H use would improve locomotor function. Specifically, individuals in the GEMS-H group will show faster gait speed compared to those in the control group.
The primary aim of the study is to investigate the effects of supervised exercise therapy and education on the immediate response to using a soft knee brace in patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA).
The purpose of this research is to determine if the beneficial effects of remote limb ischemic conditioning on learning seen in young adults are found in middle-aged and older adults.
The aim of this study is to evaluate if modern technology such as smartphone applications can be used to facilitate lifestyle changes and thereby improve health-related quality of life in gainfully employed persons in the general population in Stockholm, Sweden. The hypothesis is that at follow-up, the intervention group that use the new application will have improved health-related quality of life and other lifestyle habits including diet, physical activity and sleep, as well as biomarkers, compared to a control group.
This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of posterior scleral reinforcement on controlling myopia progression, including change in refraction, axial elongation as well as sight-threatening complications, in adults with high myopia. Half the adults will receive posterior scleral reinforcement, while the other half will receive no surgerical treatment.
Nowadays, eccentric exercise can be realized in a dynamic way with an ergocycle wich permits eccentric (ECC) lower limbs contractions at a defined power output. With this type of ergometer, O2 consumption (VO2) in ECC is three fold lower than in concentric (CON) for the same power output. Consequently, ECC program could be used in chronic disorders with limited capacities, such as obesity. The investigators hypothesis that an eccentric training program, as it will induce higher mechanical constraints, would improve body composition, especially by reducing fat mass. This effect could be explained by an increased rest energy expenditure and a better improvement in biological parameters (particularly lipid profile and insulin-resistance) after ECC training (versus CON training). This study aims to compare the modification of fat mass after an ECC program versus a CON program at the same VO2. The secondary goal is to assess the physiological mechanisms involved in the modification of body composition
This study aims at evaluating the efficacy of treatment with ponatinib in patients with chronic myeloid leukemia who are in a chronic phase and who previously received treatment with imatinib but resulted to be resistant to it.
This is a multicenter, multiple dose, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, Bayesian adaptive, dose response study in subjects with chronic insomnia. Subjects will be randomized to 1 of 6 doses of E2006 (1 mg, 2.5 mg, 5 mg, 10 mg, 15 mg, or 25 mg) or placebo.
