Filter by:The primary objective of this study is to evaluate whether, in patients with first-ever atherothrombotic or lacunar stroke without any previous history of atrial fibrillation (AF)/atrial flutter (AFL)/atrial tachycardia (AT), the detection of AF/AFL/AT (silent or symptomatic) by using a continuous cardiac rhythm monitoring with implantable loop recorder (ILR) during the first 12 months of observation is higher than the detection by using a standard cardiac monitoring (physical exam, 12-lead electrocardiogram [ECG] at baseline, 3, 6, and 12 months and Holter ECG at 3 months) in the same period of time.
This study aims to determine the effect of therapeutic hypothermia on reducing AKI in term and late-preterm infants with hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy as estimated by measurment of serum(s) neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin(NGAL) and serum (s) cystatin-C.
This study evaluates the outcomes of stroke patients treated for intravascular thrombectomy, using either a local anesthetic with sedation, or a general anesthetic. Historical data will be used for those treated with the local anesthetic, and prospective data will be used for those treated with the general anesthetic.
Randomized, open-label safety, tolerability study with exploratory endpoints and pathophysiological evaluation of the FMT Two groups of outpatients with cirrhosis will be randomized using random sequence generator into no-treatment and FMT groups.
The Preempt study is likely to help determine the frequency of patients suffering from Minimal Hepatic Encephalopathy (MHE) and are cirrhotics. It will also enable us to know about the Quality of life of these patients.
This study will test the safety and efficacy of an infusion of a baby's own (autologous) umbilical cord blood as compared with placebo in babies born with history and signs of hypoxic-ischemic brain injury.
This study will try to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of a new method for achieving mild hypothermia, i.e.,mild hypothermia therapy through rectum. Half of participants will be treated by the widely-used hyper-hypothermia blanket method, while the other half will be treated by the investigators' new method.
The goal of this proposal is to profile the pharmacokinetics of dexmedetomidine in newborns ≥36 weeks post-menstrual age during therapeutic hypothermia for hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy.
Minimal hepatic encephalopathy (MHE) can have a far-reaching impact on quality and ability to function in daily life and may progress to overt Hepatic Encephalopathy. Patients with MHE were missed in clinical follow up and are more exposure to work accident. The aim of the present study was to assess the effects of oral supplementation of antioxidant and zinc gluconate Versus Lactulose inTruck driver cirrhotic patients with MHE.
This study evaluates hepatic encephalopathy (HE) and liver-related hospitalization rates and duration of stay in patients with HE treated with rifaximin-α 550mg compared to patients receiving other therapies. This registry study aims to comprehensively and rigorously characterize the impact of rifaximin-α 550 mg on hospitalization, clinical safety and effectiveness outcomes, and quality of life in patients with HE in Europe and Australasia.
