Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effects of minimal enteral nutrition (MEN) on mesenteric blood flow and oxygenation with Doppler USG and Near Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS) during therapeutic hypo¬thermia (TH) in babies with hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy. The main question it aims to answer is: 1- How do the mesenteric blood flow and oxygenation get affected with MEN during TH? Participants will be either fed with MEN during TH or given placebo.
PROMISE aims at identifying novel diagnostic and prognostic circulating biomarkers for patients with acute stroke and at informing on crucial yet undetected pathophysiological mechanisms driving outcome after stroke by enriching all phenotypic information available from clinical routine with in-depth quantification of the circulating proteome and metabolome as well as other entities.
The goal of this observational study is to compare the differences in the features of cerebral multifrequency EIT(cMFEIT) images between healthy subjects and patients with brain diseases and to explore the possibility of applying multifrequency EIT to intracranial abnormality detection.16 healthy volunteers and 8 patients with brain diseases were recruited as experimental subjects, and the cerebral EIT data of 9 frequencies in the range of 21 kHz - 100 kHz of all subjects were acquired with an EH-300 MFEIT system.
The transition period to full oral feeding in infants with perinatal asphyxia is important in predicting long-term outcomes. The transition to independent oral feeding is accepted as a discharge criterion by the American Academy of Pediatrics, and the long transition from tube feeding to oral feeding prolongs the discharge process. Prolonged transition to oral feeding increases maternal stress as it delays gastrointestinal problems, mother-infant interaction and attachment, as well as increasing health expenditures. Due to long-term feeding tube use; Infection, leakage, delay in wound healing, trauma caused by repeated placement, as well as oral reluctance are observed. In asphyxia infants, in whom oral-motor dysfunction is common, the transition to oral feeding takes a long time and tube feeding support is required. The effect of hypothermia, which is a general therapeutic intervention that reduces the risk of mortality and morbidity in infants with asphyxia, on oral feeding has been previously studied and shown to have a positive effect. They also found that MR imaging in infants with asphyxia and the need for gastrostomy and tube feeding in those with brainstem involvement were associated. Various interventions that affect the transition to oral nutrition positively and shorten the discharge time are included in the literature. Stimulation of non-nutritive sucking (NNS) is the most frequently preferred method among these interventions. It has been shown in studies that there are no short-term negative effects of NNS stimulation with the help of a pacifier or gloved finger, and some clinical benefits such as better bottle feeding performance, acceleration of discharge and transition to oral feeding. The effect of the NNS stimulation method, which has been shown to be effective in preterm infants with large-scale randomized controlled studies, is not known exactly. The aim of this study is to examine the effect of NNS stimulation applied to oral feeding, feeding skills, weight gain and discharge in asphyxia infants receiving hypothermia treatment.
In a randomized, placebo-controlled trial, 35 patients with HIBI were randomly designated to receive either MLC901 or placebo capsules over six months. We evaluated patients in two groups by modified Rankin Scale (mRS) and Glasgow outcome scale (GOS) to examine their state of disability and recovery
The purpose is to investigate if different microparticles and markers of hemostasis predict outcome after TIA or ischemic stroke and to study the association between these variables and stroke subtype or etiology.
Historically, CKRT and hemodialysis were performed in small infants and newborns with devices developed for adults with high rates of complications and mortality. We aim to retrospectively report the first multicenter French experience of CARPEDIEM® use and evaluate the efficacy, feasibility, outcomes, and technical considerations of this new device in a population of neonates and small infant. Compared to adult's device continuous renal replacement therapy with an adapted machine allowed successful blood purification without severe complications even in low birth weight neonates.
Remote Ischemic Conditioning has never been studied in neonates with HIE. However, RIC has been studied in animal models of perinatal asphyxia and has shown encouraging results. In neonatal rats with HIE, RIC is associated with reduced sensory motor deficits compared to non-RIC, and repeated cycles in three consecutive days is superior to a single treatment. In piglets, four cycles of 10 minutes of bilateral hindlimb ischemia immediately after bilateral common carotid occlusion results in reduced cell death in the periventricular white matter and internal capsule. These preclinical studies support the hypothesis that RIC may be beneficial in infants with HIE.
A prospective, randomized comparative study where investigators present results of off pump bidirectional Glenn operation done using either a venoatrial shunt or external shunt to decompress superior vena cava during clamping.
A randomized positived-controlled study of Diterpene Ginkgolides Meglumine Injection (DGMI) vs Ginaton in patients with ischemic stroke (IS) was conducted between7/2013 and 4/2014. The study was designed to test efficacy of DGMI for IS. Post hoc analysis of this trial was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of DGMI in elderly (agedā„65 years) IS patients.
