This study is observational, multicenter and prospective study for surveillance of the use of new antibiotics in pediatrics for treated pediatrics infections due to multi-resistant bacteria
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate effects of consecutive Yellow and Red Light Emitting Diode photobiomodulation in dry age-related macular degeneration (AMD). The main questions it aims to answer are: - Is Yellow and Red Light Emitting Diode photobiomodulation effective in decreasing drusen volume in patients affected by dry AMD? - Does Yellow and Red Light Emitting Diode photobiomodulation increase visual acuity and contrast sensitivity in patients affected by dry AMD? Participants will be randomly assigned to a treatment or a sham group. Treatment consists in two cycles with two phases each: - 1st phase: 300 seconds of continuous Yellow light with eyes closed + 60 seconds of pulsed Yellow light with eyes opened; - 2d phase: 300 seconds of continuous Red light with eyes closed + 60 seconds of pulsed Red light with eyes opened. Cycle 1 consists of 8 sessions (two PBM per week for 4 weeks) and cycle 2 consists of 6 sessions (two PBM per week for 3 weeks). Researchers will compare patients in the treatment group to those in the sham group to evaluate differences in objective signs and subjective symptoms of dry AMD.
The study was a prospective, multicentre, randomized parallel controlled clinical trial. Randomisation was conducted by central randomisation, with random allocation codes generated by the main central computer. Enrollment was conducted by competition between different centres. In this study, the coronal, apical and angular deviations (mean, standard deviation, median, quartiles, minimum, maximum, 95% confidence interval) of the static template and dynamic navigation group guided implant placement were calculated. The data is proposed to be analysed using a mixed linear effects model.
The goal of this [ randomized clinical trial] is to [effect of different head positions on the incidence of postoperative sore throat ] in [patients with endotracheal intubation ]. The main question it aims to answer is: the rate of postoperative sore throat will be reduced or not with the patients' head position changed during intubation.
Background The chronic oroantral fistulas (COAF) is an epithelized communication that is formed between the squamous epithelium of the oral cavity and the pseudo-stratified columnar ciliated epithelium of the maxillary sinus with a high recurrent rate. The use of palatal flaps has been documented for treating such fistulae. The presence of the oroantral fistula at the area of second molars or maxillary tuberosity could complicate the use of the palatal rotational flap where the arch of its rotation is increased leading to compromised blood supply. The use of the buccal flap is not advocated because it is very thin. Rationale Double or triple-layer closure is indicated to avoid recurrence of the COAF. Different layers have been documented to minimize the risk of recurrence and reinforce buccal flaps. The oral tissues at the oral side of the oroantral fistula could used as an additional layer with buccal advancement flap and buccal fat to omit the use of palatal flap with its subsequent problems in the most posterior aspect of the maxilla Study objectives Therefore, this study will be conducted to evaluate the use of hinge flaps to reinforce the buccal advancement flap for surgical closure of the COAF in the most posterior area of the maxilla Methods The hinge flap will be performed at the oral side of the COAF to close the perforation in the sinus membrane. The oral side of the COAF will be closed with buccal advancement flap. The success rate, recurrence, time of surgery, postoperative complications, will be evaluated.
To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the developed and produced CT image-assisted detection software for focal liver lesions before being put into the market.
The main purpose of this study is to create a longitudinal cohort of those with Sickle Cell Trait (SCT) to better understand the hematologic phenotype for those that carry HbS, assess for differences in those with varying quantities of HbS and assess for potential clinical complications of SCT.
Every professional working in the medical field may encounter medical errors and patient safety issues during their careers. Wu, et al. He coined the term 'second victim', which was used for the first time in 2000. In a patient safety incident, the patient is the first to be affected, while the second to be affected are the healthcare professionals (physicians, assistants, nurses, and medical staff) who are the potential causes of the incident and who are adversely affected by the consequences of this incident. That is, secondary victims are characterized as healthcare professionals who are involved in unexpected adverse patient events and experience occupational or psychological difficulties. Almost half of healthcare professionals have been reported to experience the second victim phenomenon during their professional careers. Medical errors or adverse events can deeply affect healthcare professionals and have long-term effects, leading to permanent consequences. In the medical field, identifying the origins of errors plays a vital role in preventing future errors. Second victims can encourage constructive change by not only criticizing the healthcare system but also contributing to the improvement of healthcare institutions. Burlison and his team developed and validated a tool they called the "Second Victim Experience and Support Tool" (SVEST) to understand the coping process of second victims and identify necessary support resources. Koca and colleagues conducted a validation study of the translation and psychometric evaluation of the SVEST (T-SVEST) in Turkey. Our study aims to evaluate the secondary victim experience of anesthesiologists and the quality of support resources.
The objective of this clinical trial is to understand the determinants and opportunities for acceptance of immersive technologies to support physical, cognitive, and social health and the possibilities for "aging well" among the new generation of older adults. The main questions it aims to answer are: - What are the needs and expectations in terms of immersive activities and intervention methods according to age? - Do different game modes influence the needs and expectations in immersive activities of this population? 50 participants will be asked to complete a preliminary questionnaire about their activity habits and preferences. They will then be invited to participate in individual or multiplayer virtual reality game trials, a post-trial discussion about their experience and a questionnaire completion.
This study is a collaboration between the University of Utah and Castleview Hospital in Price, Utah. Buprenorphine is a medication approved by the FDA to treat Opioid Use Disorder (OUD). Castleview Hospital currently does not prescribe buprenorphine in the emergency department (ED) instead it refers patients to outside addiction treatment facilities. This is a service focused project which the University of Utah will provide mentoring and education to Castleview in implementing an in ED buprenorphine/naloxone distribution program along with referral to continued services. After the program has been implemented, the investigators will evaluate it using quantitative surveys of program participants and qualitative interviews of hospital staff and stakeholders.
