The main goal of this study is to look at the performance of the neonatal, infant, and pediatric Philips SpO2 sensors with the Philips FAST Pulse Oximetry technology. Oxygen saturation measurements (SpO2) will be obtained via pulse oximetry and invasive arterial oxygen measurements (SaO2) will be obtained via arterial blood samples as part of your clinical care and assessed by co-oximetry. The study will aim to enroll a diverse population to help us understand the impact of skin pigmentation.
This is a randomized controlled trial investigating whether continuous oxytocin infusion in multiparous women shortens time to delivery, without altering maternal or neonatal outcomes, in augmented deliveries, compared to intermittent infusion.
This is an open-label, Phase 1/2 study to determine the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of APL-4098 alone and/or in combination with azacitidine for the treatment of relapsed or refractory (R/R) acute myeloid leukemia (AML), myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS)/AML and MDS-excess blasts (EB). Participants with the MDS-EB subtype will be eligible for the Phase 1 part of the study only.
Major risk after pulmonary embolism (PE) is recurrence, fatal in 10% of patients. Patients with PE can be stratified in 3 groups according to the risk of recurrence : very low risk, high risk or Intermediate risk. Little is known about this last group. Anticoagulation is efficient to prevent recurrence but is currently not recommended for patient with an intermediate risk of recurrence. Identifying risk factors of recurrent PE remains a major issue to identify sub-groups of patients who would require lifelong anticoagulation. In 30-40% of cases, PE patients develop residual pulmonary vascular obstruction (RPVO), which has been found to be associated with an increased recurrence risk. This last observation was mostly reported in patients with unprovoked PE (patients with high risk of recurrence) and RPVO was measured using conventional planar lung scan. In patients with an intermediate risk of recurrence, the impact of RPVO has been much less studied. In addition, the definition of RPVO was variable according to studies and correlation between RPVO burden and recurrence risk has not been clearly demonstrated. This might be explained by the inherent limitation of RPVO quantification using conventional planar imaging, which is only based on a visual estimation on 2-dimensional images. Ventilation/Perfusion Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography (V/Q SPECT/CT) is a new method of scintigraphic image acquisition that offers the advantage of 3-dimensional imaging, enabling more accurate and reproducible quantification of RPVO. The main hypothesis of this study is that in patients with PE at intermediate risk of recurrence, RPVO computed with V/Q SPECT/CT imaging may be an important predictor of recurrence.
This is a randomized, multi-center, split-hand, subject-blinded study comparing pain, safety and effectiveness of Restylane Skinboosters Vital Lidocaine and Restylane Vital without lidocaine for improving appearance of the dorsal hands in Chinese subjects.
Eating a Mediterranean-style diet during pregnancy improves pregnancy outcomes, yet most Americans who are pregnant do not follow this type of dietary pattern. There is increasing interest in Food is Medicine programs, which provides foods to patients to improve health outcomes - food provided in this context is called medically tailored meals. The research team at the UNC Center for Health Promotion and Disease Prevention is developing a Food is Medicine program to improve pregnancy outcomes and at this point the team is ready to test the program. The purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility and acceptability of a Food is Medicine intervention when started during the first trimester of pregnancy. The eating pattern to be evaluated in this study is a Mediterranean-style dietary pattern adapted for the southern United States - thus, the program is called "Med-South." All who take part will receive Med-South dietary counseling. In addition, to help participants follow a Med-style dietary pattern, one group of study participants will receive extra virgin olive oil and nuts. The other group will receive extra virgin olive oil, nuts, and frozen meals (medically tailored meals) that align with the Med-South dietary pattern. Participants will be assigned at random (like flipping a coin) to one of these groups
The goal of this prospective randomized controlled trial is to compare the effectiveness of a home-based exercise protocol to formal physical therapy in patients who have been diagnosed with Achilles tendinopathy. The null hypothesis is that there will be no difference in the treatment outcomes between patients with Achilles tendinopathy who participate in a home-based program versus patients with Achilles tendinopathy who undergo formal physical therapy. Participants will be randomized to a 12-week home-based or formal physical therapy protocol and asked to complete brief outcomes surveys at their initial visit, and at 6 weeks, 12 weeks, 6 months, and 1 year after their initial visit.
Patients were first observed for a 4-week baseline period, which required no medication adjustments and a seizure frequency of greater than or equal to 2 times per 4-week . After the baseline observation period, if the patients met the criteria for enrolment and there were no contraindications, zonisamide was added as an additional therapeutic drug.Clinical data were collected before the initiation of treatment, at 1 month, 3 months and 6 months after taking zonisamide respectively, with regular review of blood tests and urinary ultrasound, and imaging and electrophysiological examinations according to the clinical needs of the patient's actual condition.
The goal of this clinical trial is to analyse efficacy and safety of ixekizumab in participants with refractory guttate psoriasis. The main question it aims to answer is: What percentage of participants achieved more than 90% reduction from baseline in Psoriasis Area Index (PASI 90) after 12 weeks of ixekizumab treatment? Participants will receive a 12-week treatment of ixekizumab, with follow-up visits every 2 weeks during the treatment period. Keep a diary of their symptoms and Psoriasis Area Index.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the safety and efficacy of nafamostat mesylate (NM) and unfractionated heparin (UFH) in the process of renal replacement therapy (RRT) for patients suffering from sepsis associated acute kidney injury (SA-AKI). The main questions it aims to answer are: The impact of NM and UFH on platelet count in septic patients undergoing RRT treatment. The satisfaction with anticoagulation of NM and UFH in septic patients undergoing RRT treatment. The 28-day all-cause mortality rate of septic patients undergoing RRT treatment with NM and UFH. Researchers will use NM or UFH as anticoagulation during RRT in SA-AKI patients, assessing effects on platelet count, anticoagulation satisfaction, and mortality. Participants will receive NM or UFH as anticoagulation during RRT for a minimum of 7 days. Bleeding symptoms, platelet count and coagulation function will be monitored daily. Platelet changes during the 7-day treatment period and survival status at 28 days post-treatment will be recorded.
