There are about 59 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Bahrain. The country of the clinical trial is determined by the location of where the clinical research is being studied. Most studies are often held in multiple locations & countries.
This study aimed to To investigate the effect of empowerment-based interventions (EBI) on self-efficacy and self-care capacity among adults with Sickle Cell Disease (SCD). The hypotheses of this study were: Adults with SCD who receive EBI exhibit higher self-efficacy, self- management capacity and HRQoL than those who do not.
The purpose of this study is to collect information on the: - general information of a group of people such as their age, sex - clinical information of the patients such as any other illness before having COVID 19. - the number of COVID-19 patients who meet and follow the most up to date World Health Organization (WHO) recommendations for medication to treat COVID-19 (such as version 14, published 10Nov2023) compared to Kingdom of Bahrain national recommendations - adult COVID-19 patients' health care resource use and outcomes within the 28-day period In adult patients with COVID-19 who have been prescribed nirmatrelvir and ritonavir treatment. This study will be conducted in the Kingdom of Bahrain. The study will capture information of the adult COVID-19 outpatients and inpatients who have been prescribed nirmatrelvir, ritonavir treatment and those not treated with nirmatrelvir, ritonavir. This study will have about 3000 patients treated with Paxlovid™ therapy and 1000 were not. The study will involve collection of patient information from medical records. The information collected can be either from papers or from computers. The study will include patient information of those who: - had COVID-19 infection during the study period from 16 February 2022 to 30 November 2022. - are 18 years of age or older. This study will help to inform decision-making on use of Paxlovid at the national level.
This interventional randomized control trial aim to determine efficacy and safety of Oral pregabalin in improving after surgery pain control in patients undergoing total knee replacement surgeries under regional anesthesia. We'll compare the efficacy of pregabalin between two groups, pregabalin group and control group on the basis of their opioid consumption after knee operation.
Prospective, randomized, case-controlled trial study. Observation post-operatively: Aims: This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of the caudal block CB with other methods of postoperative pain release.
Caudal epidural block CEB is the most commonly performed neuraxial block to provide effective pain relief and analgesia in patients undergoing infra-umbilical pediatric surgery. This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of adding CEB to general anesthesia in terms of intra- and post-operative pain management. Design: Double-unblinded. Prospective. randomized. Study, Setting: salmanyia medical complex. intraoperative, postoperative recovery room Methods: A total of 72 patients American Society of Anesthesiology physical status classification ASA 1. Patients were equally allocated into two groups Group A and with CEB and Group B without CEB, aged two months to six years. respectively, over a study period of six months. Both groups were compared based on hemodynamic stability, level of sedation, analgesia need, pain score, and parental satisfaction. Postoperative pain was evaluated by four different pain scales.
Background: Ventilator associated pneumonia (VAP) is a recognized healthcare-associated infection in lungs parenchyma that occurs in patients in which they are connected to mechanical ventilator. And this infection will occur after completing 48 hours of connection to the ventilator. Aim study aims to evaluate the effect of implementing VAP prevention bundle training program on nurses' knowledge and compliance among nurses in intensive care unit in Salmaniya Medical complex in Bahrain. Methodology: A quantitative quasi- experimental study was conducted in the main ICU of Salmaniya Medical complex in Bahrain. Purposive sampling technique was used, and 58 ICU staff nurses were enrolled at data collection period. Tools used for data collection was a self-administrative questionnaire to assess ICU nurses' knowledge and observational checklist was used to assess their compliance. Data were analyzed with descriptive and inferential statistics
The United Arab Emirates (UAE), the Kingdom of Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, and Qatar have authorised sotrovimab for emergency use. Local experience among physicians include recent successful COVID-19 vaccine pivotal studies supported by the authorities' willingness to expedite understanding of the role of monoclonal antibodies such as sotrovimab in the management of COVID-19 and expertise to integrate the latest knowledge into the local or regional COVID-19 management guidelines. The aim of this study is to collect local clinical evidence for sotrovimab effect in the real-life setting in the UAE and the Kingdom of Bahrain. Overall study population is 20,000 and the duration of the study will be approximately six months from recruitment date.
The study is intended to estimate the proportion and clinical management of people with type 2 diabetes having atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases or who are at high risk to develop atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases. Participants will be asked to give information about their health. Partipants will continue normal way of life and will not get any medication other than those prescribed to them by the doctor. The study will last for about 6 months.
Early identification of a patient with infection who may develop sepsis is of utmost importance. Unfortunately, this remains elusive because no single clinical measure or test can reflect complex pathophysiological changes in patients with sepsis. However, multiple clinical and laboratory parameters indicate impending sepsis and organ dysfunction. Screening tools using these parameters can help identify the condition, such as SIRS, quick SOFA (qSOFA), National Early Warning Score (NEWS), or Modified Early Warning Score (MEWS). The 2016 SCCM/ESICM task force recommended using qSOFA, while the 2021 Surviving Sepsis Campaign strongly recommended against its use compared with SIRS, NEWS, or MEWS as a single screening tool for sepsis or septic shock. We hypothesised that qSOFA has greater prognostic accuracy than SIRS and EWS (NEWS/NEWS2/MEWS).
This is a multicenter, prospective, single-arm observational non-interventional study (NIS), which will be conducted in various countries in the Middle East and India.
