There are about 10004 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Brazil. 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.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical efficacy of the drug associations in the treatment of common cold
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical efficacy of the drug associations in the treatment of common cold symptoms.
This is a non-inferiority, Phase III, open-label, randomized, parallel trial to evaluate the new intervention Dapaconazole cream 2% versus Ketoconazole cream 2% in patients with Tinea pedis. Sample size is 140 participants (70 per treatment group), male or female, aged between 16 and 60 years-old. Primary objective is to evaluate non-inferiority of Dapaconazole cream 2% compared to Ketoconazole cream 2% in Tinea pedis treatment. Secondary objective is to evaluate safety and tolerability of Dapaconazole cream 2% after multiple administrations. Participants will receive either new intervention or active control during 14 consecutive days, which will be followed by 2 follow-up visits. Primary efficacy endpoint is clinical and mycological lesion cure, and secondary efficacy endpoint is time (days) until clinical diagnosis of lesion cure. Additionally, safety will be assessed by adverse events occurrence and laboratory exams evaluation.
The purpose of the study is assess whether the various forms of triple regimen of administration of treatment of Helicobacter pylori (before meals (fasting), after meals, and any independent mealtime) influence the rate of eradication of this bacterium.
The prevalence of heart diseases has increased significantly in recent years and it is a health public problem due to an increased risk of death by several reasons. A cardiac surgery is an alternative of treatment for critical injuries heart valves and coronaries arteries. Changes in respiratory system resulting from cardiac surgery are well established and include a reduced functional capacity due post-surgical pain, causing increased respiratory function and increased oxygen consumption . The exercises with the cycle ergometer in phase I of cardiac rehabilitation can improve peripheral muscle strength, functional capacity and perception of dyspnea when used postoperatively and there are speculations if an earlier carried out can contribute to a better postoperative evolution of patients, but these benefits in phase I of the Rehabilitation Cardiac are not well defined in the literature. Objective: To evaluate the exercises effects with ergometer cycle in the postoperative course of patients undergoing cardiac surgery. Method: Patients will be recruited the cardiac surgery service of Polyclinic Pato Branco in the city of Pato Branco in state of Paraná, of both sexes, appropriate for the inclusion criteria, which will be evaluated by pulmonary function tests (strength of respiratory muscles, submaximal exercise test, dyspnea scales, laboratories tests and radiological exam). All patients will be randomly assigned for one of two groups: the control group (Conventional treatment) and rehabilitation group (conventional treatment +cycle ergometer), for about 7 days at postoperative period. Patients will be reevaluated on the third postoperative day and at discharge. Clinical evolution data will be collected from the records and notes of the medical staff and monitoring physiotherapist.
This is a multicenter randomized controlled pilot trial to investigate the feasibility of a driving pressure limited mechanical ventilation strategy compared to a conventional strategy in patients without acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).
The purpose of this study is to verify if postprandial walks are effective in obese pregnant women, as regards to gestational weight gain and typical diseases of that period, as gestational diabetes and preeclampsia. Perinatal outcomes will be observed, such as macrosomia, shoulder dystocia and fetal death.
Osteopathic medicine is based on a diagnostic and therapeutic system to treat tissue mobility/ motility dysfunctions in general, using different approaches (depending on the target tissue) known as osteopathic manipulative treatment. Among all the available techniques those ones addressed to the cranial field are most questioned because of the lack of scientific evidence; but the compression of the 4th ventricle technique has been largely studied in clinical trials. Studies have shown that the technique may affect both central and autonomous nervous system, modulating some reflexes (Traube-Hering baro signal), and modifying brain cortex electrical activity through central sensitization in subjects with chronic low back pain. Thus, investigators hypothesize that the compression of the 4th ventricle may modulate peak alpha frequency (electroencephalographic assessment) and promote physical relaxation in subjects in vigil.
There is major concern regarding chemotherapy related toxicity in the group of women older than 65 years old diagnosed with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) positive breast cancer (BC). Nevertheless, these patients are at a particularly high risk of breast cancer recurrence and death. Of note, older patients may experience higher risk for Trastuzumabe related cardiotoxicity, especially when this agent is combined with an anthracycline. Recent studies have shown extremely favourable outcomes in early HER2+ BC patients treated with a combination of paclitaxel and trastuzumab, omitting anthracyclines from treatment. Investigators sought to investigate safety and outcome data on a cohort of elderly patients treated with weekly paclitaxel combined with carboplatin and trastuzumab.
Treatment of primary hyperhidrosis through a comparative study between oxybutynin hydrochloride and placebo. Hydrochloride may decrease the symptoms of hyperhidrosis improving the subject's quality of life.
