There are about 28871 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Canada. 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 objective of this study is to calibrate the blood pressure measurements of the Pulsewave Health Monitor (PAD-2A) device to be within 5±8 mmHg of the average of the dual-observer measurements via an aneroid sphygmomanometer (reference device), as per the methodology described in the ISO 81060-2: AMD_2020 protocol.
The study aims to investigate the olfactory TDI score (Threshold, Discrimination, Identification) using the Sniffin' sticks test for patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) on dupilumab. Twenty-seven adult patients will be followed up during the treatment with dupilumab on three visits to the Otolaryngology Clinic (Baseline, 3 months and 6 months). The primary endpoint will be the TDI score. Nasal polyp score, Quality of Olfactory Disorders - negative symptoms (QOD-NS symptom scores), SNOT-22 will be secondary endpoints.
Radiological and lung function recovery following Covid-19 infection.
The purpose of this study is to calibrate the average breathing rate measurement of the PAD-2A device to be within ±2 breaths per minute of clinical capnography breathing rate measurements.
To analyze Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) in the breath of patients with SARS-CoV-2 and controls in SARS-CoV-2 breath specimens.
This clinical trial examines whether intravenous preoperative administration of tranexamic acid (TXA) before arthroscopic rotator cuff repair (ARCR) can improve arthroscopic visualization during the procedure.
This is a Phase 2 multicenter randomized (2:1), placebo-controlled trial to evaluate early signs of efficacy of allogeneic, umbilical cord-derived (UC) mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) in patients with COVID-19 and Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS). Randomized participants (N=54) will receive 3 daily doses of up to 90-million cells/unit dose (cumulative dose of up to 270 million UC-MSCs) or blinded placebo. The MSC product will be provided as 2.5 million cells/ml suspended in PlasmaLyte A containing 5% Human Albumin. The appearance-matched placebo product contains the same excipients, PlasmaLyte A and 5% Human Albumin, as the UC-MSCs.
The VACCIN box, an anti-aerosol intubation box for potential use on COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2) positive patients, was designed in order to reduce the transmission risk to healthcare workers. This study will compare the safety and the ease of use of the VACCIN box to a standard intubation in healthy participants undergoing elective surgery. It is expected that intubation times and success rate of intubation in the same circumstances will be similar with and without the use of the VACCIN box.
Tyrosine Kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have become standard of care in patients with EGFR mutations in non-small cell lung cancer and other EGFR-mutated cancers. However, TKIs are well-known to cause cutaneous adverse events, including acneiform eruptions. Moderate to severe acneiform eruptions are often associated with severe pruritus and pain. Current treatment recommendations rely on expert consensus. Moderate and severe reactions requiring systemic therapy, usually tetracycline antibiotics or isotretinoin. No randomized trial has compared the relative effectiveness of tetracyclines versus isotretinoin. The objective of this unblinded, randomized trial is to compare tetracyclines to isotretinoin for treatment of moderate to severe acneiform eruptions in cancer patients on tyrosine kinase inhibitors. The primary aim of this clinical trial is to elucidate which systemic treatment is more effective in clearing acneiform eruptions caused by TKIs. The results of this study will add to the literature in this field and will aid in developing evidence based clinical guidelines.
The LEADR study is designed to assess the safety and efficacy of the Next Generation ICD lead. The LEADR LBBAP study is being conducted under the existing US FDA Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) for the Next Generation ICD Lead and is designed to confirm the safety and defibrillation efficacy of the Next Generation ICD Lead when placed in the LBBAP location in ICD and LOT-CRT patient population.
