There are about 9403 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Switzerland. 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 will collect information on side effects and how well Esperoct® (turoctocog alfa pegol (N8-GP)) works during long-term treatment (prophylaxis) in males with haemophilia A. Participants in this study will get the same treatment as they would normally get, if they were not participating in the study. All visits at the clinic are done in the same way as participants are used to, when visiting their doctor. During visits at the clinic participants might be asked for some relevant tests if considered useful by the study doctor. During the visits the study doctor might ask if participants had any side effects since the last study visit. Participants will be asked to note down in their own diary the number of bleeds and how these were treated, as well as their regular prophylaxis. Participation in the study will last for about 5-7 years, depending on when participants join the study. Participants are free to leave the study at any time and for any reason. This will not affect their current and future medical care.
The Geneva Canton organized the health crisis of the COVID-19 epidemic around the care of COVID patients at the University Hospital (HUG), by moving the care of non-COVID patients to private hospitals of the canton. The COVID epidemic appears to have been associated with a decrease in consultations and care for non-COVID patients. An excess of morbidity and mortality (non-COVID) would be possible during or after the epidemic in connection with this "under-medicalization" of non-COVID patients. The aim of this study is to measure and analyze the impact on the morbidity and mortality of inpatients during and after the COVID-19 epidemic in the adult inpatient wards of HUG and township hospitals / clinics.
Multi-center, prospective, randomized controlled study comparing PCI guided by angiography versus iFR Co-Registration using commercially available Philips pressure guidewires and the SyncVision co-registration system, employing an adaptive design study for interim sample size re-estimation.
The study will consist of two parts: - In Study A, objectively assessed physical activity, gait, balance, range of movement of specific joints during walking and neurophysiological findings between patients with cervical spine stenosis (CSS) without myelopathy who will be treated conservatively and patients with stenosis and signs of myelopathy who are candidates for surgical Treatment will be compared. - In Study B, the 6-month changes in the same outcomes in patients treated conservatively (from the first specialist consultation until 6 months later) and in patients treated surgically (preoperative day and 6-month post-operatively) will be quantified.
The study is an observational analysis of patients' medical data recorded in a large-scale register, both retrospective (for patients operated and data recorded before 2018) and prospective (for data collected after 2018) in nature.Patients' medical data contained in the register will be analysed to determine the efficacy of the treatments they received during their follow-up at the investigation centre.
The confirm the performance and safety of the eyeWatch System as first-line filtering surgery and compare its outcomes to trabeculectomy
The aim of this quality control study is to compare two different techniques to determine ESBL-producing E.coli transmission.
This study collects data on microbiological, genetic and environmental factors, as well as lung function parameters (e.g. spirometry, body plethysmography, lung-MRI) to assess the complex interaction of predisposing risk factors for impaired lung development and respiratory diseases.
The project examines the hypothesis that monoclonal allergen-neutralizing antibodies can be recombinantly produced from B lymphocytes isolated from pollen allergic patients. Patient samples suitable for antibody cloning are selected based on seroprofiling for the respective allergens. The study aims at isolating lymphocytes from patients with potential allergen-neutralizing IgG in serum and to clone antibodies from antibody gene sequences obtained from B cells of those patients.
The DERIVATE study was conceived to integrate the information resulted from clinical data, transthoracic echocardiography, and cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging to provide a more reliable risk stratification in patients affected by heart failure (HF) and worthy of prophylactic implanted cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) therapy. The main purposes of this multicenter registry are to: 1) determine CMR findings, and specifically late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) features, T1 mapping, and extracellular volume (ECV) that predict sudden cardiac death (SCD) and ventricular arrhythmia; 2) provide a comprehensive clinical and imaging score that effectively improves the selection of patients who deserve a prophylactic ICD therapy; 3) evaluate the contribution of machine learning to predict major adverse cardiac events (MACE) as compared to standard clinical scores.
