There are about 2320 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Chile. 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 primary objectives of the study were: - To assess the safety profile of each dose of the study product after each and any administration in all infants and toddlers regardless of baseline serostatus. - To characterize the Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) A serum neutralizing antibody responses to the study product in each vaccine group after vaccination in RSV-naïve participants. The secondary objectives of the study were: - To quantify the amount of vaccine virus shed by each participant by baseline serostatus. - To determine the proportion of vaccinated infants and toddlers in each vaccine group infected with the vaccine virus at D56 (56 days after vaccination 1) for Cohorts 1, 2, 3 and 4, and at Day 84 (28 days after vaccination 2) for Cohorts 2 and 4 by baseline serostatus. - To characterize the RSV A serum neutralizing antibody responses to the study product in each vaccine group after vaccination in RSV-experienced participants. - To characterize serum RSV anti-F immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibody responses to the study product in each vaccine group after vaccination by baseline serostatus. - To characterize serum RSV antibody responses (RSV A-neutralizing and anti-RSV F IgG) to the study product in each vaccine group after the RSV surveillance season or at least 5 months after the last vaccine administration by baseline serostatus.
This randomised trial aims to assess the role of sildenafil in improving oxygenation amongst hospitalised patients with COVID19.
The pressure on care and the demand for critical decision-making generated by the current SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) pandemic, together with the situation of extreme social alarm and the adverse conditions in which care work must be promoted at this time, draw an extreme scenario in which action is urgently needed to alleviate emotional overload, acute stress reactions and other affective pathologies or psychosomatic reactions that may eventually lead to post-traumatic stress situations. This eventuality is being observed massively among professionals from different groups and levels of responsibility. In the case of healthcare personnel, it should be added that the care of non-COVID19 patients (of all pathologies and conditions) is clearly compromised and it is up to the professionals as a whole to make critical decisions and exercise a professional practice that is radically different from what has usually been done, which may require the application of undesirable triage criteria that are difficult for everyone to assume. Healthcare professionals and other essential personnel for healthcare and social-healthcare work (including personnel from external companies) are being subjected to emotional tensions and extraordinary, high-intensity work demands. Without professionals who feel supported and with moral strength, care will be even more compromised. The current scenario makes us think of many critical situations that are occurring as a result of the overload experienced. It is essential to act in order to counteract the devastating effect of this health crisis on health professionals and those who support them in their care work.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of the intensity of Isometric Contraction of shoulder external rotators, comparing the effect of a high-level IC (80% maximal voluntary isometric contraction) versus a low-level Isometric Contraction (20% maximal voluntary isometric contraction) on pain intensity, pain thresholds, and function in chronic pain shoulder patients.

The present study aimed to investigate the effects of a single nutritional preventive session previous to a critical period linked to fat gain in university students with overweight and obesity, emulating a nutritional session of a public health system.
This study aims to determine the efficacy of MAGO (Online Self-care Training Program for Psychologists), a person-directed, individual, occupational intervention via videoconference in six sessions on a weekly basis. By promoting self-care behaviors, it is expected to reduce burnout levels and to increase work engagement in clinical psychologists working in Chile.
Gastrointestinal abnormalities are present in more than 80% of critical patients, and their management has taken an important importance in intensive care unit (ICU), since it can largely determine the clinical outcome, costs and long-term prognosis in This group of patients. Only the constipation in the critical patient has been related to the failure of weaning of the mechanical ventilator, an increase in mechanical ventilation time, and with the increase of the stay in the ICU. In general, most critical health conditions cause a decrease in the motility of the gastrointestinal tract that intrinsically can contribute to constipation. This is explained by the increase in pro-inflammatory cytokines, increased activity of the sympathetic system, the use of vasopressors, high and prolonged doses of opiates, among others, which can reduce gastric emptying and delay motility. These gastrointestinal abnormalities may be associated with an increase in intra-abdominal pressure, reduced nutritional intake, bacterial hyperproliferation in the digestive tract, intestinal mucosal injury and bacterial translocation through the injured and / or inflamed mucosa. In addition, patients who experience constipation often have gastroparesis and paresis of the ileum, conditions that hinder the progression of nutritional support enterally and worsen the patient's clinical picture. In spite of being quite common in the ICU, the impact is not known in depth, which implies that these alterations are usually not prevented and on the other hand when treating their pharmacological and non-pharmacological management is highly variable because, for a On the other hand, staff turnover (intensivist physician) and on the other hand because there are no protocols that reduce these problems. To provide comprehensive care in critical patient units, according to the best available evidence in order to reduce the variation in daily care, clinical guidelines and protocols are applied to manage the various specific problems that affect this group. of patients One way to address the complexity of these problems is through the implementation of care packages, which have taken relevance in the prevention of characteristic events of high mortality and morbidity. It is in this scenario, where the clinical pharmacist plays an important role in the development of protocols, packages and their compliance. The clinical pharmacist is dedicated to the review of the therapy of each patient, through pharmacological conciliation actions with the attending physician, actively participating in the daily round of the multidisciplinary team and at the same time developing "professional support activities" that include , reviews of adverse events associated with medications, education, auditing, research, development of guidelines and institutional protocols for the use of effective and safe medications, with the objective of reducing mortality and its associated costs, thus improving the quality of the Attention. Given the importance of the problem, it is that this work proposes that the implementation and active dissemination of a constipation bundle/protocol guided by a clinical pharmacist ensures adherence to the strategy in the treatment team and a decrease in the incidence of constipation in the critical patient of the ICU of a university hospital. To fulfill this objective, a quasi-experimental study was designed in which the first stage will be diagnostic observational and a second part of the interventional type, in order to evaluate the effect of adherence to the bundle/protocol on the incidence of constipation in critically ill patients admitted to a ICU of a university hospital for a period of 6 months.
This is an efficacy and safety study of olaparib alone or in combination with bevacizumab being compared to bevacizumab with a fluoropyrimidine in participants with unresectable or metastatic colorectal cancer who have not progressed following first-line induction. The primary hypotheses are: Olaparib + Bevacizumab is superior to a fluoropyrimidine + Bevacizumab with respect to progression-free survival (PFS) using Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors version 1.1 (RECIST 1.1) as assessed by blinded independent central review (BICR); Olaparib is superior to a fluoropyrimidine + Bevacizumab with respect to PFS using RECIST 1.1 as assessed by BICR. As of amendment 5 study enrollment is being discontinued and study participants randomized to one of the two experimental arms (olaparib plus bevacizumab or olaparib monotherapy) must discontinue study intervention. Participants who are still on study treatment will no longer have tumor response assessments by BICR.
This project seeks to know the prevalence of mental health problems among undergraduate students, through internationally and nationally validated screening instruments. The project also aims to understand better the associated factors contributing to the mental health problems of this population. Through the critical analysis of the results, our proposal aims to establish the prevalence of anxiety, depression, suicidality and substance use, and the association with socioeconomic features, academic stress, sense of belonging to the university, interpersonal relationships, and sleep habits among other factors. Once finalized the study, the results obtained will be disseminated to the university community and published in peer-reviewed journals. The results will help the university authorities to design and implement measures to prevent mental health problems in this community.
