There are about 1933 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Colombia. 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.
A triple-arm double-blinded placebo-controlled repeated-measures randomized clinical trial in Colombian elite team-sport athletes. The aim is to evaluate the effects on strength-related parameters and body composition after eight weeks of supplementation with creatine monohydrate (CrM) and creatine hydrochloride (Cr-HCl). The study will be reported following the Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials (CONSORT) extension to Multi-Arm Parallel-Group Randomized Trials. All variables will be measured at baseline and after eight weeks.
Objetive:To determine the effects of a functional ankle instability prevention neuromuscular training (PENMT) program compared to the conventional FIFA 11+ program on the occurrence of ankle sprains, flexibility, balance and muscle activation in 17-year-old male youth soccer players to 20 years. Subjects and Methods: An experimental investigation, controlled, randomized and single-blind clinical trial was carried out in 40 subjects randomized to start the control or experimental group (soccer Players). The trial compared the effects of a differential intervention with a protocol focused on an ankle neuromuscular training program vs the usual FIFA 11+ program, in order to strengthen functional ankle stability in youth soccer in male players. In each subject, 2 measurements were taken: Pre-intervention and Post-intervention. For each measurement, a hypothesis test was performed. Results: The FIFA11+ is expressed as an injury risk factor when buying it with the PENMT after their participation. Conclusion:The neuromuscular training program for the ankle or PENMT applied in the experimental group did not generate a negative effect with respect to the FIFA 11+ program, in addition to the time of departure in the post test, the PENMT program is expressed as a protection factor of player injuries when contrasted with the FIFA 11+ program, that is, it presents effectiveness against the risk factor of functional ankle instability.
To establish the preliminary safety and effectiveness of the SEAL™ Endovascular Aneurysm Lattice System for the treatment of saccular intracranial aneurysms. The data from this study will be used to support: 1. EU CE Mark labelling 2. US FDA Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) approval support of PMA approval.
The current methods of oxygen supply administer medicinal oxygen to the patient at a constant flow. Oxygen is being delivered when the patient needs it (at inhalation) and when the patient does not need it (at exhalation and at rest) if the volume of oxygen needs to be adjusted, the clinician typically increases the rate of flow in an effort to increase the oxygen concentration in the air inhaled by the patient. This traditional way of administering oxygen is clinically effective but it also wastes significant amounts of oxygen that the patient never uses. The BUFEO system addresses this problem by altering the supply of oxygen to an on-demand delivery model, the patient receives oxygen only when needed (during inhalation) and no oxygen is wasted at rest or during exhalation. The aim of this study is to evaluate, the efficacy, tolerability, and non-inferiority in SpO2 of the BUFEO device in saving oxygen and reaching a target SpO2 rate, in comparison to the standard of care by measuring the volume of oxygen used and the SpO2 reached when administering medical oxygen with the traditional supply method and through BUFEO system to hospitalized, oxygen-dependent subjects with pulmonary pathology.
To evaluate the effect of early autonomic blockade on the consumption of remifentanil and halogenated anesthesia in the intraoperative period during laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy.
Patients in the severe stages of Chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI) are prone to amputation and death, leading to poor quality of life and a great socioeconomic burden. There is an urgent need to develop an effective therapeutic strategy to treat this disease. In this context, autologous bone marrow mononuclear cells (BM-MNC) and allogeneic mesenchymal stem cells derived from different sources have emerged as promising therapeutic approaches for this condition.
With this project, the investigators expect to standardize a reliable and optimized methodology based on a 24-hour recall tool assisted by digital photographs with a complete output of foods and nutritional information for the Colombian population.
Sleep disorders are highly prevalent all around the world and have a strong negative impact on quality of life (QoL). In Colombia, up to 60% of adults report any sleep disturbance and more than 45% have required medical assistance for this. There is abundant anecdotal and scientific evidence supporting the efficacy and safety of several plant extracts on sleep quality. In this context, the development of safe and effective natural products may have a positive impact on sleep and general QoL.
The publication of a Clinical Practice Guideline (CPG) is often not enough for its correct use in the field of health care. There are barriers to the implementation of the CPG recommendations, including those related to the lack of knowledge or skills on the part of health service providers. Strategies have been proposed to improve the implementation of the CPGs through interventions with different levels of effectiveness, such as the use of reminders, informative meetings, sending educational material, audits, among others. Some of these interventions can be carried out through Telehealth strategies, that is, with remote services. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a Telehealth program to improve the implementation of the Clinical Practice Guideline for diagnosis and preoperative, intraoperative and postoperative treatment of the amputee, the prescription of the prosthesis and comprehensive rehabilitation, through strategies to publicize the recommendations included in the CPG and train doctors, reducing the barriers related to the lack of knowledge of the CPG. For this, two groups of institutions that provide health services in Antioquia will be compared, randomized according to two interventions: the socialization of the recommendations of the CPG for amputees, against a combined strategy of education through a Telehealth platform and the delivery of educational material. Compliance with prioritized recommendations of the CPG will be evaluated, related to surgical techniques, perioperative practices, the prescription of prosthetic components and referral to services that allow the comprehensive rehabilitation of the person with amputation. Additionally, the theoretical knowledge of the doctors of each participating institution before and after the interventions will be evaluated through a written test.
Purpose: To determine the impact of SARS-CoV-2 infection and immunization on ovarian response to controlled ovarian stimulation (COS) and embryo development after in vitro fertilization (IVF) Methods: A retrospective multicentric cohort study of 427 oocyte donors was conducted between January 1st, 2018 and September 18th, 2022. Patients who recovered from SARS-CoV-2 infection, vaccinated or non-exposed were included. Demographic, cycle characteristics, and laboratory outcomes were compared.
