There are about 25560 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Germany. 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.
We aimed to establish current practice of correct application and interpretation of the PLR in critical care patients.
The emotion Egg, or "eEgg" for short, is a sample series of a device for testing a new pain measurement method that is not yet on the market. The aim is to investigate whether the trial device and the eEgg method (eEgg plus software) are suitable for supporting, improving or even replacing the communication between doctor and patient, which still takes place via the numerical rating scale (NRS) and the pain diary. Issues of acceptability in comparison to the pain diary and the NRS are to be considered. Measurements should be recorded in real time; no orientation to the previous value is possible for the patient.
The Disrupt PAD III study was designed as a randomized controlled trial (RCT) with an additional observational registry component. The registry, referred to as the Disrupt PAD III Observational Study (PAD III OS), was a global, prospective, multi-center, single-arm registry of the Shockwave Peripheral Intravascular Lithotripsy (IVL) System. The objective of this study was to assess the real-world acute performance of IVL in the treatment of calcified, stenotic, peripheral arteries that may not qualify for inclusion in the RCT. The study was designed to enroll a maximum of 1500 subjects from up to 60 global sites with a minimum of 200 subjects treated with the S4 IVL catheter, a line extension designed to treat smaller diameter peripheral vessels, including calcified below-the-knee (BTK) lesions. Subjects were required to have target lesions in the iliac, femoral, ilio-femoral, popliteal, or infra-popliteal arteries with at least moderate calcification as determined by the investigator, defined as calcification within the lesion on both sides of the vessel assessed by angiography. Adjunctive therapies such as atherectomy, specialty balloons, and stents were allowed. Subjects were followed through discharge.
The primary working hypothesis of this study is whether wrist arthrodesis leads to an improvement in functional status in both rheumatoid arthritis and post-traumatic osteoarthritis. Functional status will be measured by Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (DASH) questionnaire no earlier than 1 year after surgery.
The objective of this study is to provide a comprehensive analysis of various time intervals (1:1). In addition to evaluating the time interval until delivery after completion of induction, the study also aims to investigate the rate of vaginal births and the type of combination therapy used (including the method of implementation and subsequent induction).
This study aims to confirm the perioperative and early postoperative safety and clinical performance (efficacy) of the Dexter Robotic System, in patients undergoing primary transperitoneal unilateral or bilateral inguinal hernia repair.
This study will evaluate and characterize people who are taking Intuniv, analyze prescribing behaviors of physicians, and determine whether Intuniv was correctly prescribed in Belgium, Denmark, Finland, Germany, Ireland, Netherlands, Norway, Spain, Sweden, and the United Kingdom.
Comparsion of the current two available TEER systems, the MitraClip with the PASCAL repair system in terms of their effectiveness and safety in patients with degenerative mitral regurgitation (DMR) and in patients with functional regurgitation (FMR), who were referred for an interventional therapy by the heart team due to a high surgical risk profile.
The aim of the following study is to investigate which is the best region of interest (ROI) for a functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS)-based neurofeedback (NF) training for highly-impulsive individuals (and consequently also patients with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, ADHD): the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) or the inferior frontal gyrus (IFG). Generally, NF trainings aim to improve the neurophysiological as well as cognitive-behavioral deficits observed in many neuropsychiatric disorders and were shown to constitute an effective complementary treatment option for patients with ADHD. Some previous studies used the DLPFC as a ROI for NF training, while others focused on the IFG as the main target region. However, so far, no study has directly compared the effectiveness of NF trainings targeting the DLPFC vs. IFG using the same protocol or the specificity of regulation efforts between these two areas using fNIRS. Therefore, the aim of the current study is to compare the effectiveness of fNIRS-NF using the DLPFC as a ROI with fNIRS-NF using the IFG as a ROI in a randomized controlled study design with highly-impulsive, healthy participants. Furthermore, the investigators aim to test the effect of fNIRS-NF training in the context of stress. Previous studies reported that there is a strong connection between ADHD and stress. However, the effect of fNIRS-NF training for the adaptation to stressful situations is uncertain. To this end, the investigators will assess the brain activity of participants before and after an fNIRS-NF training period during performance of a Go/NoGo task, an n-back task and The Trier Social Stress Test (TSST). It is hypothesized that both trainings will be successful in reducing impulsive behavior; however, in the pre/post testing, specific effects of fNIRS-based NF of the DLPFC are expected on working memory function and of fNIRS-based NF of the IFG on inhibitory control (Go/NoGo task). Correlations between both functions and impulsive symptoms will give an indication which training ROI may be more promising for the treatment of (specific subgroups of) ADHD. Correlations between regulation of different training ROIs will indicate the specificity of feedback regulation of circumscribed cortical areas.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and systemic exposure (in a subset of patients) of topical administration of 1% GPB in adolescents with severe primary axillary hyperhidrosis.
