There are about 11304 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Denmark. 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 aim of the study was to examine the detection rate and tumor size evaluation in patients with suspected oropharynx cancer using a new technique with transoral ultrasound of the oropharynx. The new technique was compared to Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). The study investigators included patients referred to a tertiary head & neck cancer center in Copenhagen, Denmark, with suspicion of oropharynx cancer. Patients supplied written informed consent and were included and ultrasound scanned with local anesthesia in the outpatient clinic. Blinded assessment of MRI's was performed for tumor detection and compared to ultrasound with the reference standard being histopathology biopsy results.
Prone position ventilation was used 220 times in 44 out of 68 patients with severe COVID-19 induced ARDS treated with VV-ECMO. PPV treated patients did not benefit from PPV and the incidence of PPV related adverse events was high
Two-arm parallel-randomized pilot study and to collect data at the Department of Geriatric Medicine at Aalborg University Hospital. The aim is to assess the feasibility of a future randomized controlled study comparing Danish versions of 3D-CAM and 4AT in an acute medical setting. The primary objective is to assess 1) feasibility of obtaining informed consent and recruiting older adults within 24 hours of admission (or surgery) at the Department of Geriatric Medicine, Department of Acute Medicine, or Department of Orthopedic Surgery. Secondary objectives are 2a) to compare feasibility of recruitment and testing in the three different departments, 2b) to inform a preliminary evaluation of validity and reliability of the Danish version of screening instruments, and 2c) to obtain data on variance to support calculating sample size for a full-scale RCT.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the mechanistic anti-propulsive effects of opium tincture on the gastrointestinal tract of a cohort of patients with chronic diarrhea
Recommendation for fluid fasting is two hours prior to anaesthesia, however, less may be acceptable. The current study compares ingestion of 175 ml ice water prior to elective gastroscopy vs. standard fasting on gastric residual volume.
This study aims to investigate whether octreotide, a medication used off-label to treat chylothorax, has a direct effect on human lymphatic drainage. To study the effects of octreotide, the researchers conducted a pre-clinical experiment using human lymphatic vessels mounted in a myograph chamber and a clinical experiment in which a double-blinded, randomized, cross-over trial was conducted in 16 healthy adults. The results of the study will be used to determine the role of octreotide in the treatment of chylothorax and other lymphatic disorders.
The 16-week trial is an open-label cross-over trial which includes heamodialysis patients with T2D and T1D on insulin therapy. During one period, patients carry a non-blinded CGM. In the other period they follow standard procedures (the last two weeks with a blinded CGM). The patients and the dialysis staff can use the CGM measures to regulate insulin and food intake during the non-blinded weeks. The research group will collect the CGM-data during the trial.
The purpose of this clinical study is to test whether patients with fish or shellfish allergy can ingest different types of fish oil supplements without having an allergic reaction. To achieve this, the recruited participants will be asked to: - provide a blood sample (used for Basophil Histamine Release Assay) - undergo a skin-prick-test - partake in multiple oral provocations These three tests will indicate the likelihood that the participants can consume fish oil supplements without adverse allergic reactions (See the detailed description for an explanation of the tests). The investigators will test the participants tolerance for three different types fish oil supplements: Fish oil, Cod liver oil, and krill oil.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the feasibility, fidelity and acceptability of an 8-week high intensity online physical exercise combined with online group meetings and supported with an activity tracker in individuals with type 2 diabetes. The design of the intervention will be developed using a co-creation approach. The intervention consist of eight weeks of 30 minutes online physical exercise followed by 30 minutes of online group meeting in Microsoft Teams once a week. Outcomes includes pre-defined research progression criteria and secondary outcomes of physical and mental health and participant feedback.
Using a new device, the TrachFlush, the aim of this pilot study is to investigate whether secretions can be removed at the patient's current ventilator settings, or whether pressures and durations considered at the maximal end of clinical practice are required, so as to push secretions around the cuff. The study is a pilot study to investigate the settings required to ensure clinical efficacy of the technology, prior to large scale clinical studies.
