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 Anterior Knee Pain Scale (Kujala) is a questionnaire designed to assess adults with patellofemoral disorders and is widely used in both anterior knee pain and patellar dislocation patients.The questionnaire is a patient-reported outcome measure (PROM), that was developed in 1993 and has been translated and validated into most major languages (e.g. French, Italian, Chinese, German, and Spanish) and has gained wide international acceptance. In a recent systematic review, the Kujala was among the eight most commonly used PROMS for patients with patellofemoral pain. In addition, the Kujala was used in almost 80% of studies of patellofemoral instability/dislocation. The Kujala has been widely used in Denmark during the last 15 years, but surprisingly it has not been translated and validated in Danish according to international guidelines. The translation of the Kujala into Danish will stimulate to more valid and precise results of the Kujala questionnaire in both patients with anterior knee pain and patients with patellar dislocation The aim of this study is to cross-cultural translate and adapt the Kujala into a Danish Kujala-DK. Secondarily to determine validity and reliability of the Kujala-DK in two consecutive Danish populations of patients with either anterior knee pain or patellar dislocation.
The Banff Patella Instability Instrument (BPII 2.0) is a disease-specific quality of life questionnaire designed to assess adults with patellar dislocations. As the BPII 2.0 already is cross-cultural translate and adapted to Danish the examination of the the psychometric properties of the Danish version is still needed The aim om this study is to determine validity and reliability of the Danish version BPII 2.0-DK in a Danish populations of patients with patellar dislocation.
The purpose of this project is to investigate the treatment outcome after MPFL reconstruction in children as a treatment for chronic patellar instability, where the superficial part of the quadriceps tendon is fixed to the femur with anchors. The outcome will be compared with a healthy cohort matched on age and gender.
The ENIGMA study is a single-centre prospective clinical observational study with the aim to investigate vascular contributions to cognitive decline and dementia. By studying MRI-defined capillary dysfunction and EV profiles, the ENIGMA study links novel imaging and basic research techniques to a clinical cohort of stroke patients. With this study we hope to enhance the understanding of the mechanisms behind post-stroke cognitive decline and dementia.
Patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), facing a decline in lung function and compromised quality of life, often benefit from regular exercise (1). Assessing their cardiorespiratory fitness through maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max) is crucial (2), yet research on its validity and reliability in COPD patients remains sparse. This study aims to fill this gap, examining the content validity and test-retest reliability of the VO2-max test in COPD, comparing it with healthy controls.
A randomized, single-blinded clinical pilot study to assess whether vaccination with live attenuated vaccines can induce trained immunity and cause beneficial changes in patients with COPD.
The goal of this observational study is to investigate the occurrence of hypoxemia (an abnormally low concentration of oxygen in the blood) in trauma patients within the first 24 hours of hospital admission following arrival to a trauma center. The main questions the study aims to answer are: - Do trauma patients experience hypoxemia during the initial 24 hours of hospital admission following trauma? - What is the daily distribution of potential hypoxemic episodes? The investigators expect that hypoxemic episodes will be more frequent during the night (20.00-07.59) than during the day (08.00-19.59) An additional pulse oximeter will be attached to the participants, which measures oxygen saturation in the blood during the first 24 hours of hospital admission after trauma.
The objective of this study is to examine the feasibility, acceptability, fidelity, and outcome of a nurse-led nutritional intervention for patients with leg ulcers in a outpatient clinics. The intervention consists of a structured dialogue and patient information on key lifestyle behaviours to improve wound healing. Furthermore, the intervention includes protein supplement.
Simulation based training is a standard part of surgical training. Over the years virtual reality simulator have been more and more integrated into the surgical curriculum for surgical novices. Evidence shows that practicing using proficiency-based training programs significantly reduces the operation time and complication rates for during intial operations for young doctors. The aim of this trial is to examine if skills obtained on a newer software version is transferable to the original software.
The main aim of this study is to learn if TAK-279 reduces bowel inflammation and symptoms compared to placebo. Another aim is to compare any medical problems that participants have when they take TAK-279 or placebo and how well the participants tolerate any problems. The participants will take capsules of either TAK-279 or placebo for up to 3 months (12 weeks). Then all the participants will receive TAK-279 for the rest of the treatment part of the study (1 year or 52 weeks). During the study, participants will visit their study clinic several times.
