NCT ID: NCT06113250 Active, not recruiting - Clinical trials for Extensor Tendon Reconstruction

Effect of Shortwave Diathermy Versus Ultrasound Waves on Increasing ROM and Decreasing Pain After Extensor Tendon Reconstruction

Start date: July 5, 2023
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

tendon injuries can result in long-term sequelae, including chronic pain and mobility restrictions, and may warrant surgery. Ultrasound is sound with a frequency above 20,000 Hertz (Hz) and is undetectable by the human ear. Ultrasound waves are generated by a piezoelectric effect caused by vibration of crystals within the head of the wand/probe. The sound waves that pass through the skin cause vibration of the local tissue. This can cause a deep heating locally. ultrasound can provide several benefits for treating strains, sprains, tissue healing andpain.n Shortwave diathermy is a high frequency current that is obtained by a discharging condenser through inductance of low ohmic resistance. When this high frequency current passes into the tissues, it produces heat into the tissues. PSWD heats a much larger area than ultrasound does, making it ideal to heat larger joints, such as the elbow, shoulder, hip, knee, and ankle. This work aims to compare between the effect of shortwave diathermy versus ultrasound waves on increasing ROM and decreasing pain after extensor tendon reconstruction. Sixty adults patients of both sex, aged from 20 to 30 years, with extensor tendon injuries participated in this study after reconstruction surgeries. They were randomly categorized into three groups of equal numbers. Group A received Pulsed shortwave diathermy and traditional physical therapy program (splinting, stretching exercises, strengthening exercises and range of motion (ROM) exercises), group B received ultrasound waves and traditional physical therapy program (splinting, stretching exercises, strengthening exercises and range of motion (ROM) exercises, while group C received only traditional physical therapy program (splinting, stretching exercises, strengthening exercises and range of motion (ROM) exercises). Pain and finger flexion range of motion will be measured before and after two months of intervention. Data and results will be statistically analyzed to give conclusions

NCT ID: NCT06082700 Active, not recruiting - Clinical trials for Correlation Between Missing Posterior Teeth and Vertical Dimension Cephalometric Measurements With Temporomandibular Disorders

Correlation Between Missing Posterior Teeth and Vertical Dimension Measurements With Temporomandibular Joint Disorders in a Sample of Adult Egyptian Subjects

Start date: May 30, 2023
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The goal of this observational study is to learn about the correlation between missing posterior teeth and vertical dimension cephalometric measurements with temporomandibular disorders in a sample of adult Egyptian subjects in. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Is there a correlation between missing posterior teeth and temporomandibular disorders? - Is there a correlation between vertical dimension cephalometric measurements and temporomandibular disorders? Participants will be asked for the following:- - to give their phone numbers & it will be collected through the orthodontic department patient's database ensuring complete confidentiality. - to fill Personal data chart (name, age, date of birth, mobile number, address). - to receive Clinical examination to determine number of missing teeth. - to receive Clinical examination to diagnose TMD using the DC/TMD. - to do Lateral cephalometric radiograph to measure the vertical dimension.

NCT ID: NCT06074367 Active, not recruiting - Clinical trials for Post Operative Atrial Fibrillation

The Impact of Oral Vitamin C in Prevention for Post Operative Atrial Fibrillation (POAF) in Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery (CABG) Patients

Start date: October 13, 2020
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

Post operative atrial fibrillation (POAF) is one of the most common complications that takes place worldwide after coronary artery bypass surgeries (CABG). Many studies suggest using vitamin C as an additional treatment alongside standard therapies, such as statins and β-blockers, to reduce the risk of postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) in patients undergoing (CABG). Supplemental therapy with vitamin C may provide a more robust preventive effect against POAF compared to using statins and β-blockers due to its strong antioxidant effect. This implies that vitamin C can enhance the effectiveness of those medications used for POAF prevention by decreasing oxidative stress induced by the surgery. There are conflicting data on whether or not vitamin C as an antioxidant has a protective effect against postoperative atrial fibrillation and has a significant role in shortening length of ICU and hospital stay . Even in those studies that show positive relationship of vitamin C in AF prevention, there is a diversity in the dosing regimen of vitamin C used among those previous studies. To the best of our knowledge, most researches were conducted predominantly within a single geographic region, such as Iran, this raises the concerns about the potential bias and limits our ability to apply the findings to a broader global population. Here, the investigators aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of vitamin C supplementation and to figure out which dose of vitamin C will prevent post-operative AF and decrease complications such as hospital stay, pneumonia and surgical site infection among older Egyptian adults.

NCT ID: NCT06070935 Active, not recruiting - Uveitis Clinical Trials

Nailfold Capillaroscopic Assessment in Pediatric Uveitis Patients

Start date: January 1, 2024
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Pediatric uveitis accounts for 5-10% of uveitis cases. it may be infectious or noninfectious in etiology. The etiology of noninfectious uveitis may be autoimmune. The most common causes of pediatric uveitis are idiopathic and juvenile idiopathic arthritis-associated uveitis. Uveitis morbidities in pediatric patients include cataract, glaucoma, and amblyopia. Pediatric uveitis may be accopanied by involvement of the ocular vasculature, such as retinal vasculitis. We hypothesize that there are differences in systemic microcirculation between pediatric uveitis patients and healthy pediatric controls.
