There are about 21071 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Spain. 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.
Surgical site infection (SSI) is the second cause of healthcare-associated infections (HAIs). Its appearance increase mobidity and post-operatice hospital stays, increasing costs aswell, although its one of the most preventable HAI. The diagnosis and detection of SSI is usually carried out late by non-especialists once the patient has consulted to the emergency services or primary care with an already obvious infections. This raise both the direct and indirect costs and saturaties the emergency department and primary care, while delays treatment and increase disconfort and morbidity. A smart phone aplication (RedScar© ) was developped in order to detect and monitor wound infection remotely based on an automated algorithm with no medical intervention.This app allows the patient to upload a photography and answer a short questionary, the aplication will then give a diagnosis of possible infection and recommendations. This study is the first one to use a smartphone-based automatic aplication on real patients to diagnosis wound infection . This is a prospective, single-institution not randomized quasy-experimental study protocol. The study design and protocol were reviewed and approved by Research Ethics Committee of the Balearic Islands (CEI-IB). This paper is part of the R+D+i Project PID2020-113870GB-I00- "Desarrollo de herramientas de Soft Computing para la Ayuda al Diagnóstico Clínico y a la Gestión de Emergencias (HESOCODICE)", funded by MCIN/AEI/10.13039/501100011033/.
A parallel group, randomized controlled trial to compare the effectiveness of an eight-week Nordic walking program plus three educational sessions and usual care in contrast to three educational sessions and usual care in patients with asthma. The researchers hypothesize that Nordic walking program plus educational sessions and usual care is superior to educational sessions and usual care in terms of exercise tolerance, physical activity, asthma and symptoms control, dyspnea, lung function, handgrip strength, quality of life, quality of sleep, rate of medication intake, treatment adherence, and healthcare use in patients with asthma
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term safety of GT005 in participants with Geographic Atrophy (GA) secondary to AMD who have been treated in an antecedent study.
The study will assess safety and performance of MINIject implant in patients with open-angle glaucoma uncontrolled by topical hypotensive medications in conjunction with cataract surgery.
An Open-label Extension Study to Evaluate Long-term Efficacy and Safety of Odevixibat (A4250) in Children with Biliary Atresia
Retrospective collection of data from medical records, multicenter, post-market clinical follow-up study.
New extended depth of focus intraocular lenses (IOLs) are being used in a broader spectrum of patients than trifocal IOLs. The purpose of this study is to evaluate visual improvement after cataract surgery in patients with glaucoma or ocular hypertension undergoing simultaneous cataract surgery with i-Stent implantation with the implantation of a Vivity IOL. Results will be compared with a group of glaucoma or ocular hypertension undergoing isolated cataract surgery with Vivity implantation, as well as with patients with no pathology undergoing cataract surgery and Vivity implantation
The PROFUGO study (PRedictive Model for the early diagnosis of anastomotic leak after esophagectomy and gastrectomy) is proposed as a prospective and multicenter study at spanish national level that aims to develop, with the help of artificial intelligence methods, a tool and predictive model that allows identifying cases with a high risk of anastomotic leak (AF) and/or major complications through the analysis of different clinical and analytical variables collected during the perioperative period of patients undergoing esophagectomy or gastrectomy. 2.-HYPOTHESIS Early identification of patients at high risk of developing AF and/or major complications after esophagogastric surgery can be carried out through the perioperative study of objective clinical variables and analytical markers. 3.-OBJECTIVE The main objective of the study is to design a predictive model based on clinical and analytical variables that allow the identification of patients with a high risk of anastomotic leak (main variable) and/or major complication during the postoperative period of esophagogastric surgery. 4.-MATERIAL AND METHODS - DESIGN: Prospective and multicenter study of 1 year duration. - STUDY POPULATION: Patients diagnosed with neoplasia of the esophagus or stomach with an indication for oncological surgery with curative intent. - INCLUSION CRITERIA: patients with surgical indication and curative intention due to esophagogastric neoplasm who do not meet exclusion criteria and recruited by hospitals nationwide that decide to participate in the study. - EXCLUSION CRITERIA - Patients under 18 or over 85 years - Patients with chronic infections - Patients with synchronous tumors in other locations - Patients with autoimmune disease - Patients who die in the operating room - Patients who do not sign the informed consent to participate in the study - Patients in clinical stage IVB - Surgical resection R2 (there are macroscopic remains of the tumor in the surgical field after performing the resection of the surgical piece) - Combined intraoperative resection of other organs - Surgeries without anastomosis - MONITORING: The patient will be monitored during the first 90 postoperative days. 5.-DURATION OF THE STUDY The time for the inclusion of patients in the study will be 1 year in each center from the incorporation of the first of their patients.
ONCOFIT is a randomized clinical trial with a two-arm parallel design aimed at determining the influence of a multidisciplinary prehabilitation + postoperative program on post-surgery complications in patients undergoing resection of colon cancer. This intervention will include supervised physical exercise, dietary behavior change, and psychological support comparing its influence to the standard care.
A randomized, crossover and controlled clinical trial will be developed in 23 individuals to evaluate the postprandial effect of consuming snacks rich in vegetable and animal protein compared to a high-quality pork sausage
