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.
The objective of this project was to compare the immediate antimicrobial effect and in situ substantivity of a new 0.20% chlorhexidine (CHX) gel and cymenol with the current CHX gel formulation on dental plaque biofilm and salivary flora up to 7 hours after a single application.
This prospective, observational cohort study investigates heart rate variability (HRV) monitoring using the Analgesia Nociception Index (ANI) monitor in adult patients undergoing major surgery within a multimodal rehabilitation program. The objective is to correlate HRV indices with functional capacity, physiological reserve, and frailty during the prehabilitation phase.
The objective of this experimental study is to determine if the application of a nursing educational intervention reduces the anxiety of patients who are going to undergo treatment in the hyperbaric chamber. The researchers will compare the nursing educational intervention with the usual practice that is currently carried out in the unit for patients who are going to begin treatment in the hyperbaric chamber. Participants will: - Receive explanatory information through a camera triptych when the treatment is indicated. - Come half an hour before the first session to receive a nursing educational intervention, with audiovisual support, on the operation of the camera.
The study aims to evaluate the tolerability and acceptance of two compounded formulations of hydrocortisone prepared in the Vall d'Hebron University Hospital (VHUH) Pharmacy Service: one, an oral suspension and the other, chewable tablets prepared using a volume dosing device (M3DIMAKER 3D printer). The main goal is to enhance patient care and adherence among pediatric patients. This prospective, experimental study employs a randomized, crossover design and will take place solely at VHUH. Approximately 25-30 eligible patients diagnosed with adrenal hyperplasia, isolated primary adrenal insufficiency, or panhypopituitarism will be recruited. Each patient will receive each hydrocortisone formulation for a period of 3 months, totaling 6 months of treatment per patient. All patients will receive the medication at their usual dose and both formulations to assess tolerability and acceptance.
The present randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate the relationship between gene expression profiling and the response to a precision diet compared to a personalized Mediterranean-style diet (control diet) in metabolically healthy individuals with overweight and obesity. Compared to the control diet, the precision diet is expected to increase adherence to dietary recommendations (resulting in weight loss and maintenance). In addition, we postulate that the precision diet will lead to greater lifestyle changes, improving long-term well-being and health in people with overweight and obesity.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect on airway inflammation and JAK1-associated signalling pathways of AZD4604 compared with placebo in participants with moderate-to-severe asthma. Study details include: - The study duration for each participant will be approximately 10 weeks. - The duration of IMP administration will be approximately 4 weeks.
Prevention is essential for reducing cancer-related mortality. However, people with mental ill-health often face difficulties in accessing cancer prevention services. The EU-funded CO-CAPTAIN project aims to co-adapt and implement the Patient Navigation Model for primary cancer prevention in this underserved population. This evidence-based and patient-centred intervention aims to support patient empowerment through removal of systemic barriers, provide social support and promote timely access to primary prevention services.
This is a randomized, parallel, double-blind clinical trial. The main objective is to compare the efficacy of strength training, multimodal exercise with non-specific exercises and a control group on cognitive functionality and physical composition in subjects over 65 years of age with mild or non existent cognitive impairment currently receiving occupational therapy. The intervention in both groups will be carried out for 30 weeks, with three weekly sessions. Two evaluations will be performed, one pre-intervention and one post-intervention. Cognitive Functionality (Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MOCA) and Lawton and Brody Scale), Sleep quality (Athens insomnia scale and Pittsburgh sleep quality index), physical functionality (Timed up and go (TUG), chair stand test and hand grip test and Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB)), body composition (Body fat %, skeletal muscle index (SMI), appendicular skeletal muscle (ASM), waist circumference, waist hip ratio, body weight, body mass index (BMI)) will be evaluated.
Zinc homeostasis could play a role in advanced chronic liver disease (cACLD) and its supplementation has been linked with improvement in liver function, decrease of hepatic complications and reduction in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) incidence. cACLD encompasses a heterogeneous group of patients with a variable risk of clinically significant portal hypertension (CSPH) and clinical events. The ANTICIPATE model is a validated model for stratifying these risks. Our aim is to demonstrate that the administration of zinc can reduce the rate and risk of presenting clinical events (first decompensation, HCC, death and liver transplantation). This study protocol describes an ongoing phase III, national, multicentre, randomized, double-blind clinical trial that will enroll 300 patients to receive either the trial treatment (zinc acexamate) or placebo. An inclusion period of 42 months is planned, with a minimal duration of follow up of 2 years. Our principal hypothesis is that zinc could modify the natural history of cACLD patients, with an overall improvement in prognosis
The aim of this observational study is to investigate the complications associated with peripheral venous catheterization based on whether a correct or incorrect catheter was used according to a clinical algorithm in patients admitted to an acute care unit. The main question it seeks to answer is: • Are there fewer complications associated with catheterization when a correct catheter choice is made? Data from patients admitted to the acute care units of the sponsoring study center will be reviewed.
