There are about 36429 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in France. 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 main purpose of this study is to determine if retatrutide can significantly lower the incidence of serious heart-related complications or prevent the worsening of kidney function. The trial will enroll adults with body mass index 27 kg/m^2 or higher and Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease and/or chronic kidney disease.
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID) are part the multimodal strategy in pain management after surgery. However, major concerns are raised in cardiac surgery given the potential side effects of NSAID with more bleeding and acute kidney injury. The investigators hypothesized that NSAID are safe in the early postoperative course after cardiac surgery with respect to contraindication.
The goal of this prospective, randomized, unblinded, single-centre, interventional study is to assess the effectiveness of standard of care with Cureety, compared to standard of care alone, to reduce the number of all telephone calls during the first 4 months of oral or intravenous cancer treatment for patients older than 18 years of age, initiating oral or intravenous cancer treatment at the Centre Hospitalier de Bligny. Patients initiating either oral or intravenous chemotherapy for cancer will be randomly allocated in a 1:1 ratio to either: - In-person care alone (Standard of care group). - In-person care with Cureety telemonitoring (Standard of care with Cureety group). Participants will: - be monitored with digital application Cureety (Standard of care with Cureety group) - fill out quality of life questionnaire (baseline, 2 months, 4 months) - fill out satisfaction questionnaire (2 months, 4 months) - have the ongoing and incoming phone calls logged (duration and type)
The objective is to evaluate the effect of a nutritional prevention program associated with the consumption of "Primevère margarine" on the quality of life of women at risk of cardiovascular disease after 10 group coaching sessions in nutrition and physical activity.
FEGALA is a comparative, multicenter, randomized, prospective, open-label study comparing the results observed at 3 months (± 15 days) on the EORTC QLQ-C30 scale in a group of patients with metastatic cancer followed on an outpatient basis and benefiting from the CONTINUUM+ CONNECT solution (with or without nursing support at home) versus comparable patients benefiting from conventional monitoring.
Biofilm is a microstructure organised into aggregates of microbiological species within a polymeric matrix. As early as the 2000s, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recognised the possible role of the biofilm lining endotracheal endotracheal tubes in the development of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) , the most common infection in intensive care, with a high morbidity and mortality rate and a significant increase in hospital costs. Targeting biofilm therefore now appears to be a new area of interest for limiting the risk of VAP, and this rationale has led to the development of an intraluminal for abrading biofilm deposited on the inside of the intubation probe . Evaluation of this type of strategy nevertheless justifies the introduction of more precise methods for characterisation of the biofilm. To this end, the investigator carried out an initial clinical study describing the biofilm on intubation probes, BIOPAVIR 1, showing the existence of several biofilm structures, each associated with a specific microbiological signature. Several limitations including a lack of power due to an insufficient number of patients and the use of number of patients, and the use of a confocal microscopy technique with poor axial without the possibility of acquiring metabolic images of the biofilm. Based on the previous description of biofilm by optical coherence tomography (OCT), and a recent experience with an optimised form of high-resolution OCT, called full-field OCT, the investigator hypothesise that full-field OCT will allow more accurate characterisation of biofilm, due to its high spatial resolution and its potential ability to capture metabolic activity in the biofilm BIOPAVIR 2 proposes to use the performance of full-field OCT to better characterise the biofilm lining endotracheal tubes in patients undergoing mechanical ventilation in intensive care units. This project represents a first step towards understanding the link between the development of biofilm on intubation and the occurrence of VAP
The genu pectoral position is a surgical position used for spine surgery. This surgical position will lead to physiological hemodynamic and respiratory changes during the procedure. The knee-pectoral position notably induces an increase in CRF and improves pulmonary ventilation/perfusion ratios. On the other hand, it has been shown that it is accompanied by a reduction in cardiac output of approximately 15% Protective perioperative ventilation including a tidal volume between 6 and 8 ml/kg of theoretical ideal weight, PEEP and alveolar recruitment maneuvers is applied in the operating room to reduce postoperative pulmonary complications. The application of high PEEP and the performance of recruitment maneuvers induce arterial hypotension through changes in intra- and transpulmonary pressures. However, investigators hypothesize that the deleterious hemodynamic effects of PEEP seem to counterbalance its beneficial respiratory effects in this particular position. The combination of the effects of the knee-pectoral position and protective ventilation could be potentiated and be the cause of the sometimes severe arterial hypotension observed in clinical practice. Since this position improves pulmonary ventilation perfusion ratios, the investigators hypothesized that a lower PEEP and the elimination of intraoperative recruitment maneuvers could be beneficial from a hemodynamic point of view without being deleterious in terms of perioperative pulmonary complications. An exploratory study was carried out at the CAEN University Hospital in 2021 under the name PEEP POSTURE (CLERS Agreement No. 2198 of February 17, 2021) on 90 patients aiming to collect hemodynamic and respiratory parameters in 3 surgical positions: supine decubitus, ventral decubitus , pectoral genu. No difference was found in the evolution of respiratory compliance. On the other hand, a significant drop in SBP, DBP and MAP in the pectoral position was shown compared to the supine group as well as greater vascular filling. The investigators therefore hypothesize that a reduction in PEEP and optimization of vascular filling could help reduce the adverse effects on blood pressure linked to the surgical position.
The incidence of cognitive and neuromotor impairment caused by strokes has become a growing challenge. The patient's journey to recovery in the healthcare system involves multiple phases, spanning from initial hospitalization to in-patient and out-patient rehabilitation, finally leading to the patient's return to home. The access to stroke units and rehabilitation varies within Europe. Unfortunately, not everyone has access to rehabilitation programs, and the benefits derived from these programs often decline after hospital discharge. Currently, the support of the patient is organized in a rather fragmented way, and informal care sometimes places a severe burden requiring dedicated support in the patient's social environment. The PHRASE project proposes to deploy rehabilitation technology such as the Rehabilitation Gaming System (RGS) to instil and support a virtuous cycle of stroke patients' recovery in the at-home setting. RGS is an effective advanced digital tool for rehabilitation programs that uses Augmented Reality (AR)- and Virtual Reality (VR)-based gamified training grounded on neuroscientific principles, that has been shown to promote cognitive and motor recovery after a stroke at the clinic and home. There are many dedicated cognitive therapies, but most rehabilitation outcomes are mostly limited to the task trained and do not extend to day-to-day function or remain unconvincing. Based on recent literature, the PHRASE RGS-based system can provide an effective tool to address cognitive impairment using VR-based interventions. In a previous study, the neuropsychological test battery was compiled by the neuropsychologist and covered four cognitive domains: 1. basic attention, 2. memory (short-term memory), 3. visuospatial memory, and 4. executive function. All these functions were tested using VR-based tasks. The conclusion of this study confirms the possibility of addressing cognitive impairment effectively using VR-based interventions when properly mapped with clinical scales. The validation of the PHRASE system with post-stroke patients is needed to strengthen its usefulness and effectiveness for cognitive rehabilitation at home. For this, a feasibility study will be conducted to measure its usability, adherence, acceptance, and the user's experience. The investigators will also explore the effectiveness of the PHRASE system in improving cognitive function (attention, memory, executive function) after stroke. Participants: stroke patients at different time points after stroke (acute, subacute, and chronic), aged over 18 years. The participants will integrate the PHRASE technology into their daily routines in parallel to their regular neurorehabilitation treatment for 6 weeks.
In this study, the investigators will examine the effect of manual therapy on the thoracic spine and its impact on the muscular strength gain of the thoracic extensors. Treatment with manual therapy, as described by Maitland, consists of a specific mobilization of the thoracic spine in the postero-anterior direction on the transverse and spiny processes of the thoracic vertebrae. To ensure the relevance of the measures, and to better control the occurrence of biases inherent to the practice of manual therapy, the investigators constituted three distinct groups: an intervention group, a control group and a group without intervention. In short, this methodology will allow us to explore in detail the effects of specific spinal mobilization on motor control, while taking into account placebo response elements and natural variations in the results
Several risk factors for chronic postoperative pain have been identified. A series of studies have shown that administrating intraoperatively a high dose of Remifentanil is associated with an increased incidence of CPSP. These findings highlight a risk factor for CPSP that the anaesthetist can influence on, but they however remain limited to remifentanil. To this day, no study have attempted to evaluate the existence of such an association between the incidence of CPSP and the intraoperative administration of sufentanil doses. Improved knowledge of the long-term nociceptive impact of intraoperative sufentanil administration would enable better therapeutic adaptation according to each patient's risk. In the field of CPSP, non-major abdominal surgeries remain poorly studied. This is due to their lower risk of CPSP than other surgeries such as orthopaedic, mammary or thoracic surgery. Nevertheless, they constitute a large number of daily surgical procedures. The estimated incidence of CPSP in non-major abdominal surgery appears in several studies to be between 15 and 20% The aim of this study is to evaluate the correlation between the intraoperative administration of sufentanil doses and the incidence of CPSP at 3 months in patients undergoing non-major scheduled abdominal surgery.
