There are about 1183 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Indonesia. 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.
Sepsis is a clinical syndrome which infection trigger systemic inflammatory response. Uncontrolled inflammatory process leads to multiple organ dysfunction and cause early mortality in severe sepsis. Unfractionated heparin is an anticoagulant that widely used either for DVT prophylaxis or treatment of disseminated intravascular coagulation. Heparin also have an anti-inflammatory effect through downregulates nuclear factor kappa B and tumor necrosis factor alpha. Aim of this study is to determine effects of low dose unfractionated heparin treatment on inflammation in severe sepsis patient.
WHO recommends to take TB drugs while fasting: if TB drugs are taken with food, perhaps drug concentrations are too low; on the other hand: if this is not tolerated, drugs could also be taken with food. Do lower drug concentrations - with improved adherence to therapy - outweigh the disadvantage of lower drug blood concentrations over time? How exactly do the drug concentrations over time (pharmacokinetics) compare between fasting and fed conditions, especially in the early stage of TB treatment when patients are relatively sick, and relatively poorly tolerate TB drugs?
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of enhanced glycemic monitoring of diabetes upon diabetes glycaemic control during tuberculosis treatment in tuberculosis- diabetes patients.
NIDIAG is an international collaboration on integrated diagnosis-treatment platforms, funded by the European Commission (EC). NIDIAG aims to develop an improved, patient-centred system for delivering primary health care in resource-constrained settings. NIDIAG will investigate three clinical syndromes, namely (i) persistent digestive disorders, (ii) persistent fever and (iii) neurological disorders, due to neglected tropical diseases (NTDs). The current study focuses on persistent digestive disorders, which are defined as diarrhoea or abdominal pain that last for at least 2 weeks. While acute diarrhoea has been studied globally, few research activities have focused on the epidemiology, diagnosis and treatment of long-lasting diarrhoeal episodes (2 weeks and longer) in the tropics. The spectrum of possibly involved pathogens includes more than 30 bacterial, parasitic and viral infectious agents. This lack of data may be explained by the fact that people suffering from NTDs might only seek care at a late stage of the disease. Furthermore, health systems in affected regions are often weak and their primary health-care centres are often under-staffed and lack essential diagnostic equipment. The hypothesis of this study is that development of an evidence-based syndromic approach can lead to better diagnosis and management of NTDs in patients with persistent digestive disorders. The study will be carried out in two West African countries (Côte d'Ivoire and Mali) and in two Asian countries (Indonesia and Nepal). The study will follow a "case-control" design and patients and controls will be prospectively enrolled. In order to address the knowledge gaps, three specific objectives will be pursued. First, the contribution of NTDs to the 'persistent digestive disorders syndrome' will be assessed. Second, the value of clinical features and rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs) for the diagnosis of target NTDs that give rise to persistent digestive disorders will be determined. Third, the clinical response to standard empiric and targeted treatment of several NTDs in patients with persistent digestive disorders will be evaluated. These objectives will provide a long-term benefit for the communities by improving the clinical decision-making process for the target NTDs and thus, better diagnostic work-up and patient management can be achieved in the study countries and other similar resource-constrained countries
Trans-radial approach (TRA) has becoming popular and widely adopted over the last decade. However, radial artery occlusion (RAO) continues to be one of the limitation of trans-radial access and potentially limits the radial artery as an access site in the future. Several strategies have been used to decrease the incidence of RAO including the use of anticoagulation, maintenance of patency during hemostasis, or shortening the duration of compression. Currently, there is no data whether vasoactive pharmacological therapy such as nitroglycerin administered intra-arterially at the end of the procedure may reduce the incidence of RAO. It is hypothesized that the addition of nitroglycerin (nitric oxide donor) at the end of a TRA procedure may reduce the incidence of RAO.
In this study the investigators propose to evaluate the performance of several G6PD testing platforms.
