There are about 9745 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Israel. 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.
A single center, single blinded, prospective validation (including extension0 study for the accuracy and safety evaluation of Neteera 130H, a novel, radar-based contact-free device for heart and respiratory rate measurements.
Open-label, single center, prospective interventional non-comparative study for CRE carriers.
This study will look at how the participants daily life is affected by their heart failure. The study will also look at the change in participants body weight from the start to the end of the study. This is to compare the effect on heart failure symptoms and on body weight in people taking semaglutide (a new medicine) to people taking "dummy" medicine. Participants will either get semaglutide or "dummy" medicine - which treatment participants get is decided by chance. Participants will need to take 1 injection once a week. The study medicine is injected with a thin needle in a skin fold in the stomach area, thigh or upper arm. During the study participants will have talks with the study staff about healthy lifestyle choices including healthy food and physical activity. The study will last for approximately 59 weeks. Participants will have 11 clinic visits and 1 phone call with the study doctor. Women: Women cannot take part if they are pregnant, breast-feeding or plan to become pregnant during the study period.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, we noticed a rise in complicated appendicitis cases presenting to our medical center. We collected objective data on all patients admitted to the surgical department with appendicitis during February 2020 - March 2020 compared to the same 2 month period in 2019, to understand the pandemic's affect on the rate of complications of acute appendicitis.
The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term effectiveness of Mavenclad® tablets, in terms of disease activity and safety, in participants with highly-active relapsing multiple sclerosis (RMS) previously participating in the MAGNIFY MS trial MS700568_0022 (NCT03364036).
Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin condition that is characterized by symptoms such as pain, itching and discomfort. This can have severe impact on the quality of life including depression, embarrassment, and social isolation. The objective of this study is to evaluate how effective risankizumab is in changing the disease symptoms in adult participants with moderate to severe psoriasis. Risankizumab is an approved drug being developed for the treatment of psoriasis. Adult participants who are prescribed risankizumab treatment according to the local label will be enrolled in this study. Approximately 125 adult participants with moderate to severe psoriasis will be enrolled at multiple sites across Israel. Participants who are prescribed to receive subcutaneous risankizumab injection by their physician according to local label will be enrolled and will be followed for approximately 2 years. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, checking for side effects, patient charts, questionnaires, and remote monitoring device (patch sensor).
Background: Physical restraint of patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) is a common practice, with estimated prevalence of 50% of all ICU patients, with and without invasive ventilation support(1). The prevalence of physical restraint varies between ICU's according to patient population (surgical, cardiac, trauma, burns and general intensive care patients). In mechanically ventilated patients, the physical restriction (tying the patient) is carried out frequently in addition to pharmacological treatment with analgesic and sedative medications, in order to prevent falling, self-inflicted injury or accidental removal of essential medical devices (tracheobronchial tubes, central venous infusions, drains, etc.) by the patient. In non-ventilated patients, physical restraint is often carried out in patients with delirium or cognitive decline, in addition to pharmacological anti -delirium therapy (1). However, physical restraint has many drawbacks, including injuries to the skin and the soft tissues, blood vessels, peripheral nerves, muscle and skeleton (2). In addition, physical restraint may exacerbate symptoms of restlessness and delirium and even increase the risk of developing post-traumatic stress disorder in these patients (3,4). Despite the high prevalence of physical restraint of ICU patients, with its disadvantages and advantages, currently there are no consensual criteria for physical restraint and the decision when and how long to use it is at the discretion of the attending physician. It is important to note that in recent years there has been a tendency to reduce the amount of sedation that mechanically ventilated patients are given, which may lead to an increase in the incidence of physical restraint of patients who are fully or partially conscious (5).
This study is open for men and women with a liver disease called nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and liver fibrosis. The purpose of the study is to find out whether a medicine called BI 456906 helps patients with NASH and liver fibrosis. The study tests 3 different doses of BI 456906 to find the dose that helps best. Participants are put into 4 groups randomly, which means by chance. There are 3 groups that each receive a different dose of BI 456906 and there is 1 group that receives placebo. BI 456906 and placebo are given as an injection under the skin once per week. The placebo injection looks like the BI 456906 injection but does not contain any medicine. Participants are in the study for a little over 1 year (60 weeks). During this time, they visit the study site several times and have some video calls in addition. At the visits, the study doctors take different measurements. To see whether the treatment works, the doctors take a very small sample of liver tissue (biopsy) from each participant at the start and at the end of the study. They also examine the liver by ultrasound and MRI. The doctors also regularly check the general health of the participants.
This is a prospective, multi-center, non-invasive, interventional, data collection study to improve the current BIS algorithm in the elderly adult population.
Device: EluNIR Ridaforolimus Eluting Coronary Stent System - (hereafter referred to as EluNIR) 2.25 mm diameter (8 mm, 12 mm, 15 mm, 17 mm, 20 mm, 24 mm, 28 mm and 33 mm length) Objectives: To further assess the safety and efficacy of the small diameter (2.25 mm) Ridaforolimus Eluting Stent - EluNIR. Subject Population: Subjects who underwent PCI for angina (stable or unstable), silent ischemia (in absence of symptoms a visually estimated target lesion diameter stenosis of ≥70%, a positive non-invasive stress test, or FFR ≤0.80 must be present), NSTEMI, and recent STEMI (>24 hours from initial presentation and stable) with attempted implantation of a 2.25 mm diameter EluNIR stent. Trial Design and Methods: This is a prospective, multi-center, single-arm, open-label clinical trial. Clinical follow-up for all patients will be performed at 30 days 6 months, and 1 year after the procedure.
