There are about 5161 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Norway. 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 aim of the study is to compare the clinical performance of two adjunctive methods to CTG in intrapartum fetal monitoring: FBS with measurement of scalp lactate and ST analysis of the fetal ECG.
This project will investigate the Gottman 7 principle couple course (G7P) in the Norwegian setting offered at different sites and for different groups of the population. A control group of couples will serve as a baseline. The study will bring knowledge about the participants experiences with the G7P and the effectiveness of the course on improving the couple relationship.
The purpose of this randomized controlled pilot study is to test whether an in-hospital nurse-led smoking cessation intervention increases the refferal rate to healty life-centers in the municipalities. We will also describe the proportion who succeed in quitting smoking between the intervention group and the control group and obtain new knowledge about the patient and system factors of importance for participation to healty life-centers and for successful and unsuccessful smoking cessation.
This study is open to adults with a chronic inflammatory skin disease called hidradenitis suppurativa. The purpose of this study is to find out whether a medicine called spesolimab helps people with moderate to severe hidradenitis suppurativa. Participants are put into 2 groups by chance. One group takes spesolimab. The other group takes placebo. Every participant has twice the chance of being in the spesolimab group than in the placebo group. Participants get spesolimab or placebo as an infusion into a vein every week for the first 3 weeks. Afterwards, they get spesolimab or placebo as injections under the skin every 2 weeks. Placebo infusions and injections look like spesolimab infusions and injections but do not contain any medicine. Participants are treated in the study for about 3 months. During this time, they visit the study site about 9 times. After completing this part of the study, participants are offered to join another clinical study in which all participants get spesolimab. Participants who cannot join the other study, stay in this study for about 4 more months. During this time, participants do not take spesolimab nor placebo but they visit the study site 2 times to have their health checked. At study visits, doctors thoroughly check the skin of participants to count lumps (nodules) and boils (abscesses). The results between the spesolimab group and the placebo group are compared after 3 months of treatment. The doctors also regularly check the general health of the participants.
The study is an open label study on patients with Alzheimer's dementia using home based transcranial direct current (tDCS) stimulation. Aims of the study is to investigate applicability and effect of treatment.
A cross-sectional study on late effects after modern treatment in long-term survivors of head and neck cancer (HNC). Participants fill in questionnaires and participate at a one day visit at the hospital including blood sample with biomarkers, clinical examination, audiometry, oral radiological examination and oral examination. Data on patients' medical history collected from medical records including radiology images and digital radiotherapy plans.This will allow adjustments of treatment planning and improved treatment decisions for patients at risk, and improve information and follow up for future patients.
An Open label Phase II//proof of concept-study to demonstrate if percutaneous application of LTX-109 in a gel vehicle is a safe treatment of Hidradenitis suppurativa and to identify clinical response to intervention, as well to identify if covariates such as age, disease duration, smoking state and BMI influence patient reported measures.
Heads of all psychosomatic, psychiatric and psychological consultation and liaison (C&L) services in acute care hospitals across all participating countries will be contacted and asked to participate in this international cross-sectional online survey. The survey consists of questions about care structures and their utilisation that psychosomatic, psychiatric and psychological C&L services have established in acute hospitals in the context of the COVID 19 pandemic.
Movement of the Sacroiliac (SI) Joint, comparing conventional RSA with the Sectra Implant Movement analysis using a low dose CT for high accuracy measurement. A feasibility study for a future kohort study.
The rate of labor induction has been steadily increasing over the last years, both worldwide and in Norway. Norwegian women are hospitalized when prostaglandins are used to induce labor. In Denmark, a neighboring country to Norway, women have been offered outpatient induction of labor using oral misoprostol for several years. The overall aim of this study is to investigate if outpatient induction of labor is beneficial in a Norwegian setting. This includes: 1. To investigate the clinical outcomes and feasibility of inducing in an outpatient setting compared to an inpatient setting in Norway 2. To explore low-risk nulliparous women's experiences of labor induction in inpatient and outpatient settings. This is a non-randomized prospective pilot- and feasibility study, collecting data from electronical records. In addition, the study participants are invited to write a diary during the labor induction process and a questionnaire six weeks postpartum. Eligible patients include low-risk nulliparous women induced with low-dose oral misoprostol.
