There are about 8563 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Sweden. 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.
This retrospective observational cohort study aims to describe the impact of COVID-19 in patients treated with autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) for malignant disease in terms of risk factors, morbidity, need for supportive care and mortality. All patients treated with ASCT in Sweden from 1st January 2020 until 31st December 2020 are eligible for this study. Patients who also has tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 from start of conditioning or later will be identified through the national registry of the Public Health Agency of Sweden and a systematic analysis of their medical records will be performed.
Primary Objective: - To evaluate the safety of BIVV001 in previously treated pediatric participants with hemophilia A. Secondary Objectives: - To evaluate the efficacy of BIVV001 as a prophylaxis treatment. - To evaluate the efficacy of BIVV001 in the treatment of bleeding episodes. - To evaluate BIVV001 consumption for prevention and treatment of bleeding episodes. - To evaluate the effect of BIVV001 prophylaxis on joint health outcomes. - To evaluate the effect of BIVV001 prophylaxis on Quality of Life (QoL) outcomes. - To evaluate the efficacy of BIVV001 for perioperative management. - To evaluate the safety and tolerability of BIVV001 treatment. - To assess the pharmacokinetics (PK) of BIVV001.
BACKGROUND: At Emergency Medical Dispatch (EMD) centers, Resource Constrained Situations (RCS) where there are more callers requiring an ambulance than there are available ambulances are common. At the EMD centers in Uppsala and Västmanland, patients experiencing these situations are typically assigned a low-priority response, are often elderly, and have non-specific symptoms. Machine learning techniques offer a promising but largely untested approach to assessing risks among these patients. OBJECTIVES: To establish whether the provision of machine learning-based risk scores improves the ability of dispatchers to identify patients at high risk for deterioration in RCS. DESIGN: Multi-centre, parallel-grouped, randomized, analyst-blinded trial. POPULATION: Adult patients contacting the national emergency line (112), assessed by a dispatch nurse in Uppsala or Västmanland as requiring a low-priority ambulance response, and experiencing an RCS. OUTCOMES: Primary: 1. Proportion of RCS where the first available ambulance was dispatched to the patient with the highest National Early Warning Score (NEWS) score Secondary: - Difference in composite risk score consisting of ambulance interventions, emergent transport, hospital admission, intensive care, and mortality between patients receiving immediate vs. delayed ambulance response during RCS. - Difference in NEWS between patients receiving immediate vs. delayed ambulance response during RCS. INTERVENTION: A machine learning model will estimate the risk associated with each patient involved in the RCS, and propose a patient to receive the available ambulance. In the intervention arm only, the assessment will be displayed in a user interface integrated into the dispatching system. TRIAL SIZE: 1500 RCS each consisting of multiple patients randomized 1:1 to control and intervention arms
Patients scheduled for an endoscopic submucosal dissection(ESD) in the colorectum will be randomized to the use of a traction device(consisting of an endoscopic clip with a loop of dental floss secured in the lesion to be removed, another clip will anchor the loop to adjacent bowel wall) or a standard ESD.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether fast-tracking hip fracture patients to geriatric medicine wards, as opposed to standard care at the emergency room, results in less complications and shorter hospitalization for the patients.
Background: Placement of oral implants is frequently compromised due to atrophy of the alveolar process. Lateral ridge augmentation with an autogenous bone block is frequently necessary to increase the width of the alveolar process before implant installation. However, harvesting of an autogenous bone block is associated with donor site morbidity. Consequently, bone substitutes alone or in combination with particulate autogenous bone graft are used increasingly to simplify the surgical procedure. Animal and human studies evaluating lateral ridge augmentation with Bio-Oss alone or in combination with particulate autogenous bone graft have demonstrated new bone formation and high implant survival. However, the optimal ratio of Bio-Oss and particulate autogenous bone graft for lateral ridge augmentation and long-term implant survival is unknown. Purpose: Test the H0-hypothesis of no difference in long-term implant survival, newly formed bone, volumetric stability of the graft, gained width of the alveolar process and patient satisfaction after lateral ridge augmentation with Bio-Oss alone or in combination with a diminutive amount of autogenous bone graft. Material and methods: lateral ridge augmentation will be performed in 20 adults with two different ratios of Bio-Oss and autogenous bone graft after a split mouth design. Clinical and radiological measurements will evaluate the long-term implant survival. Cone beam computer tomography (CBCT) will be obtained preoperatively, immediately postoperatively, prior to implant placement, 2 years after implant installation and 5 years after implant installation to estimate the volumetric changes of the augmented area. Moreover, the amount of newly formed bone will be estimated by histologic evaluation after implant placement. Conclusion: Long-term implant survival has never been evaluated after lateral ridge augmentation with Bio-Oss alone or in combination with a diminutive amount of autogenous bone graft.
This randomized controlled trial aim to determine the impact on renal function after treatment for infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) with stentgrafts either with active supra- or infrarenal fixation.
The main objectives of this study are to confirm the long-term safety, performance, and clinical benefits of the G7 Acetabular Shells when used with the Vivacit-E and Longevity HXLPE liners and instrumentation in primary and revision total hip arthroplasty.
The overall goal of this real-world data collection is to assess demographic, clinical characteristics and real-world effectiveness of pediatric neuroblastoma patients treated with lorlatinib through the expanded access program.
Removal of meniscal tissue is described to result in poor knee function and a significant risk for future development of osteoarthritis. Different implants have been suggested to substitute a removed meniscus. Meniscal allograft transplantation is not widely available due to costs and availability. The semitendinosus tendon is a known graft with biological properties with potential to remodel and revascularize in an intraarticular environment such as anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. The objective for this study was to investigate whether the semitendinosus tendon graft could function as a meniscal transplant.
