There are about 515 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Tunisia. 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 study assesses the potential of lung ultrasonography to diagnose heart failure.
For symptomatic gall bladder disorders (cholelithiasis and cholecystitis), laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) has been considered as the gold standard treatment. However, these minimally invasive technique is associated with acute moderate pain during the 24 hours postoperative, which is routinely managed using opioids. The transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block has been used as part of a multimodal analgesia strategy. Besides, Wang et al found that TAP block is more effective than a conventional pain control, but not significatively different from another local incisional pain control that is port site infiltration.So, the aim of this study, is to compare the analgesic efficacy and safety of trocar-site infiltration with ropivacaine with ultrasound-guided TAP block following laparoscopic cholecystectomy when used as part of multimodal analgesia.
A faster emergence from general anesthesia has a double medico-economic impact by reducing the risks of complications and optimizing the performance of surgical units. No drug has been retained for its ability to actively accelerate anesthetic emergence by antagonizing hypnotics. Thus, the aim of this study was to examine the effect of caffeine on the time to emerge from sevoflurane anesthesia for laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
Acute soft tissues injuries are a common complaint for emergency department (ED) visit. RICE and Topical non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are frequently used to reduce pain and inflammation. Herbal therapy is commonly used to treat pain but few studies assessed its efficacy and tolerability.
This study will be carried out by more than 30 liberal Tunisian doctors, who will submit according to the inclusion / exclusion criteria of people who will receive (free of charge) a capsule of the Nig5 product sublingually, each day. Against a control group which will be followed with the same protocol as the first but which will not receive the product. Randomization (even days: nigella group, odd days: control group)
The development of miniaturized analytical technologies has facilitated the gradual decentralization of part of the laboratory examinations to the patient. In addition, investigators are currently seeing the development of tools for non-invasive measurement of certain biological parameters. Thanks to their ease of use, results are obtained almost immediately and with good performance. These "rapid" tests or techniques should, in theory, reduce the time taken to take charge of patients, particularly in emergencies or in critical situations where the therapeutic decision should be as rapid and efficient as possible. These means, by their ease and speed of results, could be associated with the clinical examination of the practitioner to increase his diagnostic performance.
The investigators evaluate the effects of High-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) in association with prone in patients with Covid-19 severe ARF.
Noble metals such as gold and silver have been appreciated for millennia not only for their beauty but also for their ability to fight diseases. Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) have been employed as chemical drugs thanks to their unique physiochemical and chemical properties as well as biological features, such as anti-inflammatory, anti-angiogenesis, antiplatelet, antifungal, anti-cancer and antibacterial activities I
The efficacy and safety of Solver Pen (prototype number X92001704) is evaluated in this randomized, open label, controlled, investigator-blinded, comparative clinical trial in 76 patients. Subjects are treated with either the test medical device (Solver Pen) or the comparator (Loceryl, 5% amorolfine), respectively, for a period of 90 days. The primary objective of the investigation is the increase of percentage of healthy surface on the great toenail at study end versus baseline, as evaluated by a blinded investigator. Patients are followed up for a period of 90 days, with visits at D0 (baseline), D30, D60 and D90, respectively.
The purpose of the SIDI study is to follow, few months after discharge from the hospital, the patients admitted to the 3 emergency departments in Tunisia for acute dyspnea and to determine the proportion and the factors favoring rehospitalization and death.
