There are about 173942 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in United States. 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.
Fruit and vegetable (FV) intake decrease the risk of type 2 diabetes (T2D) and is important for T2D management but is difficult to achieve in adequate amounts for those with a low- income. Produce Prescription (PPR) projects are an intervention aligned with the social determinants of health that help individuals with a low-income purchase FV by providing an incentive. The impacts of PPR projects on populations with T2D and a low-income is less understood. The Multi-level evaluation of Produce Prescription Projects on type 2 diabetes- related outcomes: A pathway to policy change by addressing social determinants of health study will determine the impact of PPR projects on hemo-globin A1c (HbA1c; primary outcome), fruit and vegetable intake (FVI), food security, and related behaviors among a diverse sample of PPR participants diagnosed with T2D and low-income (Aim 1), and will conduct a cost and cost-effective analysis of PPR projects (Aim 2), and a mixed methods process evaluation to understand feasibility and best practices for PPR projects for people with/at risk for T2D (Aim 3). We hypothesize that PPR participants will see greater declines in HbA1c and improvements in other health and food-related behaviors, compared to the Standard of Care. We will recruit five GusNIP PPR projects, whose healthcare partners serve patients with T2D, and who have participating and matched non-participating control populations. We will collect data at baseline and post-intervention using validated, survey modules, clinical measures, and cost data. Five types of data will be used for this project: 1.Health and healthcare utilization data from the EHR or point-of-care, 2.Participant survey data, 3.Qualitative data, 4.Program cost data (NOT human subjects), and 5.Process data (NOT human subjects). Information extracted from medical records includes HbA1c, weight, and blood pressure and will be collected at 2 time points (months 0,6), following their standard of care protocols. Staff will also extract healthcare utilization data (e.g., #primary care and #ER visits) from the EHR at each of site. Primary analyses will use an intention to treat strategy. Analysis will include a linear mixed-effect model to the HbA1c with an interaction between group and time to examine whether there is a difference in HbA1c trajectories between intervention and control groups. Similar models will be used to determine impact on each of the secondary outcomes (e.g., healthcare utilization, BMI).
The following study aims to assess the efficacy of the game-based digital therapeutic, GuessWhat, in improving adaptive socialization skills in children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). GuessWhat is a mobile application (available for free for iOS and Android) which contains a suite of games: pro-social charades, emotion guessing, and quiz. Participant families will use their personal smartphones to download the app and play it with their child according to a predetermined regimen.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if access to a diabetes coach improves quality of life (QOL) for families of children with newly diagnosed type 1 diabetes. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Determine if there are beneficial effects on diabetes-related QOL at the end of the 6-month intervention. 2. Determine if potential beneficial effects persist beyond completion of the support intervention, as measured by diabetes-related QOL at 12 months and 24 months following diagnosis Participants assigned to the intervention group will have access to a diabetes coach for 6 months following type 1 diabetes diagnosis. They will be compared to participants who are assigned to the control group and are receiving usual care.
The goal of this clinical trial is to assess whether the presence of a certified therapy dog during dental procedures that require an injection reduces anxiety and improves behavior in pediatric dental patients. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Does the presence of a certified therapy dog during dental procedure requiring an injection reduce anxiety and improve behavior in pediatric dental patients? - How do the parents of pediatric dental patients who participate in the study view the use of a certified therapy dog in their child's treatment? - Does the presence of a certified therapy dog result in different concentrations of microbes in the treatment room? All participants will receive standard of care. Researchers will compare the group with a therapy dog present to a group who does not have a therapy dog present to see if heart rate, oxygen saturation, percentage of nitrous oxide administered, and Frankl scores differ between the groups.
The purpose of this pragmatic study is to evaluate the safety, performance and effectiveness of the VARIPULSE catheter technology used in combination with the TRUPULSE™ Generator, and the compatible EAM system (Carto 3D) to treat patients with atrial fibrillation and related arrhythmias during clinically-indicated ablation procedures.
The purpose of this document is to validate the clinical accuracy of the TIMMY3 thermometry module, integrated into host device CVSM, according to ISO 80601-2-56:2017 + A1 2018.
This research will involve a prospective study on infection rates after grade 1 or 2 open fractures in the skeletally immature pediatric population. There will be 3 arms: one dose intravenous cefazolin, 24 hours intravenous cefazolin, and 24 hours intravenous cefazolin plus 5 days of oral cephalexin.
This study follows an observational prospective cohort design. Women with fetal structural anomalies are routinely offered diagnostic testing with chorionic villus sampling or amniocentesis, with analysis for chromosomal analysis using karyotype or microarray analysis. Women in whom such testing does not explain the fetal phenotype, or in whom a genetic disease is strongly suggested based on the phenotype or a pattern of recurrent anomalies, will be offered exome sequencing (ES) and/or genome sequencing (GS) through the UCSF CLIA certified Genomic Medicine Laboratory. In advance of study enrollment, patients have been counseled regarding the structural anomalies in the fetus and offered pregnancy termination. The sequencing results for on-going pregnancies have a turnaround time of 2-4 weeks, and in the majority of cases are available after decisions have been made regarding continuation or termination of pregnancy. Patients who decline diagnostic testing but who have a prenatally identified anomaly may be offered the option of testing on umbilical cord blood at delivery or on the placenta or other products of conception after a stillbirth or pregnancy termination. The project is exploratory in nature, with the ultimate goal of contributing to a growing body of phenotypic data and understanding how providers and patients utilize genomic (either exome or genome) sequencing results during pregnancy.
The purpose of this clinical study is to compare the use of an essential oil inhalation patch in medical surgical nurses on perceived burn-out and stress. The main question is can essential oil inhalation patches decrease perceived burn-out and stress. Participants will - Take part in the study over 30 days, alternating weeks, resulting in each participant using six patches over six shifts. - Complete anonymous Perceived Stress Survey (PSS) before the study begins and at the conclusion of the study. - Participants will also complete a (different) survey after two weeks.
Single site evidence-based implementation of a mHealth application for remote patient monitoring for pediatric patients ready to wean from tube feedings (TFs). The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the CHAMP® ("CHAMP App") software platforms' expansion into TF weaning through Children's Mercy (CM) Kansas City's interdisciplinary feeding team (IDC). The investigators will use the current standard of care rates of tube weaning success, time to weaning, and healthcare team communication to evaluate the change after the implementation of the evidence-based CHAMP App. For equipoise of access, the study team will provide access in this pre-post design for parent/legally authorized representative (LAR)- child family access and use the CHAMP App software platform as soon as possible.
