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.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test the efficacy of an app-based program in reducing anxiety and exploring associated changes in brain activity.
The current study is a non-interventional long-term safety follow-up of the subjects who completed STARLIGHT, in accordance with FDA guidance on recipients of human gene therapy products.
The purpose of this study is to determine how soon ureteral stents can be safely removed following surgery.
The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability BIIB059 (litifilimab) in participants who completed the parent study 230LE301 (NCT05531565) with active subacute CLE and/or chronic CLE with or without systemic manifestations and refractory and/or intolerant to antimalarial therapy. The secondary objectives of the study are to evaluate the long-term effect of litifilimab on disease activity and the effect of litifilimab in preventing disease damage in participants with active subacute CLE and/or chronic CLE with or without systemic manifestations and refractory and/or intolerant to antimalarials; to evaluate the long-term effect of litifilimab on preventing lupus flare in participants with CLE with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE); to assess long-term use of oral corticosteroid (OCS) in participants receiving litifilimab treatment; to assess the impact of litifilimab on participant-reported health-related quality of life (HRQoL); to evaluate long-term effect of litifilimab on laboratory parameters; to evaluate the immunogenicity and pharmacokinetics (PK) of litifilimab.
The purpose of this research study is to evaluate the ideal drain placement in patients undergoing abdominoplasty or panniculectomy. There are currently no patient reported outcome measurements on ideal drain placement and this study aims to collect objective and patient reported measures to standardize ideal drain placement. In this study a medially and laterally placed drain will be compared to each other in each study participant. In this study subject will have two drains. One will be lateral and one medial. The drains will be secured and dressed in the same manner. At subjects planned post-operative visits, subjects will be asked to complete surveys to evaluate their experience with the drains. This study will not require additional clinic visits for study purposes.
The purpose of this study is to investigate a specific approach to patient care called a time-limited trial (TLT). This approach is sometimes used for people who develop critical illness and are cared for in an intensive care unit (ICU). A time-limited trial is a plan made together by medical teams, patients with critical illness (if they can take part), and their families or other important people helping to make their healthcare decisions. A time-limited trial starts with a discussion of the patient's goals and wishes. Then, a plan is made to use ICU treatments for a set period of time to give the patient the chance to recover. After this time, the patient's response to treatment will be reviewed to help guide what to do next. Medical teams consider this kind of plan when it is not clear if a patient can recover to a quality of life that is acceptable to him or her. With a time-limited trial, patients, families, and medical teams experience this uncertainty together. The main goal of this study is to find the best way to use TLTs for patients in the ICU who have trouble breathing and need mechanical ventilation to help them breathe. The hypothesis is that optimal time-limited trial delivery will reduce the time patients with acute respiratory failure spend in the ICU and will improve the intensive care unit experiences for their families and clinicians.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the acceptability, feasibility, and effectiveness of smoke-free housing policy implementation in Permanent Supportive Housing communities. The main objective of this study is to identify and refine adaptations for a smoke-free housing implementation framework that incorporates behavioral health support and meets the needs of residents living in Permanent Supportive Housing.
Study Significance: This proposed investigation is designed to examine the feasibility of an exercise-based intervention to reduce frailty in people living with MS. The proposed research will be the first to establish the feasibility of targeting frailty in pwMS and will begin to examine the dynamic nature of frailty in MS. These advances will pave the way for planned prospective studies toward effective targets for diagnostics, and rehabilitation of frailty in MS.
The Department of Physical Therapy in conjunction with the Comprehensive Stroke Center at the Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC) seeks support for developing an evidence-based approach for the mobilization of patients within the first 24 hours of admission for an acute stroke and for increasing the frequency and intensity of acute PT services while inpatient. This evidence will prepare physical therapists and guide practice in the delivery of acute stroke mobilization in the hospital setting to optimize length of stay, disposition planning, and enhance long term recovery outcomes. This research hopes to challenge the clinical paradigm regarding the possibility of decreased functional outcomes with early mobilization post stroke. The investigators acknowledge that acute stroke patients may not be able to tolerate an extensive early mobility program but may benefit from shorter more frequent sessions of therapy early in their recovery. Throughout the literature, there are clinical practice guidelines for both the inpatient rehabilitation and outpatient therapy sectors and post stroke recovery. Little is known about the contribution of therapy services in the acute hospital setting and therapy's impact on long term functional gains. The goal of this project is to determine the appropriate dosage of post stroke mobility in the acute care hospital setting.
Congenital Portosystemic Shunt (CPSS) is a rare condition important by the multiplicity and severity of associated complications. CPSS is venous anomaly in which blood coming from the intestines only partially passes through the liver. This leads to the accumulation of potentially toxic factors that cause systemic effects. Complications vary among the individuals, and currently, it is challenging to predict which individuals will develop severe complications. The IRCPSS registry is established with the aim of centralizing detailed clinical follow-up and biological information from participants around the world who suffer from Congenital Portosystemic Shunt (CPSS). A multidisciplinary consortium of experts is collaborating to enhance our understanding of the prevalence, natural history, individual risks, and physiopathology of the disease through the IRCPSS registry.
