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 purpose of this study is to look at how mindfulness-informed emotional intelligence training may influence how participants think, feel, and act.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test an approach to improve care for pregnant and post-partum patients with high blood pressure. The study participants are providers and staff in prenatal care clinics, and the condition of interest is severe hypertension. The research questions are: 1. Does the ACHIEVE intervention increase the quality and accuracy of measuring patient blood pressure? 2. Does the ACHIEVE intervention increase the documentation of delivery of patient education on hypertension? 3. Does the ACHIEVE intervention result in better recognition and treatment of severe hypertension during practice sessions (simulations)? 4. Does the ACHIEVE intervention result in better recognition and treatment of severe hypertension for patients who come to the clinic? Participants from 20 clinics in North Carolina will work with an ACHIEVE Nurse Coordinator who will deliver training, coaching, and simulations. Three groups of clinics will be phased into Active Implementation every six months. The study team will examine data collected before, during, and after the intervention to see if the results show improvement.
The purpose of the current study is to perform a unified, homogeneous data collection protocol that includes a large cohort of patients undergoing different treatment options for Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) as an avenue for investigating optimal biomarkers for depression treatments on an individual patient level.
The study will collect a cross-sectional dataset of 4000 people across the US from diverse racial/ethnic groups who are either 1) healthy, or 2) belong in one of the three stages of diabetes severity (pre-diabetes/diet controlled, oral medication and/or non-insulin-injectable medication controlled, or insulin dependent), forming a total of four groups of patients. Clinical data (social determinants of health surveys, continuous glucose monitoring data, biomarkers, genetic data, retinal imaging, cognitive testing, etc.) will be collected. The purpose of this project is data generation to allow future creation of artificial intelligence/machine learning (AI/ML) algorithms aimed at defining disease trajectories and underlying genetic links in different racial/ethnic cohorts. A smaller subgroup of participants will be invited to come for a follow-up visit in year 4 of the project (longitudinal arm of the study). Data will be placed in an open-source repository and samples will be sent to the study sample repository and used for future research.
This research is studying how to help increase uptake of and engagement in formal Diabetes Prevention Programs to improve healthy behaviors among adults with pre diabetes to reduce risk of getting diabetes. This project will compare the Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP) to participating in the DPP program plus two extra pieces (INSPIRA). The 2 additional pieces in the DPP plus program includes getting matched with someone else in the program to provide each other support along with a chance to earn healthy food vouchers. Eligible participants will be randomized to one of the two groups and be asked to participate for approximately 6 months.
The goal of this study is to evaluate a culturally grounded training curriculum, First Face for Mental Health, in Tribal communities, using a waitlist controlled randomized trial design. This curriculum will train Tribal community members in how to respond to youth and adults experiencing mental health crises and serve as a bridge between these individuals and the help they need. The main questions the study aims to answer are: - Does the training increase mental health knowledge, capacity and ability to respond to mental health situations, perceived competence to respond, and actual responsive actions among trainees? - Does the training decrease mental health stigmatizing attitudes and increase cultural identity among trainees? Participants will complete surveys before and after completing the First Face training, across five time points over the course of two years. Half of the participants will be randomized to receive the training initially, and half will receive it six months later. Researchers will compare the two groups to examine whether the trainees demonstrate changes in the outcomes of interest compared to the waitlist control group during the first six months, and whether both groups demonstrate sustained changes after the first six months (i.e., once both groups have received training).
This quality improvement project aims to help outpatient mental health teams, known as Behavioral Health Interdisciplinary Program (BHIP) teams, adopt more collaborative care practices (consistent with the collaborative chronic care model or CCM). The investigators therefore aim to use two different implementation strategies -- centralized technical assistance and implementation facilitation -- to align BHIP teams' care practices more closely with the principles of the CCM.
This study aims to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of arthroscopic rotator cuff repair augmented with the BioBrace® Implant vs. arthroscopic rotator cuff repair alone in subjects requiring surgical intervention for a full-thickness rotator cuff tear.
The objectives of this study are to (1) determine the effects of neuromodulation techniques on mobility in persons with chronic SCI, as measured by subjective and objective measures, and (2) to determine the optimal combination of techniques that modify mobility and movement in an individual. The neuromodulation techniques explored will be methods of electromagnetic stimulation - that is, electrical stimulation and magnetic stimulation.
The purpose of this retrospective, Post-Market Clinical Follow-Up (PMCF) study is to assess the long term performance and safety of Air Optix® Night and Day® Aqua (AONDA) contact lenses in a real-world setting when worn as 30 days of continuous wear for vision correction.
