There are about 189 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Venezuela. 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.
Actually, Schnider and Cortinez models represent pharmacokinetics models of propofol more complete published until now. Schnider was derived from 24 healhty people, and including other covariates in addition to weight, such as age, height and lean body mass though. Schnider model should not be used in obese patients. Cortínez model was derived from 20 obese patients. The differences between both models has been founded at the initial drug distribution, that means V1 and the constant Ke0 ( pharmacokinetics factors that define the plasma-effect equilibration time). We believe that Cortinez model also could be used in No OBESE patients because is an allometric model, and one way to evaluate and to compare both pharmacokinetics models is studying the temporary course of the effect. The main objective of our study is to evaluate BIS and Cardiac Output values during propofol-induced sedation using Schnider and Cortinez models in Target Controlled infusion in non obese healthy volunteer.
Background: Worldwide, injuries from trauma represent a major public health problem. The World Health Organization (WHO) has deemed this problem as one of the most important global priorities, calling 2011-2020 the 'Decade of Action for Road Safety'. Despite this, there is little empirical data in low and middle-income countries quantifying the burden of musculoskeletal injuries. Methods: INORMUS is a global, prospective, multi-center, observational cohort study. The primary objective of the study is to determine the mortality, re-operation and infection rates of musculoskeletal trauma patients within 30 days post-hospital admission. The INORMUS study seeks to enroll 40,000 patients from low-middle income countries in Africa, Asia, and Latin America.
The primary objective of the protocol is to identify and describe observed adverse events (AEs) while on treatment with Ipilimumab for advanced melanoma in Venezuela during the study period
The purpose of this clinical study is to evaluate the safety and device performance of the Nellix® EndoVascular Aneurysm Sealing System (Nellix System) for the treatment of infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysms.
This multi-center, open-label, single-arm, Phase IIIb study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of subcutaneous RoActemra/Actemra alone or in combination with non-biologic disease modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) in rheumatoid arthritis patients in Latin America with an inadequate response to non-biologic DMARDs.
The objective of this study was to evaluate the AqueSys XEN Implant [XEN® Gel Stent (XEN45 Implant)] for the treatment of moderate primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) participants when medications have failed to control intraocular pressure (IOP). Effectiveness was evaluated by comparing medicated preoperative IOP to postoperative values. Additionally, the number of topical IOP-lowering medications at screening were compared to the number of IOP-lowering medications at 1 year.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate a methodology for detecting early forming cavities in children that is more accurate and reliable than the gold standard used by dentists around the world. The new method uses an electrical current device to detect early enamel mineral loss before it can develop into a cavity. The manual gold standard is for a dentist to probe the surfaces of the teeth with a fine pick, searching for areas of defect.
The objectives of this study are to examine the effects of chronic, (12 weeks) administration of Whey protein on HbA1c, and postprandial glucose (PPG).
This international study is a prospective noninterventional observational cohort study of patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation who are prescribed rivaroxaban under routine treatment conditions to prevent stroke or non-central nervous system systemic embolism. Patients will be followed up for 1 year or until 30 days after end of rivaroxaban therapy in case of therapy was discontinued earlier than 12 months. Serious adverse events will be followed up adequately. Laboratory values (e.g., Hb, HCT, haemoccult) should be documented for each point in time they were measured.
This study is conducted globally. The aim of this study is to describe the treatment modalities and outcomes of bleeding episodes, surgery and prophylaxis in patients with factor VII (FVII) deficiency in addition to evaluate the presence (in already treated patients) and/or the appearance of inhibiting antibodies to FVII and/or therapy-related thrombosis. Due to a Novo Nordisk commitment to the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP), Novo Nordisk receives data on treatment with activated recombinant human FVII (rFVIIa, NovoSeven®) in patients with FVII deficiency from the Seven Treatment Evaluation Registry (STER, NCT01269138). These patients can also have been treated with other haemostatics for systemic administration.
