This study will be a Phase 1, single-center, open-label, randomized cross-over study to evaluate the PK of a new AP003 device which delivers two sprays of 4 mg naloxone hydrochloride intranasally.
There is a drug-related death crisis in Scotland. The majority of these deaths have involved the misuse of opiates (e.g. heroin) and benzodiazepines (e.g. valium) which cause an individual to stop breathing. The Advanced Respiratory Monitoring Events in Drug Toxicity (ARM-ED) study is a study investigating whether a wearable sensor can help detect problems with breathing in patients who have had drugs or medications that may cause this effect. The study will span a year and will study two groups of patients - those who attend with actual or expected respiratory depression secondary to acute drug toxicity and individuals who have undergone procedural sedation and analgaesia in the Emergency Department.
There is a drug-related death crisis in Scotland. This study aims to collaborate with Public Health Scotland in order to assess the feasibility of introducing a surveillance system to the Emergency Department to highlight illicit drug-related attendances. This will utilise both clinical data and toxiclogical analysis of anonymised samples. The data will inform of prevalence, trend data and utcome of ED patients attending with acute illict drug toxicity.
A pilot injection-setting targeted peer-driven intervention to reduce HIV and hepatitis C virus transmission and overdose risk behaviors among people who inject drugs (PWID).
Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest is a leading cause of death worldwide and patient outcome vary substantially throughout regions suggesting further evaluation and potential for improvement.When focussing on subgroups of OHCA, data in certain areas remains scarce and the need of revised guidelines is evident. Furthermore, enhanced knowledge on these varieties of OHCA's apply to substantial number of patients, also among vulnerable populations. The Danish Emergency Medical System introduced a nationwide registry of electronic medical reports in 2016. This report system allows electronic searches and thereby the opportunity to identify subgroups of OHCA's. Thus, this novel reporting enables the evaluation of new characteristics of cardiac arrests of non-cardiac origin, in cases where an automated external defibrillator (AED) is retrieved but did not recommend defibrillation and finally in OHCA related to foreign body obstruction. With the advantages of artificial intelligence, this project will enhance and strengthen data from the Danish Cardiac Arrest Registry. It may substitute the manual validation of the around 9000 cases per year in Denmark. Further, it proposes improvement of quality and development of observational health research.
Propofol is one of the most commonly used anesthetics in the world. However, the dose-response of propofol was remarkable variety. Herein, this study aims to investigate the possible association of gene polymorphism and propofol susceptibility, and to research more precise infusion model of this drug.
Registry intended to provide a data repository and reporting infrastructure for the surveillance of CytoSorb device use in real-world critical care settings, and to serve as an objective, comprehensive, and scientifically-based resource to measure and improve the quality of patient care
The purpose of the Peer Intervention to Link Overdose Survivors to Treatment (PILOT) study is to improve outcomes for individuals after surviving an overdose involving opioids. This study will be comparing the enhanced peer intervention known as PILOT for overdose survivors with treatment as usual (TAU) provided in the Emergency Department.
